How to teach modern poetry in junior high school
Xia Hong modern poetry teaching in Wuzu Middle School in Huangmei County is an important part of Chinese teaching in middle schools. The simplicity, lyricism and musicality of poetry determine its unique teaching mode and learning method different from other styles. So, how to teach modern poetry? First, pay attention to reading and perceive the unique beauty of Chinese phonology as a whole, which determines that poetry is particularly suitable for reading. In poetry teaching, we should take students as the center and let students read by themselves. Reading aloud is not laissez-faire Teachers should teach students how to read aloud. First, we should read the correct pronunciation, which is the premise of reading, followed by reading rhythm and dealing with stress, and finally reading tone. Reading is also different because of the different poetic style, content and feelings expressed in poetry, and the reading methods are also different. For example, the emotional tone of Ode to the Yellow River is to praise the Yellow River and our nation, so students should pay attention to this poem as a free-form new poem when reading. To understand the author's feelings in poetry, we must deal with rhythm and stress. The priority of rhythm, the severity of pronunciation and the level of intonation are all determined by the emotions expressed in poetry. One is to determine the speed of speech according to emotional needs. If the content is cheerful, excited or nervous, the speed will be faster, and if the content is sad, low or lyrical, the speed will be slower, so Ode to the Yellow River should be read faster. Second, according to the artistic conception of poetry, it is necessary to make sure that the sound is long and short. Generally speaking, words that can clearly express the poet's feelings, including headwords and modifiers, should be stressed. Second, capture images and experience feelings. The famous poet Tao Qian once said: "Teaching a poem is inseparable from the study of ideas, images and artistic conception." "Image is an image borrowed by poets when expressing meaning. Artistic conception is an artistic realm achieved by creating images. " These two sentences briefly expound the profound connotation of poetry, and also tell the truth that grasping images is the basis of poetry teaching. Grasping the main images of poetry is of great help to understand and grasp the connotation of the work. For example, when teaching Yu Guangzhong's homesickness, let students capture the images in the poem: "stamps, boat tickets, graves, straits" to show the poet's deep homesickness respectively. When students capture images, they naturally realize the artistic realm of the integration of the life picture described by the author and the thoughts and feelings expressed. The focus of poetry teaching is sentiment. Only by tasting the language, capturing the image and understanding the artistic conception can we appreciate the thoughts and feelings of poetry. Third, scrutinize the words and taste the language. The language of poetry shows the characteristics of novelty and conciseness. It is not confined to the general grammatical norms and logical structure, and can express one's mind directly, write scenery and express one's feelings directly. The study and appreciation of poetry words can not only better appreciate the value of poetry, but also provide reference for the choice of words and sentences when writing articles. Good poems are often unique in refining meaning, refining words, lettering and cutting sentences, and are full of spirit because of one word. Therefore, teachers should accurately explain, inspire and help students think and appreciate carefully, so that they can gain unique insights. Such as South China Tiger, Trance is worth pondering. Did the tiger make a "rock-breaking roar"? It should be said that there is no, if there is, "I" will really hear, not "trance". Then, the poet's "trance" hearing "the roar of breaking the earth" actually shows the author's own inner unyielding and yearning for transcendence. Fourthly, it is one of the main contents of modern poetry teaching in junior middle school to develop students' imagination and associative ability and feel the artistic conception of works. Artistic conception is the artistic realm achieved by the poet's conception and creation of images. Exerting imagination can bring readers into poetry or a broader artistic conception and further understand poetry. For example, in "Paper Boat", poetry expresses the thoughts and affection for mother through the image of paper boat. Through imagination, we seem to see a daughter who misses her mother constantly folding paper boats and throwing them into the sea. Some were swept to the boat by the wind, and some were wet by the waves and stuck to the bow, but she still folded it happily and threw it. Such a touching picture is the easiest to touch emotions, thus leaving a deep feeling. Fifth, imitate writing practice and apply what you have learned. Curriculum standards attach great importance to reading and writing, and attach importance to the combination of learning and application. Modern poetry teaching also conforms to this law, promoting writing by reading and reading by writing. Teachers should guide students to pay attention that poetry comes from life, which is the poet's perception of life, so we can also express our perception of life in the language of poetry. For example, after learning Golden Flower and Paper Boat, let students imitate the writing of the text to express their love for their parents. Some wrote: "Mom, your love for your son is like a big book without pages, which can never be read." Some wrote: "Mom, the delicious food is eaten in my mouth, and the leftovers are eaten by you; Beautiful new clothes are on me, and you have enjoyed the old clothes for many years alone. "Some students shed tears while reading. Perhaps the students' creation at this time is still immature, but it is this release of true feelings that has cultivated their love for literature, observation of life and understanding of life. This reflects the human nature of China people. Sixth, with the help of the media, it is difficult to stimulate interest in poetry teaching: if you talk too much, the charm of poetry will be gone, and if you talk too little, you will be afraid that students will not understand. It is difficult for students to learn with relish only by the explanation of conventional teaching, and then the advantages of multimedia teaching appear. For example, in the class of Autumn, after briefly introducing the background and author, I let the students enjoy Autumn recited by music. Move the screen to show the scenery depicted in the poem: farmers logging, carrying melons and fruits in baskets, casting nets on the river, fishermen paddling, etc. With the help of these audio-visual effects, students' interest in learning can be stimulated and their potential can be brought into full play, so that students can appreciate the feelings expressed by the poets and the theme of the poem more easily.
