Hao Guangcai, a picture book researcher in Taiwan Province, said: "A picture book is probably a book, which uses a set of pictures to express a story or a theme." Based on the understanding of the characteristics of picture books (interesting, graphic and philosophical), I think the reading course of picture books should start from the following aspects:
(1) Grasp the graphic interaction.
In picture books, when pictures meet words, pictures are not illustrations, but a special story language. The single picture we usually see is static and independent, while the pictures in the picture book are continuous and dynamic. It is this dynamic that connects static scenes into a story. Then, when reading picture books, we should pay attention to the connection between pictures and words, so that pictures can "speak" and interact with words, and reading picture books can be more abundant. If you just read words, what you lack is coherence. Without the participation of words, the "picture language" will be vague (except for books without words). Therefore, effective picture book reading should be based on the interaction between pictures and texts, so as to obtain a complete and vivid story.
(2) Grasp the details of the picture
In picture books, pictures are also an important medium to convey feelings. The color, lines and composition of the picture can convey the emotional content in the story. For children, the picture language in picture books is often more vivid than the text narrative. Grasping the details of the picture, you can see more stories, such as the color of the picture. As we all know, dark colors often convey sad and sad emotional content. Bright and warm colors can often convey happy and warm emotional content. In Baba Dad Looking for Baba Mom, when Baba Dad was sad, the color of the picture changed, and Baba Dad's color became dim. As the color changes, the atmosphere of the story also changes. Of course, in addition to grasping the color of the picture, we should also pay attention to the details such as the lines of the picture.
In the past, my definition of picture books was telling stories, but when I was grinding lessons in the picture book course group and constantly listening to the review of the picture book reading class, I found that I was ignorant. It is very simple to talk about picture books, but it is not easy to talk vividly. Slowly, through continuous learning, I have a deeper understanding of "kissing, crossing and knitting".
An experienced reader will go through some preliminary activities before reading to help him read more smoothly. This kind of pre-activity may be to arouse previous knowledge and experience, or to improve children's reading interest through prediction, that is, "guessing". In The Birth of Dad, the teacher told me that at the beginning of the course, the teacher asked the children to introduce their father first, so as to make the reading text more energetic. When I designed Baba's trip to Mars, I asked "Guess how Baba's father went to Mars" to stimulate children's desire to read in a predictive way. What will happen to Baba's father on Mars? "Children will walk into the classroom with thinking and will be full of expectations for the next reading. Therefore, some preliminary activities can be carried out before reading picture books, such as "connecting with real life" and "asking questions", which can arouse students' interest in reading.
In picture book reading, we can make reading active through role replacement. What is role substitution? It refers to the extension of situational teaching, which allows students to imagine themselves as a predetermined role through reading, acting and other means, and integrate their identity, emotion and role to experience the experience of the role in order to obtain a deeper emotional experience. In this process, readers will also have an immersive feeling, feel the feelings of the characters in the story, and thus enter the inner world of the characters. In the reading class of rainbow picture books, children will be role-played in each class, which the lecturer calls "acting stories". When Mr. Zhou talked about Diary of an Earthworm, he turned the children into little earthworms. When he talked about the birth of Baba's father, he asked the children to play Francois; When Mr. Wang talked about Baba's father's school, he turned the children into his favorite Baba babies ... In the picture book story, there are no fixed roles, and different roles should be set according to the content of the story. After the role is substituted, the child will really approach the picture book, because he will pay attention to the development of the story, which is the charm of "acting the story". In our class, every time we have a picture book reading class, the children will say, "I'm doing ..." In Baba's father's picture book, the children have learned to approach the picture book by their own roles, so the role is to join the club to make reading active.
Reading the story content does not mean the end of reading activities. If reading only stops at reading and reading, then the story is still an externally independent text. However, if the story content is related to the child's life reality and heart, then the text can really settle down and stay in the child's heart. Especially in the lower grades, children should be guided to connect their knowledge and experience with real life or inner life, form their own cognition, and have new views and new understandings in reading. After reviewing the course of picture book reading, we can find that most of the small challenges in picture book reading are related to real life through stories. Therefore, in the teaching of picture book reading, we should try our best to find the breakthrough point in the story of picture book and connect it with the reality of children's life. The picture book story Baba Dad's Journey to Mars mainly tells that Baba Braber brought a bean from the earth to Mars, which caused a disaster. This is because each planet has its own species and cannot be interchanged, otherwise it will cause a lot of trouble. Taking this as a starting point, I told the children that in our life, some plants are suitable for growing in the south and some plants are suitable for growing in the north. In this way, the story of picture books is connected with life, which not only deepens children's understanding of the story, but also enriches children's life experience.
Interpretation of teaching materials
Baba's trip to Mars tells the story that Baba's father and his family went to Mars by rocket and met Martians on Mars-Bobo's father and his family. Because Baba baby Baba Braber brought an earth seed to Mars, which triggered an ecological disaster. Finally, Baba and Bobo teamed up to defeat the earth plants that invaded Mars.
In this imaginative story, let students understand that each planet has its own species and cannot be interchanged, otherwise it will cause a lot of trouble.
Analysis of learning situation
This is the fifth book in the Dad series.
