我的暑假计划英语作文初二(20篇)

Last week Chang Feng Park held a flower show. I went to visit it with my friends. I was very glad to see so many beautiful flowers in the park. I was really amazed to see a sea of colourful flowers. They told me that some rare flowers came from Taiwan.Thousands of people stopped and watched them carefully. I took many pictures there. Taiwan has always been a part of our country. I am sure sooner or later we can go there to see many more beautiful flowers. What great fun it will be.

放暑假了，为了度过一个快乐而有意义的暑假，我制定了以下计划：

一、主要学习安排

有计划的认真完成《暑假作业》，每天写六页，一个月内写完；写作文20篇，其中，记人、记事、景物描写10篇，读后感10篇，争取在网上发表5～8篇。认真练习毛笔字，每周练习三节课。

认真复习三、四年级学过的英语单词，预习五年级英语，争取把五年级单词背下来。

二、业余学习安排

每天弹琴1·5小时，把古筝七级的《战台风》与《秦桑曲》弹熟练，准备考级，争取考级成功，认真参加古筝暑期培训班，争取新学一首曲子。

复习学过的葫芦丝曲子，自学《彝家欢度火把节》《蓝色的香巴拉》与《赛马》葫芦丝曲，学巴乌2～3首曲子。争取去老师家学习3～5次，录制曲子3～5首。

三、其它

利用多媒体学习：酷6教育网的贾老师教作文、中小学课程酷6英语。我要把参加社区活动的照片与日记及时上传、更新博客内容，争取访问量提升到1200人以上。加强体育锻炼，如：打羽毛球、打篮球、滑滑板等，每天活动0。5～1小时，要注意安全。帮妈妈干一些力所能及的家务活，如：擦桌子、洗碗……

我要严格要求自己，按照制定的计划学习，这样，我就能度过一个多姿多彩的暑假。

回想起以前的暑假生活时，真是欲哭无泪，天天都要上特长班，搞的比上学还累，要不就是躲在家里睡觉，搞的晕头转向的。暑假一结 束，我总会无限悲凉地感慨道：“暑假无限好，只是虚度过。”

今年的暑假我决定杜绝类似情况发生，因此我下定决心，要做一个周全的暑假计划，决不让悲剧重演，我要过一个有意义的快乐假期!

首先，“我的暑假我做主”，只有这样的暑假才是最快乐的。可也不能只顾着玩呀!放心，我已经想好了，我要在娱乐中学习，自学成才!

学什么好呢?哈哈，我要学游泳!每每看到别人穿着游泳裤或游泳衣在游泳池里遨游时，我都羡慕不已。我从小就有当一名潜水员的梦想，早就希望学会游泳，享受一下在大海里遨游的乐趣了。今年暑假，说什么也不能错过。

对了， 我还是个电影迷、动画迷，所以，暑假我一定要把好片看个够。咦，奇怪了吧，不是说要好好学习吗?我当然没忘。看外国电影时，一边听着英语，一边看着中文字幕，肯定会收获不少，还顺便练了练听力，真是一举三得!

暑假的时候上上“学乐”是一个明智的选择。我愿意做出明智的选择。我吧，在“学乐”上预习预习五年级的，复习复习四年级的，最好玩的是可以和好朋友pk一场，我们可以在qq上招呼朋友，让他(她)们也来上“学乐”并跟他(她)们约好玩哪科哪课的游戏，两人pk的规则嘛，按照你自己的意愿定。

我觉得两人pk很有意思，我就和一位远在外省的朋友pk，我们的规则是这样的：语文数学和英语都做第一课，看谁先做完，做的对的游戏多，谁就获胜。对了，顺便告诉大家，要是希望公平的话，就请家长在一旁“观看”，以免有哪一方说谎。还有哦，在玩的过程中还可以加学分呢!

最后祝愿全天下的小学生们这个暑假过的开心.充实!

我的暑假生活像一座七彩桥，丰富多彩……现在就由我为你讲一讲暑假发生的趣事吧！ My summer vacation is like a colorful bridge, colorful ... Now let me talk about the fun things that happened in summer vacation!

