Infiltrating aesthetic education in English classroom teaching requires teachers to have high-grade aesthetic cultivation, infect students through their own cultivation, and then guide students to feel beauty and form the pursuit of beautiful things by excavating aesthetic factors in teaching materials; Secondly, we should be good at deconstructing the knowledge of beauty contained in English textbooks from the aesthetic point of view and guide students' aesthetics through vivid and intuitive teaching; Thirdly, by cultivating students' perception and appreciation of beauty, students' interest and ability in learning can be stimulated.
First, explore the content of teaching materials, so that students can feel the beauty
Infiltrating aesthetic education into English teaching has unique advantages: the beauty of English calligraphy; Humorous content; English songs with beautiful melody; Simple customs, even architecture, art and movies in English-speaking countries are permeated with the art of beauty. Teachers should explore the factors of beauty in teaching materials, awaken students' potential aesthetic consciousness, and guide students to feel the natural beauty, truth, goodness and beauty in English.
1. The Beauty of Calligraphy in English
Although English calligraphy is not as profound and wonderful as calligraphy, we can still show some beautiful and meaningful English writing works to students by showing teaching pictures and playing videos. In order to promote students' understanding of standardized writing and their yearning for beauty.
2. Appreciate the beauty in songs
It can bring people relaxed enjoyment and directly touch people's hearts, and it is an art that can directly touch people. From the psychological characteristics of students, relaxed and happy songs can bring spiritual and emotional enjoyment to students, and make them relax and feel happy from the heart. Therefore, applying listening and singing English songs to English teaching can greatly improve students' interest and enthusiasm in learning English. Music activities can not only train students' imagination, but also train students' attention, observation and memory, and cultivate students' aesthetic taste. Therefore, teachers should introduce music into English classes. Teachers can choose English songs with beautiful melody and healthy content according to the content of the textbook, and review and master new knowledge under the influence of musical beauty, so that students can feel that learning is also a very wonderful thing.
3. Feel the beauty in reading textbooks
English reading means that students use relevant English knowledge and non-English knowledge to interpret reading materials containing certain knowledge. Strengthening reading training can create a lot of opportunities and conditions for students to acquire language knowledge and use language. Reading in and out of class can not only cultivate students' ability to analyze and synthesize texts and obtain information from them, but also cultivate students' good aesthetic taste, learn to appreciate the beauty in English literary works and cultivate students' good sentiment through natural infiltration. The process of reading is a cognitive process of language, which helps to consolidate and expand vocabulary, enrich language knowledge and improve language application ability. Reading can train thinking ability, comprehension ability, generalization ability and judgment ability. Students can feel the beauty of textbook reading by improving their reading ability and thinking ability.
4. Feel the beauty in the teaching situation
Multimedia teaching is an attractive cultural teaching method, which integrates images, sounds, literature and animation, and can achieve the effect of being there, seeing people, touching things and listening to sounds. Vivid animation and pleasant impression can bring students into a colorful world and get an immersive feeling. This can arouse students' enthusiasm and let them feel the beauty of the English world and the surrounding world through various organs.
Second, pay attention to the art of teaching and let students appreciate beauty.
Teaching is an art, and the essence of art lies in shaping a beautiful image and giving people a strong sense of beauty. Therefore, in teaching, we should not only respect English teaching itself, but also make full use of various artistic means to beautify the English teaching process, so that students can always appreciate the natural beauty of the English world and feel the artistic beauty of English teaching, so as to better improve their aesthetic ability.
1. Show the beauty of content
According to the characteristics of English teaching content and the factors containing beauty, this paper shows various forms of beauty. Like in? Hollywood? Best in history-Audrey Hepburn? In the first class, the author prepared beautiful pictures of Hepburn in various periods before class, and downloaded some classic movies starring her, such as Roman Holiday, Funny Face and so on. Through her beautiful performance and the artistic content of the film itself, she deeply attracted the students from the beginning of this class, and then through the author's explanation, the students mastered the content of this class more fully. In the second half of this class, the author will also show some movie stars familiar to students through multimedia, such as Gong Li in China and Jackie Chan in Hongkong. This will push the atmosphere of this class to a peak. In this way, language learning and artistic enjoyment can be combined through English subjects.
2. The beauty of using language
Lecture is to turn the knowledge in books into one's own language, and it is the exchange of thoughts and feelings between teachers and students.
Teachers' language should be natural, fluent, lively, interesting and infectious; Soft timbre, beautiful voice and rich emotional color; Intonation should be rhythmic and coordinated with body language naturally and properly. For example, in English teaching, the timely and appropriate use of some idioms or slang can vividly and humorously explain the similarities between English and Chinese, so that students can appreciate the beauty of the language. Like what? There's nothing wrong with eyes. Can't see, but the heart can't see? Don't be sad? There are also Chinese? Out of sight, out of mind? Have the same effect. Of course, there are many such examples in English.
3. Design the experimental beauty of audio-visual teaching
Using or designing colorful and lively teaching AIDS can attract students' attention, highlight key points and turn difficult into easy, which is also the concrete embodiment of English teachers' pursuit of beauty. For example, the application of stick figure, the posting of color wall charts and even the application of some physical teaching AIDS can attract students' attention and increase their interest in learning. In some qualified schools, computer teaching can be used in teaching, so that the audio-visual advantages of multimedia can be displayed on the screen. Teachers should also remind students of their harmonious, symmetrical, colorful and rhythmic beauty when using audio-visual teaching equipment and wall charts.
4. Create a beautiful teaching atmosphere
To create a beautiful teaching atmosphere, teachers should be able to communicate with students ideologically, have psychological resonance and create a democratic and harmonious classroom atmosphere. Like talking? Neil armstrong? Sometimes, you can play a video with both music and explanation first, which can make students' emotions integrate into the teaching content and quickly enter the learning state; Then, through the communication between students and teachers and students, a teaching atmosphere combining teaching with learning is created, so that the teaching task can be completed in a relaxed and happy atmosphere.
Third, carry out extracurricular activities to let students create beauty.
1. hold lectures to cultivate creativity
The contents of the lecture include English, English writing, English grammar and even English intensive reading and extensive reading. Through a series of extracurricular training, students have fewer and fewer obstacles in English learning. At the same time, we can also play some classic movies after class, such as? Voice, Roman holiday, broken blue bridge? Excellent films, etc. Not only let students listen to the classic dialogue, but also let them appreciate the beauty of excellent films.
2. Carry out colorful extracurricular competitions.
Use spare time to carry out various competitions; For example, hard pen calligraphy contest, oral speech contest, word spelling contest, composition contest and so on. Through these activities, students' ability to use English can be improved and their enthusiasm for learning English can be improved. Of course, these activities must be carefully prepared and planned before they can be carried out, and they must not be anticlimactic.
3. Go to the field for an English activity class to cultivate aesthetic sentiment.
Now it's integrated into the world. With the deepening of communication between China and other countries in the world, foreign friends can be seen everywhere in our country. In order to let our students overcome the fear of opening their mouths, we can take measures to let students go out of the classroom to have English classes. Now many cities in our country have English corners, and we can encourage students to go to these places. Or we can also carry out English corner activities on campus. Through these activities, our students can experience the double happiness of interpersonal communication and learning English.
In short, the implementation of aesthetic education in English teaching should be based on English subjects, explore English textbooks, attach importance to the classroom and extracurricular activities, guide students to feel beauty, cultivate students to appreciate beauty, and ultimately improve their ability to learn English and create beauty.
