The second level: collecting wind in the pear garden
Moderator: Li
Moderator: Just now, everyone was flushed in the answering session. It can be seen that everyone is preparing this lesson with great care. Let's walk into the pear garden and feel the profound connotation of the opera with our hearts. We usually see carefully organized performances by others on TV. Everyone wants to try their hand on the stage. As the saying goes, if you want to know the taste of pears, you'd better taste them yourself. So if you want to know the charm of China traditional opera, you'd better sing it yourself. Now, let the students act, and black and pink will appear!
Students perform various opera arias by themselves.
Students who are good at singing show themselves with their own voice and figure, while some students like to show themselves in another way. Let's applaud all the outstanding painters!
(Students' Facebook and handwritten newspapers will be displayed and graded by the public jury)
The third level: angry words sword
Teacher: I saw your beautiful dance, tactful singing and beautiful pen, and the teacher was moved by your spirit of inquiry. I believe that in the future Chinese learning, everyone will succeed! As we all know, with the development of social life and the popularization of movies, televisions and DVD players, mass culture has occupied an absolute mainstream position in mass cultural life, and China's traditional opera art has been greatly impacted and is gradually weakening. So, which do you think is more important, China traditional opera or pop music? Let's have a debate. Each team sent a member to participate in the debate. During the debate, members of each team can write their thoughts on a piece of paper and then pass them on to the debaters of their team. Now please go to the host!
Compere: On the positive side, traditional operas in China are more energetic; on the negative side, pop music is more energetic. The rules of debate are: the affirmative debater speaks first, and then the opposing debater speaks; Then the pros and cons take turns to speak in the second debate and the third debate for three minutes each; Then there is a free debate, each team has four minutes, and finally the two sides make a four-minute summary statement. Let's start the debate now. Please demonstrate the argument first.
There are three typical forms of drama culture in the world: one is drama, the other is ballet, and the third is Chinese Peking Opera. China's opera matured late, and it didn't form a complete form until the 2nd century. It has gone through a long and bumpy road. After more than 800 years of continuous enrichment, innovation and development, it has continued to this day, showing strong vitality. In today's collision and exchange of Chinese and foreign drama cultures, China's drama not only shows the strong tradition of China's national drama, but also has an increasing influence on the future development of the world drama art. Therefore, we think that China traditional opera is more vital.
Contrary 1: We think pop music is more vital because its melody is beautiful and changeable. The biggest feature is that it is suitable for venting emotions. Please note that we are talking about emotions rather than feelings, venting rather than expressing. Instrumental works in pop music are characterized by lively rhythm, lightness and liveliness or lyrical beauty. Lyrics are often written in the language of life, which is easy to understand and easily accepted and sung by the audience. Vocal music methods have their own advantages, which are not bound by vocal music school, natural and cordial, and easily arouse the audience's * * *. Pop music, like a bunch of twinkling stars and a bunch of flowers that never fade, will live in people's hearts forever, so we think pop music is more vital.
Founder II: Let me reiterate our view that with the development of society, China's traditional drama has gradually changed from an elegant art form to an art form that appeals to both refined and popular tastes. Gradually accepted by the public. The other party said: the lyrics are easy to understand and easily accepted and sung. Actually, Chinese opera is catchy, elegant and popular! The lyrics of China's traditional operas are a kind of poems and songs, but the poems and songs of each era are different. The teacher said: Song Ci and Han Yuefu are both fixed tunes that can be sung! In ancient times, people with a little cultural foundation, or a little singing foundation, could sing by the breeze and flowing water! So, do we think that only the lyrics and intonation of "understanding at once" are popular with the public? People also like beautiful and novel lyrics and accents. Didn't an old man selling eggs in Shandong sing "Crossing the Forest and Crossing the Snowfield" on the stage of China's Got Talent Show?
Counterpart 2: Pop music can make music interact with people, bands and listeners more freely, and people can express themselves more freely. Nowadays, human beings are more open-minded and creative. They are not bound by the past music style and need to express their feelings boldly. People love to pursue fashion, so pop music is more popular with people. The language of classical opera is difficult to understand, and it will be strange to our generation.
Square 3: The height and scarcity of music are natural phenomena. But it doesn't mean that the public can't understand. Some lyrics are beautiful, and then everyone will understand when they sing! Besides, we can learn a lot about poetry and history from China's traditional dramas. For example, in Shiro's Visit to Mother, Yang Silang's "introduction" was changed by Tan Xinpei to "lock the phoenix tree in a golden well and sigh with the wind", which is not attractive again. According to the other debater's point of view, this introduction should also be "true". Let me tell you something: there are two phoenix trees next to the golden well! I howl in the northwest polar wind! How's this? Too vulgar! Opera is an art, which originates from life and is higher than life, isn't it? Besides, times are different now, people's education level is high, and their cultural level is gradually improving. Isn't people's love for Beijing opera increasing? At the same time that the Spring Festival gala is broadcast in the Central Committee on the 30th of every year, isn't there a drama gala broadcast in No.3 Middle School?
Counterparty 3: I want to ask all the students here, do you watch CCTV 1 Spring Festival Evening or CCTV 3 Opera Evening on New Year's Eve? Please raise your hand at the opera party. Seek truth from facts, please hold high! (Laughter) Alas! Look, nobody is watching the opera party. It can be seen that traditional opera can't keep up with the pace of social development and is not valued. How can we say that its vitality is still tenacious in today's society? No matter what kind of art, it all comes from life. No life means alienating the audience. In that case, no matter how elegant and refined the works are, they will lack vitality, and what about the vitality of art without vitality?
