Why should mother tongue Chinese teaching be implemented? Let's analyze the current situation of Chinese teaching first.

What is the essential connotation of Chinese? This was not a problem, but now it has become a big problem. This is because Chinese has lost its authenticity. This is because Chinese has been seriously alienated. Chinese is becoming less and less like Chinese, and teaching Chinese is becoming less and less known.

Chinese is exaggerated. An extreme approach is to regard almost everything that is relevant or even irrelevant as the necessary connotation and responsibility of a language. So everything belongs to China, and China people become everything. Chinese is humanistic, so Chinese becomes humanistic; Chinese is a part of culture, so culture becomes Chinese; Chinese can't help but pay attention to life, so Chinese has become life education; Chinese and life are closely linked, so life becomes Chinese. Everything is Chinese, and Chinese is everything. Some people say that China people have to pay attention to the education of being a man; Others say that China people have to pay attention to the cultivation of personality; Some people say that China people should cultivate national feelings; ? Some people say that China people should cultivate a world vision; Some people say that China people should pay attention to students' mental health; Some people say that China people should attach importance to emotional education ... So some people make fun of it, and family planning will soon become the language of China. So everything is China's and China's is nothing. So I have everything, but I have nothing-the language is gone.

Chinese has been improved. The so-called high school is to give up the basic responsibility of Chinese subject and pursue those lofty goals. Basic knowledge is not important, basic ability is not important, but people are always talking, always being diverse, always appreciating beauty, always exploring, always questioning, and even taking cultural enlightenment as the main content and goal. In some classes, you "talk" with the text before you understand it; Before you understand the article, question it with the author; Before I mastered the basic content, I began to explore. It takes almost no effort to learn "A Mountain of Yugong" in language, and I don't understand the characteristics of fables. Efforts are mainly spent on analyzing the text with modernist criticism methods; When studying Lotus Lake, the appreciation of novels is not the focus of teaching, nor is the taste of poetic novel language. The emphasis is on cultural interpretation. The focus of teaching I Have a Dream is not to learn the artistic technique and language art of this classic speech, but to understand the unfortunate fate of African Americans and their struggle for equality and freedom, and to understand Martin Luther King's contribution to the freedom and equality of African Americans. "Culture" and even politics are history. In a sense, what these courses pursue is good, but we think we should pursue such a high position on the basis of embodying the basic value of Chinese courses and completing the basic tasks of Chinese. Giving up the basic responsibility of Chinese and weakening or giving up the basic value of Chinese curriculum is also an act of alienation.

Chinese is being blurred. Chinese class is getting better and better; Chinese class is getting more and more lively. There are more and more new ideas and forms. However, Chinese classes are less and less like Chinese classes. More experience, less accumulation; Watch more movies and less textbooks; Listen to more tapes, but the teacher reads less; There are many other activities and few language activities. What autonomy, what subject, what diversity, what inquiry, what cooperation ... it seems that all teachers can speak a set; What PPT, what link, what network reading, what new concept writing, it seems that everyone has a hand. When we are dazzled, we can't help thinking: But what are China people?

How to teach Chinese? It seems that few people can make it clear and even want to think about it seriously. As for what is the basic task of reading teaching, what is the basic task of writing teaching, how to improve reading ability and writing ability, etc., few people can answer the most basic questions that they are willing to think about. What everyone is keen on is the idea that form is fashion. The better the class, the less students gain. There is little basic training in listening, speaking, reading and writing, and language accumulation and language training seem to be embellishments. In this context, we urgently feel that we should think rationally: What are China people?

Second, what is the mother tongue?

Mother tongue is the construction of a concept, which is a special topic studied by Mr. Huang Houjiang of Suzhou Middle School for many years. Constructing a concept means the cohesion of ideas, the integration of viewpoints and the maturity of theories. We tend to call the concept of construction an educational proposition or a teaching idea. Mother tongue: take Chinese as a language and teach it in Chinese. True colors, not conservative; True colors, not retrogression; True colors, not inaction. True colors do not exclude other styles; True colors, not against innovation; True colors, do not give up the pursuit of higher and better. True colors are the origin of Chinese teaching. You can go a long way, but this is the starting point.

