In children's language teaching, teachers not only need to encourage and inspire children's language ability, but more importantly, cultivate children's creative thinking in the process of "speaking" and let children reflect.
"Creativity" is to stimulate children's creativity while inspiring their thinking. Torrance, an American creative research expert, believes that the development of creativity can only be carried out in a free and safe atmosphere. Freedom is minimization.
Less unnecessary restrictions on children's behavior and thinking, giving children the opportunity to express themselves freely; The so-called sense of security means not criticizing and criticizing children's unique ideas, letting children get rid of their worries about criticism, gain a sense of security in creation, and dare to make mistakes.
Express your point of view. Therefore, only by creating a free and safe atmosphere in the classroom can children's colorful thinking world be displayed in front of us and get twice the result with half the effort.
First, some problems in children's language teaching
In the practice of children's Chinese teaching, teachers' own language quality has become the bottleneck of developing children's Chinese teaching and innovative thinking, which means that our teachers' own language ability and innovative thinking ability are not enough, which affects the development of children's language ability and innovative thinking.
Many teachers have outdated teaching concepts, pay one-sided attention to "imitation" teaching, do not know how to "teach students in accordance with their aptitude and adapt to local conditions", and do not pay attention to creating language use situations for children. Vivid language teaching has become under the operation of teachers.
A mechanical retelling activity also requires children to perform roles according to the given dialogue, which seriously hinders and obliterates children's enthusiasm and creativity. The behavior of individual children who violate original content will be affected.
To correct the teacher, this passive giving and receiving teaching obviously seriously hinders the creative development of children.
The teaching method in children's language education is single and the goal is chaotic. Either the teaching method is single and repetitive, which leads to the decrease of children's enthusiasm and interest in learning after a long time, and they are less and less fond of participating and learning and thinking, and pay attention to cognition in teaching.
Lack of requirements, experience and perceptual experience, mechanical repetition, rote memorization, ignoring the promotion of children's aesthetic taste and ability. Or grab the eyebrows and beard, and go into battle in various ways. On the surface, there is a lively atmosphere. After class, children
It is difficult to distinguish between primary and secondary, and the final effect is very small.
Second, in children's language teaching to cultivate children's innovative thinking
To cultivate innovative thinking, we should be good at using different ways of thinking. Practice shows that different ways of thinking have different effects on innovation. The disadvantage of traditional education in China lies in neglecting children's creativity.
Training, adults always determine the vision of children from their own perspective, adults always
Goodwill stifles children's creative motivation and consciousness. In fact, in children's language teaching, teachers should return to the role of children. Only in this way can we truly understand the children's learning situation.
The most common mistake made by teachers in children's language teaching is to educate children to remember what they already have, rather than to create it with their own brains. As everyone knows, this kind of "cramming" teaching has turned children into children.
Speculation has no container, but our children are not containers, let alone rigid tools for loading knowledge. We should overcome the disadvantages of traditional language teaching, innovate language teaching mode and effectively cultivate children's creative thinking.
As for the ability, I made some attempts from the following aspects:
(A careful selection of materials, to stimulate children's creative thinking, in a novel language form.
Educational psychology tells us that children's interest in learning depends on the choice of language textbooks, and interesting content can stimulate children's enthusiasm for learning and improve their desire to talk. Teachers should not only familiarize children with the content they choose, but also put an end to the use of a single rigid teaching material. Only in this way can children make more choices and tell a creative story.
Select the classroom materials that children are interested in and convey them in a novel language form. For example, choose a network animation short film suitable for children, and let the children perform and say the animation short film they have seen by playing it, and do it while listening.
Under the interaction of the senses, children dare to speak, create and express, which makes the teaching activities colorful, and children are full of interest in novel creative activities and their psychology is greatly satisfied.
The development of language performance activities provides a formal place for children to use language, which can cultivate children's ability to express their views on things in collective occasions. In the teaching practice of language performance, I found that children's thinking ability has been broadened, and their language expression ability, imagination and creativity have been greatly improved.
(2) Carefully design and train children's creative thinking in a scientific way and form.
A lot of teaching experience tells us that in language teaching activities, teachers should adopt training methods and forms to break through children's thinking inertia. Edison said that we should observe the novel ideas adopted by others when they succeed.