Founder 2: Who says that Chinese opera is divorced from life and alienates the audience? In the 1940s, Mr. Zhu Ziqing once said: "The words of the Tang Dynasty, the words of the Five Dynasties and the Northern Song Dynasty, the Sanqu Zaju of the Yuan Dynasty, the storytelling and Zhang Hui's novels, the Pihuang opera, etc., really appeal to both refined and popular tastes." Teacher Zhu is talking about traditional Chinese opera. Look at it! Mr. Zhu Ziqing is saying: Tradition is good!
Counterparty: OK, I'll ask my opponent. You just said: if it is a tradition, it must be inherited! Yes! China women have been bound feet for thousands of years. Why not now?
(Free debate time)
Moderator: Let's invite Sifang to make a concluding speech!
Four Debates: I remember last May, 18, when China Kunqu Opera was awarded the title of "masterpiece of oral and intangible heritage of mankind" by UNESCO, the older generation of artists and art lovers were both happy and worried: Can the excellent traditional culture be passed on to the younger generation? This kind of worry is indeed justified. We know that the spiritual charm of a country or a nation is largely contained in its own unique culture and civilization. Lu You and Xin Qiji, outstanding writers of Tang Poetry and Song Poetry, Yue Fei and Li of Beijing Opera and Kunqu Opera are all rare carriers for patriotism education for teenagers. However, at present, our education seems to pay too much attention to reality. Young students can only choose pop music because they don't know how to appreciate opera, which is extremely dangerous. To revitalize China opera, we must cultivate the audience. Audience is not equal to fans, let alone fans. The audience is a much larger group than fans and fans. For China opera, the audience is the soil for survival. Fans and fans must first become spectators, and then fans and fans. In the late 1920s, Mei Lanfang performed in the United States, which was a great success. In 200 1 year, The Nightingale directed by Mr. Kuisheng, the author's teacher, was performed in Germany, and the performance was also very successful. We can make foreigners like opera, why can't we make China people like opera? Students, China's operas have a long history and strong vitality. We can't let her decline in our century, carry forward the national culture and inherit the quintessence of the country and the soul of the people. There are many things waiting for us to do ... (long applause)
Counterparty 4: Dear students, if you were given a ticket for a theater or a pop concert, and only one ticket was allowed, which one would you choose? Obviously, people will not hesitate to choose tickets for pop music. It can be seen that although classical opera has a long history, it can now be compared with fast-paced pop music. The vitality of traditional opera is weakening, while the vitality of pop music is increasing. We like Jay Chou, we like @ # #, and most of us born in 1990s like pop songs! Therefore, we believe that pop music has stronger vitality.
Moderator: Finally, please ask the teacher to comment!
Teacher: Culture is an uninterrupted river, an organic combination of tradition and reality. At different stages of this river, people have completely different values about tradition. Today, the students' debate was wonderful and gave the teacher a vivid cultural lesson. Tradition and reality have had a fierce impact on you, and also made teachers realize their great responsibility as cultural inheritors. China's traditional operas need innovation and fresh blood. If we combine traditional drama with pop music, we can make them shine! You can make most people, especially the post-90s generation, accept them. Finally, listen to a song, which is a clever combination of traditional opera and pop music. Let's end today's opera tour with wonderful music! (Play the song "Huangmei Opera")
Living on the big stage of opera is more exciting.
-After-class Reflection on "Walking into the Grand Stage of China Opera"
Sun Lijing, Rongcheng Experimental Middle School
The comprehensive learning open class "Walking into the Stage of Chinese Opera" has been recognized by the class leaders and teachers as a whole. Also won the students' love. In many open classes I have talked about, it is also a complete merit. I think there are two successes:
First, let the classroom "live"
I divided the whole class into three parts and used different forms such as "speaking, singing, drawing and arguing" to run through the whole class. In the first level-the wise is king, I focused on cultivating children's ability to answer questions first. The second level-collecting the scenery in the pear garden, I let the children go out and express the opera in the form they are good at. Some children choose to sing classic arias, while others choose to imitate the actor's figure. If you can't sing, you can draw faces on all kinds of unimaginable things, or run a handwritten newspaper about traditional Chinese opera. Here, children's painting and performance talents are displayed. The third level-angry words sword, children read books online to find information. On the one hand, they prepare their own positive speeches, on the other hand, they look for loopholes in each other's speeches to attack, and sparks of wisdom collide in the debate.
Second, let students "move"
This class is a favorite of students. Everyone has the tasks of this class, such as answering questions, drawing pictures, running newspapers, singing operas, grading, marking and debating ... It should be said that every child is the protagonist of this class! They no longer watch other people's performances from a distance, but participate in them themselves. The change of roles makes them useful. There is also a feeling of being needed and valued, which is the theme and essence of "life-oriented classroom".
A few regrets:
First, due to time, the preparation for this course is not sufficient. In fact, comprehensive Chinese learning requires students to do a lot of preparatory work. In desperation, I represented some tasks that should have been completed by children alone. For example: guide them to sing personal songs; Instruct them to draw creative faces; Teach them how to find the enemy's loopholes, and then "strike and destroy" them ... I know that if there is enough time, children will be more excited than me if they have their own information and create their own!
Second, the diversity of forms will inevitably lead to a wide range of content. I mobilized the students' enthusiasm to the maximum extent, but looking back at the questions in the first link, the performances in the second link were all a mere formality. Although the children really participated in the third link, we had to come to an abrupt end as soon as we got into it.
In short, no matter how brilliant the success is, there is still a chance to recover the pain. I will carry forward my advantages, correct my shortcomings and try my best to make my regrets less and less.
Maybe this course will not be the content of the exam, but I know it will leave many memories for children. Maybe a small Chinese class can make future hosts, lawyers, Peking Opera actors and so on. Even if it is not so effective, it will leave the most wonderful page in their ordinary life in the future!
……
A class passed quietly like this, but I still have a lot to think about …