暑假到了，妈妈让我学游泳，我想着能像小鱼一样在清凉的水中自由自在地嬉戏就答应了。

我和妈妈来到游泳馆里，游泳馆里真热闹！有好多人在游泳馆里学游泳呢！于是，我就穿好泳衣，下了游泳池。水可真冰呀！冻得我像进入了冰箱一样。

开始游泳了，老师先教我们蛙泳，先划手，再蹬腿。到我游了，我手一划脚一蹬，却怎么都不前进，反而像个石头一样直往下沉。这可把我急坏了。我像只泄了气的皮球一样，一点也不想动了。这时候，老师对我说：“放轻松一些，不要泄气。”接着便耐心地给我做示范，我照着老师的动作做，果然好多了。

经过两个星期的练习，我终于在暑假学会了游泳。游泳让我懂得了“坚持不懈，不能半途而废”的道理。

When National Day comes, I Feel so excited, it is not because I will have a vacation, but also I have many plans. I have made some plans for the vacation, I want to relax myself and find some interesting to do. I learn that there will be a lot of people going out, but I will choose some places that are less people to go, anyway, I have two plans on the seven days’ vacation.

当国庆节到来的时候，我感到很高兴，不仅仅是因为我将要有一个假期，而且我有很多计划。我已经为这个假期制定了一些计划，我想要放松自己，并找一些有趣的事情来做。我知道会有很多人出去玩，但是我会选择一些没那么多人的地方去，无论如何，我在七天的假期中有两个计划。

First, I will go to visit my grandparents. My grandparents live in the countryside, and it is the place where I grow up. I miss the place so much, I want to spend more time with my grandparents, they are a little old now. I also like to see the countryside’s scenery, the trees are so green and the water is so clean, I enjoy the time when I stay with my grandparents.

第一，我会去拜访我的外公和外婆。外公和外婆住在乡村，那也是我长大的地方。我很想念那里，我想要花多点时间和外公外婆在一起，他们现在有点上年纪了。我也想要看看乡村的景色，树很油绿，水很清澈，我很享受和外公外婆呆在一起的时光。

Second, I will join my friend’s wedding. I received my junior middle school classmate’s wedding note a week ago, I feel so happy for her, she asks me to be her bridesmaid, I feel it a honor to be her bridesmaid.

第二，我将会参加朋友的婚礼。我已经在一周前收到了初中同学的结婚通知，我为她感到高兴，她邀请我成为她的婚礼伴娘，我觉得这是很大的荣幸。

I can’t wait for my vacation now, I have bought the ticket to go home, it will be a wonderful holiday.

我已经等不及要放假了，我已经买了票回家，这将会是一个美好的假期。

The summer vacation had come round again.

暑假又来了。

I was happy that I could forget about school at least for a while. Lest I fool around all through this summer vacation, I made a plan as to how to spend it.

对于一个学生的我来说，又能把学校这个字眼抛掷脑后一段时间了；^_^；对于这个暑假，我给自己定了如下计划：

First, I thought I should go over all those things my teachers taught in the previous term so that I could have a better understanding of them.

首先，我会把老师教过的课本，重新温习一次，以便于我能对其有更为深入、彻底的了解。

Then I thought I should take up some forms of exercise, such as walking, running rowing, to keep me physically strong.

其次，我会锻炼身体；比如，走走路啊，跑步啥的，这样我的身体会更加强壮。

It stood to reason that with such a good plan I should make the best of my vacation time. I did, because I lived up to what I had planned.

对于给自己定的这个暑假计划，我会尽力去做到最好。 我认为我也能做到。因为，我给自己做了严格的计划。

[暑假又来了英语作文

The longing summer vacation is approaching, it is the best part of the

school year for me. I cannot let the holidays elapse (逝去) meaninglessly, my

vacation should be a phase (时期、阶段) of harvest. The events in my plan should give

me a sense of infinite potential.

