With the rapid development of dance education, children's dance education has become a more important teaching link in education. Due to the limitation of children's independent thinking ability, they are easily influenced by other external factors. The following are some methods that I searched and sorted out to improve the quality of children's dance education for your reference. I hope you like it! .

First, the task of education in children dance

The main teaching methods used in children's dance teaching are the combination of teaching and feeding, teachers answering questions and students learning. Children of this age are the best time to accept all kinds of things, and their thinking ability has just begun. Therefore, teachers should teach in a purposeful and planned way according to the characteristics of children in the process of dance teaching, and arrange the content of each class scientifically and reasonably. Children's dance teaching should start from the basics of dance, such as basic movements, basic abilities and basic skills. At this stage, the most important thing for children to learn is interest. It doesn't know the importance of learning like thinking students, and most of the knowledge it has learned is supported by interest. Therefore, in the teaching process, an important task of teachers besides teaching is to stimulate students' interest.

Second, specific ways to improve the quality of children's dance education

1. Stimulate students' interest in dance

An important task of education in children dance is to cultivate children's interest in dance and let them feel the beauty initially, which puts higher demands on teachers, asking them to integrate happy melody into the classroom and train students' improvisation ability. In teaching, teachers should give full play to the leading role and let students play the main role. To improve the quality of children's dance education, in addition to interest, another important factor is that every dance should be understood by children, and the content and ideas of the dance should be understood. Therefore, when arranging dances, teachers should try to be close to children's lives, so that children can give full play to their emotions and dance when they are happy. The dance that children can accept most is lively and interesting, which is completely in line with their psychology. In addition, children in childhood are vulnerable, especially those who are doubly cared for by their parents at this stage, and their self-confidence is easily frustrated. Therefore, cultivating children's self-confidence plays a very important role in stimulating interest. In the teaching process, encourage and reward more, and criticize less, so as to enhance children's self-confidence and let children play their own advantages in dance learning.

2. Take national dance teaching as the guide.

At present, the dance styles of children's dance are mainly lyric dance and narrative dance. With the expansion of children dance's theme, the styles and forms of dance are becoming more and more diversified. Therefore, the current children's dance should be guided by national dance teaching and make children's dance more colorful. Folk dance teaching is a very important course in teaching. Folk dance is accompanied by people's life customs and beliefs, expressing their thoughts and feelings, aesthetic taste and ideal wishes. For example, the Northeast Yangko, influenced by regional culture, has a strong local flavor and folk characteristics. Northeast yangko has both spicy and exciting characteristics and calm and humorous characteristics in style. The musical features of the Northeast Yangko are consistent with those of the dance, which are passionate, cheerful, humorous and beautiful. Northeast Yangko can cultivate students' reaction ability, master the measure of action, and embody the sharp contrast ability between release and acceptance, movement and static, strength and if. For another example, Mongolian folk dance has a long history, rich content and various forms. It is manifested in different forms such as group dance, trio, duet and solo dance. In learning, we should find the feeling after the movements are in place, such as the training of footwork: the flexion and extension of the knees keep the body stable and the movements are smooth and free. Students must also use their breath reasonably and find the feeling of Mongolian dance before they can perform, otherwise the effect will be counterproductive. During the performance, the teacher should guide the students to see the vast grassland and flocks of cattle and sheep in their eyes. With it, the performance will be handy and the audience will be infected.

3. The cultivation of children's creative ability

Children dance education is often taught by teachers, and students simply and mechanically imitate the teacher's actions. This kind of mechanical imitation makes children's thinking stay in imitation, and can't cultivate their innovative ability, that is, they can't play their creativity. Traditional dance teaching overemphasizes children's dance skills and pays attention to imitation. Now, the cultivation of children's creative ability is the focus of dance teaching, so we should completely change the traditional imitation and develop children's creativity through dance education. In other words, children's dance education should change the traditional skill-based teaching and advocate creative thinking teaching.

4. Selection of teaching methods

The methods of children's dance education mainly include demonstration teaching method and inspiration teaching method. (1) demonstration teaching method. Teachers must pay attention to their own demonstration of any movements and technical skills, or arrange flexible students to put the movements in place one by one to demonstrate. The teacher explained the demonstration process carefully. In addition, in low-level and young classes, teachers should constantly strengthen demonstrations and take students with them. For example: teaching level 4? Waves? In the exercise, the teacher first demonstrates the movements, so that students can have an overall impression, and then carefully explains the movements and requirements of the waves on their hands, and carries out individual exercises; After the hand movements are completed, plus the footwork, the teacher takes the students to play the game of small fish swimming. This is not only fun, but also allows students to better remember their actions in laughter. At the same time, teachers' emotions also infect students, so that students have a strong interest in dance and are intoxicated in the dance world during the aesthetic learning process. (2) Enlightening teaching method. Enlightening teaching: mainly emphasize persuasion and arouse students' enthusiasm and thirst for knowledge. Emphasize students' correct learning purpose, cultivate and develop students' independent thinking ability and exploration spirit. Or in the fourth class? Waves? For example, when teaching students how to breathe, most students can't use it well, so the teacher can let the students imagine the feeling of a small fish spitting bubbles in the water, and let the small fish breathe one by one behind the mother fish, instead of using the mouth, but spitting bubbles through the nose, and soon the students will understand how to breathe. In this teaching process, the teacher is naturally a fish mother. Teachers should use vivid metaphors for specific actions to inspire students' understanding and perception of the actions themselves, mobilize students' thinking ability in images, and master the actions they have learned faster through association; But also very helpful to the appeal of action performance. Demonstration teaching method and inspiration teaching method are both very important dance teaching methods. Although the methods are different, when they are applied to the teaching process, they are all taught with professional terms first, so as to increase children's professional quality and cultivate their study habits. Teaching methods are important auxiliary tools to help teachers complete teaching tasks, but not all teaching methods can be used universally. Therefore, teachers should pay attention to the choice of teaching methods. When children's dance teachers choose appropriate teaching methods, they should first choose according to children's different ages, basic dance level and dance type.

In short, children's dance education is also a very important education. It is necessary to choose appropriate dance teaching methods and contents through in-depth thinking and concrete analysis to promote the improvement of teaching quality.
