The "Dictionary of Psychology" believes: "Emotion is a person's attitude experience based on whether objective things meet his or her needs." Music is the most direct and vivid art form to express human emotions. The music brings great spiritual power to society. The training goal of music education is to "cultivate students' love for music through teaching and various vivid music practice activities, develop music perception and appreciation abilities, expressive abilities and creative abilities, improve musical cultural literacy, enrich emotional experience, and cultivate noble sentiments." "Emotional education has become an important process for the overall development of middle school students and an important step in the formation of middle school students' outlook on life and world view. How to cultivate students' emotions in music teaching has become an issue that every music teacher must consider.

1. Change the roles of teachers and students and activate students' emotions

1. The role of "tour guide"

The main body of teaching is the student, so teaching must inspire and awaken Students' emotional awareness, understand what students need intellectually, what they desire emotionally, and what are the bright spots or vague points in their thoughts. In this way, we can be targeted during the teaching process and release students' independent learning ability and consciousness to the maximum extent. Make the classroom "alive", let students "move", use hands, mouth, and brain at the same time, and know, emotion, and intention go hand in hand, so that students can fully and freely think and imagine, and let their emotions be revealed. For example, in singing teaching, the first question is: "What role do expressions and movements play in singing? Should we add some appropriate movements?" Let students use their brains and express their own opinions. Some say that movements can vividly express the song. In order to facilitate the better expression of emotions, the more the better; some say that there should not be too many movements, etc. Although these ideas are not comprehensive or accurate, they are a manifestation of students' independent learning, allowing students to feel the fun of using their brains, understand their own shortcomings, broaden their thinking space, and activate the classroom atmosphere. In this way, students' dominant position is highlighted, innovative thinking has room for development, students' true ideas are displayed, and students' emotions are released.

2. The role of "painter"

Lesson preparation is one of the important links in the teaching process. This link is like a painter painting, and he must draw exquisite "masterpieces". To this end, when preparing lessons, teachers should select materials, choose teaching methods, and use teaching methods well according to the specific teaching content. They should work hard on grasping the "key points" and solving the "difficulties" and solving the "doubts", and on the "connection points" of teaching. Work hard on the "support points" that improve students' innovative abilities and the "exciting points" that activate students' emotions.

3. The role of "director"

Classroom teaching is the main position for implementing quality education and the main channel for cultivating students' emotions. In this process, teachers are like directors and must provide Students create a platform for performance, so that students' thinking can continue to shine in the classroom. To enable students to internalize all knowledge and come up with ideas, discoveries, and innovations based on this, teachers must flexibly adopt the teaching materials according to the content. Various teaching methods and appropriate use of various teaching methods are used to make teaching fun, entertaining and emotional, thus keeping students in an excited state. Only in this way can students' minds be shaken and the sparks of thinking ignited, so that they can better develop their intelligence and cultivate their emotions in a harmonious and enthusiastic situation. For example, singing teaching in middle school music classes may originally be boring, but emotions are attached to every word and sentence in lyrics. Lyrics and music are the carriers for songwriters to express their thoughts and feelings. Therefore, in singing teaching, students should be allowed to fully appreciate the emotions contained in the works and transform them into their own emotions. Before learning to sing songs, students can first understand the creative background of the work, and then recite the lyrics repeatedly and emotionally to activate students' emotions.

2. Cleverly create situations to stimulate students' emotions

Human emotions are always accompanied by certain situations, which is the so-called touching the scene.

Teachers create appropriate scenarios for the topics being explored, and use film and television materials, homemade animations, etc. to inspire students' thinking and encourage students to explore, allowing students to acquire knowledge, master methods, sublimate emotions, and stimulate wisdom in one real-life scenario after another. We must take the initiative to care for students' curiosity, actively stimulate students' thirst for knowledge, and fully understand the almost bizarre questions raised by some students, and cannot simply deal with them with the "crime" of "taking advantage of others." On the contrary, teachers should take advantage of the situation, take students' questions, follow students' "genius" ideas, and do some experiments. Seize the opportunity to ask students some questions, provide a certain stimulation model, and do not satisfy one solution to a problem, but come up with new ideas, so as to bring students into a superb thinking space in the process of solving a problem, so that both It cultivates students' innovative ability and cultivates students' innovative emotions. It can also stimulate students' desire to understand, analyze and solve problems, and arouse the emotions in students' hearts.

