"Chinese Curriculum Standards for Primary Schools" proposes that you can read daily books, newspapers and magazines, appreciate literary works initially and enrich your spiritual world. Children's poetry is a branch of poetry, which takes children as the object, conforms to children's psychological and aesthetic characteristics, and expresses ideas in the most emotional, concise and rhythmic language. As a literary genre, it touches children's heartstrings and enters their hearts with beautiful melody and beating words. Therefore, cultivating students' ability to appreciate children's poems has become a major task for primary school Chinese teachers.
First, get the meaning-feel the beauty of children's poetry
"Chinese Curriculum Standard" points out that when reading excellent poems, we should pay attention to experiencing emotions, expanding imagination and understanding content in the reading process. "Love" is always the main theme of children's poetry. People, animals, plants and everything in nature are full of deep love. Therefore, teachers must guide students to feel the beautiful feelings in children's poems.
Xie's Comb describes it this way: Mom combs my hair/I comb my mother's hair, too. I ask students to read and imagine the mother and son combing their hair and feel the affection between mother and daughter. Similarly, Xie's Friends makes us feel that friends live closely together like magnets and small pins, without quarreling or separation. I ask students to connect their life scenes with their good friends, so as to create a * * * voice and experience the sweet friendship between friends. In the eyes of the poet Gao Hongbo, all animals are so lovely: how warm and enviable the baby bag in the kangaroo is; The wolf in Don't Be Afraid is actually not so bad, it will be afraid; The fox in "I like you, Fox" is so clever and calculating ... In the eyes of the poet Wang Yizhen, when the spring breeze blows, everything wakes up happily, and a "Little Flower's Dream" tells the vitality of spring. Naughty breeze/blowing a crack in Xiaohua's dream/It wants to have a look/There are singing stars in Xiaohua's dream/It wants to count/It is made up of several beautiful colors/Who knows how many drops/twists and turns of birdsong are emitted in that crack. When we read this little poem, a vibrant picture appeared in front of us, and we really felt that spring had arrived. I asked the students to record their feelings with pictures, and one work after another was born. In the spring, the weather is warm, the flowers are blooming and the colors are gorgeous. This feeling is so real, so natural, so simple.
Second, get "words"-the language of reading children's poems
Poetry is the art of language. The language of children's poetry is vivid and vivid. Teachers should guide students to learn idioms and writing in the process of reading children's poems.
Yin Changqing's early spring is like this: a bud/shouting happily in the soil/taking off her winter coat/a bud/driving a group of buds/shaking her head happily/the wind, lifting spring out of the ground/shouting with a shake. The best part of this poem is the use of verbs. When teaching, I ask students: Please draw the verbs in the poem, choose one you like best, and tell me why you like it. The verbs "call, take off, shake and help" vividly show the vigorous vitality of spring, especially the word "help", which is amazing.
The language of children's poetry is not only accurate and appropriate, but also musical in rhythm. Jing's poem "Running Water" says: Who plays far? Who plays skillfully? /poop-poop-/A string of notes dancing on the water; /Brush brush-/A flock of birds are flying on the water. The use of onomatopoeia not only accurately describes the sound of tiles skimming over the water, but also strengthens the rhythm of poetry, vividly writing the children's happy jumping mood when drowning.
Third, get the "method"-pay attention to the creative methods of children's poems
In the process of writing children's poems, we pay attention to skills. In the eyes of the poet Gao Endo, numbers have individuality, but in the eyes of the poet Schell, dreams will solidify ... In the process of creating children's poems, the poet weaves a children's poem with the innocence and childlike interest of the richest man. Therefore, teachers must remind children to pay attention to various expressions in children's poems. In Wei Ya's "Stream in front of the door", a Hong Kong poet used a similar technique: the running stream, like a shy little girl, would cover her eyes with leaves. The poet Jin Bo used a hypothetical technique and said: If I were a snowflake, I would float into the river and become a drop of water to play with small fish and shrimp. Although the creative techniques are different, these poems bring us endless reverie.
Jin Bo once said: "A good poem focuses on the end, although it is often the first thought." Children's poetry often becomes wonderful and vivid and has profound feelings because of a sentence or a sentence that makes the finishing point. This sentence or word is called "poetic eye".
Lin Wuxian's Sunshine has only four short lines: "Sunshine climbs on the window/Sunshine smiles on the flowers/Sunshine flows on the stream/Sunshine shines in mom's eyes." In teaching, I show it line by line. After showing three lines, I asked the students: The sunshine is crawling, laughing and flowing. What is it like? They all thought of naughty children. Then guess what the poet's next sentence is? Students have different views: the sun is asleep in the pond, lying under the big tree, the sun is singing in the field ... Finally, the poet's words are presented: "The sun shines in mother's eyes". The students were surprised, so I asked: Is this poem well written? Why? Students suddenly realize that the last sentence is the finishing touch, from natural scenery to humanistic feelings. In children's eyes, mother's eyes are bright sunshine, full of love, making children warm and happy. Finally, I emphasize once again that grasping the vision of poetry is also a way to create children's poems.
A children's poem is a beautiful scenery, a game and a philosophy. Appreciating children's poems is not for writing poems, but for cultivating self-cultivation, improving temperament and enriching one's spiritual world. Let's walk in the jungle of children's poems together!
