There is a famous saying: sow a behavior, reap a habit; sow a habit, reap a character; sow a character, reap a destiny. It can be seen that the power of habit is huge. Music is an indispensable learning content in children's life and growth, especially for students in lower grades. The cultivation of good music learning habits will help them actively participate in activities with a positive attitude during music learning and activities. Get the joy of learning music more quickly. By feeling beauty, experiencing beauty, expressing beauty, and creating beauty, we can achieve harmonious physical and mental development. So, how to train lower-grade students to develop good music learning habits?

1. Cultivation of routine music classes

Lower-grade students are young and lively and active by nature, especially For first-grade children who have just entered elementary school from kindergarten, it is not easy for them to persist in a forty-minute class. If we want them to develop good habits of abiding by classroom routines, we must let them clarify and understand the learning requirements. The first is preparation before class, because our music teaching materials are provided free of charge by the province and must be recycled. Two students at the same table share a book and use it together, and ask them to take good care of the book. In each class, I will select the two best-performing children to be the teacher's assistants, and they will go there when preparing for the next music class. My office collects and distributes books as rewards. In addition, music class is different from other subjects. For example, I require all the instructions for class to be expressed in music. The teacher plays four notes: 13 51︱1-︱. The students stand up and the teacher sings: 12 34︳5-︱( Hello, classmates; Goodbye, classmates), students sang: 515︱515︱51 54︱3 2︱1-︱ (Teacher, good teacher, good teacher, hello, hello; teacher, bye, teacher, bye, teacher, bye, bye) to respond. If which group performs well, draw a chart on the blackboard to see which group has more five-pointed stars, or put some colorful music symbol stickers on the children's clothes or faces. This will not only allow students to spontaneously restrain themselves , with good classroom discipline, they also learned some music symbols invisibly.

2. Cultivating listening habits

Music is the art of hearing. American educator Copeland said: "If you want to understand music better, there is nothing more important than listening to music. Nothing can replace music." Only by allowing children to develop the habit of listening can we improve the quality of music in the music classroom. Only by discovering more unexpected passages and beautiful scenery can children enjoy music classes and music, thereby laying a good foundation for their lifelong love of music, art, and life. Children in lower grades are lively and active, enthusiastic and confident, and have strong imitation ability, but have poor self-control and short attention span. Therefore, teachers should create a variety of teaching methods as much as possible to cultivate students' habits and abilities of listening to music. (1) Media reproduction method, using modern audio-visual tools such as multimedia to attract their attention through beautiful sound quality and animation. For example, "There is a Yellow Crane Tower in My Hometown", through the combination of pictures, text and sounds, students learned more about the cultural landscape and natural beauty of Hubei, felt the simplicity of the people in their hometown, and inspired them to love their hometown even more. (2) Question creation method. Before listening to music, the teacher asks some questions to stimulate students' attention. For example, in "What Songs Do You Like to Sing", the teacher talks based on the children's preference for small animals: "Today the teacher invited a lot of small animals that can sing. Please listen. What songs do these cute little animals like to sing the most?" "With questions, the children listened carefully and raised their hands to answer the teacher's questions. (3) Story induction method, "Protect the Lamb", through listening and thinking, using language to turn music into an interesting story, etc.

The development of listening habits is not only the process of listening to music, but also the process of perceiving and experiencing the works. Therefore, teachers should use a variety of teaching methods to fully mobilize students' enthusiasm and subjective initiative, change from passive "I want to listen" to active "I want to listen", and form good music learning habits.

3. Cultivating singing habits

Singing is the basic content of primary school music teaching, and it is also the most acceptable and favorite learning form for children. How to cultivate their good singing habits? ?We often encounter such a situation in class. When the teacher invites boys and girls to compete in singing, some children are afraid of losing, so they raise their voices or scream in a high-pitched voice, which makes people feel special. Harsh and uncomfortable. The new curriculum standard requires children in lower grades to sing songs with natural voices. However, the children do not know how to make sounds, and it is impossible to give them boring explanations. Therefore, I adopt a contrastive method in class to let students distinguish which sounds themselves. It sounds good. Through singing by themselves and the teacher singing, students gradually understand that natural, sweet, controlled, expressive and emotional sounds are the best. For example, "Lullaby" uses heuristic questions: When you were young, what was the sound of your mother coaxing you to sleep? Let them understand that singing should be done softly, slowly understand the method of singing softly, and gradually develop the habit of singing softly.

4. Cultivating performance habits

In life, we often see some people shaking their heads as the melody and rhythm of the music change when they hear good and beautiful music. , indulge in it. Therefore, I told the students that our music class is different from other classes. We can freely imagine when listening to music, relax our body, mind, hands and feet, and use our body language to move happily.

Before carefully designing each class, I usually collect some children's songs, riddles, and tongue twisters, and contact the art teacher to design some handicraft classes (ribbons, headdresses, garlands, hats) to meet the children's needs during performances. They can choose the props they participated in making according to different performances, such as "Little Balang of Childhood", in which the children sang and danced with homemade Xinjiang hats; in "In the Happy Festival", they held garland ribbons and enjoyed themselves to the music melody Waving performance; "Everyone Calls Me Donald Duck", the children wore Donald Duck headdresses, swaying and looking very naive. In such learning activities, they will be more interested and in high spirits, and gradually develop a good desire to perform.

Good music learning habits should also start with details. Music class is a subject that allows students to experience emotions, express individuality, shape personality, stimulate interest, cultivate self-confidence, learn to get along, and learn to be a human being. What students get in class is not only music notes, but also a creative activity that releases emotions and expresses themselves. During class, students were required to hold their heads high and sit upright, saying that the teacher disliked the appearance of little old men and old ladies. Whoever sat the most upright would have a small red flag drawn on his or her desk. If all the students are asked to stand up and sing and perform, and I make a gesture of putting my hands together and making fists, the students will understand: like a kitten walking, stand up gently, push the stool to the back, put your hands behind your back, raise your chest and raise your head in preparation. In the process of students' mutual evaluation, I will guide them to be good at using "glowing eyes" to first look for the advantages of others, and then talk about the shortcomings of others, so that everyone happily accepts criticism in a comforting encouragement. , correct one's own shortcomings. During various music activities, chaos will inevitably occur in the classroom. At this time, I will use a small movement, expression, gesture, etc. to remind them so that they understand what to do. For example, everyone is listening to music, but two students are talking. If you interrupt the music or scold them, it will affect the learning of other children. Therefore, the best way is to go to them, shake your head, and use your index finger to Put it on their mouth to remind them to close their mouth and listen carefully. For another example, when I asked students to open the book to a certain lesson, many students began to talk and talk. At this time, I did not say a word and stood there with a frown and a sullen face. At this time, some students shouted: The teacher was angry! There was silence in the classroom. Therefore, if the teacher correctly and flexibly grasps various details to provide regular education to students during class, and develop good class habits, the music class will achieve good teaching results.

As a music teacher, while focusing on cultivating students' music knowledge and skills, we should also pay more attention to the cultivation of students' good music habits. Successful education begins with the formation of habits. Especially for children in lower grades, good study habits will benefit them throughout their lives and play a positive role in enriching their inner world and improving their personality.

Let all our music teachers work together, research and explore together, so that every child can fall in love with music, grow up healthily, and soar like a happy bird in the palace of music!
