How to teach primary school students to write a good composition
After reading the articles recently published by Zhu Haibin, Pin Guan, Liu Yufeng and Lin Yumin in hard pen calligraphy, I also want to say a few words and ask you.
I agree with Mr. Huang and Mr. Lin that it is more appropriate for primary school students to practice' printing orthography' in the lower grades (first and second grades). However, I think the main factors that determine the quality of students' writing are the government's education system and the teaching ability of school writing teachers, not what style students write. In other words, the reason why students' writing is "bad" lies in educators, not in the educated. Students are just victims. Because students' poor handwriting is not caused by "difficult to write in regular script", there is no need to adopt "thin bold" teaching in Hengfan Central Primary School in Lin 'an City. As long as the government and schools pay enough attention to it, and teachers have correct teaching methods and excellent teaching ability, I believe students can write well in any font.
It may be more practical if we can turn the topic of debate to how to make use of news media and internet, and call on the government to attach importance to students' writing education, build a strong team of hard-pen writing teachers, and comprehensively carry out hard-pen writing education in primary and secondary schools.
Let's talk about my own experience in hard pen writing training for many years.
First, teach primary school students to write, starting with writing. If you want to write well, you must first hold a pen. The correct writing method is the premise of writing a good article. The wrong writing method is the chief culprit that makes students fall into the writing dilemma. So in my opinion, it is very important for schools to write this lesson correctly at the beginning of students' enrollment. According to the current education situation, except in remote mountainous areas and rural areas, writing teaching courses should be decentralized to kindergartens. Otherwise, when students come out of kindergarten, the problem of writing will fall behind. With the lesson of school writing, students' situation of "everyone is the same" will soon be improved. Moreover, most students will have correct writing methods, not wrong writing methods, which will bring fundamental changes to students' writing.
Second, to teach primary school students to write, we should pay attention to the teaching of pen movements. The movement of strokes determines the quality of writing, and the shape and posture of strokes are completed by specific strokes. Only when the movements are in place can the strokes be written well. Chinese characters are composed of strokes, so it is not difficult to write strokes and characters well. It is not difficult to teach students horizontal, vertical, left-handed and right-handed strokes. As long as teachers do more demonstration teaching, it is not difficult for students to master it. Although there are many Chinese characters, there are only more than twenty basic strokes. Writing teaching, from the beginning of writing, will become easy and simple, and can get twice the result with half the effort.
Third, teaching primary school students to write, lifting, pressing, stopping and receiving should be weakened, not strengthened. The main goal of primary school students' writing is to be correct, neat and have a certain speed. The strokes should be straight, not tortuous, and the lifting and pressing of the pen should be as simple as possible, which will not affect the neatness and speed. Never use the method of lifting and pressing the pen to teach hard pen. At present, most of the hard pen writing teaching in schools uses a more intensive pressure-raising method than the brush to teach primary school students to write, which causes students to repeatedly draw words in order to show the thickness of the pen. The most prominent phenomena are elbows at both ends of the cross and feet stuck to boots. To write this horizontal or horizontal, the normal writing method must be written at least three times. This is simply giving students trouble. The saddest thing is that this writing is taught by the teacher.
Fourth, the teacher is the key to teaching primary school students to write. In order to make the majority of primary and secondary school students write well, it is necessary for the national education system to pay more attention to writing education. The construction of hard pen teachers in schools is particularly urgent. The shortage of hard pen writing teachers in primary and secondary schools is the bottleneck of writing teaching. It can be said that most primary and secondary schools can hardly find qualified hard pen writing teachers. The writing course stipulated a few years ago, because there is no professional teacher, it is difficult to fool, and it is gradually replaced by Chinese, mathematics and other courses. Moreover, at present, most teachers are not even correct in their writing skills, let alone how to teach writing. If the Ministry of Education attaches importance to the writing education of primary and secondary school students under the appeal of all parties, if the hard-pen writing teachers in schools can't keep up, they can only rely on lay teachers to fool students, so the writing teaching will die again. Therefore, it will be one of the feasible countermeasures to introduce off-campus hard-pen calligraphers to train teachers and teach students to write.