Only in this way can we produce unique ideas when solving problems. An important supporting point of creative thinking is to seek the opposite sex thinking. In early childhood, intelligence develops fastest. At this time, it is necessary to strengthen the training for children to seek.
Different thinking can broaden children's thinking.
In language teaching activities, I often use the method of continuing stories to develop children.
Think differently. For example, after telling the children the fairy tale of princess and pea, I asked each child to continue telling stories and give full play to their imagination. Children have a high interest in language expression and form interaction and collision in oral expression.
A lot of fresh creative thinking. The children are very active in this class, and put forward their own ideas one after another, which broadens the idea of creating stories and improves the level of language expression.
Life is the source of language, and rich outdoor life can provide good materials for children's language. If I take my children to an art exhibition competition, I will let them comment on each program one by one. Through comments, children not only improve their language ability, but also improve their critical thinking ability and creative thinking ability.
(c) Become an innovative and exploratory teacher to guide the development of children's creative thinking.
Be an innovative and discovery-oriented teacher and guide the development of children's creativity.
Creative thinking, improve self-study ability, and dare to adopt new methods and concepts. The training of creative thinking in teaching is not without preparation before class, on the contrary, because teachers and students need common brain stimulation in the teaching process.
Wavering, teachers will face more intellectual challenges. Therefore, as a teacher, we should constantly acquire new knowledge, constantly enrich ourselves and be a knowledgeable teacher, so as to organize teaching activities more effectively, improve teaching level and achieve.
Cultivate children's creative thinking.
In language teaching activities, failed teachers play the role of indoctrination, while successful teachers guide the enlighteners. A good teacher will always use vivid teaching language and vivid teaching AIDS to create vivid and interesting scenes according to children's age characteristics, so that children can describe and perceive images more intuitively, and then expand the content through free imagination. Teachers should not impose their ideas on children with different opinions, let alone dampen their self-esteem. An innovative teacher knows how to tolerate and guide. The essence of education is to make children become themselves, not children in the eyes of teachers.
(D) learn from each other's strengths and use a variety of methods for all-round thinking innovation training.
To cultivate innovative thinking in children's Chinese teaching activities, we must first break through children's inertial thinking and let children imagine freely without being limited by a certain point, line and area. Learn from each other's strengths and use various methods to carry out all-round thinking innovation training, which needs to cultivate children's convergent thinking, divergent thinking and intuitive thinking.
Aggregation thinking, also known as seeking common ground thinking and centralized thinking, is a kind of creative thinking, and it is a kind of thinking that aggregates all kinds of information provided by questions to get the correct or best answer. I often give children some descriptions in teaching, so that children can discuss and answer orally according to the descriptions, which not only exercises their language ability but also improves their creative thinking.
Divergent thinking is an open thinking and a creative thinking. Divergent thinking training broadens children's thinking and enhances the fluency, flexibility and uniqueness of thinking development. In teaching, I often provide children with some open questions, such as what happens when tadpoles find their mothers, so that children can spread their imagination wings to think, and the effect is very good.
Intuitive thinking is a kind of thinking that makes a reasonable guess, assumption or sudden understanding of the answer to the question quickly without step-by-step analysis. Piaget, a famous psychologist, said: "Children's thinking begins with action and cuts off action and thinking."
Contact, thinking can not develop. "In fact, in classroom teaching, intuitive thinking is the most common practice for children, and it is also the most closely related to children's lives, so the classroom atmosphere is very active.
Teachers flexibly use a variety of thinking modes and ask questions from multiple angles in class, so that children's intelligence can be developed to the greatest extent and their ability to solve problems can be improved to the greatest extent. Just like the way of thinking advocated by Mr. Tao Xingzhi, a famous educator, that is, "seeking differences in similarities and seeking common ground in differences", we should find the best things in children and encourage them to work independently-there is no creation of school rules and regulations.
In short, teachers should be good at exploring educational resources in language teaching, developing various methods, basing themselves on theory instead of sticking to it, grasping children's interest points, devoting themselves to cultivating children's ability to speak, think and think more, devoting themselves to cultivating children's creative thinking, making language thinking blossom and bear fruit, and making our preschool education a real education.
