Nandu News Reporter Liang Yanyan Correspondent Fu Xiaojing Recently, at the exhibition of the exploration and conclusion of the Foreign Chinese Experimental School affiliated to the Huangpu District of Guangzhou City, the school's 100-member teacher and student string orchestra played many familiar classic songs such as "Jasmine" and "Singing the Motherland" on the violin. It is understood that 80% of the children who participated in the violin ensemble are zero foundation, and the school said that "double subtraction" allows art education to return to school.
Violin popularization education has been carried out for half a year
The melodious sound of the piano and the uniform performance touched many parents who came to watch the closing exhibition, and a parent at the scene said excitedly: "I thought that the violin was a very difficult instrument to learn, but I didn't expect that in less than 1 month from the beginning of the school to now, my children have been able to participate in the ensemble of school activities many times!" ”
At the closing exhibition of the Experimental School affiliated to cuccidental foreign Chinese, the 100-member string orchestra of teachers and students played classic pieces on the violin
According to Lin Xiaolan, Vice Principal of the Primary School of the Experimental School affiliated with cuccidental foreign Chinese, more than 80% of the students in the 100-member ensemble group in this closing exhibition have been learning violin from September this year, and they have been able to participate in ensemble performances in less than 1 month. "The school has always paid attention to cultivating students' comprehensive and comprehensive literacy, providing more than 50 quality development courses for students to choose from, and the introduction of the 'double reduction' policy has also made us more determined to carry out violin popularization education in schools, enrich the school's aesthetic education curriculum system, and develop intelligence, train thinking, and cultivate children's imagination and creativity with aesthetic education." Lin Xiaolan said.
According to reports, the "China Healthy Campus Action" is a large-scale public welfare undertaking jointly initiated by the China Working Committee for Caring for the Next Generation and the Ministry of Education and other former twelve ministries and commissions, and the violin wisdom education into the campus public welfare activity is one of the action plans. Since the introduction of the public welfare project in April this year, the experimental school of foreign Chinese affiliated to CUHK has rapidly promoted and landed the universal education of violin in the school. This semester, the violin has been fully popularized in the music classes of the first and second grades, and more than 163 students in the primary school have been learning the violin, accounting for more than one-third, and the school has formed a violin string orchestra with more than 100 teachers and students, which is still growing and developing. The school's 100-person string orchestra participated in the Guinness Online Challenge of "Most Violin Ensembles", becoming the school with the largest number of participants. At the end of October, the school will also be invited to participate in the "2021 China Campus Health Action - Violin Wisdom Education into the Campus Second Education Summit" as a demonstration school for Guangdong violin wisdom education into the campus, sharing the experience of popularizing violin art education in schools.
Take care of your interest in learning And make your hard piano fun
The violin, which has always been considered the most difficult to learn, how can it successfully enter the campus of the Affiliated Chinese Experimental School of CUHK in a short period of time?
According to teacher Zhang Yueyu, when you first started, complex musical notation will make children feel difficult, often weakening the interest in learning, so in the process of popularization of wisdom violin education, through the use of "rainbow score" teaching methods, the teaching materials become "fun", and the boring and repetitive empty string exercises become interesting stories and songs.
Lin Xiaolan said that the "rainbow spectrum" teaching method is highly consistent with the school's education model, and in the enlightenment stage, by cultivating children's interests, children can lay a solid foundation in happy learning. In addition, the school will also use personalized tutoring, layered teaching and other diversified teaching methods to drive more teachers and students to join the violin learning.
Interesting rainbow spectrum
Develop your own teaching team to break through the problem of aesthetic education in the school
In the process of carrying out art popularization education in schools, how to solve the problem of teachers has always been a problem, due to the limited number of professional violin teachers, it is impossible to achieve large-scale supply, and can only rely on the school's own teacher training to better popularize violin education.
In April this year, a total of 21 zero-based subject teachers from the Experimental School of Foreign Chinese affiliated to CUHK participated in a 6-day high-intensity systematic school-based teacher training for wisdom violin, training teachers to grow into qualified violin introductory teachers, and forming the school's own violin enlightenment teaching team. In the usual teaching, the form of "professional teacher + teaching assistant" is adopted, and the daily classroom auxiliary exercises and supervision of practicing the violin are guided by the school teacher, while the professional violin teachers teach 2-3 times a week, so that the teaching and learning of the violin can return to the campus and achieve the goal of popularizing, benefiting and enlightening the violin in the school.