A few days ago, the Professional Committee of Chinese Teaching in Middle Schools of China Education Society held the "Huang Houjiang Mother Tongue Seminar" in Suzhou Middle School. The originally planned meeting of 300-400 people finally attracted more than 0/000 Chinese teachers in middle schools all over the country. "Natural language" is a Chinese teaching concept put forward by Huang Houjiang after 30 years of Chinese teaching practice and more than 20 years of Chinese teaching research.

Natural language requires Chinese classes to adhere to their own curriculum pursuit, undertake the mission of Chinese courses, take language as the core, take Chinese learning activities as the main form, and improve students' Chinese literacy as the fundamental purpose. China people are from China. Mother tongue Chinese aims to explore the basic laws of mother tongue teaching, practice Chinese education that embodies the basic characteristics of mother tongue, and pay attention to the laws and methods of Chinese teaching. Huang Houjiang believes that Chinese is the cleverest and most distinctive language among all ethnic groups in the world. It is different from other languages in writing, writing, expression and structure, listening, speaking, reading and writing. Therefore, mother tongue education must have its own laws.

Mother tongue means that Chinese classes should be taught according to the laws of Chinese, and students should learn according to the laws of Chinese. This law includes Chinese curriculum law, Chinese teaching law, Chinese learning law and so on. "Chinese Standard" is about methods and effects, which requires Chinese teaching to reflect the basic characteristics of Chinese subject and realize the basic value of Chinese curriculum. Specifically, it is necessary to teach Chinese by Chinese methods, and improve students' Chinese literacy by methods that have the characteristics of Chinese subject, conform to the law of Chinese learning and reflect the value of Chinese subject.

Huang Houjiang emphasized that language is a language and cannot be anything else. Huang Houjiang said that language and life are closely related, but language is not equal to life. Now, in some classrooms, the teaching space has indeed been expanded, the teaching resources are also very rich, and the relationship between Chinese and life is also very close, but what we see is only "life" rather than Chinese. A good Chinese class should read everything. Think about it, only China people.

Chinese is Chinese, which requires Chinese teaching to take language as the core and Chinese activities as the main line to improve students' Chinese literacy. It requires Chinese class to reflect its own curriculum pursuit, so that students can learn to learn Chinese, learn to use Chinese, learn to read, write, listen and speak, enrich students' spiritual world and build a spiritual hut for students. Students should also be made to like Chinese. At present, many teachers' poor grades are at the expense of students' dislike of Chinese classes and Chinese subjects, and even they are proud that their class average score is 0.5 points higher than other classes. This is terrible.

Chinese is a language, which requires that Chinese classes should be interesting, that teachers should teach according to the laws of Chinese, that students should learn according to the laws of Chinese, and that Chinese classes should have the flavor of Chinese classes. A PE teacher said: After listening to several Chinese classes, I found that the Chinese teacher was "passing the ball" in class, kicking this student's question to another student, and then kicking another student's question to this student. He said that he learned football and passed the ball better than the Chinese teacher. He couldn't say anything the Chinese teacher said in class. Of course, the teacher is teasing, but the problem reflected is profound: Chinese classes have no Chinese flavor, and Chinese teachers can't see Chinese teachers.

Huang Houjiang thinks that Chinese is Chinese, which requires a Chinese teacher to be a person who loves, understands and learns Chinese, and has good Chinese literacy, and it is best to have some interest and temperament.

Teaching Chinese with Chinese teaching method. Natural classroom emphasizes teaching Chinese by Chinese method, taking language as the core, taking Chinese learning activities as the main form and aiming at improving students' Chinese literacy. Its basic characteristics are clear teaching content, clear teaching process, simple teaching method and real teaching effect.

Third, how to implement natural language teaching.

