Indeed, when we watched the Chinese Poetry Conference, we were all impressed by the excellent temperament and full talent of the host Dong Qing and talented woman Wu Yishu. This is probably what Su Dongpo said, "I am full of poetry and enjoy myself"! Which parent doesn't want their children to have such a calm temperament?
Poetry is an important part of Chinese subject, and it is also the accumulation of thousands of years' culture in China. This is the foundation of everyone in China. Only by adhering to the inheritance of Chinese culture can life be deep and the country have a future. Of course, in addition to making children calm and temperament, the four benefits of reciting ancient poems from childhood can not be ignored!
Should children recite ancient poems from childhood? Four reasons for parents, and then decide after reading them. First, recite ancient poems from childhood to improve children's Chinese performance.
In recent years, the state has paid more and more attention to the inheritance of traditional culture in China. In the Chinese reform, the proportion of ancient poetry is also increasing. The whole primary school textbook * * * selected 129 excellent ancient poems, accounting for 30% of all selected texts. There are about 20 ancient poems in each grade on average. However, the number of articles required for Chinese in senior high schools has increased from 14 to 72. Professor Wen Rumin, editor-in-chief of Chinese textbooks, said: "In the future, Chinese will become the killer of the college entrance examination, and it is normal that 0/5% of the candidates in the college entrance examination can't finish writing the papers." It can be seen that reciting ancient poems has become the key content of children's Chinese learning!
Second, recite ancient poems from childhood to enhance memory.
Reciting ancient poems is also helpful to the development of children's memory. A study conducted by Bangor University in England found that when children read ancient poems, there will be a specific brain wave, which can promote the reading-related areas of children's brain and promote the development of children's brain in information processing and memory. Therefore, children who recite ancient poems from childhood often have better memory and understanding than other students.
Thirdly, reciting ancient poems also helps to inspire children's aesthetic consciousness.
The cultivation of aesthetic consciousness is also called aesthetic education. Aesthetic ability is not only the foundation and motivation of innovation, but also a part of healthy personality cultivation. With the change of social requirements for talents, aesthetic ability has gradually become one of children's core competitiveness. The best way to inspire children's aesthetic consciousness and sublimate their aesthetic experience is to let them live in a beautiful environment and be influenced imperceptibly.
Reciting ancient poems is a good way to educate children about beauty. Both the antithetical rhythm of poetry and the beautiful language reflect the beauty of Chinese characters. Reading poems often can create an excellent traditional cultural atmosphere for children. In such an environment, let them accept the cultural influence of classical poetry, and over time, it will naturally stimulate their aesthetic consciousness.
Fourth, reciting ancient poems is very beneficial to exercise children's language ability. Many parents feel very headache for their children's unclear pronunciation. This is because the language center of the child's brain is still immature, and the mastery of pronunciation and semantics is still not proficient. Reciting ancient poems can exercise children's language ability well.
The beauty of poetry lies in its rhythmic beauty and sense of rhythm. Metric poems, in particular, are paired, have the same number of words, and have the characteristics of even words and rhymes at the end. They are cadenced, catchy, rhythmic and rhythmic, and are helpful for children's pronunciation exercise (including pitch, tone and sound).
And children will naturally be attracted by the rhythm of poetry. When parents read poetry word for word and cadently, children will unconsciously imitate it.
Parents should avoid these two points when teaching children to recite poems. First, choose the ancient poems within your child's ability, and don't oppress them.
Parents should be clear that the purpose of reciting ancient poems is to cultivate children's ability, not to pursue the number of words. When choosing ancient poems, we should also try to choose short and rhythmic ones. Such ancient poems are catchy to read and easy to recite, and children will have a sense of accomplishment after reciting them, and they will gradually fall in love with reciting ancient poems.
Parents should not arrange too much recitation of ancient poems and too oppressive attitude, which will not only be detrimental to the healthy development of children's brains, but also make children's learning burden too heavy, thus generating weariness. Parents can choose to integrate ancient poems into their children's daily lives, such as using ancient poems as bedtime stories and telling them in relaxed language.
Second, children are not required to have a deep understanding of ancient poetry.
Many parents think that children's recitation of ancient poetry should be based on a complete understanding of ancient poetry, but it is not so demanding. Many parents may not understand poetry, let alone children. Before reciting ancient poetry, parents can tell their children the superficial meaning of poetry, so that children can have a general impression of the meaning of ancient poetry and have a little room for association.
Not fully understanding ancient poetry does not mean that reading ancient poetry is completely worthless. I remember that before Zhang Wuji left Binghuo Island, Xie Xun forced him to recite a lot of martial arts secrets in "Eternal Dragon Slayer" and said, "Although you don't understand now, remember first that you will understand one day". Many things written down will take root and sprout in your heart. As long as the child has an impression in his mind, he will naturally have a deeper understanding when he encounters and experiences the feelings and scenery in the poem in the future.
