First, elaborate narrative language.
A picture story without words has only pictures without words, and a picture story with words has concise words, like a few sentences in the story outline. In order to attract children's listening interest, language design must be carried out. Generally speaking, the practice is: understand the graphic content; Appropriately add plots or details to enhance the vividness of the story; Appropriately add onomatopoeia to render the atmosphere; Use some simple and vivid spoken English. ?
Second, clever use of expression skills.
When telling a picture story, we should also use different expression skills according to different styles and colors to improve the appeal of the story.
1, to distinguish two different languages. There is narrative language in the picture story, which objectively explains the cause and effect; There is also role language, which mainly expresses thoughts and feelings and is subjective. When telling, the tone and rhythm of narrative language should be as smooth as possible without exaggeration; In order to express the personality characteristics of different roles, role language needs to reflect the characteristics of roles through the changes of timbre, speech speed and intonation. ?
2. Vividly convey the story emotion. Picture stories describe the world and express emotions through superb picture language and wonderful written language. For example, in "The Witch's Child", Xiaomei was turned into a frog by the Witch's child and happily said when she could jump into the water to save the boat. When you speak, use a soft voice, raise your voice, choose your words carefully, and be lively.
It should be noted that a variety of emotions are intertwined in the picture story, and the expression needs to be coordinated with the rhythm of the picture story itself and grasped as a whole.
3. Guide observation and discover details. When telling a picture story, look at each page of the picture slowly, so that children have time to observe the scenes and details in the picture. For example, when telling "My Mom", children can be guided to find that every picture is covered with red hearts that show maternal love, and there are lightning rods of love on their mother's pajamas, cakes, spacesuits and distant buildings.
Third, appropriately increase interactive links.
1. Interact according to the pictures. One is the picture on the cover. Basically, some story content is hidden, and the interaction at this time allows children to find the background clues of the protagonist and related events in the story. For example, when telling the story "David is in trouble", you can ask "Who is the child in the picture, where is he sitting and where is his eyes looking?" And "Oh, so he's in trouble. What kind of trouble?" With questions, it will arouse the interest of listening.
2. Interact according to the content. The first is simple text, such as "What about Guli and Gula when the egg is so big?" "The fox jumped on the hen rose, and the hen was eaten?" These interactions are conducive to children's observation and thinking. The second is the narrative logic of the story. For example, "What's on the screen, where, what happened and how to solve it later", according to the order of characters, events and results, helps to clarify the story ideas and help children realize creative narrative expression.