The following plan may reveal the intensity of my desire to travel, work

and study in this vacation. In the first few days I want to climb Mount Hua Shan

with several friends to refresh ourselves. Then I tend to visit relatives,

senior school teachers and former classmates(老同学). Besides, to find out the best

ways to cultivate my abilities, I will find a part time job and conduct some

social investigation.

In short, I want to do interesting things in the summer vacation. Whatever

I do, the goal is the same: to get necessary experience, acquire knowledge and

broaden my horizons. Though the six week vacation will pass away at lightning

speed, its influence is bound to last long.

都说，日子是顺着过的，生命是倒计时的。以前还不相信，如今想来，还真有点道理。面对着我这初中的最后一个暑假，心里不禁思绪万千。一个计划悄然形成。

我会这样安排我的早晨，无论是过年还是去拜年。

7：00准时起床，穿衣、整理床铺4分钟，换鞋1分钟，梳头1分钟，刷牙3分钟，洗脸1分钟。这样算来，“打扫”自己共计10分钟。即使一开始不能按时完成，但只要每天有进步就很好啦。

然后，吃早餐，限时10分钟。

接下来，就要读英语(单数天)，读语文(双数天)。限时30分钟。

最后，就是做作业，每天早上做3个小时。

中午下午的时间自由支配，但我建议可以多看些课外书。

到了晚上7：00，看看新闻联播，之后，开始写作业。睡前必须读15分钟的书籍。我相信，如果每天都坚持的话，2个月下来，我可以读900分钟，相当于15个小时不吃不喝的阅读量。如果一直这样坚持下去的话，我相信，未来的我一定不是一个对文学常识一窍不通的庸人。毕竟，有个名人曾说过：一个人的未来，在于看他在空闲时间内做了些什么。

即使计划赶不上变化，但你一定要相信，世间万物，都有其两面性。我们不能做到完美，但我们可以在取舍之间达到平衡。

这是最后一个暑假，却也是决定我一生命运的赌场，成功与否，全看我对这场赌博付出了多少。虽然天气寒冷，但老师说过，这是最能检验和磨练一个人意志的时期。

无论如何，都要坚信：不管多远的路，也能走到尽头;不论多深的痛苦，也会有结束的一天。背负明天的希望，在每一个痛并快乐的日子里，才能走得更加坚强;怀揣未来的梦想，在每一个平凡而不平淡的日子里，才会笑得更加灿烂。只要不放弃，就没有什么能让自己退缩;只要够坚强，就没有什么能把自己打垮!

俗话说：斩断自己的退路，才能更好地赢得出路……

所有在这个夏天奔赴考场的朋友们：就让我们勇敢的迈出第一步，在这个“非常”假期，我们一起做最后的冲刺，一起为我们的未来努力。

“三更灯火五更鸡，正是学子用功时。黑发不知勤学早，白首方悔读书迟”……

去年正月初六，风和日丽，是个出外游玩的好日子，我们全家人来到了长乐度假村，来到了日夜向往的大海的怀抱里。

一踏上这个小岛，我便觉得特别舒畅。在这里，听不到自行车的铃声，听不到汽车的喇叭声，更没有城市里可怕的噪音。一切都是那么宁静，只有清脆的鸟啼和浪花拍打海岸的声响。

我们顺着龙头路往里走，道路两旁的建筑是那样的新颖奇特，看吧，这里有低矮的日本式别墅，也有高高矗立的白石楼;有西方国家几十年前留下的使馆，也有古朴、典雅的教堂，真是各具特色呀!

