The original text of the moonlight song
More than 200 years ago, there was a musician named Beethoven in Germany. He wrote many famous tunes. Among them, there is a famous piano song called Moonlight, which is said to be composed like this.
One autumn, Beethoven traveled and performed everywhere and came to a small town on the Rhine. One night, he was walking along a quiet path and heard the intermittent piano sound coming from a small room, playing his music.
Beethoven approached the hut, the piano suddenly stopped and someone was talking in the room. A girl said, "How difficult it is to play this song! I've only heard others play it several times, but I don't remember how to play it. If only I could listen to how Beethoven played himself! " A man said, "Yes, but the tickets for the concert are too expensive. We are too poor." The girl said, "Don't be sad, brother, I'm just saying."
Beethoven heard this, pushed open the door and came in quietly. A candle was lit in the hut. In the dim candlelight, men are making leather shoes. There is an old piano in front of the window. In front of it sat a girl of sixteen or seventeen. Her face is delicate, but she is blind.
Seeing a stranger come in, the shoemaker stood up and asked, "Who are you looking for, sir?" ? Wrong door, right? "Beethoven said," no, I'm here to play a tune for this girl. "
The girl quickly stood up and offered her seat. Beethoven sat in front of the piano and played the tune that the blind girl had just played. After listening to God's words, the blind girl played a song and said excitedly, "How skillfully you play! How deep the feelings are! You, you are Mr. Beethoven? "
Beethoven didn't answer. He asked the blind girl, "Do you like listening? Let me play another song for you. "
A gust of wind blew out the candle. The moonlight shone through the window, and everything in the hut seemed to be covered with silver gauze, which made it very quiet. Beethoven looked at the two brothers and sisters standing beside him and pressed the keys in the quiet moonlight.
The shoemaker listened quietly. He seems to face the sea, and the moon rises from where the water meets the sky. On the surface of the microwave, silver light was instantly sprinkled. The moon rose higher and higher, passing through a wisp of gauze-like Wei Yun. Suddenly, a strong wind blew on the sea and rolled up huge waves. The waves brightly illuminated by moonlight rushed to the shore one by one ... The shoemaker looked at his sister. The moonlight shone on her quiet face and her eyes opened wide. She seemed to see something she had never seen before, the rough sea in the moonlight.
Brother and sister were intoxicated by the wonderful piano sound. When they woke up, Beethoven had left the hut. He flew back to the inn and spent the whole night recording the music he just played-Moonlight Song.

Reflections on Moonlight Music Teaching
Moonlight Music tells the legendary story that Beethoven, a famous German musician, played the piano for poor shoemakers because he sympathized with them, and improvised Moonlight Music because of blind girls' obsession with music. With this beautiful and moving story, the author not only shows the great musician Beethoven's sympathy and love for the poor, but also shows his rich imagination and outstanding talent. At the same time, he also told people that the production of beautiful music depends not only on rich imagination, but also on noble and sincere emotions. The article is beautiful in words, feelings and artistic conception, which combines legend, beauty and affection in one furnace.
The teaching emphasis of this paper is: 1. Imagine the scene described in the article; 2. Read the text with emotion.
Teaching difficulty: imagine the scene described in the article.
First, the teaching effect.
Around the teaching objectives of this course, I have achieved the following teaching effects:
1. Create a situation and listen to the beauty of music.
Moonlight music is one of the classic pieces created by Beethoven, and its beautiful melody has fascinated countless music lovers. So when teaching this text, I have let the students listen to this song for three times, and I think it is very important to help them understand the content of the text. The first time I listened to the moonlight song was before the topic was announced. I introduced the new lesson like this: "Students, today we are going to listen to a piece of music. Please guess what it is? " Listening to musicology texts, such a pleasant learning atmosphere is rare, and students' interest in learning doubles; Second, listening to "Moonlight Song" is the ninth natural paragraph to guide students to read the key paragraphs of the text ("The shoemaker listens quietly ... the rough sea"). At this time, let the students read aloud with music that is sometimes soothing and lyrical, and sometimes loud and exciting, and let the students see such a scene in an immersive way: on the sea where the water meets the sky, a full moon Ran Ran rises, and the moon rises higher and higher, passing through a wisp of gauze. Third, listening to moonlight songs is at the end of this article. I said to the students while playing music: "Students, let's listen to Moonlight Song again, spread our imagination wings and end this lesson in a beautiful and smooth melody."
