Abstract: In the context of the new era, amidst intensified global competition and rapid social development, China needs to cultivate talents with high comprehensive abilities. Simultaneously, the 2022 revised curriculum standards emphasize the development of students’ core competencies and the implementation of interdisciplinary thematic learning. Education is striving to break down the boundaries between disciplines and reshape the subject system. English, as a language course and foundational subject, inherently embodies rich content and strong adaptability, inevitably establishing connections and integration with other disciplines during the English learning process. Traditional primary school English education has been primarily focused on subject-specific teaching, with knowledge in different subjects fragmented and disjointed, lacking systematic organization, and sometimes artificially separated even when interconnected. Moreover, as the concept of interdisciplinary thematic teaching in primary school English is relatively new, frontline teachers and students have limited understanding of it, and many issues persist in its practical application. Therefore, conducting action research on interdisciplinary thematic teaching of primary school English by frontline teachers holds practical significance and value. Researchers have summarized the basic principles of designing interdisciplinary thematic teaching for primary school English and the steps for its implementation, reflecting on the study as a whole and providing insights into its future prospects.
