What should I pay attention to as a primary school music teacher?
In order to improve the comprehensive quality of music teachers in primary and secondary schools and promote the effective overall improvement of music teaching in primary and secondary schools, the Ministry of Education holds a national basic skill exhibition every two years, and education management departments at all levels hold a basic skill competition for music teachers every year, so as to have a clearer and more comprehensive understanding of "basic skills of music teachers in primary and secondary schools". With the comprehensive promotion of new curriculum standards, music teachers in primary and secondary schools need to understand, learn and improve their basic skills. I have made the following thoughts and explorations in my years of middle school music education and teaching. 1. The basic skill of music technology is actually the theoretical and technical level of music discipline, and it is the foundation and premise of a qualified music teacher. Specifically, it is vocal music, piano, dance, chorus and command, solfeggio, music theory, appreciation, music history, teaching methods and other courses offered by music education majors in colleges and secondary schools, as well as higher-level harmony, form and analysis. Music theory and technology courses, such as orchestration, are not required for music teachers in primary and secondary schools. Even if they are not selected during their studies for various reasons, they should be supplemented with these required courses today. 2. The basic skills of stage performance art The basic skills of stage performance art are originally required for professional performers, but under the requirements of the "new curriculum standard", it should be necessary for music teachers in primary and secondary schools, otherwise the teaching value of "music performance ability" cannot be well implemented by teachers. Performance is a practical field of music learning and the basic content of learning music. Cultivate students' self-confident singing, playing ability and comprehensive artistic expression ability in teaching, and develop students' performance potential and creative potential, so that students can express their personal feelings and communicate with others in the form of music, and get along well with their feelings. In music time activities, students are happy because of beauty and educated because of affection. Although the developed modern media can instantly show students the highest, strongest and best artistic image in the world, students still feel far away, as if it is not artificial, because it is electronic and virtual, lacking enough appeal and not as intimate and natural as the performance of real people. This important teaching implementation should be our music teachers' duty as much as possible, so music teachers should have certain performance skills, that is, the basic skills of stage performances such as singing performance, musical instrument performance and dance performance. 3. Basic Skills of Teaching Creation I understand the basic skills of teaching creation of music teachers from two aspects, on the one hand, the creation and director of scripts such as music, dance and folk art, on the other hand, the creativity and spirituality shown by teachers in classroom teaching. The creation and director of music, dance, Quyi and other scripts is actually the arrangement of programs, and the second classroom is an extension of classroom teaching. It is the unshirkable responsibility of music teachers in primary and secondary schools to rehearse programs for students after class. This highly creative work has made many music teachers brilliant and enjoy it. On the other hand, the creativity and spirituality shown in classroom teaching have long been imprisoned by the traditional teaching mode. Music is an abstract, multi-solution and fuzzy art, and its characteristics provide a broad imagination and association space for people to understand and interpret music. For a long time, teachers are used to treating students as the object of teaching and the carrier of knowledge. In music class, students are forced to carry out boring knowledge training blindly, and they are tirelessly explained the knowledge of music theory for a long time, requiring students to remember the birth dates of a large number of musicians and represent their works. This practice greatly damages students' subjective initiative and creativity, and affects the development of students' personality. Therefore, teachers should first readjust their position, change dominators and managers into helpers, and establish students' dominant position. Create a harmonious and democratic teaching atmosphere, guide students to participate in activities through organization and inspiration, broaden students' musical cultural horizons, improve students' healthy aesthetic awareness, create a highly free space for students' imagination and creation, and fully understand and love music through music creation and re-creation (music expression). For example, improvisation and improvisation in music teaching can be improvisation of rhythm and melody, answering questions, solitude and reorganization. And it can also penetrate into all aspects of music teaching: the collocation of rhythm and songs, the filling of phrases, the improvisation of melody lyrics, the creation of propositions, the distribution of new singing and playing forms of songs and music, the accompaniment of songs and music, the production of small music, the soundtrack of poetry and dance performances, etc. Cultivate students' keen hearing in creative activities; A quick response; Expressive sense of rhythm; Perception of music structure and form; Understanding and expression of the image and expression of music; High concentration and tacit cooperation. In other words, the "creation" in music class is not too much emphasis on theoretical guidance, nor is it "learning to compose music" as some people understand. How many "songs" students have created is the symbol of "creativity". All this needs teachers' own basic creative skills to complete. 4. The basic skills of music production The basic skills of music teachers mainly refer to the production technology of computer audio and video. Speaking of "computer music production", it is no stranger to people engaged in music art in today's society, and its positive influence on music teaching and activities in primary and secondary schools is obvious to all. Indeed, computer music production technology has brought a lot of convenience to our work. 5. Basic skills of cultural theory The basic skills of cultural theory of music teachers in primary and secondary schools mainly refer to their music appreciation ability and comprehensive cultural literacy related to music. We should not just stay at the level of loving and talking about music. Music and related culture are the concentrated expression of the humanistic attributes of music lessons, and they are the learning fields that directly improve students' cultural literacy. It is helpful to broaden students' cultural horizons, promote students' experience and feeling of music, and improve students' music appreciation, performance, creation and artistic aesthetic ability. Teachers' cultural theory level plays a decisive role in the realization of teaching objectives in this field. For example, teachers create teaching environment and teaching process, strengthen the rendering of humanistic spirit, pay attention to students' spirit, gain insight into students' spiritual world, and fully care for music teachers in primary and secondary schools with certain cultural accumulation. In music teaching, it is a historical mission entrusted by the times to cultivate students' humanistic quality, teach them the truth of being a man and let them have a relatively perfect personality, that is, a certain humanistic quality. 6. Basic Skills of Classroom Teaching The basic skills of classroom teaching of music teachers in primary and secondary schools should not conflict with the requirements of cultural classes: First, a correct, natural, generous, decent and serious teaching attitude; In teaching activities, education is integrated into one, which has its own teaching characteristics, can attract students to mobilize their enthusiasm for learning, and then pay attention to integrating theory with practice, cultivate students' innovative thinking and ability, and have a correct viewpoint, clear concept, prominent focus and proper handling of details and difficulties; Putonghua teaching is accurate, concise and vivid; Calligraphy is smooth and beautiful; Skilled multimedia teaching skills, and finally coherent teaching process and reasonable teaching time allocation. The overall improvement of music teaching in primary and secondary schools is inseparable from the comprehensive quality of music teachers in primary and secondary schools and depends on their basic skills. Teachers' basic skills are by no means performances of playing the piano, singing and dancing, and writing articles, not to mention a music lesson carefully prepared for teachers and students, but the overall embodiment of transforming solid basic skills into classroom teaching ability, optimizing classroom teaching process and comprehensively improving teaching quality. There are many ways to cultivate and improve the basic skills of music teachers in primary and secondary schools, both through the training of music teachers' colleges and through continuing education. It is gratifying that the study and reflection on the basic skills of music teachers in primary and secondary schools and the continuous practice and exploration have been carried out among all music teachers. I believe that I will not live up to the historical mission entrusted by the times.
