The art of introducing classical Chinese to stimulate interest in high school classical Chinese teaching

Classical Chinese teaching is an important part of high school Chinese teaching. There are five required high school Chinese textbooks published by the People's Education Press, each of which has a unit of classical Chinese teaching, and the selected texts are all classics. Learning classical Chinese well will help inherit the essence of traditional Chinese culture. Although high school students have been exposed to a lot of classical Chinese, because classical Chinese is esoteric and difficult to understand compared to modern literature, and there is a big language barrier, many students are afraid of learning classical Chinese and are tired of learning. Therefore, teaching classical Chinese requires stimulating students' interest in learning. The famous Russian writer Leo Tolstoy once said: "Successful teaching requires not coercion, but stimulating students' interest." It can be seen that a strong interest in learning can make students have a strong interest in the knowledge they have learned. The desire for knowledge will prompt students to mobilize all their senses and invest in learning. In this state, students can not only maintain a sense of pleasure in the act of learning itself, learn proactively, but also better absorb the knowledge they have learned.

As the saying goes, a good start is half the battle. Yu Yi said: "In classroom teaching, to cultivate and stimulate students' interest, we should first grasp the link of introducing the text, and firmly attract students as soon as the class starts." This is like a musician setting the first note. , can find the correct key of music. It is especially important to "set the key" before class. Therefore, "introducing new courses" occupies a very important position in the classroom teaching organization structure. When teaching classical Chinese, teachers should carefully design and select entry points for effective classroom teaching activities based on the characteristics and content of classical Chinese, improve the artistry of "introducing new lessons", stimulate students' strong desire and interest in inquiry, and guide students to learn effectively. . There are many ways to introduce new courses.
