How to teach poetry

Interest is the psychological tendency to explore something or to engage in some kind of activity. Educational psychology believes that interest is the catalyst for learning, is the internal motivation for students to engage in learning activities, which can motivate students to actively explore, strive to climb, and strive towards their own identified goals. Soviet educator Ushinsky proposed: "Compulsory learning without the slightest interest will kill the students' desire to explore the truth." For the teaching of ancient poems far from students' lives, if teachers can create a good learning atmosphere, stimulate students' interest in learning, make classroom teaching interesting and orderly, will have an immeasurable effect on students' learning of ancient poems.

For example: in teaching "lookout Lushan waterfalls", it can be used "stimulation of the method". At the beginning of the new class with a riddle "cliff hanging a large white cloth, a thousand hands and feet can not catch, listen to the thousands of horses roar, look at the silver spring flying down the valley." Arousing the students' interest in the waterfall, and then guided reading to recall the Waterfall, so that the students were infected by the situation depicted in the language, so as to enter the waterfall of the poetic realm.

In addition, the use of multimedia courseware in the beautiful interface design, simple and elegant music, to create a strong atmosphere of ancient Chinese culture, to create a good teaching atmosphere, is also a very good way to stimulate interest, but also traditional teaching can not do.

This can inspire each other, stimulate "brainstorming", will not only greatly promote understanding, but also will trigger a lot of feelings.

④Combination of recitation and application to deepen understanding.

The new language curriculum emphasizes the overall improvement of students' language literacy and the development of students' thinking. The ancient poems were produced in the distant past, the ancient social system, lifestyle, customs, language style, etc., are very different from the modern, and the ancient poems are condensed words, jumping degree is big, the writing method is exaggerated. Therefore, teaching ancient poetry in elementary school should firstly make the words representational, and make them strengthened (established), activated (converted), optimized (processed), that is, when reading the poems and texts, guide the students to form the main picture of the words in their minds with the help of imagination. Accurately grasp the emotions of poetic works, just stick to the text of the required content is far from enough, must have a certain understanding of the author's social experience, cultural upbringing, interests and hobbies, as well as the background of the writing and other related knowledge, in order to be with the poet's heart with the same feelings, meaning the same, and the Ming Poetry is in the understanding of words on the basis of understanding of the poem is a sentence of the language of the poem is a refined translation of the language of the process of modern Chinese.

Therefore, in teaching ancient poetry, teachers should guide students to enter the "realm" in order to make students "understand its spirit" and "meaning", and truly understand the beauty of ancient poetry. Ye Shengtao once said, "The teaching of poetry focuses on cultivating temperament and expanding the imagination, and if you grasp the essence of the instruction in one or two sentences, it may be enough, and it does not have to be complicated and lengthy lectures." The teaching of ancient poems must lead the students into the mood of the poem, experience the feelings of the poet, guide the students to develop their imagination with the help of the poet's rich associations, and appreciate the poet's majestic spirit, as well as the poet's love of life and nature.
