     When we talk about teaching aids which can improve our teaching in the classrooms, now we are keen about some high-Tec teaching aids like Internet projector and some others. But traditional material—the picture which is cheap,simple,convenient and flexible has enough advantages to attract students’ attention in junior high schools.This paper classifies pictures into three types, analyzes the necessity of using pictures in junior school English classroom and explores how teachers make use of them effectively in junior middle school and how the pictures help students arouse their interest in learning English and develop their abilities such as observation,expression, memory and so on. In a word, this paper aims to provide the teachers with some advice to make pictures a valuable teaching aid and improve their teaching.
