What is a stick figure? It draws the main shape features of an object with simple lines, including people, animals, plants, scenery and so on. In the simplest words, stick figure is to draw "Jane" and "image". So when we draw, we must delete the details, highlight the main features and simplify the complex image.
Stick figure is widely used in our daily teaching, which is mainly used to teach children to learn painting in art activities, and to prepare materials in other fields, such as demonstration paintings, pictures and background pictures. And in teachers' passing exams and basic skills competitions. So I want to share with you the problems that should be paid attention to in these aspects:
First, teach children to draw.
1, master the correct drawing order:
When teaching children to draw, teachers should guide them to demonstrate in person from top to bottom, from the whole to the part, and develop the correct drawing order.
2. Before painting teaching, teachers should have a correct understanding of the content of this teaching activity. For example, before drawing a kitten, it is necessary to understand that the cat's body consists of head, trunk, limbs and tail. The head is flat, with two small ears, two round eyes, a small nose and a mouth. Beards grow on both sides of the mouth. The pupil of the cat's eye changes with the light, showing a line when the light intensity is high during the day and a circle when it is wide at night. A cat has a long body, covered with fur and a long tail behind it. The cat's limbs grow under the abdomen, and there are meat pads on the soles of its feet. There was no sound when I jumped down, and there were sharp claws hidden on my feet. Only by understanding the body structure of cats can teachers correctly grasp the image of cats and draw their basic forms in teaching.
3. Use the correct drawing method:
The generalization and combination of geometric figures is an effective method of stick figure. When drawing a duckling, you can first inspire the children to talk about the shape of the duckling's head. What shape is the body? Then the shape of the duckling can be summarized in four jingles: "The head is round, the body is like a boat, the mouth on the neck is flat, and the eyes are semicircular." Let the children draw ducklings while saying jingles. In addition to geometric induction, you can also use graphic imagination painting and graphic addition painting. When drawing giraffes, I show two ellipses of different sizes to guide children to imagine: what is this? What shape is it? What is the difference? Then, I took over the topic: this big oval is a dinosaur egg, and the small oval is a goose egg. One day, dinosaur eggs came to play in the middle of the grass. Goose eggs wanted to play on this grass, but he wanted to stay away from dinosaur eggs. Where should he put it?
So the children have more than four answers: upper left corner, upper right corner, lower left corner ... Then I connected the goose egg with the dinosaur egg with two "telephone lines": the dinosaur egg missed the goose egg, so a telephone line was set up from the front door to the goose egg house; Goose egg also missed dinosaur egg, so she connected a telephone line to dinosaur egg's home from the back door. It turned out to be neither goose eggs nor dinosaur eggs. Guess: What animal is this? Then we discuss the characteristics together ... In this activity, I solved the problem of positioning the giraffe's head and body through graphic imagination and showed a lovely giraffe.
4. Grasp the dynamic changes of objects
Because the orientation and motion state of an object are not fixed, the basic shape is also not fixed. For example, the basic shapes of side pigs and forepigs are different. The pig body in front should be drawn as a circle, and the pig body on the side is oval. Moreover, the children's imagination is rich. They often say: Our little pig is dancing, eating and taking a bath ... At this time, we should guide the children in time to say: "What is the difference between a dancing little pig and a standing little pig?" Let each child draw a picture. Because of the children's personal participation, they can easily grasp the dynamics of pig dancing. For kindergarten children, their dynamic performance of objects is nothing more than four categories: the change of limbs, the direction of head, the change of standing posture and the change of front side. "To teach people half a bucket of water, you must fill it yourself", which requires our teachers to be fully prepared before teaching.
5, according to the characteristics of various objects to take exaggerated, anthropomorphic approach to draw, so that the image is more prominent.
In children's minds, every object is a life. They can laugh, jump, play and talk. Children project their life experiences on small animals. Therefore, our stick figures should be exaggerated, prominent, vivid and interesting, and expressed in an anthropomorphic way, which will be deeply loved by children and stimulate their desire for expression. For example, drawing the panda's head big can make it look more lovely, and drawing the bird's head big can make it look more lively. Let the bear put on a skirt and two little pigs tug of war. ...
When teaching children to draw stick figures, we must combine these points, which are simple in modeling, lively in form and exaggerated in image, making the drawing easy to imitate and learn, and deeply loved by children, so that children can draw stick figures well.
Second, the preparation of painting materials
In teaching, the use of stick figure is a basic skill that every teacher should have and an intuitive teaching method. Zhang Sizhong, a famous expert, put forward that "stick figure should be widely used in the classroom", which is a new requirement and a new attempt for our teachers. At the same time, it also shows that compared with other teaching methods, the stick figure has an extraordinary special charm.
Stick figure is an intuitive teaching aid. Concise, economical, practical and realistic are the advantages of stick figure. Stick figure, as its name implies, is to express the outline and general characteristics of an event through simple strokes and lines. Simple and practical, you can avoid the trouble of bringing a lot of physics teaching AIDS. Its humorous and vivid pictures can not only vividly express the teaching content, but also greatly improve the classroom teaching effect, at the same time greatly increase children's interest and improve their attention and memory, which is a good way to make the language alive. For example, in music activities, teachers can not only stimulate children's desire to express, but also help children master and feel music; In literary activities, teachers will use stick figures to record the main characters and key scenes to help children remember stories, nursery rhymes and words. In particular, a teacher can draw such wonderful images, which is more loved by children, and can also cultivate children's aesthetic and painting ability. Pay attention to the following points when drawing stick figures:
(1). The main image should be big, colorful and exaggerated.
(2) Unnecessary background can be ignored, because it will divert children's attention.
(3) Grasp the key points of literary works or music materials and highlight the key points.
Third, how to deal with passing exams and stick figure competitions
In the basic skills competition, there is a key point: according to the content of literary works, such as stories or poems, they will be expressed in the form of paintings, which requires us to do the following: understand literary works, analyze their levels into several sections, and show them on paper section by section. The main image is distinct, and it must be big, but it must also take into account the background.
Before drawing, the teacher must have a well-thought-out plan to design where to draw what, so that your picture structure will be fuller and avoid drawing mistakes. Teaching stick figure is a skill training course, just like learning a foreign language, you should read more, think more, practice more and use more. To draw vivid and humorous stick figures quickly, please remember the following five points:
1, observe
Life is the source of art, so we should pay more attention to observing, comparing, accumulating and collecting the shapes and characteristics of various objects in our daily life.
2. Lenovo (brand name of computer)
We should have the concept of graphics, connect abstract graphics with concrete physical images, and summarize various concrete things with abstract graphics.
Step 3 remember
Observe more, associate more, remember more and pay attention to accumulation. It is suggested to master several painting methods skillfully, such as remembering five kinds of paintings, remembering five kinds of figures on the front and side of people, and remembering three trends of various animal paintings.
4. Induction
Learn to induce, learn methods, find laws, and draw inferences from one another.
(1) Any complex shape can be decomposed into simple geometric shapes.
(2) Summarize and memorize complex shapes with basic graphics.
The objects summarized by circles are: clock, sun, apple, chicken and duckling, pig, flower, bear and so on.
Objects summarized by trapezoid and triangle are: lions, boats, chickens, etc.
Step 5 practice
There is no shortcut to painting. If you learn the method, you must practice it. Practice makes perfect. You can draw a good picture as long as you are willing to work hard.
The stick figure is to represent objects with familiar painting elements such as points, lines and surfaces. As long as you have the concept of graphics, pay attention to the use of simplified and exaggerated modeling methods, and flexibly use and combine points, lines and surfaces, you can draw a good stick figure and enjoy the fun of creation.
