"If I gave you such a big piece of Zhongshan Park, what would you do with it?" In 1910, a man named Liu Xinsheng faced this problem..." Xiao Ke first told the story of Liu Xinsheng, the founder of Zhongshan Park, in the form of a talk show, "Everyone first told a scene when telling a story to bring the audience in." "After that, Xiaoke shared 2 key words with the children - bankruptcy and sesame seeds." Liu Xinsheng and foreigners in the mineral business because of touching fish, closed down. But he spent his time touching fish learning foreign languages. Then, in a foreign language, he sold sesame seeds by grain and earned the first pot of gold. With this money, he bought the land that is now Zhongshan Park. ”

"Let's start by telling a story about what I just shared." Xiao can remind children that the storytelling first retains the most impressive points in their minds, then adds details around the points, and then strings them into stories to tell. Chen Zixuan, a small reporter from the Chucai small reporter of the Yangtze River Daily and the third (second) class of Chongren Boarding School, took the lead in raising his hand to speak, and explained very clearly the transformation from the mineral business to the sesame business and the origin of the sesame for the land. Led by her, other small reporters also raised their hands.

"The businessman is very shrewd and spends the least amount of money to buy the largest land. The land area is good, zhongshan park has so many lakes, what to do? "Xiao Ke told the children that at that time, Liu Xinsheng got a small boat and measured the area of the lake in units of the number of oars, and he specially invited the fastest rower in Wuhan at that time to row for him, and the area calculated by rowing a circle was equivalent to a 75% discount on the area on the map." In addition to telling stories with talk shows, you can also tell stories with improvisational performances. ”
Xinran is the teacher of "Rice Grain Improvisation" under the "Rice Comedy", and she uses the content of "Paddling to Count the Lake Area" that can be shared, asking the children to group up and write and direct an improvisational performance around this plot. "First clarify the main story line, then divide the characters and the props held by the characters, and finally put them into performance."

Gui Xiwen, a fifth-grader of The First Primary School in Wuhan Optics Valley, volunteered to be a director, "I am Liu Xinsheng, you are tall as a boatman, and your two little sisters will be the recorders, find your mother to borrow a calculator." ”
"Such a fun and lively event I would like to go on for a second time." Gui Xiwen's mother expects him to learn to tell stories while learning about the history of Wuhan, "Zhongshan Park is too suitable for children to retrace the history of Wuhan, step by step." With the comedy form of a talk show, the children do not feel monotonous and boring at all. ”
After the event, Chen Zixuan immediately ran out of the exhibition hall and invited passers-by to stop and listen to her tell the story of Liu Xinsheng, "I want to be the most able volunteer who can tell the historical story of Zhongshan Park." ”
