How to teach modern poetry well?

A large number of modern poems have been compiled in the Chinese textbooks of the new curriculum standard, and the introduction of poems has brought immeasurable positive influence. It can cultivate students' interest in reading poetry and understand the basic characteristics and types of poetry; Let students be influenced by noble sentiments and interests, develop their personality and enrich their spiritual world; Cultivate students' aesthetic taste, cultivate students' mentality and enrich students' emotions; Cultivate positive appreciation attitude, stimulate appreciation interest and improve the literary appreciation ability of poetry; Cultivate students' imagination and associative ability, feel the artistic conception and image of the work, appreciate the artistic charm of the work and understand the ideological and emotional connotation of the work; Broaden students' minds, beautify their hearts and cultivate their ability to appreciate literary works. By guiding students to taste the charm and artistic conception skills of poetic language, we can cultivate the ability to use the language succinctly and accurately. At the same time, it can develop students' thinking ability in images and aesthetic ability. Constantly improve your expression reading level. So how to adapt to the changes of new textbooks, follow the requirements of Chinese curriculum standards and engage in the teaching of modern poetry? The following combined with specific teaching practice, talk about my superficial understanding of poetry teaching:

First of all, carefully design the lead.

Bring students into the artistic conception described in the poem, so that their hearts will be strongly shocked from the beginning and produce emotional singing. When I was studying Ai Qing's poem "I Love This Land", because the students' understanding of War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression is not comprehensive enough, it is not easy to put their feelings into it, so at the beginning of the class, I said this sentence: "Who doesn't love his mother and who doesn't love his motherland! Through time and space, there is only one emotion that can connect the hearts of the nation, and that is deep love for the motherland! As early as 1938, the famous poet Ai wrote a patriotic love song for the motherland with tears and sincere feelings-"I love this land!" Through this introduction, the students are brought to the smoke-filled anti-Japanese battlefield, and the people, the whole nation and the whole nation are United to fight for their homeland and country, which produces a strong * * * sound in students' psychology, and learning enters a state, so it is much easier to understand the main idea of this poem.

Second, strengthen reading training.

The ancients said "poetic" means that poetry constructs aesthetic images and expresses the poet's strong and concise feelings with the help of sentences with rhythm and musical beauty. Through reading aloud, let students experience the momentum, charm and emotion of poetry, thus edifying students' sentiment. The so-called "you can read a book a hundred times, and you can see its meaning" and the so-called "you can recite 300 Tang poems if you can't write" all point out the importance of reading teaching. According to different styles of poetry, we can choose different reading methods, such as teacher demonstration reading, individual reading, chorus reading, score reading, role reading and so on. Let students get scientific and effective training while reading, studying and thinking. Create an atmosphere of reading aloud and guide students to get better and better. Recitation should pay attention to methods, and teachers should strengthen guidance in this regard. If you are reading for the first time, you can read correctly, fluently and emotionally in Mandarin. Repetition, overall understanding, grasp its rhythm and feelings, can express different feelings with the change of pronunciation and intonation; Be able to express the content and emotion of the work in different ways of pause and rereading. Generally speaking, for poetry, students should be instructed to read aloud, read emotional colors, read fluently and be familiar with them; When you need to emphasize the key words, sentences and paragraphs in the text, you should guide the students to read them together. Let students appreciate the beautiful words of an article; When appreciating its artistic features, students should be guided to read freely. Of course, reading with higher requirements for poetry can be personalized according to the ideological content of the work, and it must be after a deeper understanding and grasp of the content. Therefore, teachers should guide students to grasp the feeling of reading by tasting the language of poetry, and be full of reading desire. At the same time, it should be noted that recitation should not only be the beginning of teaching, but should run through the whole process of poetry teaching. It can be said that every link of poetry teaching is inseparable from recitation, and different recitation requirements should be put forward according to the teaching tasks of each step.

Third, give play to imagination and association and mobilize thinking in images.

The world in poetry is different from the objective world in real life. They are always "transformed" by poets intentionally or unintentionally, and cast the poet's emotional color in specific situations. To understand the poet's feelings, we must first enter the world of poetry. Every poem is a representation of the objective world in the poet's mind, which is branded with the poet's own thoughts and feelings to a greater or lesser extent. Reading poetry goes through such a process: the poem in the poet's heart-the poem on paper-the poem in the reader's heart. Therefore, to appreciate poetry, we must first enter the author's inner world, and then combine our own life experience to understand the connotation of poetry and taste it. There is a key link in this, which is association and imagination. Teachers can consciously guide students to associate and imagine in teaching, such as "Please close your eyes and listen carefully to the poet's affectionate words to see what pictures have been formed in your mind?" Ask the students to describe the pictures in their minds. After this part of the teaching, most students can think and say something in combination with the content of the poem. Of course, what the students say at this time is not entirely the content of the poem, but always with their own understanding and perception of life. In modern poetry teaching, through such training, students' thinking in images can be activated, so that they can better taste poetry and painting and cultivate their oral description ability. Students add their own feelings in association and imagination to stimulate creativity to varying degrees.