Over the past 30 years of reform and opening up, Chinese teaching has been reformed, but nothing has changed. On the contrary, it has become more confused, confused and unrecognizable, almost changing the essential attribute of Chinese teaching. In many places, Chinese has become an ideological education course, losing its true colors. What about Chinese teaching? How to take the road of Chinese teaching? After many detours, people have to go back and consider the true colors of Chinese. At present, people have realized the importance of returning to the true colors of Chinese, and the voice of returning to the true colors of Chinese is getting stronger and stronger. How to return to the true colors of Chinese? We believe that to solve this problem, it is best to achieve five "many":

1. Read more books and cultivate a sense of language. Read it a hundred times, and its meaning is self-evident. In ancient times, going to school was to let students read books, recite classics, and rarely give lectures, but students had a deep accumulation. This is the advantage of reading. Read more books in Chinese class. Reading aloud is an important means to learn, master and use language, and it is also an important way to train students to express their thoughts and opinions. Only by reading aloud can you read the correct pronunciation, and reading aloud can have cadence. Reading out the sense of language, understanding the clever use of words, understanding the structure and cleverness of words, and exercising the courage to speak in public will all be solved in reading aloud, and will also be subtly influenced and edified in the process of "moistening things silently", which will inadvertently improve the level of using language, and both oral expression and writing will benefit a lot. Many teachers and students will have a personal experience of the benefits in this respect. When reading aloud, the pronunciation is loud, cadence and clear rhythm. And the reader's own feelings are integrated into the reading materials, which greatly enhances the image, rhythm and interest of the reading materials.

Someone summed up ten advantages of reading Chinese aloud:

First, it is conducive to developing the right brain. Because the essence of reading aloud is that the reader appreciates his own voice, and over time, it is conducive to the self-cultivation of students' thinking ability in images.

Second, it can change students' personality. Introverts often make little noise. If all students insist on reading aloud texts and other articles and books, students will be easy to talk and their personality will change accordingly.

Thirdly, it helps students realize the value of debate and argumentation, which is a quality of better and higher quality participation in future affairs.

Fourth, it is conducive to changing poor students. The outstanding performance of most poor students is that they can't read the text aloud and can't read the text well. From reading aloud, many poor students can form a certain thinking ability in the process of reading.

Fifth, reading aloud will make the brain nervous in a state of extreme excitement, which in itself can stimulate students to understand the text in depth.

Sixth, reading aloud requires concentration, and the brain is in an "empty" state, which is conducive to memorizing materials.

Seventh, reading aloud is the only way to form a sense of language. It can be said that if you don't read the article aloud, you won't have a real sense of language.

Eighth, reading the article is conducive to the reproduction of "poetic beauty". Every article and book has the beauty of "poetry" and is inspired by the author's beauty, and reading aloud can restore this beauty.

Nine, reading aloud is beneficial to the study of other subjects. For example, it will be better to read aloud when solving math problems. If reading aloud is used in subjects that need extensive and in-depth thinking and memory, learning efficiency will be high.

Ten is conducive to improving writing ability. Reading others' works is a learning process, while reading your own works is a process of revision and perfection.

Reading is an important part of Chinese class, and a class without the sound of books cannot be regarded as a Chinese class. Chinese class should be full of charm and sound, and read out the characteristics and beauty of Chinese. By reading more books, we can cultivate students' sense of language and understand the connotation of the text, which has a profound influence on students and can be naturally revealed when writing a composition.

2. Remember more and accumulate knowledge. A good memory is not as good as a bad writing, even if it is good, it is easy to forget after a long time. In order to make students concentrate in class, they must take good class notes. In order to make students concentrate on class, teachers always ask students to clear their desks and put away all irrelevant things before class. It is said that a mess on the desktop will make people feel busy and distracted. Tidying up desks before class helps to concentrate students' energy and is worth promoting. Taking class notes not only helps to concentrate students' energy, but also improves learning efficiency. Some students have poor academic performance, and one of the most important reasons is that they are too lazy to take class notes. Their textbooks are clean and tidy, and there is not a word in them. Even if it is difficult to understand classical Chinese, they don't remember a word, let alone expect them to write it in their notebooks. How can such students learn well? Therefore, experienced teachers always remind students to write down key points and often check their class notes for timely praise or criticism. At that time, Mr. Fujino attached great importance to Mr. Lu Xun's class notes.

