To cultivate and improve students' modern reading ability, we must first let students know what modern reading ability includes. Generally speaking, the reading ability of modern Chinese can be specifically summarized as the following seven points:
1. Can accurately understand the meanings and expressive functions of words, words and sentences in a specific context.
2. Reading general narratives can clarify the levels, clear the thinking, correctly understand the ideological content of the article, and understand the language characteristics and performance.
3. Reading general expository texts can clarify the level, grasp the accuracy of content and language, analyze the main explanatory methods used in the articles, and distinguish the characteristics and emphases of different types of expository texts.
4. Reading general argumentative essays can clarify the levels, grasp the central argument, and analyze the methods and approaches of discussion.
5. Reading literary works can clarify the plot clues and analyze the personality characteristics and typical significance of the characters; Can understand the role of environmental description; Can grasp the theme of the work; Being able to understand the beauty and vividness of literary language means that you have the ability to appreciate literary works initially.
6. Have a certain sense of language, can master the methods of intensive reading and skimming, and can quickly obtain the required information from the reading materials.
7. Make full use of the information provided by notes and background materials to deepen the understanding of the article.
Second, analysis of the reasons why students can't learn Chinese well
In real life, students who are good at science often complain that Chinese is not easy to learn, their grades are not improved, and they can't get high marks in the exam. Every year, there will be some students who are good at math and physics in the senior high school entrance examination, but they are not promoted to the ideal key high school because of the influence of Chinese. It is even harder for China people to reach 140.
In the senior high school entrance examination subjects, most students don't like learning Chinese. On the one hand, they have a wrong idea that Chinese is a national language, so they don't have to learn how to become a world language. On the other hand, they don't want to recite things or study. In addition, in previous exams, they got high marks in math and physics, but failed to get high marks in Chinese, so they could not experience success, so they were not interested in Chinese.
Compared with other subjects, Chinese has its own characteristics. Chinese is based on words, and the article carries knowledge, records the author's experience, contains the author's feelings and reflects the author's unique psychological experience. It emphasizes understanding and sentiment, rather than memorizing formulas or complete sets of formulas to do the problem. This is especially true for modern reading. A paragraph usually has 5-7 reading questions, but the score can reach 15-20. Each question examines some reading knowledge, but more importantly, it examines students' understanding of the full text and whether they have their own unique reading experience. Therefore, Chinese is more flexible and open, which requires students' logical thinking and language expression ability. So it is difficult to get high marks in Chinese.
In addition, the extension of Chinese is life. It is not that you can learn Chinese well by learning book knowledge. What's more, extracurricular reading has been taken as the content of reading examination in the Chinese exam for senior high school entrance examination. Therefore, the study of Chinese invisibly increases the difficulty for students. Chinese can closely follow the pulse of the times and be combined with science and technology, culture, politics, history and classic works. Students learn Chinese in a wide range, and it is far from enough to learn by books, especially books. Children who don't master the correct learning methods can't learn Chinese well by leaning back alone, or they can't get high marks in the exam.
We have all experienced the senior high school entrance examination and the college entrance examination, and we are well aware of their bitterness. How to make students learn easily and get high marks in exams is a problem that our teachers should think about.
The level of Chinese literacy, in short, is related to the fate of children, in general, related to the quality of the nation. Our teaching should not only cultivate students with high scores, but also cultivate high-quality talents. In this respect, Chinese is an important tool subject.
Third, how to solve the problem of difficult Chinese learning?
I think we should improve students' interest in learning and change their learning methods. Several senior high school entrance examinations, I thought while teaching, and insisted on writing teaching postscript. After a while, I tried to sum up my successful practices and gradually found that I actually found a way to improve students' Chinese reading level. I don't know if it is useful to everyone. Let's talk to you here.
Keywords: interest skills training perseverance
First, improving students' interest in learning Chinese is the premise of improving students' reading ability.
Einstein said: for everything, only love is the best teacher, which far exceeds the sense of responsibility. Confucius, a great educator in ancient China, also said: "Knowing is not as good as being kind, and being kind is not as good as being happy." Junior high school students' learning is also inseparable from their interest in subjects.
How to cultivate students' interest in learning Chinese?
