How to Improve Middle School Students' Interest in Learning History
First, do a good initial class to stimulate interest. Teachers should carefully prepare, discuss and talk about the purpose and significance of studying history in class, correct students' wrong understanding of history and arouse students' due attention.

Second, humorous language arouses interest. For example, when talking about the corruption and incompetence of the Qing Dynasty in the Opium War, telling the story of "Yishan toilet against foreign soldiers" in humorous language can not only attract students to listen, but also profoundly expose the corruption and incompetence of the Qing Dynasty, the ignorance of bureaucrats and the feudal backwardness of China.

Third, question and ask questions to stimulate interest. Teachers should integrate stories and tell historical facts according to the content of the textbook, and skillfully intersperse some typical short and interesting stories related to the textbook, which will make the classroom atmosphere active.

Fourth, close to life, contact with reality, and deepen interest. We should seize the opportunity of linking history teaching with reality in time to stimulate students' interest in learning and promote the development of thinking ability. Facts have proved that once history is linked with current events and real life, students' emotions will rise immediately, their interests will be stimulated and the learning atmosphere will become very lively.

Fifth, do a good job in extracurricular activities and improve interest. Carry out some colorful extracurricular activities, such as holding historical story meetings, compiling historical dramas, knowledge contests and other activities.
