Calligraphy is one of the traditional arts of the Chinese nation. Today, when emphasis is placed on strengthening quality education, it is of far-reaching significance to carry out calligraphy education. Our school attaches great importance to students' calligraphy education and includes calligraphy in the curriculum. Children practice calligraphy from the moment they step into the school, and they fall in love with this art without knowing it. I think there are many benefits to primary school students practicing calligraphy:
1. Practicing calligraphy can improve students’ aesthetic quality.
The famous esthetician Mr. Zong Baihua said that calligraphy is "like Chinese painting, more like music, like dance, like beautiful architecture." The process of practicing, creating and appreciating calligraphy works is to perceive beauty, create beauty and brew beauty. process. Therefore, carrying out calligraphy art education is a good way and method to cultivate students' aesthetic ability.
2. Practicing calligraphy can cultivate students' good behavior habits.
When learning calligraphy, you should start with one stroke at a time, and be very particular about starting, moving, and closing the brush. This is like doing something. Starting a brush is like the beginning of doing something, and moving the brush is like doing something. The process of writing is like the end of doing something. By practicing calligraphy, one can develop a person's character of being serious, steady, and consistent in his work. Day after day, students' good behavior habits will be developed unconsciously.
3. Practicing calligraphy can strengthen your body.
Calligraphy can regulate emotions and cultivate sentiments. Excessive joy hurts the heart, anger hurts the liver, sadness hurts the lungs, fear hurts the kidneys, and thinking hurts the spleen. Practicing, creating and appreciating calligraphy can help stabilize the mind, calm down worries, cultivate the mind and nature, and calm the mind, which is what we usually call "psychological balance", thereby promoting people's physical and mental health. "Life comes from the pen" refers to this principle.
4. Practicing calligraphy can enhance students’ comprehensive quality.
Calligraphy works seem simple, but it is not easy to write them well. In addition to the internal skills of calligraphy (such as brushwork, inkwork, composition, etc.), you also need to practice and study the "external skills of characters" . "Character skills outside the characters" are very important to the art of calligraphy. If you want to achieve success in calligraphy, you must seek out the characters beyond the characters and the books beyond the books. "Character skills" means learning from "sister arts". For example, you can learn how to communicate through painting, understand rhythm and rhythm from music, find artistic conception from poetry, etc. Art is connected, and "sister arts" can often trigger inspiration for calligraphy creation. In the process of pursuing the improvement of calligraphy art, people's comprehensive quality will also be developed.
In short, carrying out calligraphy art education activities among students is conducive to the comprehensive development of students' comprehensive quality. After one semester of calligraphy study, the students in my class have already developed from basic strokes to the practice of simple glyphs. I have made great progress. I selected several children's homework for display, hoping to encourage every child in the class to practice seriously.
