First, the pen holding posture is the most important.
What I'm talking about here is "five-finger writing"
"Five-finger pen-holding method" is to use all five fingers of the right hand to hold the pen stably by "pressing, pressing, hooking, pushing and extending", so that the fingers can perform their duties. The specific method of holding the pen is: the inside of the first book of the thumb is pressed against one side of the pen holder, and the thumb is in a slightly horizontal lateral state. Press the pen from the outside to the inside at the first or second joint of the index finger. The middle finger is next to the index finger and hooks the pen. The ring finger is close to the middle finger, and the root of the first nail is close to the pen to resist the pressing force of the index finger and the middle finger. Press the little finger under the inside of the ring finger to help. In this way, the strength of the five fingers evenly surrounds the three sides of the pen, making the pen fixed and the palm empty. The same is the five-finger pen-holding method, which forms many forms because of the opening and closing of the hand lattice, whether the pen is held at the fingertip or at the second joint of the finger. The ancients called it "phoenix eye", "tiger's mouth" and "goose's head" and so on.
Details that need attention
Beginners should practice block letters and write lower (about 1 inch from the root of the pen) to make the strokes more stable. Writing regular script is difficult to master because of its high writing level and great changes. There is also the problem of tight writing. If you hold it too tightly and exert too much force, your hands will tremble and your fingers will be sore. If you hold it too loosely, the pen will fall off without force. For beginners, they are nervous because they have never held a brush, so they can relax appropriately. Of course, writing is not powerless. The ancients said that "the force lies in the pen tip", which means that the force is transmitted to the pen tip through the hand holding the pen, rather than staying on the arm or finger. Writing is skillful and not fatal. Li Qiao comes from long-term practice, just like riding a bike. You can ride, get used to it, and don't feel like you're exerting yourself. If you don't feel that you are exerting yourself freely, you will pass the writing test.
Second, the importance of the center pen
The pen used in the center is the basis for children to learn regular script. When children write at home, parents should tell them that the brush should be upright, preferably perpendicular to the paper, because some children tend to write like a marginal pen with a small angle, so parents should guide their children to be perpendicular to the paper at home.
Third, the eight methods of permanent characters should be memorized.
Many parents don't understand and ask me, "Why does my child always write strokes? Why didn't he write? " Let me answer this question. Eight-character sequence method is the basis of writing regular script, especially when children learn regular script. Writing a good eight-character preface is as important as learning pinyin well, which is the foundation. Therefore, parents should let their children memorize the eight-character sequence, copy the strokes inside every day, and write silently to lay a good foundation for writing. Children have limited kung fu, so it is very important to lay a good foundation, and they can't be eager for quick success. Which ancient calligraphy master didn't start with strokes? Only when the foundation is firmly laid can the superstructure be solid. For children to make rapid progress in the future, parents should never ignore the importance of strokes, start slowly and have a solid foundation, and your children will make rapid progress in the future!
The following are some basic strokes I have summarized, which parents can refer to at home.
Fourthly, the importance of temporary posts.
Post, maybe many parents are very vague and unfamiliar with this word. Let me talk about my own views on the issue of temporary employment. Copying is a necessary process to write calligraphy well. At first, the teacher told the children how to write every stroke. After mastering this process, the child enters the process of copying. Why do you want to copy? Because only copybooks are the essence of learning. Copywriting is a classic knowledge of ancient calligraphers. You will learn a lot more profound brushwork in copybooks, just like learning calligraphy from a powerful teacher. So at a certain stage, I won't type for my children, which also makes many parents misunderstand that children can't learn anything without typing. Actually, it's not. If children want to write better without a teacher, they should write their own style, learn from copybooks and learn some better skills without the teacher's prefix. The teacher's role is to guide them and make children progress faster. Then at home, parents should play such a good role, take a copybook and let the children copy it according to the copybook. Parents should pay attention to the following points: 1, depending on the thickness and pen used in the center; 2. The size in the grid; 3. Is it like in the copybook?
Five, to persevere, don't touch ten cold.
As a teacher, I also began to learn with a pen, draw and paste from an early age. My father often urges me to practice calligraphy every day 1 hour or so. At first, I didn't understand my father because I was young, but because of my father's insistence, I followed suit and finally got into the habit. I don't write my own calligraphy every day, just like I didn't do something as important as missing it. In fact, the attitude of many students also reflects the attitude of parents. Parents' persistence will definitely make their children successful in the end. In fact, it is boring on the road of calligraphy, but as long as parents insist and firmly believe that your child is the best, the child will certainly not live up to their parents' expectations. Therefore, if you want your children to write beautiful calligraphy, you can't do without your efforts. You should insist that children practice every day and ensure that they write for 20 minutes every day. Every week, every month, every year is several times more than not practicing.