鼓浪屿不愧为“海上花园”。这里盛开着千姿百态、姹紫嫣红的各种花。玉盘似的荷叶衬托着含苞欲放的荷花，惹人爱玲。玫瑰充分飘洒自己的芬芳，不断从花苞里渗出幽香。连默默无闻的三角梅，也悄悄地在同意棵树开出几种颜色的花朵……真是琳琅满目，令人心旷神怡。

当夕阳美丽的余晖映红海面的时候，我们依依不舍的下了山，踏上了回家的路程。我扒在车的窗户上，久久地望着那里美丽的景象已深深地印在我的脑海中，永远，永远，也不会消失。

暑假个人读书计划自古以来阅读就是一种既普通又直接但却非常有效的求知方法。作为教师，从书本中获取知识就显得尤其重要。所以我们理应多读书，用书来净化心灵，用书中的知识充实自己。也能通过这样的途径学习他人的先进经验，让自己能更加胜任教育教学工作。因此特定暑假阅读计划如下：

一、读书目标：

1、通过读书活动，转变教育观念，提高教育教学能力、教育创新能力和教育科研能力。

2、通过读书活动，使自己业务精良，胜任新课程教学，成为符合素质教育要求的充满生机活力的小学教师。

3、通过读书活动，树立正确的世界观、人生观、价值观和教师职业观，建立新型的师生关系，塑造良好的教师形象。

4、通过读书活动，丰富自身个人文涵养，强化自身修养，使自己的精神世界变得更为丰富多彩。

二、在我的读书活动中我将遵循以下思路：

1、坚持“读书促进思考，思考促进成长”的原则，将精读与泛读相结合，读书时及时记下自己的读书体会，将读书与反思相结合，不断促进自己的专业成长。

2、将读书融入教学的相关环节和步骤，不断更新自己的教学观念，提高自己的教学实践能力。

3、通过读书活动让自己能学会享受阅读、享受教育、享受人生，提高生命质量。

三、开展读书活动的主要措施：

1、要使读书计划不流于形式，落到实处，关键在坚持，不把繁忙没时间读作为推脱之词。把读书作为每天必做的功课，要培养自己的意志力，直至这样的坚持成为一种习惯

2、每天要保证至少一个小时的读书时间。即使再忙，这段时间也不能省去。这一个小时内要避开外界的纷扰，真正做到静心静神，沉溺于书中，从而读出意味、读出情趣来。

3、同时，要力争作点读书笔记，或标注，或摘录，或质疑，或反思，不提高自己的各方面素质与综合能力。

四、所读书籍：

1、朱华忠的《教育，诗意的栖居》。

2、闫学的《跟苏霍姆林斯基学当老师》

3、储晋的《让孩子从此不怕写作文》

4、现代家长。智慧的人生从读书开始，且读且思，且思且行，这一路必将书香四溢，笑语满怀！这就是我的暑假计划作文

在暑假里，我经历了很多有趣的事情，但让我最开心的是和妈妈一起去果园摘李子。

一走进果园，最让我惊呆的是那一棵棵小李子树居然都长得比我高多了，一颗颗水灵灵的李子挂满枝头，有紫的，青的，远远望去，红的就像一个个小灯笼。

我们开始摘李子啰！李子有两个一双的，三个一团的，四个一簇的，真可爱！我太矮了，太矮了，而李子故意挑逗我似的说：“快来呀！摘我呀！”我没办法，只好爬上树去摘，妈妈说太危险了，就帮我把树枝扯弯下来，摘到了，摘到了，我高兴得蹦起来。

我们提着李子回到家放在水里，给它们洗洗澡，看它们游得多开心呀！有的在水里练习憋气--沉下去了，有的在水面上打水仗，还有的在水里睡觉觉，可调皮呢！

我选了一颗最大的李子给外婆，外婆咬了一口说：“我孙孙摘的，真好吃！”接着，大家一起开吃，一颗颗就像拨了外衣的珍珠，美味极了。

原来，自己动手做的每一件事都特别开心，吃起来也更甜。

日月如梭，转眼间，盼望已久的暑假终于又如期而至了。怎样度过一个充实而有意义的暑假呢？高尔基说过： 书籍是人类进步的阶梯。 即将步入三年级的我打算，在这个暑假里读许多许多的课外书，来提高我的作文水平。下面是我的读书计划：

