State 1: I have not developed the correct sitting posture and writing method. Looking at the present situation, many students sit and write in a variety of ways, some lying on the table, some leaning, some writing with pens and so on. Not only does it look awkward, but the words written by such students are generally poor, some are chaotic, some are rigid and irregular, some are random, shoddy, lawless and unsightly.
Status 2: Writing class has become a "copying class". You see, in the writing class, children's lively nature is gone, and they are like ascetic monks who hone their will. Reason: In traditional calligraphy, there is such a teacher's admonition: "Copying is the only way for calligraphy." Therefore, the method of learning to write is very monotonous-copy books is almost the only magic weapon in writing class, and the teacher just acts as an intermediary. The real teacher "hides" behind the copy books and plays charades with students that "meaning can only be expressed but not expressed". I don't know that the better the font, the more perfect it is, and the higher the technical requirements. For a beginner, this is nothing more than eating big fish and big meat for the baby who just learned to eat.
Status quo 3: Some teachers in the school have failed in their own "three tricks". If you want to give a bowl of water, you have to have a bucket of water. In reality, most teachers' handwriting is not very good and standardized, and the negative influence he brings to students' learning to write cannot be underestimated.
Situation 4: At present, students have a large amount of homework, and only pursue the correct rate of homework, ignoring the correctness and standardization of students' writing. For a long time, students' writing ability has gradually declined.
Status quo 5: With the popularization of computers, keyboard input can not be underestimated, which impacts writing with pens. Keyboard input provides a quick writing tool for the fast-paced life in our colleges and universities. Some students and even parents may think that writing in the future is computer-operated, and keyboard input can completely replace pen writing without any effort. This is also one of the reasons why primary school students' writing is not taken seriously and their writing ability is declining year by year.
Therefore, in view of the above four reasons, the author summed up the following countermeasures in several years of teaching.
First, strengthen team building and improve teachers' writing literacy.
A good writing class needs high-quality teachers. Teachers' colleges and universities should strengthen the training of teachers' three-sex comparison. When recruiting teachers, the education department should take the comparison of three sexes as one of the basic skills of teachers. On-the-job teachers should carry out three-character comparison, issue certificates and hold certificates. Starting from teachers, writing teaching in primary schools can be guaranteed by a team of high-quality teachers.
Second, pay attention to posture norms and lay the foundation for students to write.
Teachers should remember that holding a pen and sitting posture are the first principles of learning calligraphy and should not be underestimated.
1. Correct sitting posture is not only beneficial to students' health, but also lays a good foundation for learning calligraphy. Its main point is: (1) The feet are separated, and the distance is equal to the upper shoulder. You have to step on the ground naturally.
(2) The back should be natural and straight, and it should not be stiff and stiff.
(3) The shoulders should be flush, not high left and low right or high right and low left. The chest is facing the table, at least one fist away from the table.
2. Writing methods. Throughout the ages, calligraphers have written in a variety of ways, but those who have achieved something always follow certain principles. For example, in You Zheng's Yan Ji in the Yuan Dynasty, "the husband holds the author, and the key to the dharma book is also." There are three main items.
(1) Correct use of "three fingers" writing. Many people feel that there is no need to learn to write, so they go their own way. As a result, they not only failed to learn well, but also developed a long-standing bad habit. Therefore, especially novices, we must strictly abide by the "three fingers" rule.
(2) "Fingers are empty." There is a saying in calligraphy that "the palm of your hand is empty", which has been circulating for a long time and is recognized by calligraphers of all ages. The focus of these four words is "palm empty". Su Dongpo said: "There is no definite way to put pen to paper, but it should be open-minded." The words "virtual" and "wide" are the principles that * * * must abide by. If the palm of your hand is not empty, the pen tube is closing, and you will die, so your hand should resist.
(3) Not too tight. Huang Bais's "Comment on the East View" in the Northern Song Dynasty said that "after the middle Tang Dynasty, calligraphy declined", and some calligraphers made the mistake of too tight management, which was also one of the reasons for the decline. Tang's Preface to the stirrup said: "The power of the pen is not the power. If you use it, the pen will die. " When describing his experience of learning books, Di Wei said: "Learning books is expensive and complicated, but the essays are light. Naturally, he has a guilty conscience and is innocent, out of accident." (See Volume 8 of "The Jade and the Iron") So don't write too tightly.