2. Read the text intensively and experience the beauty of the text.
"Moonlight Song" is worth listening to again and again, and the words and expressions in it are worth reading again and again to help students appreciate the beauty of language. For example, when reading the ninth paragraph aloud, students can be guided to grasp the words "water meets the sky", "sparkling", "sparkling", "wisps" and "choppy", so that students can imagine and practice saying, "What kind of picture seems to appear in front of your eyes through these words?" So as to guide students to read this passage with expression and emotion, and realize that the sea is calm-turbulent, the music is stable-high and passionate. At this time, even if students have never heard of Moonlight Song with their own eyes, they can imagine the basic melody of Moonlight Song through lines full of beautiful artistic conception.
3. savor and feel the beauty of love.
Reading the text "Moonlight Song" carefully, we can easily understand the thoughts and feelings that the author wants to express between the lines. For example, when Beethoven heard the conversation between the blind girl's brother and sister and pushed the door into the room, when the blind girl excitedly recognized Beethoven and Beethoven played music for her again, I asked the students to imagine, "What did Beethoven think at that time? What drove him to enter the room again to play music for the blind girl?" At the end of the article, when the two brothers and sisters were intoxicated with music for a long time, I used this to let the students practice saying, "If you were one of the two brothers and sisters, what would you say excitedly to Beethoven's distant figure when you recovered from intoxication?" Through the above imagination exercises, students can fully feel that Beethoven came and went quietly, which brought a wonderful artistic enjoyment and a warm human love to brothers and sisters, and also made students feel the great compassion and lofty feelings of this great musician.
Listening to music, reading articles, and experiencing feelings, moonlight music not only makes students feel the beauty of music and language, but also makes students feel the beauty of human emotions, so that students can get happy aesthetic education from it.
Second, success.
When I was in this class, my greatest success was in the design class. I paid more attention to the children's emotional experience and the creative process of Moonlight, and the picture shown in Moonlight was the embodiment and release of Beethoven's emotional changes. When the children really understand the creative process and really walk into Beethoven's heart like me, I think the emotions reflected in the picture are not difficult to understand.
Through this kind of teaching, students can get corresponding understanding from various senses, deepen their understanding of the text and effectively promote the development of students' thinking and imagination. Mobilizing students' enthusiasm for active learning, stimulating students' strong thirst for knowledge, changing the situation of students waiting for teachers to impart knowledge, eliminating students' dependence on learning and prompting students to explore actively will be the main purpose of my future teaching.
Third, shortcomings
This passage is beautiful and affectionate. When reading aloud, it should be a slow and lyrical tone. Only a few places, such as sentences describing surging clouds, have an impassioned tone. When instructing students to read aloud, we should show the changing degree of characters' thoughts and feelings. For example, the blind girl is eager to listen to Beethoven's performance, the shoemaker has a dull pain because he can't afford tickets, Beethoven's sincerity and enthusiasm when explaining his purpose, and the blind girl's admiration and surprise after listening to a song. You should read all the feelings contained in it. In class, students are eager to finish the teaching task of this class, so reading aloud in some places is not in place. In the future teaching, we will continue to improve and improve to achieve the expected results.
Fourth, improvement measures.
If I take this class again, I will do this: first, create a situational atmosphere to stimulate students' emotions. At the beginning of the lecture, I used situational teaching and played Beethoven's portrait and his famous saying: "My music should only benefit the poor." How happy I would be if I did. " Then play Beethoven's Moonlight Music and introduce the music to Beethoven. Then advocate cooperative learning and cultivate problem consciousness. Let the students sketch the words associated with the shoemaker's listening to the song, learn together, and get a preliminary understanding of the three changes of music, and then play the pictures of moonlight and the sea with multimedia, namely, "The moon rises, the sea is calm", "The moon rises, passes through Wei Yun" and "The moonlight shines, and the clouds are surging". It is accompanied by three sections of moonlight songs corresponding to the moonlight sea-sky map, namely, easy, gradual expansion and high-pitched agitation. Then trace the source of the composition and understand the mood of the characters. Let the students know about the poverty of brother and sister and Beethoven's hatred of inhuman society, which changed Beethoven's mood. Deep sympathy for the poor brothers and sisters, especially for the blind girl who loves and understands music, and understanding her thirst for knowledge are the emotional basis for Beethoven's creation of Moonlight, so that students can understand Beethoven's outstanding talent and her care and love for the working people. Finally, pay attention to imagination and expand the sense of innovation. Show the relevant paragraphs in the article and ask, "Do brothers and sisters really see this wonderful moonlight and sea map?" Then grasp "as if" and "as if" to guide students to further distinguish things from association and realize the conditions and benefits of using association in writing.