一、读书有选择。图书馆的书架上摆满了各种各样的课外书，让我们眼花缭乱，有成语故事、童话故事、历史故事 特别是名著。书是我们的朋友，是我们的精神食粮！

二、读书有计划。每天至少要看一个小时的课外书，这样就可以培养成良好的读书习惯，当然，读书时要坐端正，这样才能保护好我们心灵的窗户 眼睛。

三、读书要做到 三到 ：心到、眼到、口到。我们要用心去读，用心去悟。吸取书中丰富的营养。唐代的大诗人杜甫说的好， 读书破万卷，下笔如有神， 精彩语段，妙词佳句，反复诵读，熟记在心。每天和爸爸妈妈分享读书的快乐，交流一下读后感吧！

四、看书时做好读书笔记，归类摘抄好词好句，名人名言，在书上做批录第，同时养成写日记的好习惯。另外，还得多看些工具书，比如，成语词典、新华字典、俗语大全、谚语、格言警句等。

书可以把我们带进知识王国，让我们乐此不疲。同学们让我们一起行动起来吧！

2月1日早上，我一拉开窗帘，就看到了树上、屋顶上、地上的白雪，仿佛在地上铺了一层厚厚的被子。

我在窗外看到了这一切。我高兴地跳起来，喊道:“爸爸，今天下大雪了！我们下去堆雪人吧！”爸爸说:“这是上海50年来最大的一场雪！”我和爸爸马上穿上雨靴，戴上雨帽，拿了一些雪人的工具，准备下去堆雪人。

我们来到小区花坛前，开始在一片草地上堆雪人。我说:“爸，大的我堆，小的你堆好不好？”“好！”爸爸高兴地说。我和爸爸从地上、树上、车顶上抱了一团雪，然后在地上滚来滚去差不多15分钟。我滚成了大雪球，爸爸也滚成了小雪球。我们把大雪球放在下面，小雪球放在上面，然后用雪橇打雪人。“身体”让它变得强壮，我问爸爸:“雪人能造好吗？”爸爸说:“你觉得少了什么？”我定睛一看:“啊！雪人失去了眼睛、鼻子和嘴巴。”我马上拿出两个扣子，放在雪人的脸上当眼睛，胡萝卜放在他的脸上当鼻子。我用一根树枝做它的嘴，两片树叶做它的耳朵。最后，爸爸折了一个纸帽子放在雪人的头上，我用一个红色的塑料袋把它绑在雪人的脖子上。啊！一个英俊的“小伙子”站在我们面前，我高兴得手舞足蹈。

就在我高兴的时候，父亲意味深长地对我说:“老虎，我们在这里玩得很开心，但是我们的国家今年遭受了一场严重的暴风雪，所以我们应该省吃俭用，每次都用电支援灾区。”听了父亲的话，我心里一直记着这件事！

After breakfast, my mother called me to the car and said she would take me to one of my favorite places. Then I embarked on a journey to the mysterious place with curiosity.

Coming to the mysterious place, I realized that the mysterious place was the library. I was very happy, jumping and jumping. After a while, my mood calmed down and slowly entered the library.

What a lot of books in the library! There are three kingdoms, the water margin, the love of education. How the steel is tempered, the king of composition...

Halloween is an autumn holiday that Americans celebrate every year. It means "holy evening，" and it comes every October 31， the evening before All Saints Day. However， it is not really a church holiday， it is a holiday for children mainly.

Every autumn， when the vegetables are ready to eat， children pick large orange pumpkins. Then they cut faces in the pumpkins and put a burning candle inside. It looks as if there were a person looking out of the pumpkin！ These lights are called jack-o-lanterns， which means "Jack of the lantern".

The children also put on strange masks and frightening costumes every Halloween. Some children paint their faces to look like monsters. Then they carry boxes or bags from house to house. Every time they come to a new house， they say，"Trick or treat！ Money or eat！" The grown-ups put treat-money or candy in their bags.

Not only children， but most grown-ups also love Halloween and Halloween parties because on this day，they can disguise themselves as personages or ghost as their imaginations will lead them. This bring them the satisfaction of being young.
