First of all, the literacy of lower grades has decreased. This kind of burden reduction is not entirely the reduction of learning burden, but the pursuit of improving learning efficiency, stimulating interest and teaching students to learn to learn. For example, the teaching of primary school students' literacy and writing required more than 2,000 words in the first and second grades in the past, with "four skills". Now reduce the amount of literacy, and change to the commonly used Chinese character 1600, in which 800 will be written. Advocate "recognize more and write less", and no longer require "four meetings". Experts were also invited to do a special study on the frequency of children's literacy and writing, and 300 words that should be learned and written first were put forward from the perspective of children's Chinese life. There is a list of basic words for literacy and writing teaching in the appendix. The font structure of 300 characters is simple and the reproduction rate is high, and most of them can become the structural components of other characters. These words should be regarded as the important content of literacy and writing teaching in the textbooks of grade one and grade two.
Second, pay attention to writing teaching. In view of the general decline of writing ability after computerization, this revision has particularly strengthened the weight of writing teaching, and there are relevant regulations from grade one in primary school to grade three in junior high school. It is clearly written that "primary school Chinese class requires arranging in-class exercises and practicing Chinese every day".
The third is the new concept of reading teaching. In other words, reading is a personalized behavior, and students' reading feelings should be respected. Teachers should strengthen guidance, but they should not replace students' reading practice with teachers' analysis, and replace students' experience and thinking with modular interpretation. I especially put forward the following words: do less questions, read more books, read good books, read good books and read whole books. Increase reading and improve reading taste. Pay special attention to experience and sentiment, and pay attention to language sense. Pay special attention to extracurricular reading. There are also specific requirements for reading, and the total amount of extracurricular reading in 9 years has reached more than 4 million words.
In particular, this revision pays special attention to the inheritance of traditional culture. Nine years required to recite 240 excellent poems (paragraphs), including ancient and modern Chinese and foreign works. The curriculum standard lists some excellent reciting articles of China's ancient poems, from primary school to junior high school, 136. Among them, primary school recited 75 articles and junior high school recited 6 1 article.
The fourth is writing teaching. At present, many schools engage in "advance measurement", and it is not appropriate to arrange writing in the first and second grades of primary school. In the revision of curriculum standards, the orientation of grade one and grade two is "writing", grade three is "writing" and junior high school is "writing". In addition, it is emphasized that composition teaching must reduce the constraints on students' writing. At present, the practice of composition teaching, which is completely exam-oriented, only teaching composition with fixed topics, sending composition and accommodating composition, not only contributes to the style of writing, but also has a strong negative effect on the growth of students' personality. Therefore, the revision of curriculum standards pays special attention to guiding and encouraging students to express freely and creatively, telling the truth, telling the truth, and not telling lies, empty words or cliches.
