Music education methods in primary and secondary schools
Music teaching in China is still relatively backward. While China is still using the traditional teaching mode, some novel teaching methods have appeared abroad, such as Orff's music teaching method, Kodak system, Suzuki music and Montessori's sense of sound teaching. In view of this reason, we want to sum up more experience about children's music education through practice, teach students in accordance with their aptitude by different means, develop students' nature, explore the advantages of each child, and let children gain more knowledge from music through entertaining.
First, cultivate students' sentiment through music.
According to the purpose of Orff's music education system, we can achieve the highest wisdom of human beings and cultivate a sound personality through music. 4-6 years old is the stage of children's mental improvement, and music can play a great role. Let children enjoy music, understand the truth, and help them establish correct concepts in a subtle way. For example, the significance of the children's song "A penny" lies in educating children about the morality of finding money, but the lyrics do not directly point out the related words such as finding money, but sing the children's money to the police uncle with a sweet melody through innocent children's voices, showing the behavior of getting praise for finding money. In fact, such emotional education is often more deeply rooted in people's hearts than direct preaching. Therefore, in the teaching process, we can find more songs that make sense in life for children to enjoy and let them enjoy.
Second, teach students in accordance with their aptitude
Teaching students in accordance with their aptitude is an important teaching method and principle. In the teaching process, teachers can choose a learning method suitable for each student's characteristics according to their cognitive level, learning ability and their own quality, so as to stimulate students' interest in learning and help them build up their confidence in learning. Especially in the teaching of musical instruments, teaching students in accordance with their aptitude is particularly important. Because each student's coordination ability and thinking mode are different, in the process of learning musical instruments, the teaching methods should be adjusted according to the students' personal situation. If teaching is rigid, it may lead to students' resistance to learning, especially some students with relatively weak ability may lose confidence and interest.
Third, flexible teaching.
Because children aged 4-6 are poor in self-control, teachers should adopt different teaching methods according to students' acceptance. American musician Ramo once said, "We will try our best to let our children experience music." The source of learning is interest. First of all, we need to guide students to be interested in the musical instruments they have learned. Secondly, we should adopt different teaching methods according to the actual situation of students. Only by making students interested in classroom teaching content can they concentrate on their studies better.
(A) through the game teaching method. For children aged 4-6, it is their nature to be active. The traditional teaching mode may only be suitable for older students with self-discipline ability. Therefore, when teachers teach students of this age, they can let children participate in some small music games. During the game, children must concentrate on all kinds of reactions, thus playing the role of entertainment and promoting their all-round development.
(2) Use some rhythmic language. First, let students know some simple rhythms by clapping their hands, patting their legs and stepping on their feet, and then gradually complicate the rhythms and add lyrics or melodies. In this process, in addition to teaching students to master the rhythm, it also helps them to enhance their sense of rhythm.
(3) By introducing story teaching. Teachers can adapt the songs they want to learn into stories and substitute them in the classroom. In this way, students can understand music in stories, which not only improves students' interest in learning music, but also makes teachers' teaching content vivid. There are various teaching methods, the purpose of which is to make children better adapt to the classroom, which requires teachers not only to have strong professional knowledge, but also to have certain insight and innovative spirit.
Undoubtedly, music is one of the important ways of quality education, which not only helps to improve students' memory and adaptability, but also cultivates students' cheerful personality and good quality. As a teacher, we should proceed from students' physiological and psychological characteristics and follow the principles, methods and basic theories of children's education to guide education. Besides mastering enough professional knowledge, we should also enrich the knowledge of educational psychology. In the teaching process, we should pay attention to students' psychological development and unify music education and psychological education. In short, the work of children's music education requires teachers to have a strong sense of responsibility. Because students are young, teachers should make relevant teaching plans according to each student's situation. In addition to imparting knowledge, they should also pay attention to students' psychological development and cultivate students' way of thinking.
