Abstract: Deep learning, as a pedagogical concept and approach, is aligned with educational reform trends. It has gained increasing prominence and offered new perspectives for designing junior high school English reading instruction. Classroom teaching of English reading based on deep learning emphasizes deep knowledge processing and advocates for learning that is socially interactive and inclusive. It draws theoretical foundations from Bloom's taxonomy of educational objectives, constructivism, and metacognitive theory. In English reading classrooms, teachers can promote deep learning through strategies such as setting concrete, tiered, and achievable learning objectives; creating authentic contexts; and employing positive, guiding assessment approaches.

Keywords: deep learning, English reading, teaching strategies