Fourth, contact the students' reality and guide them to get a unique life and emotional experience.

In modern poetry teaching, we should pay attention to guiding students to pay attention to the connection between Chinese and life. Of course, life here includes three aspects: society, nature and life. In teaching, teachers must pay attention to guiding students to learn poetry in connection with life, fully mobilize students' life accumulation, and let them express their unique feelings about life, so as to understand the connotation of poetry more deeply. Because each student's life experience is different, his understanding of the content of the article is also different. "Poets think alike, and readers are complacent about their feelings." In poetry teaching, we should pay special attention to students' unique experience of poetry connotation according to their own life experiences, which may generate creative sparks. Teachers can consciously set such opportunities in teaching. For example, please read your favorite poems aloud to your classmates and explain the reasons for liking them; Please find out the poems or words that you think are better written and briefly explain the reasons. After many times of practice, in this case, students can find something and have wonderful and original opinions from time to time, especially the understanding of words and expressions, which is often concrete and profound. Through such study, students' personality can be publicized. Sometimes, after finding the key to the whole poem, we can find a small entry point close to students' life and emotion as a wedge to enter a poem. We should respect students' unique and personalized interpretation of works and even guide students to have a unique reading experience. The new curriculum standard points out that "reading appreciation of literary works is often more subjective and personal, and students should be encouraged to actively and creatively construct the meaning of the text", especially poetry. Connecting with students' reality is not to fall into students' life reality, cognitive reality and emotional experience everywhere, but to prevent the tendency of vulgarization of poetry.

Fifth, taste the language and increase your knowledge.

The language of poetry is different from the daily spoken language and ordinary prose language, but it is novel and concise, not constrained by the general grammatical norms and logical structure, and can directly penetrate people's hearts when describing scenery and expressing feelings. The language of poetry is concise, concise, concise and expressive. We instruct students to read poetry. Through the study and appreciation of poetry words, students can not only better appreciate the value of poetry, but also provide students with experience in choosing words and making 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. People often say that the word "green" in Spring Breeze and Green Jiang Nanan is well used, but it is vivid: it vividly depicts the scene of spring breeze blowing, grass blooming and vitality, and the word "green" implies the poet's joy at the arrival of spring. Therefore, I want to elaborate on the word "one word"; Students are inspired by "inspiration" in the word "one character", and through careful thinking and appreciation, they can get a unique feeling. In class, we extract a key word from one or several sentences in the poem. Students compare the thin poem with the original poem, repeatedly experience the missing words, and integrate into their own imagination and feelings. They can easily feel that analyzing the language of poetry is very important for them to perceive poetry in a scenic and perceptual way.

Sixth, grasp the image of poetry and understand the poet's feelings.

"Image" is an objective thing that is integrated with the poet's subjective feelings and thoughts. Zheng Min has a very accurate metaphor. She said, "If a poem is a prefabricated building, then the image is a prefabricated board." It is pointed out that image is the basic component of poetry, and poetry is also an organically combined image system. It can be said that image is the basic element of poetry, and it is also the basic feature to distinguish poetry from non-poetry. Without imagery, poetry becomes straightforward and has explanatory power, in other words, it can't be called poetry. In a sense, image is the tangible soul of poetry, and grasping the image of a poem is equivalent to getting a golden key to interpret it. The thoughts and feelings that the author wants to express are often expressed through some concrete things in poetry, which are images. Grasping this point will help us quickly understand the feelings that the poet wants to express. For example, Ai Qing's poem I love this land, land, river, wind, dawn and so on. These are all objective things, but as soon as the poem enters, it injects the writer's feelings, which are the images in the poem. These images symbolize the specific content: "the land hit by the storm" symbolizes the land and people hit by war, poverty and suffering, and "the river of grief and indignation" symbolizes the suffering nation. By understanding the symbolic meaning of these images, we can appreciate the poet's deep patriotic feelings. I also saw the image of a poet full of deep and passionate patriotism.

Seven, imitate writing poetry, apply what you have learned.

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. Of course, this writing has the nature of imitation and reference. Parody can be in various forms, such as continuous parody of example sentences and whole paragraph parody of example poems. When imitating writing, we should pay attention to expressing our unique feelings and life experiences by means of association, imagination, metaphor and parallelism.

After all, poetry is a poet's artistic expression of life and one of the most typical literary forms. Poetry teaching is also a creative work. To say that a good poem is an artistic creation requires us to constantly improve our ideological level and professional ability, give play to the original spirit, and constantly explore and reform in teaching, so that modern poetry teaching will gradually move towards a scientific and artistic track.
