Title  Investigation on the Elementary Students’ Affect towards  Learning English as a Foreign Language
Abstract
This study investigates Chinese elementary students’ affect towards learning English as a foreign language by adopting a questionnaire and an interview. The sample of the study consists of 31 females and 30 males from Grade Five and Grade Six in Nanjing Sujie elementary school. Results show that most current elementary students hold a positive affect towards learning English as a foreign language; however, only a few of them clearly know the purpose of learning English. The investigation also finds that students’ affect is influenced by many factors, including their teachers, parents, characteristics and themselves. This study has a great significance on improving elementary students’ English teaching. Therefore, it is obviously important to stimulate students’ inner interest. With a positive affective teaching, positive encouragement from parents and enough effort and outward from students, the effect of English learning would be in a better situation.

1 Introduction
1.1 Research Background
With the deepening research of linguistics, people come to realize that affective factors are closely related to the second language acquisition and learning. The Affective Filter Hypothesis states that there maybe exist affective disorders in the process of second language acquisition and learning which prevent learners from absorbing the language subconsciously (Krashen, 1981). Therefore, the input of language isn’t equal to the output of language and affective factors will accelerate or obstruct language learning and acquisition. With the increasing international connection and cooperation, with the deepening of the reform and opening up policy, China pays more attention to English language teaching and students start to learn English earlier. Language learning has a closer relationship with affect (Lu Jiamei, 2004). Interpersonal communication involves affect. In turn, affect also need express or convey by language to a large extent. Currently, China is running the curriculum reform of elementary education in English subject; one important aspect is just concerned about student’s affect in English learning. According to the English Curriculum Standards based on Full-time Compulsory Education (2002), affect refers to these correlative factors, including attitude, motivation, self-esteem and team spirit, which impact the process and outcome of learning. This thesis will mainly focus on the affect of students’ attitude in English learning. 小学生英语学习中情感态度的调查研究:http://www.751com.cn/yingyu/lunwen_11015.html
