Teacher LeLe warmly guides the reading
How to make children fall in love with and persistently like reading and writing, and make the combination of reading and writing a habit of children?
Gu Zipei's parents played a "big game". This is worth learning from all parents who care about their children's learning!
The following article comes from junior high school students, the author of the editorial board of "junior high school students".
Gu Zipei:
Writing is a wonderful journey
"Ji Kang said: 'People have no ambition, non-people also have people.'" Yes, if people lack ambition, what is the difference between them and salted fish..." On the TV screen, a boy in a white shirt stood straight in the middle of the stage, speaking standard Mandarin, and passionately recited his work "Standing at the Intersection of Two Hundred Years of History". This scene was presented to tens of millions of primary and secondary school students through the "I Am the Successor" column, which was guided by the Propaganda Department of the Hunan Provincial CPC Committee, sponsored by the Hunan Provincial Department of Education, and undertaken by Hunan Education Television.
The boy's name is Gu Zipei, a junior high school student who has both youthful vitality and bookish aversion.
A "little bookworm" with "obsessive-compulsive disorder"
FUTURE
In the class, some classmates gave zi a nickname - "bookworm". Where did this name come from?
"Sometimes, when I want to go through his book, he will immediately turn his head and look at my hand warily, lest I break his book. He is simply a 'little bookworm' in the late stage of 'obsessive-compulsive disorder'! In an essay analysis class, a classmate "indignantly" read aloud the essay paragraph he had just written, which caused the students to laugh. The "he" in this classmate's composition refers to Zi Pei. Zi Pei is famous for loving reading in the class, and after this incident, his image of "love of books like life" is even more deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
Zi Pei's "obsessive-compulsive disorder" stems from his love for books - because of love, so cherished.
"At home, the status of his book is much higher than that of a toy." Zi Pei's mother said. Zi Pei took the book very seriously, and his reading habits were also very good--toys were often scattered everywhere, but the books must have been neatly arranged by him, without a trace of corners and marks. He will make a reading plan, and he has his own set of rules for placing books, and his parents are not allowed to easily move the position of the books. "When I read a book I like, I always remember some of the plots at some inadvertent moment, and then I can't help but look at it again. If they moved the position of the book, I would not be able to find the book I was looking for. Zi Pei said.
As a first-year student, his reading volume is undoubtedly amazing. He has read all the books recommended by the Ministry of Education and the school for junior high school students, and he has read even the books that are more obscure and difficult for junior high school students, such as "General History of China" and "Ancient Literature And Guanzhi". "I read a lot of books, and I want to read all kinds of books." Zi Pei said.
His parents saw that he loved to read, and often bought books suitable for him to read as gifts, and he often saved pocket money to buy books to read, but even so, his curiosity could not be satisfied. "After I was in the fifth grade, I spent most of my weekends in the bookstore." In fact, it is not that the "replacement" speed of books at home cannot keep up with his reading speed, but the strong bookish atmosphere in his favorite bookstore. The books in the bookstore are huge, and when he swims through them, he can turn on his "radar", search for all kinds of books that interest him, and then sit on the floor and read freely.
"Many people compare books to mentors, but for me, books are a part of my life, and reading is a normal thing." Zi Pei said sincerely.
It turns out that writing is "addictive"
"Work is about reading, it's easy to write." This sentence is a good illustration of the close relationship between reading and writing. Xu is because he reads more books, Zi Pei often has the desire to write, and wants to transform the things he reads, sees, and perceives into the words he writes.
Zi Pei loves to write ancient poetry, but writing poetry requires the author to have good language expression ability, and ancient poetry has extremely high requirements for the author's literary literacy. Essay tests in primary and secondary schools generally restrict writing poetry. In this case, Zi Pei's insistence on writing poetry is invaluable—a natural release from his accumulation of knowledge.
For example, he saw a few small birds on a telephone pole, so he wrote a small poem "Cold Sparrow": "When the wind and rain change in the middle of winter, there are still cold finches clinging to each other." Ten hundred for the group to fly high, how many alone? ”
Given the opportunity to visit Grandpa Yuan Longping, the "Father of Super Rice", he was so excited that he wrote a small poem "Autumn Waves": "Autumn waves fill the forecourt one after another, and the wind rides like clouds." I like the inexhaustible view of the egret, such as snow stepping on the smoke into the picture screen. ”
After learning the news of Yuan Longping's grandfather's death, he sadly wrote a memorial poem "Qiu Bo No. 2": "The egret is out of the screen, and the look back has already gone." You don't have to, who in the world doesn't know the king? If the guests have no intention, why should they be kings? The clouds and mist scattered to the bottom, and there was still a smile. ”
……
These verses are accurate in wording and rich in connotation, which shows Zi Pei's rich literary accumulation. From the time he wrote his first poem in the second grade, as of now, he has written seventy or eighty poems.
