Suhomlinski said: "Love for the motherland should begin with loving your mother." Love the motherland, starting with loving your hometown; Love the motherland, starting with loving the people around you. If a person doesn't love his hometown, his hometown folks and the land he raised, will he still love his motherland? Hometown is where we grow and live. Everything is love. It is necessary to guide students to capture the beauty and earth-shaking changes in their hometown from the life around them, be proud of their hometown, have a sense of responsibility in their hearts, and set a beautiful goal and glorious responsibility for building their hometown from an early age. Second, love the people around you. Family members, teachers and classmates are all people who live around their children. It is necessary to guide students to respect the elderly, respect teachers, unite classmates, cultivate children's sound and healthy personality, and make them realize that this is not only responsible for themselves, but also a concrete manifestation of patriotism.
(2) Love the motherland and start from respecting the national flag and emblem.
The national flag is a symbol of a country. If you don't love the national flag, you will not love your country. When the five-star red flag is raised again and again in the Olympic Games, every moral China person will breed pride; When Shenzhou VII went into space and the five-star red flag fluttered in space, the people of China were extremely proud. However, we often see that some students are still laughing and walking around at the solemn moment when the national flag is raised in school. Whenever the national anthem is played and the national flag is raised, our teacher must first stand in front of the national flag and set an example for the children. Pupils may be reluctant to accept the requirement of standing still for a while because of their active nature, but we have to repeatedly tell our children to stand at attention, stand at attention and walk around casually, which is disrespectful to the national flag and national anthem. Over time, students will have a hard direction in the teacher's example. When playing the national anthem, their ears will involuntarily listen, and when raising the national flag, their eyes will involuntarily follow. At the same time, please take the national flag and national emblem as a symbol of the motherland, and don't do anything that harms your dignity.
(3) Love the motherland, and start with small things within your power.
Patriotism is often in tiny places. As long as one's heart is attached to the motherland, even in an ordinary trivial matter, one can show patriotism. Take the initiative to take responsibility, love school and home, care for the environment, save water and electricity, set up a lofty ideal education, study hard on scientific and cultural knowledge, and try to buy cheap products made in China. This is patriotism ... When you leave the classroom, turning off the lights is a sign of patriotism. In public, consciously picking up the pieces of paper under your feet is patriotism; When you obey the order, consciously queuing to buy tickets is patriotism; When you overcome your shortcomings, trying to be a popular person is patriotism ... everything in your life is the embodiment of patriotism. It is necessary to train students to start with the most common and trivial things, be strict with themselves everywhere, strengthen their self-cultivation and improve their personality. Patriotism is no small matter, anything can be patriotic. If a person can't even do these "small things", how can he stand up and do "big things" when the motherland needs him most? How can you sweep the world without sweeping a house?
(4) Love the motherland and start from the activities around you.
Major festivals can create a subtle and quiet atmosphere for children. Tomb-Sweeping Day is a day to commemorate ancestors and martyrs, and a good opportunity to educate children in patriotism. In Tomb-Sweeping Day, the school can organize children to attend grave-sweeping activities in Tomb-Sweeping Day, let them make their own small white flowers and wreaths, and solemnly send their thoughts and respects to the deceased relatives and martyrs, so that they can know that today's happy life was bought by countless revolutionary ancestors with their own lives and blood, so they should cherish today's happy life and study with peace of mind. National Day is a glorious festival for the founding of People's Republic of China (PRC) and the birthday of the motherland. On this day of national celebration, we can create a festive atmosphere for children's motherland birthdays, guide students to review history and look forward to the future, urge students to be more strict with themselves, motivate themselves, standardize their words and deeds, establish a strong sense of historical responsibility, set up the ambition of "abandoning birds for new ones" and be small masters in the new century. Many festivals, such as Dragon Boat Festival, Founding Party Day and China People's War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression Memorial Day, are the best opportunities to educate students in patriotism. We should carry out corresponding activities at different times, give children proper guidance, and let them enjoy a strong patriotic enthusiasm together in the activities.
