Books are the crystallization of human civilization and wisdom, the treasure house of knowledge, the mentor and friend of children, and the guide of children's life. Classroom teaching is the main learning channel for young pioneers, while extracurricular reading can enrich and expand the content of classroom learning. Doing a good job in young pioneers' extracurricular reading and cultivating their good reading habits will play a good role in deepening children's understanding of classroom teaching content, broadening their horizons, improving their interest and cultivating their self-study ability. Squadron counselors should pay full attention to this work and pay attention to the following issues in specific activities: (1) Pay attention to stimulating children's reading interest. Interest is the best teacher. Only by arousing children's interest in reading can the reading activities of the Young Pioneers receive good results. 1. Children can draw or cut and paste books and periodicals posters by themselves. With the help of librarians and art teachers, young pioneers can draw posters, cut and paste the writer's head on the wall newspaper, and attach the writer's life and main works. 2. Hold a book exhibition. Young Pioneers counselors can organize team members to collect books by themselves and arrange book exhibitions. You can hold a book fair in combination with a special activity, such as organizing a book fair of "Love My China" and "Learn from Heroes and Strive for Three Good". You can also organize a book fair for a writer, such as "Grandma Bing Xin and We" and so on. 3. Hold a reading meeting and a costume story meeting. The Young Pioneers' organization may invite actors or teachers to recite the fragments in the book, or perform some wonderful fragments in the book in the form of literature and art. Introducing new books in this way is easy to infect children and stimulate their interest in reading, and the effect is very good. 4. Organize young pioneers to meet writers and editors. Children like reading, and they are very eager to know how writers and editors create and work. Organizing children to meet writers and editors can stimulate children's strong interest in reading and learning. At the same time, it can also help writers and editors understand the voices of children and enrich their creation. 5. Organize storytelling activities. Senior students have a wider reading range. After reading some books, they really want to have the opportunity to exchange their views on the characters in the books. Organizing storytelling activities can improve children's reading level. In addition, an exhibition of reading notes can also be organized to stimulate the players' interest in reading by using the feedback information of reading. < /P> < P> (two) recommend excellent books, cultivate children's ability to choose books and periodicals. At present, there are quite a lot of books and periodicals published. Counselors should insist on introducing healthy and beneficial children's books to children, and never let some books and periodicals with low style and absurd content poison children's hearts. Counselors must be familiar with the publication of children's books, keep abreast of publishing information, and actively recommend good books to children. When recommending books or newspapers to children, we should pay attention to a wide range of contents to prevent "partial eclipse" and cultivate children's reading interests in many aspects. Counselors can consider the following points when guiding team members to choose books: 1. Choose reading materials that will help consolidate, expand and deepen classroom knowledge. You can refer to the syllabus and the book catalogue recommended by the publishing house, and work with the teachers and librarians to determine. 2. Introduce books that can satisfy children's interests in literature, history, science and technology. 3. Books can be introduced according to the current situation, the characteristics of different festivals and the surrounding environment. For example, in combination with the major political life of the country, recommend popular books on politics and history; Introduce relevant literature, art and historical reading materials when a film or television film with great influence is shown; Introduce books about natural science knowledge in different seasons; Combined with major festivals, introduce the glorious history of the party and the army and the story books of fine revolutionary traditions, and introduce excellent patriotic reading materials. Counselors should carefully read children's books and periodicals, draw out key articles in combination with students' reality, and recommend them to students or organizations for study. Of course, students can also be mobilized to provide information and recommend good books, newspapers or articles. We should recommend books to children of different ages according to their characteristics. For reading activities with the same theme, children of different grades should recommend different bibliographies. Even in the same grade, due to the differences in children's reading level, the recommended bibliography should vary from person to person. < /P> < P> (3) Help players learn to absorb "nutrition" from books and newspapers. The purpose of reading books and newspapers is to absorb "nutrition". However, in reading activities, some players are not serious about reading, just pursuing the story; There is no choice in reading, and you can read whatever you get; Some students lack analysis and judgment when reading books, and learn everything and believe everything; Some students are just fascinated by romance novels, which seems endless ... Counselors should pay attention to guiding team members to enrich their emotions, raise their awareness and increase their knowledge. Develop language and absorb "nutrition" in many aspects. 1. Organize reading seminars. After reading books, children are often attracted by the story in the book, sympathize with and even imitate the protagonist in the book. However, they can't think and analyze independently about the important events in the book and the behavior of the protagonist. Through the form of reading seminars, everyone can fully express their views and understanding, which is conducive to helping children understand the central idea of books, learn to evaluate people and things in books, distinguish right from wrong, distinguish good from bad, and clarify right and wrong. For example, how to evaluate Yue Fei's patriotism and loyalty to the monarch? How to understand the robbing of the rich and helping the poor and the loyalty of the brothers in the beach heroes? ..... For the understanding and discussion of these issues, counselors need to strengthen guidance. 2. Organize a reading experience exchange meeting. Counselors can guide the team members to learn specific experiences that have promoted the work of the Young Pioneers and improved their own level through reading and reading newspapers, and use these fresh experiences to cultivate children's abilities. At the same time, counselors should also promote the good reading methods and gratifying reading gains of the team members to everyone in a timely manner through exchange meetings. At the reading experience exchange meeting, all the middle and small teams can introduce their own reading experience and method experience, broaden everyone's horizons and inspire everyone to study in a scientific way, instead of being slaves to books. 3. Organize an exhibition of reading notes. Counselors can guide team members to learn to write reading notes and help them master reading abstracts from the knowledge level of different grades. Make reading cards and write feedback to improve the reading ability of the players. You can also organize an experience exchange meeting on writing reading notes and hold an exhibition of excellent reading notes. 4. Organize reading and newspaper performances. Guide the team members to write, arrange, direct and perform some related cultural programs according to stories, fairy tales, poems and other works in books and newspapers; You can also carry out experiments, productions, lectures and other activities according to the knowledge learned in books and newspapers. By carrying out the above activities, we will consolidate and develop the knowledge and skills learned in reading and improve the young pioneers' ability to absorb nutrition from books and newspapers. < /P> < P> (IV) Carrying out Reading and Newspaper Competition In the work of the Young Pioneers, it is an effective means to mobilize the enthusiasm of the majority of team members by means of competition. Reading books and newspapers is no exception. The purpose of holding reading month activities (or competitions) is to arouse children's love for books, cultivate their habit of reading after class, and help them to exchange various good reading methods and experiences. Counselors should organize team members to actively participate in the national "Red Scarf Reading and Newspaper Medal" activities, stimulate their interest in reading, improve their reading ability, develop good reading habits, and form a strong reading atmosphere in major, middle and small teams. Conditional brigades and squadrons can also carry out activities such as "Reading Festival" and "Reading Month" in light of their actual conditions. The contents of these activities should be rich and colorful, such as reading reports, reading knowledge contests, reading performances, commending advanced readers, meeting with editors and writers, holding discussions, signing books and so on. Such activities can greatly promote the reading activities of young pioneers. In short, as one of the basic contents of the Young Pioneers' work, every Young Pioneers' counselor should attach great importance to it, carry out his work seriously and responsibly, and combine different situations, adjust measures to local conditions, bring forth the old and create new features.