1, lead students to read the text and enter the world of textbooks.
Chinese textbooks not only have exquisite quality, but also show students extremely vivid pictures. There are landscapes, flowers, birds, insects and fish, a warm and warm world, a long history and splendid culture. Entering Chinese textbooks, students seem to have entered the beautiful nature and the magical world of scientific fantasy. Words lead students to swim in the ocean of literature and read the past and the present. Teachers should lead students into the world of textbooks and let them feel the richness of the Chinese world. Cultivating students' interest in reading texts is the easiest way to learn Chinese well. There are many materials suitable for reading aloud in the textbook, such as Spring by Zhu Ziqing, Winter in Jinan by Lao She, Haiyan by Gorky ... Teachers can guide students to read aloud and let them touch the world written by the author through words. The richness of Chinese textbooks can satisfy students' thirst for knowledge. By reading the text, lead students into the world of textbooks and make them have a strong interest in Chinese.
2. Guide students to understand the situation and enter the author's world.
Teachers guide students to analyze the text and understand the author's thoughts and feelings. Students should not only learn the text, but also pay attention to the author's observation and experience of social life. By reading the text, students can have psychological communication with the author, thus purifying their minds. It can also collide with the author's thoughts. When students' thoughts collide with the author's, students will feel the joy of success. This kind of happiness is beyond the reach of ordinary material enjoyment The texts selected from the textbooks are very rich in content, which are the main windows for students to accumulate and absorb excellent cultural nutrition. They have the characteristics of both literary quality and beauty, rich in cultural connotation and flavor of the times. However, compared with the student era, the author's era has a great span. Therefore, teachers should talk about the writing background of the article in teaching. Let students know the author's life experience, let students understand the author's thoughts more easily, and then grasp the theme of the article. For example, learning from Mr. Fujino can lead students to understand how Lu Xun's theory of evolution came into being, especially the reason why Lu Xun gave up medicine and went to literature. Learn Back to lead students to understand Zhu Ziqing's father's situation at that time and better understand his father's love.
3. Teachers create situations and give students a stage to show.
A relaxed, lively and orderly classroom teaching atmosphere is the pursuit of every teacher. In real life, we can see that if the classroom atmosphere is tense, depressing and boring, students' learning is naturally passive. If students want to study actively, they should be given a stage to show, so as to arouse their enthusiasm for learning.
Since last year 1 1 month, Dandong No.14 Middle School has learned from the teaching reform experience of Xiaodianzi Middle School in Donggang, and has also carried out the research on the teaching mode of "learning by learning plans and grouping linkage". In the classroom, teachers guide students to learn through independent cooperation and inquiry, so that students can change from individual learning to collective learning, and team members help each other. After the students fully study by themselves, the teacher provides a platform for students to communicate and let them report their gains. Students have a strong sense of learning, and teachers' questions or students' questions give students opportunities to exercise.
Five minutes before Chinese class. The host is a student, and the content includes the accumulation of famous sayings, stories, excellent film appreciation, speeches, reading experiences and so on. You can also try to let students be small teachers and give lectures independently. Before the activity, the teacher gave some guidance to the host, so that students could carefully find the information and prepare for class. When the stage is handed over to students, the spark of students' innovative thinking has been ignited, and teaching will receive unexpected results. A little teacher can only teach others if he learns it first. In order to make students like their teaching, they dig deep into the teaching materials. For example, I demonstrated one of the five poems in Unit 5 in the second volume of Grade 8, and then asked the students to practice in groups, trying to get them to say the poem. The teacher gave them a chance and their enthusiasm was aroused. For example, when explaining when there is a bright moon at the beginning of the water tune, a group played Faye Wong's songs with MP3, introducing new lessons, which was welcomed by students. The other group was inspired to make multimedia courseware to teach "Zero Crossing and Ding Yang". The teaching methods of these ordinary teachers have also been flexibly used by young teachers, and the interest of the following students has also been mobilized, and the learning potential of students has been tapped.