"Every time I watch a book or a movie or a TV series, I always want to write something." When reading books, watching movies or TV series, he pays more attention to the profound meaning behind the plot than his classmates who pay attention to the storyline.
For example, reading the book "Journey to the West", he wrote a post-reading feeling, pointing out the spiritual transformation of the Tang monks and disciples after the demon Voldemort, and proposed that "divinity" was to fight for the common ideal of life; watching the TV series "The Age of Awakening", he wrote the article "Standing at the Intersection of Two Hundred Years of History", detailing the important events and figures in the past few hundred years, and drawing the conclusion that "a strong youth is a strong country", emphasizing the importance of young people having "ambition".
In school, Zi Pei's classroom composition can always be recognized by the teacher, and he can basically get more than 45 points for the composition with a total score of 50 points. Although in the eyes of other students, he is a master of writing, but he also has a lot of troubles in writing. "I have a 'fatal' weakness in the control of ideation time." Zi Pei said that before each writing, he always spends a long time conceiving. It's fine in normal times, but if you encounter an exam, this situation will compress his next pen time and disrupt the rhythm of his exam. "Once in an exam, I spent half an hour conceiving, and when I finished writing, it was a little too late, and I had to scribble in a hurry, and I almost didn't finish it." Zi Pei said with chagrin.
After this incident, he set himself a time for conceiving. Soon, the situation improved.
Read and write "gas stations" on the road
Liang Xiaosheng once said: "The bookshelf is the best real estate for a family. Zi Pei was born in a "Kochi" family, his parents are teachers at Hunan University, his father teaches mathematics, his mother teaches English, but they both love to read liberal arts books. Zi Pei's bookcase was large, neatly filled with books. Because their family loves to read, the speed of updating books is also very fast, so that the study can not be placed, the living room TV cabinet, the entrance cabinet are also "occupied" by books - no way, books are the family's most valuable wealth.
Zi Pei's father likes to read history and current politics books, and Zi Pei's mother likes to read prose and novels. They also often hold small family meetings to share their reading experiences. In this strong reading atmosphere, Zi Pei was fascinated and the seeds of love of reading were planted.
In order to help Zi Pei develop good reading habits, his parents played a "big game": since Zi Pei was more than one year old, they would read picture books to him every night; Zi Pei went to kindergarten class, they began to let him read independently; Zi Pei read the third grade, they consciously guided him to read literary works, let him change from interesting reading to knowledge reading in reading habits; Zi Pei went to junior high school, and they began to expose him to some difficult ancient texts...
Not only that, but they also take pains in writing. After Zi Pei entered the third grade, the difficulty of writing increased. In order to help him quickly and accurately find the direction of the composition, they came up with a good idea - drawing mind maps. They will help Zi Pei analyze the material given in the composition, find keywords from it, and then list feasible ideas through keywords, and finally let him choose his favorite ideas to write. In this way, a writing becomes a fun word game, and every completion of the work is a "small luck".
Writing comes not only from books, but also from life. However, as a junior high school student, life experience is insufficient, how to accumulate writing materials in life? The wise Zi Pei's parents came up with a good idea - "treasure hunting" travel.
Before going to Wuhan, let him watch a documentary about the Chu Kingdom, let him know that Wuhan is not only a city of food, but also a city of culture; before traveling to Shanghai, take him to collect the relevant knowledge of various museum exhibits in Shanghai, and then to the scene "treasure hunt"; before traveling to Shaanxi, let him do enough to accumulate knowledge of the Terracotta Warriors, and then feel the grandeur of the Terracotta Pit on the spot... In this way, the meaning of travel is no longer to travel through the mountains and rivers, but to baptize on the spiritual level.
In addition to the trip twice a year, Zi Pei's parents often take him to do something meaningful on holidays, such as going to the countryside to experience life, letting him chop firewood and herd cattle, going to the nursing home to comfort the lonely elderly, and working as a docent at Yuelu Academy. Through these activities, Zi Pei not only accumulated a lot of writing materials, but also improved his ability to observe and perceive things.
"He used to read a lot, but now he has less time to read, and his writing has a tendency to 'eat old books.'" Zi Pei's mother told me worriedly. After Zi Pei entered junior high school, the burden of schoolwork increased, and the time for reading was greatly compressed, and she was worried that this would have a negative impact on Zi Pei's reading and writing.
Home is a "gas station" on the road of Zi Pei's reading and writing. I believe that with the company and guidance of her parents, Zi Pei can quickly get out of the "predicament" and realize her dream of writing!
