Case description

Dilemma

Just started When I entered the workplace, I encountered drastic curriculum reforms. Teachers must transform from the original leaders and conductors into organizers and participants who serve students. They should advocate independent, cooperative, and inquiry-based learning methods. Teaching must adhere to personalized expression, stimulate the spirit of creativity, etc. All this makes me think deeply about teaching and educating people. How to make students as young as six years old active in the classroom, actively participate in teaching activities, and at the same time possess the qualities of modern civilization and learn independently in an orderly and reasonable manner has become a dilemma for most teachers.

"I know Chen Yi"

The first class this morning is Chinese, and the school leaders are coming to listen to the class. For this purpose, I carefully prepared a regular lesson "Chen Yi Visits His Mother". The pile of word cards and prizes alone kept me busy until midnight yesterday. I didn't have much confidence in this class, and I just prayed in my heart that there would be fewer interrupters and naysayers. As the class bell rang, I gathered my energy and walked into the class cautiously.

As soon as I walked into the classroom, I heard monitor Zhu Yingyue leading the whole class to read loudly. It seemed that everything was ready before class, and I felt secretly happy. Looking at the students, they all stared at me with their round eyes, as if they had realized that this class must not be messed with, which made me feel relieved.

Less than 5 minutes after the class started, when introducing the topic, I asked the whole class a question: "How much do you know about Chen Yi?" This question was like a drop of water falling into a boiling pan of oil. It suddenly became noisy, and this momentum made me feel bad.

Sure enough, after naming one or two students to speak, several students still refused to "stop". I knew that this would inevitably miss the main task, so I started to remind them with my eyes and gestures: "Let's forget it!" But the students couldn't care less about my thoughts. As for me, in order to implement the purpose of "serving students", I had to listen to them give a brief introduction to Chen Yi.

"Little Master" Zhang Ziyi said: "Chen Yi is from Sichuan, a member of the Communist Party of China, and has served as deputy prime minister, diplomat and mayor of Shanghai!" His tone was so proud that he seemed to be talking about his father. . "Big Trumpet" Li Zihan said: "Chen Yi is one of the top ten marshals in our country. He is a famous strategist, politician, and poet. He is known as a 'all-rounder in both civil and military affairs'!" "Little Smart" Tian Meng even said: "I I also know a little story about him, and I want to tell it to everyone!" He continued. I was extremely anxious and regretted that I should not have assigned the task of collecting Chen Yi's information. Looking at this situation, it would be hopeless if I didn't put the brakes on. I took the opportunity to comment on the students to change the topic: "The children are talking about Chen Yi's great achievements on the battlefield, but do you know? At home, in the eyes of his elderly mother, he is a good and filial son. Let's come Let's read the text together!" I sighed secretly - the introduction was finally completed.

"I have different opinions."

I turned around and wrote the word "filial piety" on the blackboard, "Invite the children to read the 12 natural paragraphs of the text freely, and then talk about where you come from. You see that Chen Yi is very filial?" As soon as he finished speaking, the students became active again. A few students who were fast at reading quickly raised their hands to answer. Everyone came and went, complemented each other, and spoke eloquently.

Finally, I took over the topic summarily: "Yes, if you look at the picture in the book, Marshal Chen Yi is very worried about his mother's health and his mother's condition!" I seemed to have entered the situation and began to communicate naturally with the students. Just when I thought I could go with the flow, "little cannon" Tian Yang shouted: "I don't agree! I have different opinions!" This tells me what to do! "You can't pour cold water on me," I told myself. Tian Yang stood up and said confidently: "Chen Yi is not worried about his mother at all. His expression on the picture is smiling and very happy. He hopes that his mother will get sick." What I thought was not a problem turned out to be a problem for the students. The stumbling block in understanding the text was something I had not anticipated.

At this time, I saw Zhang Shiqi, who had always been reticent to speak, raise her hand. I was overjoyed and immediately gave her the opportunity. She stood up and said generously: "Marshal Chen Yi rarely comes home once. Can you not be happy to see your mother?" I nodded approvingly and saw the rare look of pride on her face.

Then, Yang Tianshuo, who was very humane, also stood up to defend Marshal Chen Yi: "It is very painful for the patient to be sick. If you smile at her more, you can make her forget the pain. In this way, the disease will be better." Hurry up." I gave him a thumbs up and praised him as a considerate student, and he smiled with satisfaction.

