The ever-changing modern society has higher and higher requirements for talents and people's reading ability, and the task of reading teaching is becoming more and more arduous. Because reading in reading teaching is, for students, a process of learning to understand language, mastering reading methods, acquiring knowledge, improving understanding, developing thinking, and enriching thoughts and feelings. Therefore, reading teaching not only shoulders the above-mentioned important tasks, but also requires students to like reading, read easily, and feel the joy of reading. Let’s talk about how to cultivate students’ reading ability:
1. Cultivate students’ interest in reading
Confucius, the great educator in ancient my country, once said, “Those who know well are not as good as those who know well. "It can be seen that interest is the best teacher and the motivation for people to engage in any activity. Only when students are interested in reading can they have an active need for extracurricular reading from the bottom of their hearts, can they reduce their fatigue and learn more about it." Only by treating reading as a kind of enjoyment can you feel the joy of reading and get twice the result with half the effort. So how can we make students feel interested in reading?
1. Recommend suitable reading materials that students like.
A. Recommend reading materials based on students’ actual conditions. Lower-grade students like vivid images and lively content, and we can recommend them to read fairy tales, fables, cartoons, animations and other lively and interesting reading materials; middle-grade students like stories with twists and turns and vivid plots, and we can recommend them to read historical stories, folk books, etc. Stories, science fiction novels and other fascinating reading materials; these reading materials are easy for students to understand and gain from reading, so as to enjoy the happiness of success and the joy of reading. Senior students like content that is both elegant and interesting. We can recommend them to read popular science, famous works and other exquisite and exemplary reading materials, such as "World Famous Fairy Tales", "Biographies of Celebrities", "Journey to the West", "Childhood" and other world famous works, so that students can draw spiritual nourishment from the extensive and profound Chinese and foreign cultures. This not only enriches students' extracurricular life, but also expands their knowledge horizons and develops a good sense of language. The most important thing is to improve their own Chinese literacy, and also Let students feel the endless joy of reading.
B. Recommend readings according to teaching needs. Guide students to read articles related to the text, which not only helps to understand the text, but also helps to accumulate language. More importantly, it helps to develop reading habits and interest in reading. For example, if you have studied "The Battle of Red Cliff", it is recommended to read "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" and "Travel to Red Cliff" in the self-reading textbook; if you have read "Jingyanggang", it is recommended to read "Water Margin", and if you have studied "The Monkey King", it is recommended Read "Journey to the West"; studied "The Little Match Girl", and recommend "Andersen's Fairy Tales"... In addition, you can recommend various books, newspapers and magazines suitable for primary school students to read, such as "Youth Literature", "Youth Digest", etc. In this way, students will not read blindly and excessively, and they will not be afraid of reading because they cannot understand it.
2. The forms of reading should be diverse
A. Read and draw
After students read, they always have an urge to express themselves. According to the characteristics of primary school students who like to graffiti, you can try to let the children draw the plot of the story they read, with text descriptions of course, and then hold art exhibitions from time to time so that students can appreciate each other's paintings, so as to feel the success of reading and the joy of creation.
B. Read and act
Primary school students have strong performance potential and desire to express themselves, so teachers should guide students to adapt what they read into textbook plays and fairy tales. etc., and use class meetings to perform textbook plays, fairy tale plays, etc., and create every opportunity to provide students with a stage to show themselves.
C. Read and tell
Storytelling is one of students’ favorite activities, so “story meetings” should be held frequently to provide students with opportunities to tell. , in order to motivate students, the "story king" can be judged every time.
D. Read and compare
Reading aloud can stimulate students’ interest in reading and improve students’ interest in reading. Therefore, poetry recitals should be held frequently to compare Compare who reads the best, so that students can feel the fun of reading and develop a good sense of language in the emotional reading.
E. Conduct reading report meetings
Use class meetings and other after-school time to hold reading report meetings from time to time. Students can talk freely about their favorite books and their favorite books. The characters, plots, the most touching moments, the feelings and gains from reading, etc.
3. Organize students to watch film and television dramas adapted from classics.
With classic classics such as "Journey to the West", "Water Margin" and "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" appearing on the screen, students will read Interest in classics is rising. We seized this opportunity to carry out the "Watching TV, Reading Classics" activity in the class, encouraging students to exchange their own feelings and opinions about viewing, and to read and appreciate the classic passages in the reading class. To improve students' reading appreciation level. Let students feel the eternal charm of classics through viewing, and thus feel the meaning and value of reading.
Through the above activities, we can stimulate students’ desire for expression, develop students’ personality strengths and hobbies, and encourage students’ personalized experience and expression, thereby stimulating students’ greatest interest in reading and making reading a pleasure for students. The enjoyment becomes a stage for students to show themselves.
