The following is a sample speech about Reading Day compiled by kao.com: an article that fills the campus with the fragrance of books. I hope you will like it!
Dear school leaders:
“Study well, study well, read well.” This is Grandma Bing Xin’s expectation for all children.
Since the opening of the xx National Book Fair, major newspapers have been promoting "Chongqing is popular with books all over the country". Although the publicity work has been done well, judging from the survey report and the actual situation, children The reading situation is not satisfactory.
According to some survey reports, less than 5% of people like to read classics and philosophical stories, while 43.6% like to read comic books, and 43.6% like entertainment magazines. also accounted for 27.4%. I got to know the classmates around me, and they all said: "Masterpieces? Old-fashioned! If you want to keep up with the pace of the times, you must read some fast-paced, funny, and tricky books."
Obviously, the students were too "fashionable" and they obviously misunderstood the meaning of the times. If you want to keep up with the times, you must fill your bag with knowledge. However, students still cannot understand this, because the purpose of primary school students reading is entirely for fun and fun. At present, not many primary school students can read.
The reasons for these problems are:
1. The proliferation of comics, entertainment, and pornographic books. In front of the school, there are many vendors selling such books. Some of the books are only a quarter of the size of a dictionary, foldable, double-sided printing, cost 50 cents a book, and are funny. Of course the students are willing to buy them. Those hawkers are still boasting: "After watching it, you will have artistic and humorous qualities, relax your body and mind, and your academic performance will also improve!"
2. Many people like to chase stars. There are many entertainment magazines that specialize in celebrities. Today’s children already like to chase stars. Of course they can’t put it down when they see this kind of magazine! In school, you can see Jay Chou special issue and Wilber Pan special issue everywhere...
3. Students have no interest in reading. There is nothing gained after reading. Many students told me that they were forced by their parents to read books every day, so I asked them, if they were to acquire knowledge, would you rather get it from TV or books? Most students have chosen the former, but if this continues for a long time, will students still have the ability to express themselves in language? Can overall quality be improved?
Based on the above points, it is recommended to cultivate students' reading interest from the following aspects:
1. Extensively cultivate students' reading interest. Before carrying out any reading-related activities, students must first cultivate their self-awareness of reading. Let the students interact with each other, and let the students in the class who love reading lend the good books they have read to their classmates, or tell the stories in the books to their classmates. The mutual influence between the students will definitely be more effective than what the teacher tells them. The effect is much better. Because there is a common mentality among students: the teacher’s words are educational; students may not necessarily like to read books that the teacher likes to read, after all, there is an age gap.
2. Carry out activities such as "Reading Day", "Reading Experience Exchange Meeting", "Sharing My Good Books with You", "Poetry Recitation Competition" and other activities. (1) Reading day. There are two reading days a week. On that day, students can bring their favorite books to school to make the school full of books. (2) Reading experience exchange meeting. Once every two weeks, students can freely exchange their reading experiences during class meetings. (3) Share my good books with you. Use the free space at the back of the classroom as a library corner so that students can read more good books. (4) Poetry recitation competition. Once every three weeks, the time is scheduled for reading and registration.
3. Help each other. To solve the problem of some students whose families are unable to afford books, we call on students from better-off families to give the books they have read to poor students to ensure that everyone can read the books.
4. I hope the school will add a reading group to the interest group activities. Students who participate in this group go to the school reading room to read for half an hour during extracurricular activities.
Books are the spiritual food of mankind, and books are the ladder of human progress.
Let us work together to truly create an atmosphere of reading. At that time, the fragrance of books will surely permeate the entire campus!
