The purpose of this paper was to suggest the method of designing the primary English curriculum and teaching English considering politeness appropriate to situation. In order to achieve this purpose, the strategies of softening face threatening acts(FTAs) were reviewed in terms of Goffman(1967) and Brown and Levinson(1987). In this respect, the strategies of softening the FTAs are classified into bald on record, positive politeness, negative politeness, off record, and don’t perform the FTA. If an FTA has to be performed, then the speaker has to choose one of the strategies. The strategies should be taught in the primary classroom activities to communicate effectively and appropriately. Also, “the examples and functions of communication” and “linguistic form needed for communication” in the 2009 National Curriculum were analysed, and teacher’s classroom activities were diagnosed in the aspect of politeness. The results indicated that the curriculum and teaching methods based on politeness should be devised and implemented in the primary English classroom.
