How to keep a diary

Diary is an applied style. A diary is a selective record of what you see, hear and feel during the day. Diary can be read by parents, teachers and good friends, but mainly for myself. If primary school students can keep a diary, they can not only improve their ability to observe things and analyze problems, but also improve their ability to express themselves in language. The choice of materials for diaries is also very free. You can write anything you want. If you have something to say, it will be long, and if you have nothing to say, it will be short. In addition, expression can also be discussed, lyrical and even written into poetry. Therefore, diary is a favorite style of primary school students, and it is also an excellent way to practice writing to arouse their interest in writing. Keeping a diary can improve students' writing ability, train their observation ability, give play to their imagination, cultivate their sense of innovation and form a learning atmosphere of cooperation and exchange. In daily teaching, effectively guiding students to write diaries is an effective way to improve students' writing ability. "Chinese Teaching Syllabus for Primary Schools" also clearly points out: "Keeping a diary often can exercise students' observation and cognitive ability, accumulate writing materials and enhance their writing ability. Students should be trained to keep a diary from the third grade. "Guiding students to write observation diaries is not only observing and thinking about students, but also providing materials for composition, which is one of the effective ways to improve students' writing level. The content of primary school students' diaries is very extensive, but because students often turn a blind eye to the people or things they hear and see around them, they often have nothing to say, even a running account. Therefore, students should be trained to keep a diary according to their age characteristics and actual situation. (1) Keeping a diary has the following requirements. 1. The person who keeps a diary in the first person will always be "I", recording what he sees, hears, feels and does. In short, record his words, deeds and thoughts. 2. Write the first article in a certain format. In the first line of each diary, you should write the year, month and day, as well as the day of the week and the weather (cloudy, sunny, rainy, windy, etc.). ). Second, write down the words in the two blanks in the second line. To record what happened that day, it must be one or more real events that happened that day. Don't exaggerate or shrink what you see at will, but seek truth from facts. Third, keep a diary. Generally speaking, you keep it every day. You can also summarize and review the thoughts of the past week, which is called a weekly diary. Don't confuse the dates of the diary and the weekly diary for future reference. The length of a diary is determined by the content and time. You can write a whole article or a few words. It's best to write it down on the same day, don't make it up. (2) The first type of diary is narrative. Record what you saw and heard in a day truthfully and write it out in the same way as a narrative. The second is emotion. Express your feelings and views on life in an argumentative way. Mainly discuss the views on someone or something; Or what books you have read, what you have studied, and so on. (3) Ways to Guide Primary School Students to Keep Diaries "Chinese Curriculum Standards for Primary Schools" points out: "Writing is an important way to use language to express and communicate, and it is a process of understanding the world, self-awareness and creative expression. Writing ability is a comprehensive embodiment of Chinese literacy. Writing teaching should be close to students' reality, make students easy to write and be willing to express, guide students to pay attention to reality, love life and express their true feelings. " Mr. Ye Shengtao said: "Life is like a spring, and articles are like a stream. The spring water is abundant and inexhaustible, and the stream flows naturally and is full of vitality. " Therefore, guide students to "be close to reality, pay attention to reality and love life". Keeping a good diary is of great significance to enhance students' ability to understand things and improve their writing level and comprehensive quality of Chinese. The material of writing comes from life, and many things happen around us every day. If you write down what you saw, heard, thought and the most meaningful things of the day, this is a diary. Lower grades should be compulsory, middle grades should pay attention to the accumulation of words, and upper grades should guide students to determine the center and select materials according to the center. 1, guide to write familiar things. Pupils have little life experience, low observation ability and little imagination. When it comes to keeping a diary, they often feel that there is nothing to write, either keeping a running account or writing a few perfunctory words, which is very dull and has no specific content. According to the requirements of the syllabus, "composition teaching should start with the content, guide students to choose meaningful content to write what they are familiar with and express their true feelings." Use a few minutes before school every day to let them talk about what happened that day and find the contents of the diary for them. After a while, I expanded the scope of writing, guiding out what happened on campus, on my way to school, or at home, so that everyone could write together, avoiding the sameness and stimulating everyone's interest in writing. 2. Provide clues for writing. The nature of primary school students is fun. Without the teacher's reminder and guidance, many good materials worth writing in life will not be discovered or deeply felt. One day, I saw a classmate throw away a piece of steamed bread in his hand and said, "Do you know how this steamed bread came from? Have you learned the poem "Weeding"? Can you feel the hard work of mom and dad? " That evening, he wrote in his diary: "I was extremely ashamed after listening to Teacher Ma's words. I know a piece of steamed bread is hard to come by. My parents earned it hard. I must be a thrifty student. " In this way, he will naturally write things in his life. 3. Ask to keep a diary. After students have writing materials, they should gradually put forward several requirements for keeping a diary: First, they should complete a diary every day. Most students are very interested and write diaries well, but a few students are perfunctory. Therefore, I also demand the length of the diary, forcing them to write the diary vividly and concretely, and write their true feelings, and don't tell lies, empty words, big words or fictional content. 4. Broaden the writing style of diaries and make students feel that it is not difficult to write. 1) Write an observation diary. Observation diary is a record of regular and careful observation of daily life, which can be once a day or once a few days; You can write about a person, an event, an object, an activity, or you can just write a brief introduction, a scene and a detail. You can write a complete article, or you can just write a fragment, with no beginning or end, which is very flexible. Writing an observation diary can help students understand life and society, accumulate materials and enrich writing content; Can improve observation ability, analysis ability and writing expression ability; You can also cultivate your interest in writing. 2) Keep a scrapbook. Stick your favorite stamps, pictures and photos in your diary, and write a sentence or a complete paragraph to explain them according to the pictures. Students in this form are both interested and willing to do it. 3) Keep an information diary. Is to write down the most valuable and up-to-date information you see and hear. Keep a weather diary. Is to write down the daily weather, temperature, wind, wind direction and new natural phenological phenomena. 4) Write an excerpt diary. Extract quotations, aphorisms, aphorisms or kind words from famous people you see or read. 5) Keep a study diary. Write down what you learned in the textbook and what you read after class. You are impressed. 6) Keep an activity diary. Write down the visiting activities, Young Pioneers' organizations and various activities, take part in them once, and grasp the main points. 7) Write an experiment diary. For example, planting flowers, sunflowers or scientific production, write down the process and results. 8) Write a thinking diary, also called an experience diary. It is to write down my thoughts and comments on real life, as well as my advantages and disadvantages in study and life, my psychological activities and the process of progress and growth. Diary is a storehouse of primary school students' writing materials and an important way to practice writing. Our teachers should guide students to carefully observe the people, things and things around them, express what they see, hear and think in their diaries, gradually develop good habits of diligent observation, good thinking and more practice in writing, and cultivate excellent qualities such as self-reliance, self-improvement, introspection and self-esteem.
