1 Feel the artistic charm of calligraphy and cultivate children’s desire and expressiveness
Looking at the works of calligraphers from ancient and modern times at home and abroad, children will also have a desire to write, stimulating their desire to learn. interest. Guided by interest, we teach children the basic strokes of calligraphy and let them learn to write a type of font (of course, regular script). By observing and imitating during the learning process, children can feel the harmony between the dots and strokes of each specific Chinese character. The beauty of the combination and the spiritual energy it gives people, I feel the difference between calligraphy and writing, and at the same time I have the desire to express the beauty of calligraphy through myself. Through bit by bit teaching, children's writing ability is improved, their expressiveness in calligraphy is also strengthened, and they feel the fun of learning calligraphy.
2 Understand the traditional national art
China is a country with a history of five thousand years of civilization. In the long history, stars and celebrities have emerged in large numbers in all walks of life. As a traditional art, calligraphy has its own characteristics from generation to generation, and new talents emerge from generation to generation. The works of calligraphers such as Wang Xizhi, Wang Xianzhi, Yan Zhenqing, Liu Gongquan, and Ouyang Xun in the history of calligraphy are even more admired by later generations. In front of their works, later generations often immerse themselves in a kind of shocking enjoyment of the body and mind, thus developing an appreciation for our calligraphy. Art, with a deeper understanding and feeling. Feel its beauty, feel its difference from other arts, feel its surface tranquility that seems like thousands of troops galloping, or the comfort of a beautiful sunny day, or the solemnity of pines and ancient cypresses. In short, it is an art that allows people to use their imagination to the fullest. It is a treasure and the pride of our Chinese nation.
3 Cultivate children's self-control and perseverance
Learning calligraphy requires a certain amount of time as a guarantee. During the writing process, children are required to hold the pen and stand correctly to write. When writing, they must concentrate on writing one point at a time. Pay careful attention to the matching of strokes and the smooth structure. Do not speak or move randomly. Disrupt others and have to complete a certain number of writing requirements. This is a difficult thing for young children. Children must learn to restrain themselves and insist on completing homework within a certain time. This inadvertently also cultivates children's self-control and perseverance.
4 Cultivate children's self-care ability
Learning calligraphy requires the use of pens, ink, and paper. A teacher takes care of more than 20 children, and a lot of preparation work must be done before class. It takes too much time to do everything for each child before and after class. Therefore, we cultivate children's ability to serve themselves and let them take turns distributing brushes, newspapers, and rough paper for everyone. After finishing writing, I tidy up the table, put back the brush, ink cartridge, and newspaper. I scrub the ink-stained table and wash my dirty hands and face. Gradually, when you see them doing all this in an orderly manner, you will sincerely thank learning calligraphy for giving children around five years old this opportunity to exercise, so that children's self-care abilities can be greatly improved and developed.
