Qian Zhiliang: Children who can express themselves win as soon as they open their mouths

On the first day of elementary school, teachers often arrange for students to introduce themselves. Most students introduced themselves nervously, such as: \”My name is Qian Lin, I am 6 years old.\” Some children did not, they came up, bowed, and introduced themselves fluently. For example, \”My name is Gao Zhiliang, happy Gao, ambitious Zhi, bright Liang. I am 6 years old this year. I like singing and swimming. I am very happy to come to this new group and spend six years with you all. In primary school life, I believe we will become good friends! Thank you all! \”Who do you think the teacher will ask to be the temporary monitor? 01 Language Language is an objective phenomenon in human society and a socially established symbol system. Language is people\’s language practice and the process of communicative activities that people use language materials and language rules to carry out. The development of language is the transformation from a natural person to a social person for young children, and language is an indispensable tool for communication between people. This shows the importance of language to people’s social life. Carnegie mentioned in the preface of his world-famous book \”Language Breakthrough\” that only 15% of a person\’s career success depends on his or her intellectual skills, while the other 85% depends on communication and speaking skills. and the ability to persuade others. The future society is a more open and competitive society, but it is also a society that requires more cooperation. It requires more interactions between people and puts forward higher requirements for people\’s language. . Language communication ability is the basis for good development in the future society, among which oral expression is the core ability of language communication. 02 Oral Expression Ability Spoken language is the language used for oral communication and is the earliest form of language commonly used by humans. Research on the development of children\’s spoken language has become a hot spot in early education research abroad in the 1980s. Sweden\’s White Hurtal\’s 1994 study proposed that the development of children\’s spoken language is conducive to children\’s mastery of complex grammatical structures. This kind of training and development lays the foundation for their future learning. Therefore, oral expression ability affects the life and development of young children to a great extent. Oral expression ability is a basic quality for people in modern society. Being able to speak eloquently is an important condition for a person to seek development opportunities, and it is also an important guarantee for entering society and having a successful career. Today, as the competition for talents becomes increasingly fierce, people have clearly realized that oral expression ability has become an essential quality for talents. Oral language ability directly affects personal communication and communicative abilities. Therefore, language teaching in kindergartens should not only focus on instilling language knowledge in children, but should pay more attention to the development of children\’s language abilities. 03 Oral language ability development Early childhood is a critical period for the development of oral language, and it is the age stage in life where language learning is most effective. Early language development will affect a person\’s lifelong language development, and language development is also closely related to the improvement of children\’s intelligence. If the child not only has a good language environment during this period, but also actively receives appropriate language training, his language development potential will be fully developed. The oral expression ability of children in large classes develops rapidly, and their wishes expressed in activities and interactions are also increasing.Strongly, they share the interesting things they see and hear with everyone, and they also like to ask some \”weird\” questions to the teacher…Children in the top class are active in thinking and can attract the attention of adults. They like to interact with adult peers, but Due to many reasons, children\’s language development is extremely uneven: some can already express their wishes in more complete language; some are afraid of talking to strangers; some are afraid of making mistakes and dare not express their opinions; Speak freely when communicating freely with peers, but be reserved and low-pitched when speaking in front of a group. Many children have problems with listening and expression in their language skills. Common problems in expression and communication are mainly manifested as: not daring to ask questions; not good at talking and exchanging opinions with peers; not daring to boldly express one\’s own ideas or unique insights. However, oral expression is the basis of written expression, and strengthening the training and cultivation of oral communication skills is an important task in primary school Chinese teaching. 04 Improve children’s oral communication skills. Improving children’s oral communication skills can not only promote the development of children’s intelligence, but also help students learn various subjects. It is also helpful for children’s personality development and mental health. Therefore, it is necessary to start by analyzing and interpreting the \”Kindergarten Education Guidance Outline\” and \”Primary School Chinese Curriculum Standards\” to find specific ways to improve language expression. In the comparison, it is not difficult to find that the educational goals and guiding points of \”listening, listening and expression\” in kindergarten and \”oral communication\” in primary school are both connected and different. The educational concepts and guiding ideology of these two different stages are consistent, and the background of language practice can also be inherited and integrated with each other. The goal of language expression education in early childhood focuses on the development of listening and speaking habits and ability development as the basic requirements. The core is to cultivate children\’s basic abilities and interests in listening, communicating, and expressing language. The focus of kindergartens on cultivating children\’s oral expression is to develop children\’s receptive language and expressive language abilities, continuously improve children\’s listening level and quality, and help children learn to speak Mandarin correctly and express their thoughts and feelings clearly. Language is developed in a certain social environment and practical activities. Children\’s oral expression ability is, to a large extent, restricted by specific communication environments and the resulting subjective mentality, emotions and other factors. Therefore, in order to develop children\’s language, it is necessary to promote children\’s communication, enrich children\’s life experience, stimulate children\’s emotions, and activate children\’s thinking, so that children dare to speak, want to say, speak, and speak. ① Create an equal and relaxed interpersonal atmosphere, so that children dare to speak. A person\’s courage to speak and how well he speaks are closely related to the atmosphere when he speaks. When the atmosphere is good when speaking, people\’s interest will be high, their emotions will be higher, and their conversation will be more interesting. In this way, they will be free