Some students think that there is everything in the textbook anyway, just listen in class, and there is no need to take class notes. This view is wrong. Research shows that students who take notes score twice as high as those who don't. Why is this? The benefits of taking notes can be summarized as follows:

1. Taking notes helps to guide and stabilize students' attention. If you want to take notes in class, you must keep up with the teacher's lecture ideas and concentrate on learning the content. Just listening without taking notes may distract your attention from other aspects besides study.

2. Taking notes helps to understand the learning content. The process of taking notes is also a process of positive thinking, which can mobilize the eyes, ears, brain and hands to move together and promote the understanding of classroom teaching content.

Taking notes helps to review and remember what you have learned. If you don't take notes, you should read the textbook from beginning to end when reviewing, which is time-consuming and difficult to grasp the key points, and the effect is not good. If you write down the outline, key points and difficulties of the lecture at the same time, and write down your understanding and experience of what you have learned in your own language, you will be systematic, organized and familiar when reviewing against your notes, and get twice the result with half the effort.

Taking notes helps to accumulate information and expand new knowledge. Notes can be used to record some new knowledge and new ideas that are not in books but are taught by teachers in class. Only by continuous accumulation can we gain a lot of new knowledge.

With class notes, students can review what they have recorded, and what they have learned will be further consolidated, with obvious effects. It's best to keep the class notes in the textbook for easy preservation and review.

3. Think more and improve your ability. Some people say that school is the kingdom of thinking, which is true. Our teacher's task is not only to let students learn knowledge, but more importantly, to cultivate their thinking ability, learn to think and make their minds smarter. As far as Chinese is concerned, cultivating reading comprehension ability is the most important thing. Where does reading ability come from? This is a problem that students, parents and teachers often think about, and it is also the most troublesome problem. Whether it is the senior high school entrance examination or the college entrance examination, reading is the highlight. Some people think that reading famous books can improve reading ability, which is unrealistic fantasy, because reading famous books is not the same as reading in exams. No matter how many famous books you read, you may not be able to do reading problems. Some people think that buying ready-made reading materials and improving students' reading ability by doing problems is just a beautiful wish that is difficult to realize, because many reading problems are patchwork and the quality is not high. Doing such reading questions is often laborious and has little effect. Therefore, the best way is to design some high-value questions on a class basis, so as to guide students to think and answer in class, thus continuously improving students' reading comprehension. Imagine that if each text is designed with certain questions, guiding students to think and answer in class, and sticking to it, students' reading comprehension ability will be continuously improved.

4. Multi-products to stimulate interest. Chinese textbooks are a treasure house of beauty, which brings together excellent works at home and abroad. Every text is the unity of beauty in content and form. Chinese teaching has a unique aesthetic advantage.

Some words can taste the beauty of their contents: Zhu Ziqing's Spring depicts five pictures of spring grass, spring flowers, spring breeze, spring rain and Spring Festival, which are vivid and intoxicating. To teach this kind of text, we need to grasp the characteristics of each picture and guide students to taste the beauty of the described content. For example, "Spring Grass Map" can grasp the words "sneak" and "drill" and taste its dynamic beauty; Grasp the words "tender" and "green" and taste the beauty of their colors; Grasp the words "light, quiet" and "soft" and taste their tactile beauty, so that students can appreciate the beauty of the content of the article.

Some texts can appreciate the beauty of its structure: Ye Shengtao's Suzhou Garden, the overall structure is the score, starting from the middle paragraph, is juxtaposed, forming the juxtaposition of paragraphs, the structure is neat and symmetrical, giving people a sense of beauty. . Structure determines nature, and nature determines value. Carbon elements arranged in general order can only form graphite. If arranged in octahedral crystals, it will become diamonds. A good structure can sometimes determine the great value of an article. To teach this text well, we need to grasp the first word of each paragraph, understand the characteristics of the same and similar sentence patterns, study the function of the first word of each paragraph, find out the layout characteristics of each paragraph, try to figure out the writing rules of each paragraph, and guide students to taste the structural beauty of neat and symmetrical paragraphs.