Mr. Changli said, "You are a teacher, preaching to dispel doubts." . Therefore, the mission of every calligraphy teacher is a long way to go. Students' incorrect sitting posture and writing methods should be regarded as the primary stubborn disease in teaching summary to save them, and they should be found and puzzled at any time. Correct ways to guide students to learn calligraphy.
Third, create teaching situations to stimulate students' interest in learning.
As the saying goes, "Interest is the best teacher". It is also used in writing teaching. Only by creating a good learning situation and guiding students into the established artistic conception of writing can we concentrate students' attention and make them love writing.
1, clever questions, interesting words.
Pupils are very curious and have a deep memory of the knowledge they have discovered on their own initiative. Therefore, teachers should not explain examples immediately when instructing pupils to write. They should skillfully set questions, stimulate their interest and let them actively look for the characteristics of sample words. For example, after printing the example word "Sen", I asked "Students, do you only need to repeat the word" wood "three times according to the product structure? After analysis and observation, the students raised their hands to speak one after another, which not only distinguished the differences between three related strokes, especially the strokes of three pieces of wood should be regarded as two points and one stroke, but also obtained the law that repeated strokes of the same word should be changed and the word should be unique. In the process of speaking, students will have some immature views. At this time, the teacher should have enough patience, that is, to affirm his spirit of inquiry and further guide the students to conduct detailed inquiry. And give enthusiastic encouragement, which is conducive to the formation of students' active inquiry attitude.
2, image metaphor, vivid explanation.
First of all, I make a metaphor from the shape of strokes, for example, I compare oblique strokes to "command knives", curved strokes to "ivory", and vertical curved strokes to "fishhooks" ... I compare each stroke to a familiar object that students like to see, so that while clarifying strokes, I also clarify that the beauty of words is not abstract. Through this metaphor, students' intuitive observation ability and aesthetic ability can be improved.
Secondly, it simulates the structure of word combinations. For example, the vertical painting of the Chinese character "Zhong", simulated by the human torso, should be short on the top and long on the bottom, which conforms to the beauty of the human body and the golden section rule. For another example, why should the tail of the painting be tilted up a little? Perhaps it is best to use upturned leather shoes to simulate ... These simulations prove that students can remember the image of strokes and understand many laws and principles of beauty.
3. Cite allusions to stimulate knowledge.
When giving lectures, I sometimes introduce some ancient calligraphy figures, allusions, anecdotes, archaeological discoveries, auctions, etc. Improve students' extracurricular knowledge in time. Make them love the cultural heritage of the motherland, stimulate their curiosity and stimulate the passion of practicing Chinese characters well. In a calligraphy appreciation class, I played a scene of bidding for works at a painting and calligraphy auction. The students were very surprised and in high spirits. Then, the teacher asked, "Why can a pair of tens of calligraphy works be worth such a high price?" Students have different opinions and answers. The teacher seized the opportunity to point out that comfortable art is a unique traditional art of the Chinese nation. In the simple black-and-white world, with its strong rhythm, emotional attitude, temperament with both form and spirit, and interesting artistic conception, it deeply attracts and touches people, giving people a pleasing feeling and a beautiful enjoyment. Therefore, we should be proud of inheriting and developing the calligraphy art of our motherland.
Fourth, carefully prepare homework and develop good writing habits.
Because of the large amount of students' homework, they only pursue the correct rate of homework and ignore the correctness and standardization of students' writing. In the long run, this is one of the main reasons for the gradual decline of students' writing ability. Therefore, I think we teachers should pay attention to the following points:
1, and constantly improve the quality of classroom teaching. This is also the goal that every teacher pursues all his life.
2. Streamline homework and constantly improve students' writing ability. In order to improve the quality of students' writing, we should first change our ideas ideologically, and don't criticize the accuracy of students' homework as "excellent" and ignore the quality of students' writing. Secondly, our teacher must consider the students' heavy homework. If students have more homework, they will inevitably pursue the correct rate, so it is difficult to write correctly. Therefore, as long as the amount of homework is simplified, students are strictly required to write correctly, and they are strictly checked when correcting, students can gradually develop good writing habits.
In short, it is the responsibility of every calligraphy teacher, Chinese teacher and even educator to study and understand the reasons for the decline of primary school students' writing ability, so as to find ways and measures to overcome difficulties and change the status quo. Strengthening the teaching of writing can not only make students write beautifully, but also promote students to develop good writing habits, correct their writing attitude, cultivate their sentiments, and even help students learn to be human and achieve the purpose of educating people.
