"Three Chapters of Mencius" is arranged in the sixth unit of the first volume of the eighth grade of the unified textbook. The humanistic theme of this unit is "human character and interest". Several ancient poems of the unit answered this question from different angles. Therefore, I also put this theme through it when preparing lessons. Let students feel the wisdom and mind of the ancients in classic works. This is also in line with the requirements of cultivating the core literacy of "cultural inheritance and understanding".
But after all, Chinese class is not a political class, so we can't put ideas first and values first. It is necessary to achieve cultural infiltration on the basis of language construction and application, so that students can appreciate the core ideas and humanistic spirit of Chinese culture. Confucianism is undoubtedly a cultural factor flowing in the blood of every China. Many words in Three Chapters of Mencius are familiar to students before they learn them, and these sentences have already become famous aphorisms handed down from generation to generation. Although it talks about the way of governing the country, it has also been regarded as a life criterion by countless ancient literati, and it has become a famous saying of determination and discipline, which still has far-reaching influence. These spirits have created countless people with lofty ideals and the backbone of the Chinese nation. However, with a long history, students' own life experience is not enough. How to guide them into the thoughts of saints and China people step by step, so as to turn them into nutrition, I think this is an activity that we urgently need to think and design in class. For modern students, the cultivation of values is no longer single. Some values conveyed by the internet and the media are worth a year's school education in one minute. This is an opportunity, we will find that they already know a lot now, but it is difficult to go deep. Few students can think deeply. In the face of such a current situation and such a learning situation, it is useless to instill it. When we design problems, we can only consider the guiding role of this article or this idea to them from the perspective of students and their age level. Only in this way can students better understand and accept. If we only summarize and guide from the perspective of adults, the effect may not be obvious.
How to become a popular person is related to the students' own way of doing things, and they can get more help while losing help. This question is very important for the students in Grade Two. Because now junior high school students face the confusion of making friends far beyond our imagination. Some children use violence to solve problems, but they don't know how to be kind to others, let alone the truth of "harmony between people" They think that force can solve all problems. People are like this, so is the atmosphere of a class. Only when people are harmonious and happy can the class develop in a positive direction. From the perspective of moral education, this is also an education for students' interpersonal communication. After this question is put forward, students will think, and teachers don't need to sum up too much and spread it out too much. I wonder if this is real teaching?
For the study of "wealth can't be lewd", we will find that students can remember what a gentleman's spirit is, but they all say it is difficult to really set it on themselves. Many students say that they are not so ambitious and ambitious, and they can't meet Mencius' standard of integrity. They just want to be ordinary people. At this time, we will find that the students' understanding of "ordinary people" is a bit biased. They think that ordinary people don't need to be strict with themselves, and their moral integrity is very high. At this time, I can only set the question as "How can I be an ordinary person?" Ordinary people should also have their own persistence, their own ideal goals, and the standards of being a man. Although ordinary people can't be the backbone of the nation, they are the basic components of national construction. Most basically, ordinary people also have their own independent personalities. Independent from the outside world, material, others, independent and creative. It is not easy to do the work of ordinary people.
Born in sorrow and died in happiness, a middle school student is very familiar with the sentences "Heaven will take great responsibility in Sri Lanka, so he must first suffer from his mind, strain his bones and muscles, starve his body and skin, empty his body and confuse his actions". How can we make them have a more personal experience? So I introduced Li Yuanyuan's speech "The Noble Son of a Poor Family". The talent shared in students' homework is created in a difficult environment, but not all poor people can become precious children. You have to go through tempering and your own efforts. I think they can understand that this level is already a kind of character education.
Excerpted from a student's homework: "Everyone has something he should guard and wants to guard, and what he should guard is called responsibility;" What you want to protect is called ideal. This thing to be protected can be very big or very small. Protecting what you already have is called right. Protecting what should not be protected is called kindness. Guarding what you don't have is called pursuing. "It is very happy for a teacher that a junior two student can think deeply about what is' responsibility' and what is' ideal' and think clearly. Although most students can't think so deeply, we must believe that people will always grow up, and all we have to do is wait and guide slowly. Starting from every unit and article, starting from a small place, helping students develop good aesthetic taste and healthy personality, and making them ordinary and extraordinary people.