and talk freely. If the atmosphere when speaking is not good, people\’s mood will be low, and of course they will not be in a good mood to speak. Especially for 5 to 6-year-old children, because they lack the ability to self-evaluate, they rely on adults to evaluate themselves as good or bad. Therefore, if they can see adults\’ approving eyes and nods frequently when speaking, they will think that they have spoken well. , you will be more passionate and eloquent when you speak, and vice versa. Therefore, when the teacher organizes conversation activities, one isWe need to make the child feel that the teacher is a close friend with whom he can talk about anything and is worthy of his trust and reliance, so that the child can overcome himself psychologically and have the courage to speak. The second is to face all children, and use teaching methods that combine group discussions and collective conversations to try to create opportunities for each child to speak, so that each child can feel the teacher\’s attention in a timely manner, so that children can stand confidently among their peers. Speak loudly in front of someone. For example, during group conversations, leave simple questions to those children who are timid, silent, and don\’t like to express themselves, and leave slightly more difficult topics or summary speeches to children who are willing to express themselves and have a strong desire to express themselves. \”Little Teacher\” The \”students on duty\” take turns to let the children wait; thirdly, when the children are speaking, if they find that the children\’s sentences are incomplete, the words are used inappropriately, or the voice is low, the teacher should not rush to correct, deny, or interrupt the children\’s speech to affect the child\’s speech. Instead of being proactive and proactive, you should smile, maintain an amiable attitude, and use encouraging words to let the child continue to tell the story. You must believe that the child will get better and better as he talks. Fourth, after the children have finished speaking, the teacher should make appropriate comments. For example, first praise the children for speaking well, and then tactfully correct the children\’s mistakes and ask what they should do next time they speak (the teacher demonstrates and says it again); at the same time, let the children understand that everyone sometimes speaks poorly and makes mistakes. Just make corrections. As long as you speak boldly often, you will definitely speak better. ② Create real and rich language situations so that children have something to say. Image thinking of children in large classes still has the main advantage. Children cannot speak without the support of specific images. Therefore, we try our best to create a place for children to say what they want to say and dare to say. The language environment allows children to speak while doing and playing. Set up indoor and outdoor kindergarten environments with rich content, lifelike images, and educational value to stimulate children\’s desire to speak. First, in the new semester, in addition to arranging the external environment of the kindergarten, teachers can also set up regional games such as reading area, operation area, structure area, music area, and performance area in the class activity room during regional teaching. During regional activities, the teacher took photos of the children\’s activities and asked the children to watch and talk about them after the event. 2. According to the changes of the seasons or the different theme teaching content, let the children participate in the enrichment and update activities of the environment or the theme wall decoration section, so that the children can feel life, connect with life, understand life, and then express life in the operation. ③ Enrich children\’s knowledge and experience, let them have something to say, use literary works to help children understand and feel beautiful words and artistic conception of literary works, and guide children to apply the indirect knowledge and experience they have learned to their own oral expressions, thereby developing children\’s Oral expression skills. Some people say that reading an excellent book is like having a conversation with a great man. Then, allowing young children to have more exposure to excellent children\’s literature will enrich their life experience, cultivate their appreciation ability, and more importantly, improve their language level. Therefore, when we bring literary works to children, we firstly need to help children analyze and understand them paragraph by paragraph, so that children can gradually enter the story situation. Then put yourself in the role and talk about it. If it were you in the literary work, what would you do? Finally, guide children to emotionally perform literary works. The second is to transfer literary works and enrich vocabulary. On the basis of understanding the works and combined with the children\’s life experience, the teacher consciously guides the children to correctly apply the beautiful words and sentences in the literary works to their daily lives, constantly enriching the children\’s vocabulary and improving the children\’s oral expression ability. ④ Provide free space for children to talk when they have something to say. Use the scattered time when children come to the kindergarten, after meals, play games, and leave the kindergarten to find interesting topics and have individual conversations with children. Especially for children who are timid, have low self-esteem, and generally don\’t like to talk, talk to them purposefully, understand their inner world, explore their shining points, and encourage them to speak out boldly, so that every child\’s language can be enriched. Got exercise and developed. In addition, attention needs to be paid to interactive communication at home. In addition to regulating the language used in their own communications, parents must also cooperate with kindergarten teachers to cultivate children\’s oral expression skills purposefully and consciously. ①Every day parents go home and take some time to ask their children to talk about what they learned in kindergarten, tell interesting things that happened in the class, and record the stories and imitated poems retold by the children (if the children do not know how, parents will provide appropriate guidance); ② When a guest comes to your home, ask your child to be the receptionist, such as saying hello to the guest, bringing water to the guest, getting snacks and fruits, telling the guest interesting things about the kindergarten and what you have seen and heard, reciting children\’s songs, etc.; ③ For those with inaccurate pronunciation, For children who always make mistakes in their grammatical structure, parents should repeatedly correct and practice when talking to their children until the children speak correctly; ④ Take children to nature to meet new friends and experience life – listen to natural sounds, smell Smell the local flavor and see natural changes, so as to enrich children\’s life experience and give them something to say and a desire to say. Developing children\’s oral expression ability cannot be achieved overnight. Combining language learning with content from different fields and permeating it into life and the environment will achieve twice the result with half the effort. Click [Like], I believe that as long as we think and explore carefully, children\’s oral expression skills will definitely be improved.
