I am a mother born in the 1980s, and the education of my children has always been the most concerned thing in my heart.
In the morning, my daughter and I went for a walk in the park. Suddenly, a breeze blew by, a cluster of flowers swayed in the wind, and a burst of fragrance hit the nostrils, making people feel relaxed and happy. I said: "It smells so good!" My daughter couldn't help but said: "The flowers are so beautiful!" At this time, a middle-aged man came over, picked up the fertilizer and poured it into a small bucket, opened the faucet and filled it with water, and concentrated on watering the flowers. of roots. My daughter added: "It is precisely because of his hard work that the flowers bloom energetically after watering them, allowing us to enjoy such beautiful scenery." His labor is the most beautiful, I said.
There are many beautiful things around us. As long as we pay more attention, we will find beauty. We all hope that our children will grow up in happiness and enjoy a happy life, so helping children develop certain aesthetic abilities and establish correct aesthetics from an early age is a good medicine to promote their healthy personality and healthy psychological development. Cultivate children's ability to feel beauty and cultivate beautiful sentiments.
In the process of learning, children can not only gain a feeling of beauty and improve their ability to appreciate beauty, but also be influenced and infected by truth, goodness and beauty. They can establish lofty revolutionary ideals for children and shape beautiful Mind, cultivating noble sentiments plays a very important role. How to train children to discover beauty, feel beauty, and create beauty? Take a look at the following points:
French sculptor Rodin once said: "There is no lack of beauty in life, but the lack of eyes to discover beauty."
Reminds me of a story. A writer went to a mountainous area to experience life. He was immediately attracted by the beautiful mountains and clear waters, the singing of birds and the fragrance of flowers. He felt relaxed and happy and never wanted to return. On the way, she met an old farmer who was working, and said with joy and emotion: "The scenery here is so beautiful, how happy it is to live here!" Unexpectedly, the old farmer's words shocked her: "Our ancestors have lived here for generations, and we have also lived here for generations. I don’t realize where the beauty is!” Although everyone likes beautiful things, some people feel beautiful while others are indifferent to the same thing. It may be that generations of hard life have made the old farmer only focus on the "meal on the plate", and his nerves for the aesthetics of scenery have long been numb. The thing that can make him feel "beautiful" may just be a sumptuous banquet.
Today, the living standards of the vast majority of families are already above the level of subsistence and clothing. Under today’s living conditions, if we still limit our education thinking to the thinking level of old farmers, we will not be able to discover the surrounding people. Beauty, then it would be a waste of the high-quality conditions and beautiful environment that modern life has given us.
In the morning, I saw another piece of news. In Suifenhe, Heilongjiang, the epidemic struck again. Two medical staff wearing thin protective suits were standing shivering in the cold wind downstairs in the community. People shouted at them to come inside to warm themselves up, but they refused to come in. It turned out that they had just completed nucleic acid sampling for close contacts in the community. Although they had been disinfected, they were still afraid of bringing danger to others, so they insisted on standing outside and waiting for the ambulance to pick them up. "It's okay if it's cold. Your safety is the most important. No matter how cold it is, we have to persevere." There was not a pretentious word, not a trace of complaint. Although it is a freezing winter of minus 20 degrees, there are still people silently guarding us, guarding a city, and guarding our common home.
Those small but not insignificant characters, those ordinary but extraordinary stories, those real but quiet moments that illuminate the world, even in the cold winter, these small blessings are enough to warm a city.
Mr. Ye Shengtao also has a famous saying: "As long as you start picking, you will find crystal clear gems at any time." It can be seen that cultivating children's ability to feel beauty is mainly through observation. A child's heart is simple and pure, and his vision is pure and flawless. The natural environment is the natural condition given by nature to organisms for life. Nature is colorful and varied, and is full of mysteries. Its shapes, colors, sounds, and lights , air, sunlight, land, etc. We should guide children to observe and experience beauty in nature, which is both real and vivid. It can enable children to broaden their horizons, enrich their knowledge, and develop their intelligence. The world is like a colorful and ever-changing kaleidoscope. The rich and colorful nature, human society and life are inexhaustible sources of beauty, and they are also objects of observation.
Last week, my daughter made snowflake clay paintings. I was not satisfied with half of it and wanted to do it again. I was reading a book, glanced at it casually, and said excitedly: "It's so beautiful! The craftsmanship is good!" After hearing this, my daughter completed it with confidence. Every child's work is a unique idea, and we cannot give scores to children's works arbitrarily. We must learn to listen to children's voices, support children, encourage children, stimulate children's thinking, and learn to appreciate works from a child's perspective.
The feeling of beauty varies from person to person. Every child is an individual worthy of respect, and every individual has differences. Therefore, when children have unique feelings, only we recognize the individual’s Only when we understand the differences can we feel relieved and truly appreciate each child's unique feelings. In the adult world, uniqueness seems to be special, but in children, uniqueness may mean incomprehension.
In life, we will question some unique thoughts and feelings, such as: children's graffiti. At some point, we cannot understand. Even if the children tell some stories that make us unbelievable, we actually do not respect the children's unique feelings. , I hope we have a mentality of understanding and respect.
What is beauty? Everyone has a different interpretation. But no matter what angle it is explained from, the beauty in life must be natural and harmonious. Children have different beauties. Their youthful faces are full of hope, their pure temperament is filled with the fragrance of books, and their ideal of seeking knowledge is the wings for flying. Therefore, let children understand what beauty is and learn the beauty of identity and hope in knowledge. Our responsibility is to guide and educate children to understand inner beauty. Harmonious beauty is the real beauty.
Let children discover beauty, feel beauty, create beauty, practice beauty, and pass on beauty. If we want to achieve all of this, we should set an example and start from the family!
