The first day of practical activities [4],

1 Seven traditional festivals: Spring Festival, Lantern Festival, Tomb-Sweeping Day, Dragon Boat Festival, Chinese Valentine's Day, Mid-Autumn Festival and Double Ninth Festival.

The day before Tomb-Sweeping Day was the Cold Food Festival to commemorate Jiexiu, a minister of the State of Jin in the Spring and Autumn Period. The tradition of this day is not to make a fire to cook, but to eat cold food. Jie tui didn't want to be an official and hid in Mianshan. Jin Wengong said, if you don't come out, I will burn the mountain. In fact, he was bluffing and thought it would force him to go down the mountain. As a result, Mianshan was burned. I didn't expect Jie tui to be burned to death before going down the mountain. Jin Wengong, I'm so sorry.

..... There are not many other festivals. There are really not many festivals like China, and there are no festivals like Confucius and Mencius.

Except for the Dragon Boat Festival, it is the Cold Food Festival, and no one has celebrated it now. Eating Lantern Festival seems to be related to Dong Fangshuo. Southerners eat rice cakes in December to commemorate Wu Zixu. The details are not clear.

In addition, there are festivals related to myths and legends, such as Tanabata, Cowherd and Weaver Girl, New Year's kitchen stove, Kitchen God, etc., which reflect the phenomenon that young people excessively pursue western culture and ignore traditional festivals.

I think one of the main reasons is that after China's reform and opening up, foreign cultures have infiltrated into it and countries have blended with each other. This is a natural phenomenon; Second, global economic integration has accelerated the influence of foreign cultures on China. It is human nature that many foreigners work and spend holidays in China. Third, the media and commercial speculation have promoted the "foreign festival" to continue to heat up, mainly behind the huge commercial profits; Fourth, it is inevitable for our people to live a rich life and pursue a colorful spiritual life; Fifth, many young people and college students pursue fashion and follow suit. When foreign festivals came, they had a good time. Moreover, foreign festivals pay attention to humanization, are more relaxed and romantic, and pay attention to emotional appeal, such as sending roses on Valentine's Day and Christmas Eve on St. Salim's Day, which are easily accepted by young people.

However, the traditional festivals in China are generally educational, monotonous in form, and some are feudal, and at the same time they are not valued by the government. Various reasons have caused the situation of "foreign festivals are hot and cold". Second,

Chinese teaching should have its charm and cannot leave the world of life. Yu Yi, a famous special-grade teacher, has repeatedly called for: "We should turn the self-enclosed nature of Chinese teaching into an open one, open up the space of Chinese education, face life, society and lively students, and refrain from mechanical training to stifle students' youth. "To achieve this ideal state, we must inject the content of life and the" living water "of the times into teaching, make education live, and make Chinese teaching live.

First, learn Chinese in family life.

With the improvement of living standards, people pay more and more attention to the construction of family culture. We educators should seize this favorable condition, guide students to learn Chinese in family life, let them seize the opportunity of listening to the radio, reading newspapers, watching TV and receiving guests, help children learn Chinese knowledge, and imperceptibly improve their Chinese level. After teaching Ode to a Wanderer, I arranged a "filial piety homework" to wash my parents' feet. When students personally touch their parents' calloused hands and feet, the inner shock is absolutely irreplaceable by words and explanations. It can dig out the beautiful feelings rooted in students' hearts, and encourage children to turn the filial piety generated by gratitude into the quality of studying hard and the pure love of caring for others. At this time, the teacher will guide again, believing that the trickle will surely merge into an ocean of love, and then further expand the love. Learning Chinese in family life can also make children more caring.

Second, learn Chinese in campus life.

Schools are special places for teaching and educating people. It has many unique advantages in educating people. We should make full use of this advantage and let students form the good habit of learning Chinese from time to time and using Chinese everywhere through colorful campus activities. Such as literary societies, school newspapers, red scarf radio stations, and reading festivals. They are all very good locations, and we can give them a strong "Chinese flavor". Doing so can not only successfully build campus culture and enrich students' campus life, but also effectively cultivate their language ability.

Third, learn Chinese in social life.

Mr. Tao Xingzhi said: "Education can be said to be a book, which is isolated from life and has little power. Only by taking life as the object of education can the power of education be great. " This requires that education must be closely linked with the broad social life. To make social life full of "Chinese flavor", we must let students go out of the classroom and campus, actively participate in the vast world of society, consciously take Chinese as a tool of life and participate in social practice. Such as sightseeing, community service, voluntary labor and so on. Students participating in such activities and learning Chinese in social life can not only improve their enthusiasm for learning and using Chinese, but also cultivate their listening, speaking, reading and writing abilities.

Fourth, learn Chinese in life practice.

Practice is actually a kind of teaching, but this kind of teaching is progressive and operable. Chinese is everywhere in life, and it is everywhere. Only by organically integrating colorful life with Chinese knowledge, building a platform for children's Chinese practice, and letting children learn, understand and consolidate in practice, can we really enrich children's emotions and lay a solid humanistic foundation for them. Many teachers are always at a loss when training their communicative competence. However, if students are introduced into life practice, they will often get twice the result with half the effort, such as designing serial words for class squadron activities, designing advertising slogans and posters for school sports meetings, children's days and get-togethers, being a small reporter in school sports meetings, and writing thank-you letters to the people they respect most on March 8 and Teacher's Day, so that students can learn Chinese in life practice.

In short, in the new curriculum reform, only by letting life enter the classroom, letting Chinese teaching embody "life", letting Chinese enter life and making students' life have "Chinese flavor" can the teaching quality of Chinese classroom be effectively improved. Hope reference