I looked at Tian Yang again. His thoughtful look seemed less aggressive than before. Unexpectedly, his eyes lit up, and he stood up and asked again: "Chen Yi's mother is pretending to be sick!" This statement stunned the whole class. Maybe Tian Yang’s repeated stimulation gave me inspiration. I suddenly realized that this would be an entry point to guide students to experience the deep love between mother and child, so I asked, “Why?” “She was also smiling, and she didn’t look sick at all! "Critic" Zhang Xuan'ao stood up and retorted: "My mother has no one to take care of her when she is ill. How can she not smile happily when her son comes from all the way to see her?" Hu Chengqi, the "interruption king", couldn't help himself. He stood up and shouted: "It is human nature for mothers to miss their sons. When Chen Yi's mother saw her son, her illness was half cured. He is her mother's panacea!" I never expected that this time Hu Chengqi would intervene and make a colorful comment. , "You really understand mom's mood!" I praised him with a smile, and everyone nodded silently. Tian Yang was convinced, like a deflated ball, but I think he is more fulfilled.

“It’s wrong in the book!”

Finally, we have entered the last paragraph of teaching.

First, I ask students to read the text freely. During the inspection, Hu Ruiji, a "personality school", suddenly grabbed my sleeve and said, "Teacher Liu, there is a mistake in the book!" I asked curiously, only to hear him plausibly say: "It's inappropriate to use 'you' here. To respect your mother, you should use 'you'." I looked at the sentence in the book that Chen Yi said, "You don't know how many times you have washed my clothes since I was a child." I nodded meaningfully, "That makes sense, I still want to. Listen to the opinions of other children."

After finishing reading, I raised this question to the whole class for discussion, and everyone rushed to express their opinions. The words of study committee member Meng Xintian were the most convincing: "'You' is a name for elders, which can express Marshal Chen Yi's respect and love for his mother." After everyone reached a consensus, I strongly praised this person who dared to challenge the book. The students and the whole class applauded him, and he smiled proudly, which was the joyful expression of Magellan's discovery of the New World.

Then, I asked the students to take out their pencils and change "you" to "you" in class. While the students were writing, I found that some students changed all the "you" in this paragraph to "you", including the sentence said by Chen Yi's mother, "You are also over 50 years old, and you still wash your mother's clothes." The "you" in "clothes". I immediately brought up the word "you" for everyone to discuss. Many students objected, and the reasons were very good. Even Zhang Lei, who had always been shy, became bolder: "Elders use 'you' when talking to younger generations. Change it here. Isn't it the wrong way to say 'you'? That would be a joke. "Seeing that they can ask questions, discuss problems, and solve problems independently, I feel much more relaxed and natural. The students also learned knowledge in a proactive and conscious atmosphere. , cultivated sentiment.

Finally, the text ended with the students’ emotional reading.

Post-class reflection

“Give students the initiative in learning!” This is our loudest voice in the curriculum reform.

In the classroom, while mobilizing students' enthusiasm, teachers must also be good at controlling students' initiative and allowing students to gain greater gains from it. Opportunities and challenges coexist, don’t be afraid to hear students say “no!”

In this class, the interruptions and naysayers that I was most worried about inevitably happened. I was really anxious at the time. , however, I am very glad that I did not cut off this fuse that stimulated all students to think independently and actively explore, because I know: an ideal classroom should be able to hear the voices of children. Only when you have questions can you prove that you are thinking, and only when you have discussions can you prove that you are exploring. Children like to receive knowledge freely, this is their nature.

The unity of instrumentality and humanism is the basic feature of Chinese courses. I believe that it should not only become a relay field for students to inherit culture, but also allow students to gradually stimulate their own creativity and vitality while galloping. Therefore, "realism" and "humanism" must be closely integrated and firmly grasp the nature of each other.

Actively advocating independent, cooperative, and inquiry-based learning methods is the best way to achieve the purpose of Chinese education. In this class, I tried to give students the right to speak, and even allowed students to communicate directly without a teacher. Gradually, the class seemed to be injected with vitality and started to move on its own. This learning method is no longer a supplement to passive, closed, and receptive learning, nor can it be the "seasoning" and "stimulant" of traditional classroom teaching, but a learning revolution and a learning concept. fundamental changes.