2. Guidance to strengthen reading
The ancients said: "It is better to teach someone to fish than to teach him to fish." There is a similar discussion in the West: "Mastering the correct method equals success. Half. "Teachers can never finish the vast amount of information and literature. They can only teach students certain learning methods, cultivate their reading ability and self-study ability, and let them use certain tools to explore, analyze, and experience their talents on their own. benefit. There are many methods and ways to guide reading:
1. Teach reading methods and cultivate reading ability
While recommending good books, we should strengthen guidance on extracurricular reading methods and improve reading skills. The main methods are:
A. Reading aloud. The "Course Standards" particularly emphasize the strengthening of reading aloud, and it runs through the goals of each academic stage, that is, it requires correct, fluent and emotional reading in Mandarin. Therefore, we must make full use of the time in Chinese class to guide reading, so that students can start a new day with the sound of books and spend every day happily in the sound of books.
B. Silent reading. Silent reading is the brain's reflection of words. It only uses the eyes and the brain to understand the meaning of the words. The entire activity is carried out silently inside the human brain, eliminating the need for oral vocalization and reading. Ear monitoring is therefore much faster. Also avoid lip-reading when reading silently, because although lip-reading does not produce a sound, it will also affect the reading speed. When reading silently, you can think while reading.
C. Intensive reading. The so-called intensive reading method is a reading method that concentrates on certain key articles in books and newspapers, and carefully reads them word by word from the outside to the inside. Yuan Cheng Duanli said: "First learn each sentence word by word, then understand the meaning of one sentence, and then understand the meaning of a chapter, and continue to do it one after another, and perform the text clearly, killing two birds with one stone." This is the traditional three-step intensive reading method. It is the most important and basic means to cultivate students' reading ability. Some articles have meaningful language, quotations from classics, and vivid plots. Teachers can use these works as materials to guide students to read intensively, requiring students to devote themselves wholeheartedly to mobilizing multiple senses, so that they can be heard with mouth, eyes, heart, and hands while reading. , think, and annotate, and gradually develop a good habit of serious reading.
D. Skimming does not require reading the readings sentence by sentence, but focuses on key paragraphs and key sentences in order to quickly grasp the ideological context and opinions of the readings. Often skip reading is adopted, scanning from the beginning to the end of the paragraph in order to quickly grasp the central sentence of the paragraph and then grasp the main idea of ??the whole text. The purpose of this kind of reading is to understand the whole article and get the essence.
Regarding the reading method of skimming, Tao Yuanming once discussed in "The Biography of Mr. Wuliu": "A good reader does not seek a deep understanding. Whenever he understands something, he happily forgets to eat." Correctly master the method of skimming. , can greatly improve the efficiency of acquiring knowledge, and is an indispensable reading method in learning and research.
E. Browsing. Browsing is to have a rough browse of the "Summary of Contents" and "Table of Contents" of the book to understand the outline of the book so as to determine whether to read the whole book or select some chapters to study.
F. Skip reading. During the reading process, you can skip the content you don’t want to read based on actual needs or your own interests.
G. Speed ??reading. The speed reading method is to quickly observe the overview of the books and newspapers you are reading without pronouncing them, reading them, or changing your eyes.
This requires students to concentrate and process and digest information quickly during quick browsing. In ancient my country, there was a saying of "loving the ancients and being keen on reading" and "reading all ten lines", which shows that speed reading ability has been promoted for a long time. By using the speed reading method, you can get as much information as possible in the least amount of time. Today's science is advancing by leaps and bounds, life is changing with each passing day, and people's pace of life is also accelerating, which inevitably requires our work to be both quality and timely. If our students can only read carefully word by word, it will be difficult for them to adapt to the needs of a rapidly developing society. Therefore, it is a wise choice to teach students to use speed reading method according to their own reading needs.
H. Take notes. You can take notes on good words and sentences on cards, and then categorize them after a period of time.
I. Side note, if you bought the book yourself. You can write down your reading experience in the book. You can make notes on words, sentences and paragraphs, or you can make notes on the whole book at the end of the article.
People often say, "There is a road to the mountain of books, and hard work is the path, and there is no limit to the sea of ??learning, and hard work is the boat." However, if students master the method of reading and learn to read, it will no longer be "hard work on the boat." , but "happy boating", you will regard reading as a kind of pleasure, you will work diligently and tirelessly to climb the towering mountain of books, and wander in the ocean of knowledge intoxicatedly.
