The influence of music education on children. The shaping of children's character
As the saying goes: at the age of three, you look down on the small, and at the age of seven, you look down on the old. Therefore, if you want to shape a child's good character, you must start with the doll. Music has a great influence on shaping people's character: when listening to music, the nucleus accumbens in the brain is activated, triggering the release of dopamine, which is a "happy substance" existing in the ventral tegmental area of the brain. This method is called brain reward system. Therefore, children's early music enlightenment education can stimulate the release of dopamine in children's brains and become more happy and cheerful. Cheerful children are better at expressing, dare to express, and of course have better social skills!
Second, exercise children's language ability.
Children's first literary form is nursery rhymes. Children's songs are simple in melody and light in rhythm, which is very suitable for children to remember. Children's songs can be quickly absorbed and accepted by children even if they can't be expressed in rich language. Because music is also a form of language, children who have been exposed to music enlightenment education will naturally have a (neural) mechanism connection in their brain structure to learn language. Moreover, rhythm perception, as a very important cognitive skill, helps the baby to punctuate sentences, understand semantics and distinguish different sounds. Therefore, music can improve children's language ability.
Third, provide children with room for imagination.
Music is invisible and intangible. Early music enlightenment education for children makes children have a wild imagination of music, which is manifested in the phenomenon that children occasionally hum unknown small melodies in their mouths when they are excited, or match lyrics with familiar melodies. It is a process of secondary creation. We can say that music gives children this kind of imagination and creativity.
Children's enlightenment music education plays an important role in the development of children's brain. Listening to different and rich music will have a good influence on the development of children's left and right brains. For example, soothing classical music can stimulate the right brain, and songs with lyrics can stimulate the left brain. Therefore, it is very important to expose children to music in the early music enlightenment education of 0-6 years old.
Fourth, music enlightenment education has played a role in promoting children's intellectual development.
After years of research, scientists have confirmed that the human brain has an obvious division of functions. The left and right hemispheres of the brain have their own functions, but they are coordinated with each other. The left hemisphere of the brain is in charge of logical thinking, which is responsible for processing and analyzing information related to language and mathematics; The right hemisphere of the brain has the ability to think logically, especially in images such as music and painting. Only when the left and right hemispheres of the brain cross, can image thinking and abstract thinking be coordinated and the function of the human brain be brought into full play.
1, music enlightenment education has tapped children's imagination and creativity.
Music, with sound as its material, is an art of expressing feelings through sound. It has a completely different expressive force from literature and art. Painting depicts objects with vivid images, while literature truly expresses ideas and concepts with language. Music is better at expressing people's feelings. Let children enjoy music, sing, practice rhythm and participate in music activities. All of them contain rich and delicate expressions of human feelings. It can stimulate children's psychology of transcending other disciplines, and make children's emotional stimulation and appeal more direct and intense. This kind of emotional stimulation and impulse is the enlightenment and promotion of children's intelligence, giving wings to children's imagination and inspiring great innovative thinking potential. Some excellent scientists are often inspired by music. Therefore, it is correct to use music as the golden key to open the door to their imagination and creativity in early childhood.
2. Music enlightenment education promotes the improvement of children's language ability.
Language is the most basic way of communication between people. With language, there will be inner activities between people. Therefore, it is very important to cultivate their language ability in early childhood. Children usually listen to more and more songs and learn more and more songs, and may unconsciously hum a few songs together to form a "song". When children engage in such creative activities, they not only improve their language ability, but also make them feel the joy of using language. This happy learning method is a favorable teaching method and has a good effect on children's language expression ability. In addition, children's music activities are not single, but also participate in group activities, which need to be completed by many people. The communication between children is inevitable, which makes their language develop to a higher level.
Fifth, music enlightenment education can cultivate children's emotions.
Any art is an expression of human emotions and an important aspect of human socialization. As the most emotional art form, music naturally plays an irreplaceable role in cultivating children's noble emotions and aesthetic tastes. Wagner, a German composer, said: "The organ of the mind is music, and the language of the artistic consciousness of the mind is music." Cultivate children's aesthetic ability. It is a child's nature to love music. Children come into this world with curiosity and inquiry. When they open their eyes, they will look for bright and bright colors and see a colorful world. When they pricked up their ears, they would listen to their mother's voice and the rich and varied acoustics in the environment. Beautiful and bright colors and patterns can meet children's visual needs, while beautiful and pleasant music is the best stimulus to meet their hearing needs. The cadence of music, the rhythm of Zhang Chi, the strength of ups and downs, the speed of urgency or slowness, and the colorful musical colors all show the rich emotions of music. Through sensory perception, children make the music they hear spread to the brain, producing special and extraordinary emotional experience, which adds positive motivation to children's excitement. At this time, the child will change from static to feel the fun of music with the swing of his body. For example, when children are about to fall asleep, we should give them a quiet and gentle lullaby, which will make them feel stable and gradually fall asleep; When children are upset and crying, they should listen to cheerful and lively music to divert their attention; When children eat, parents choose beautiful and lively music for their children, which can not only make them happy, but also increase their appetite and promote their health! Because music and children's psychological and emotional activities are consistent in form: they are all moving, invisible and rhythmic, and they are abstract with the present and the fading. It is precisely because they have so much in common that children are often exposed to and influenced by music. Music makes their foreheads happy, their hearts calm and their emotions stable. Therefore, music can beautify people's hearts, regulate children's emotional development and help them to further understand the beauty of things.
Sixth, the development of music enlightenment education to children's moral education.
Children's early music education also promotes the development of children's moral education. Any ideological and moral education can only become empty talk if it has no emotional foundation. Children's music education can cultivate a good emotional foundation for their moral education. When music realizes the function of ideological education, it does not depend on the compulsory way, but on the vivid music itself. For example, the children's well-known children's song "A penny" has the significance of moral education, but it does not directly say the words of changing money, but sings the plot of the song with the truly simple tone, melody and pleasant taste of the children that day, shaping a vivid artistic image and inspiring children: changing money is not ambiguous, even if it is a penny. Children's material life is given by their parents, so their spiritual life should also be given by music, which is an indispensable "vitamin" in children's spiritual life. Moral education is integrated into music education, so that it can truly care for people and make people feel happy. No matter what music activities children participate in, they can cultivate their collective spirit, make them form good habits of obeying the law and form good interpersonal cooperation ethics.
Children's music enlightenment education can cultivate children's public expression ability, the ability to play, perform and sing in public; Let children have confidence and firm belief in winning when facing difficulties and challenges; Infinitely give, guide children to experience the feelings of life in music, and give play to their creativity; Molding children's sunny, positive, confident, happy, brave and loving personality, children's music enlightenment education can guide children to become an excellent person!