The teaching mode of "learning by case and learning by group" pays more attention to students' dominant position in the classroom. In the classroom, students are scrambling to speak for the interests of the group, and the classroom atmosphere is unprecedented. These learned experiences have played a role in my class. The students are looking forward to having Chinese classes every day. Because in Chinese class, they can express their views more freely and have more opportunities to show them. Chinese classroom atmosphere is relaxed and pleasant, and reading teaching is full of challenges and excitement. How can students not love learning Chinese?
4. The teacher's passion makes students feel the vitality of Chinese.
What distinguishes China from other teachers is their passion. Their language should be cadenced and present different styles with the teaching content. Sometimes it's like a breeze blowing over the water, sometimes it's like a flurry, sometimes it's like a mountain spring gurgling water, and sometimes it's like a rainstorm and white waves. Teachers are not only organizers, but also readers, participants in reading teaching and triggers students' emotions. The teacher's explanation in class is not calm. Teachers' model essay reading is the most concentrated release of passion. When Mr. Tangdi communicated with No.7 Middle School, I listened to his class. She likes to read by demonstration. She can grasp the students' heartstrings with her changeable pronunciation and intonation, make their blood boil and feel that every pore has been ironed. She inspired me that a Chinese teacher should be an excellent actor. Only you can learn to make students love me, love my dog and enjoy learning Chinese.
5. Open the reading space and let students draw strength from extracurricular books.
When I used to teach in No.7 Middle School, the school arranged a school-based course-reading class for students in the basic school year. The purpose of offering reading class is to make students form good reading habits and create an opportunity for students to dabble in extracurricular knowledge. As we said before, Chinese has a wide range of extensions, including extracurricular reading, especially classic reading. It is difficult for students to squeeze out a long time to read famous books on weekdays. Some students have neither books nor time to read books at home. Therefore, we Chinese teachers can make a big fuss by making good use of reading classes offered by schools. Through reading class, we can start with students' interests, gradually cultivate students' habit of reading quietly, teach them how to take notes and guide them to write their feelings after reading. If students persist in this way, their minds will be enriched, their language will be enriched, their reading speed will be improved, and their interest in learning Chinese will be further improved.
By the 14th Middle School, the school leaders had put forward the slogan of "building a school through culture and educating people through reading". Every class has bookshelves, and there is a reading class every other week, with two class hours at a time. The school has purchased a large number of books that are both literary and beautiful, fully meeting the needs of students and "charging" them. At the same time, the bookshelf of the class is also enriched by students donating idle books at home. Students can browse and dabble before lunch break. These practices are designed to make students feel the charm of Chinese studies.
6. Carry out the second classroom activities to link the learning inside and outside the class.
In No.7 Middle School, our school established the Green Wind Literature Society, opened a campus radio station and ran students' own periodicals. Members of the Green Wind Literature Society are trained by young journalists to report news on campus, especially large-scale activities, such as sports meetings. The Literary Society has its own broadcast-Voice of the Qingfeng, which is written, edited, hosted and broadcast by students. Members actively participate in the second classroom activities carried out by the club. The development of this activity not only trains students' practical ability and innovative ability, but also combines what they have learned in class with practice, which promotes students' love for Chinese from a certain angle.
In No.14 Middle School, the second classroom activities in the school are larger. Students can choose courses freely and form interest groups. Not only Chinese, but also other subjects have set up second classes. I feel that the second class pays more attention to the expansion of knowledge, which is of great help to cultivate high-quality talents.
Reading is the most basic and typical form in the whole Chinese teaching. It is not only a process of understanding language, but also a process of using language. So how to improve reading ability?
In addition to changing the traditional classroom structure, making students change from passive listening to active reading and increasing independent reading practice, we should also break through the limitations of teaching materials, broaden the reading field and pay attention to the usual reading accumulation. Teachers should guide and encourage students to read various articles. Anything healthy and easy to understand can be read, not limited to textbooks. Expand reading to extracurricular activities and use all the time and opportunities to read. In the teaching process, I ask students to read an extracurricular article every day, insist on watching the news broadcast, and regularly summarize and exchange or show their reading achievements through pre-class activities, so that students can continuously improve their reading interest and ability in reading communication.
It's not enough to be interested. What is more important is to give students special training in reading skills. Only by mastering certain reading skills can students turn their potential into ability. .
