Abstract—Context is an effective way for students to master English and a crucial method to stimulate their interest in learning. This paper tries to explore a teaching strategy that combines reading and writing in English based on thematic contexts through practical teaching cases. The first step is to activate students’ background information by creating thematic contexts; the second step is to integrate necessary textual information for writing around thematic contexts; the next step is to explore thematic contexts to broaden students’ reading perspectives and overcome their limitations in thinking; the last step is to apply thematic contexts to improve the comprehensive use of reading and writing skills. The reading-writing combined English instruction based on thematic contexts can achieve the goal of coordinated and high-quality development of students’ English reading and writing abilities.
Keywords—reading-writing combined English instruction, thematic contexts, reading for writing