Some words can taste the beauty of their language: Mao Yisheng's "China Stone Arch Bridge" describes the stone lions on the Lugou Bridge. "Some mothers and children report to each other, some whisper to each other, some listen to the underwater sound, and some watch the pedestrians, which is vivid and lifelike", and describes the stone lions on the Lugou Bridge vividly. In the teaching of this text, we should grasp these beautiful sentences, guide students to analyze the rhetorical effects of personification and parallelism, and let them know that it is precisely because of the use of these two rhetorical devices that the language is vivid, neat and full of momentum; Then guide them to understand the expressive functions of the adjectives "in various forms" and "lifelike", and tell them that using adjectives is an important means of language description. To taste language, you must master adjectives.

5. Learn to write more. How to teach writing now? In my opinion, it is not enough to teach only in composition class. We should teach while learning the text, so that reading and writing can really "get married" and eat in a pot.

In the essay "A Chang and Shan Hai Jing", the author used the writing method of "wanting to promote first, restraining first", expressing his great admiration and deep memory for the nanny A Chang, which left an unforgettable impression on people. In the teaching of this text, reading and writing should be combined. First, students should be guided to analyze the author's dislike of A Chang: it can be described as "reserved" to "read words and sense emotions" in secret, sleep with the word "big", talk all day, stick to rules and regulations, love to gossip and so on; Re-analyze my admiration for her: it is such a woman who is so annoying, uneducated and can't even tell the title, and actually bought me the Classic of Mountains and Seas that others can't buy. "She is really powerful" can be said to be highly praised. It is this repression that makes the plot of the article suddenly reach its peak unexpectedly, and the characters are vivid, lifelike and engraved on paper. Imagine that if the article only publicizes and does not restrict, and only writes about buying mountain and sea classics so that "I" admire it, its effect may not be ideal. So as to tell students that this is a very important way of writing, and we must learn this way when writing. For example, the title "My Teacher" can be written like this. First, write many criticisms of the teacher and my dissatisfaction with the teacher, and then write about the change of my view on the teacher through one thing, show the "greatness" of the teacher, and compare the content behind with the content in front, so that you will get the effect of wanting to improve first.

The novel Hometown describes the appearance changes of Runtu and his sister-in-law, Yang Er, in a contrasting way, which strongly highlights the theme of "Today is not what it used to be". Teaching this text should guide students to learn this kind of comparative writing. Praise of Poplar symbolizes the spirit of the northern military and civilians to strive for the upper reaches with tall and straight poplars, and there are wonderful discussions and lyricism behind each part. When teaching this text, both writing methods should be studied. Talking about Life compares life to a spring and a small tree, reveals the law of life, expounds the philosophy of life, and is vivid and touching, giving people profound enlightenment. This metaphor should guide students to learn. The two classic works, Humble Room Inscription and Ailian Shuo, make good use of the writing method of expressing ambition with things. When teaching these two texts, it is best to focus on learning this writing. It's a waste of time for such a classic work to just learn the words and understand the content.

The works selected in the textbook are all good articles with both literary quality and beauty, and almost every text has distinctive writing characteristics. It is self-evident to teach these texts and guide students to learn these writing methods and apply what they have learned. But at present, in some places, reading and writing are two skins, which separates the relationship between reading and writing, obliterates the demonstration role of teaching materials and reduces the use value of teaching materials. This practice deserves reflection.

At present, the voice of returning to the true colors of Chinese teaching is getting stronger and stronger, and many teachers realize the importance of returning to the true colors of Chinese teaching. What is the true nature of Chinese teaching? According to my understanding, the essence of Chinese teaching is to guide students to learn Chinese knowledge, train their Chinese ability and improve their reading and writing level. Returning to the essence of Chinese teaching is to teach Chinese from the perspective of Chinese and make Chinese teaching full of Chinese flavor.