2. Give a good reading class (teaching reading class)
Under the guidance of the new "Curriculum Standards", teachers should change their teaching concepts, return the classroom to the students, and return the classroom to the students. For reading, make the Chinese reading class a veritable reading class. Students should be guided to read well, read beautifully, understand from reading, taste from reading, and appreciate from reading. Reading should be used instead of teaching, and reading should be used instead of asking, so that students can think while reading, read while thinking, discover through thinking, comprehend through discovery, grow through understanding, and grow through fun. For example, when reading a text for the first time, in the overall perception stage, students should be guided to read the text correctly and fluently; when reading the text again, in the questioning stage, there are doubts about learning, and questions are the key to thinking. Therefore, students should be guided to think while reading and come up with different ideas. Understand the problems; select the problems and focus on the study stage, which focuses on guiding students to understand the text and solve problems through reading; in the overall review stage, teachers should guide students to comprehend thoughts, sublimate feelings, and read the text emotionally. After students understand the content of the text, experience the emotions in the text, and feel the beauty of the article, they will actively engage in it and arouse a strong interest in reading. What is needed at this time is to read aloud to their heart's content and fully enjoy the reading. Savor the chant. Therefore, we should let students use their own way to read appreciatively, read intoxicatedly, read beautifully, read freely, read out feelings, read out taste, read out wonderful things, and finally achieve the internalization of language and the cultivation of language sense. , sublimation of emotions, improvement of aesthetic ability and leap in ideological realm. At each stage, the purpose must be to respect students' unique feelings, experiences, understandings, and emotions in the reading process. In short, in the 40-minute class, teachers create a platform for students to show themselves, give them opportunities to discover, and encourage them. Boldly question, advocate being "unconventional" in questioning, and discover your own unique insights.
3. Guide students to learn to think
Teach students how to self-study, and more importantly, teach students how to think. Human thinking activities are carried out on the basis of language materials. Without language, thinking cannot be carried out, so thinking training is always closely linked to language training. Teachers should be good at exploring potential intelligent factors in texts and teach students how to think, so that students can learn to read independently, think independently, understand independently, and evaluate independently, cultivate reading ability, and feel the joy of reading.
Third, guide students in extracurricular reading and broaden students' horizons
"Books are the ladder of human progress." The "New Curriculum Standards" also points out: "Read widely various types of reading materials, the total amount of extracurricular reading should be no less than 2.6 million words, and read two or three classics every school year." Extracurricular reading can not only broaden students' horizons, increase their accumulation, but also improve their Students' Chinese literacy lays a good foundation for their lifelong reading and writing. The most important thing is that extracurricular reading is carried out by students in a free, unfettered and unburdened mental state, so students are very interested and obsessed with extracurricular reading. Drunk, fully enjoying the freedom and joy of reading.
Then teachers should also provide guidance for students’ extracurricular reading:
1. Guide students to choose books and recommend excellent extracurricular books
Opening a book is not necessarily beneficial, reading must be selective. Only by reading good books can we cultivate our sentiments, purify our thoughts, improve our cultivation, and expand our knowledge. Therefore, teachers should recommend to students books and periodicals that are healthy in mind, highly informative, and conducive to their healthy growth: famous Chinese and foreign works such as "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms", "Journey to the West", "Andersen's Fairy Tales", "Childhood" etc., books and magazines such as "Reading", "Extracurricular Reading", "Children's Literature", "Juvenile Literature", "Chinese Newspaper", etc.
2. Instruct students to take notes on reading.
"There is no reading without writing." "Notes can not only enhance memory, but also make people smart" (Bacon's words). Therefore, students should develop the habit of taking reading notes, excerpting good words and sentences, and recording their reading experience while reading. Moreover, reading notes can also urge you to read carefully, clarify your thoughts, and grasp the reading content. There are many forms of reading notes:
A. Excerpt type, which excerpts good words, sentences, beautiful fragments, and famous aphorisms from the reading materials.
B. Cut-and-paste method, cut out some favorite articles and pictures from your own books and newspapers, and paste them into volumes by category;.
C. Handwritten newspaper style, using pictures and words to express the reading content in an interesting way.
D. Outline format, guide students to summarize the content, thoughts and feelings of the article in concise language.
E. Questioning style, recording difficult questions during the reading process;.
F. Experience type, record the feelings, insights and opinions while reading.
G. Imitation style, learn how to describe the materials you read, and imitate people, things, objects, sceneries, etc.
3. Guidance in writing reading experiences
Chinese teaching emphasizes the combination of reading and writing. Students broaden their horizons and accumulate knowledge through extracurricular reading and extensive reading. Therefore, teachers should guide students to write down their reading experience, or a few words of comments or comments about the people, events, paragraphs and writing methods that they feel most deeply, or their feelings after reading. Every bit of it is a gain for students and should be written down. Over time, it will help improve their writing and reading skills, and allow students to feel the fun of dialogue with the text.
In short, Chinese language teaching can only truly improve students' reading ability and cultivate students' rich literary literacy through the combination of classroom teaching and extracurricular reading. Only with the humanistic spirit can students feel the joy of reading and gain success in reading, so that students can enjoy the joy of success and the joy of reading, and create a new realm of Chinese teaching.
