Enhance the reading effect of Sinology classics

Liu Jianghua

With the development of economy and society, a wave of Sinology fever has arisen in China. This boom has affected the education and teaching of the basic education stage, not only the number of ancient classics in classroom teaching has increased significantly, but also some children have also participated in various types of Chinese studies classes and Bible reading classes outside the classroom. However, what kind of Chinese classics children should read and how to read Chinese classics has always been a thorny problem that plagues schools, teachers and parents. To this end, a group of experts concerned about education and outstanding primary and secondary school teachers have jointly compiled and selected the "Classics of Chinese Studies Enlightenment" series. In the process of compilation and selection, according to the children's age characteristics and reading level, the writer uses modern educational concepts to reasonably cut and carefully design the content of the classics, which better solves some problems in the children's reading classics and ensures that children can read and love to read and get something from reading.

Contains Yingzuihua, thick accumulation. In the face of the vast ancient classics, the writers fully consider the children's thinking, psychology and emotional characteristics, and select the best classics and the most appropriate content from the needs of children's lifelong development. The first series of "Classics of Enlightenment in Chinese Studies" selects 6 kinds of far-reaching classics suitable for primary school students to read. The Thousand Character Text was written by Liang Xingsi of the Southern and Northern Dynasties, using a thousand non-repetitive words to organize into catchy, rich, and readable chapters, and there was basically no trace of hard work. The "Three Character Classic" appeared in the Song Dynasty, with neat sentence patterns, easy to understand language, flexible and rich, easy to memorize, and circulated from the Song Dynasty to the late Ming and early Qing dynasties. The Disciple Rules are the most widely circulated and influential Children's Codes after the middle of the Qing Dynasty. "Sound Rhythm Enlightenment" is one of the most important enlightenment books for learning sound rhythms. The above four are all ancient classic Mongolian readings. The Book of Poetry and the Analects are an important part of the "Four Books and Five Classics", the core classics of Confucian culture, and the must-read books of all generations of readers. The "Three Character Classic" and "Thousand Character Text" are combined, and the total number of words is 2720 words, except for the repeated words, there are about two thousand single words. According to the standard of "can read two thousand words, you can read" (Qing Wangjun's "Teaching Children's Law"), after reading the "Three Character Classic" and "Thousand Character Text", the basic literacy problem is solved, and reading training can begin. Although there are differences between the common words in ancient times and the common words in modern times, reading this set of books today can still help children solve most of the basic literacy problems, and can enhance the sense of language, improve literacy, accumulate thickly, and lay a solid foundation for improving reading literacy.

Based on academic editing, hierarchical development. Mongolian reading materials such as "Thousand Character Text", "Three Character Classic", "Disciple Rules", and "Sound Rhythm Enlightenment" are short in length and strong in integrity, and the full text is included in the compilation and selection, which is conducive to cultivating students' ability to read the whole book. The "Three Character Classic" and "Disciple Rules" have neat sentences, popular language, and a small number of words, suitable for first- and second-grade students, children read dozens of words a day, and can easily read these two books within a year. The "Thousand Character Text" involves some canonical objects and allusions and historical facts, and reading it requires a certain language and cultural foundation. "Sound Rhythm Enlightenment" is catchy to read, but it is related to traditional sound rhythm and phonological knowledge, and contains more allusions and literary and historical knowledge. So the writing team set the readers of these two books as third- and fourth-graders. The "Book of Poetry" and "Analects" have deeper semantic meanings, and have higher requirements for students' language foundation, comprehension ability, thinking level, etc., so they choose chapters and segments that are related to modern life and children's experience and are easy to understand, presented in a thematic way, and compiled into "Selected Readings of the Book of Poetry" and "Selected Readings of Analects" for reading by fifth and sixth grade students. This method of learning to edit, act according to ability, hierarchical arrangement, coupled with reading assistance systems such as guides, annotations, and explanations, fits the language and thinking development level of children at all stages, cleans up the language and cultural barriers of ancient classic reading to the greatest extent, and better solves the problem of the readability of children's reading of Chinese classics.

Recitation is the mainstay, diversified training. To study traditional classics, it is necessary to use the characteristics of the rhyme, rhythm, and aura of the classic texts to be repeatedly recited. This series of books advocates that children use the way of recitation, rather than the silent reading and reading method commonly used in our daily life learning to read classic texts. In order to facilitate children's recitation, the main text of the "Three Character Sutra" and "Disciple Rules" in the series of books is all zhuyin, the "Sound Rhythm Enlightenment" and "Thousand Character Text" zhuyin of words unknown to children, and the "Selected Readings of the Book of Poetry" and "Selected Reading of the Analects" are zhuyin for the more unfamiliar characters. The editor adds simple and plain annotations to words that students do not understand, provides modern Chinese translations that can be read with reference to the original text, and the book is also equipped with appropriate illustrations to stimulate children's interest in reading, enrich visual experience, and promote reading comprehension. At the same time, the writing team carefully designed the content and form of exercises that children are familiar with and like, helping children understand some key segments and core content of the text. For example, books such as "Three Character Classic", "Thousand Character Text", "Sound Rhythm Enlightenment", "Disciple Rules" and other books have set up columns such as "Story Cottage" and "Allusion Picking" after each section to tell the historical stories and literary and historical knowledge related to the content of this section; "Activity Garden" and other sections have been designed to organically associate student life with reading content, so that children can use their brains and hands to improve their practical ability; after the main text, they also designed game-type exercise forms that children like to like, such as drawing, coloring, and guessing riddles. The whole set of books is mainly based on reading, combining reading and use, hand and brain, and diversified training, so that children can obtain multi-faceted nutrition in classic reading, and lay a solid foundation for children's all-round development of Traditional Chinese studies.