3. Guide deep insights and stimulate students’ emotions

Teachers should put students in an atmosphere full of love and emotional situations, so that they can be naturally infected and influenced. Teachers must be friendly in their gestures, words and deeds, so that they can be infectious, integrate with students, and the teaching process can be harmonious, and the intensity of emotion determines the degree of affinity. Teachers express the sorrow and joy of musical works by changing language and intonation, and students are naturally infected and attracted. Feeling happy with the joy of the musical works, crying with the sadness of the musical works, invisibly guiding the students' emotions. Infecting students with true feelings has always been the ideal goal of music classroom teaching. When students' emotions are stimulated and they enter a certain situation, teachers should guide students into musical works, deeply understand the connotation of the works, and understand the author's emotions of love and hate.

For example, when appreciating the violin concerto "Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai", you must first understand the creative background of "Liang Shanbo" and understand the touching story of "Butterfly Lovers". Those who know the story of the Butterfly Lovers and those who have listened to the music of the Butterfly Lovers will always be deeply moved by this love story that has been passed down through the ages. Love is like this. It is the joy of two people, the admiration of two people, and the longing of two people that goes hand in hand in life and death. The most perfect embodiment. People use different musical forms to express this emotion, which gives them noble spiritual sustenance. The violin concerto "Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai" uses its beautiful music to tell the world about the ancient and beautiful legend. When students are immersed in the touching storyline, the teacher guides the students to appreciate it in sections. Different sections express different emotions. The moving music mobilizes our emotions, making us sometimes happy, sometimes sad, sometimes sad and angry, Sometimes longing and so on. The emotions that a person can experience in his life are limited, but if we are exposed to music, our lives will be enriched a lot. Through this work, it also tells us that the most precious thing in the world is true love.

4. Persist in combination and penetration to sublimate students’ emotions

The cultivation of students’ emotions is long-term and multi-dimensional. If we only rely on the limited time in class to cultivate students’ emotions, It can only be a drop in the bucket. To this end, classroom music teaching should be organically combined with extracurricular music activities. Extracurricular music teaching activities must be organized, planned, and perseverant to create a good music cultural atmosphere and make music quality education a systematic project throughout the entire secondary vocational education. Create a good atmosphere and harmonious environment, and give students long-term and subtle situational infection.

For example, organize some mass singing competitions. The school holds an "Absolute Sing" singing competition every year; combined with some commemorative festivals such as the "May 4th" movement and the "December 9th" movement, to mobilize each student's enthusiasm for participation, the competition lasts for a long time, covers a wide range, and affects an area Large variety arts and cultural activities enable students to sublimate their emotions in a good atmosphere where various art forms complement each other. Through the establishment of vocal music, instrumental music, dance and other music societies, and driven by the backbone of music, some small-scale teaching and performance activities are often held. This not only improves one's own musical performance ability, but also enriches the emotional life of other students, killing two birds with one stone.

In short, the use of emotional education in music teaching can cultivate students' sentiments, stimulate students' learning motivation, and improve learning efficiency. Today's students, due to their superior environment and the large number of only children and obedient parents, have developed bad personality traits such as self-centeredness and arbitrary behavior. Through emotional classroom teaching and the influence of teachers' strong personality, they can be helped Gradually develop a healthy personality and conduct, so that learning behavior is a powerful motivation for emotional impact. As our music teachers, we should constantly improve our professional level, explore methods and means to adapt to the emotional development of contemporary students, actively explore and integrate the emotional factors of teaching materials, combine and penetrate multiple emotional sources, and ultimately cultivate useful talents that adapt to social development.
