Hello everyone, I'm Shen Yi.
This is the 11th day of our winter camp, which also means that we are more than halfway through the winter camp, everyone should cherish the time more and study hard with me.
So what are we talking about today?
Let's talk about a question type that many parents were a little confused about some time ago-What do we do when we encounter "open questions" with no standards?
Encounter open questions
Want to memorize the answer template?
In this year's exam, there is a big trend that there are more and more open-ended questions, and many parents say that there is no standard answer to this kind of open-ended questions, and they don't know what to do; Or is there any answer template for this kind of question? Do I still need to memorize the answer template? Are answer templates still useful?
I still sometimes brush up on the short **, and I still see some people still saying, to do reading comprehension, you only need to answer a few points, and you can get a full score.
Is this really the case?
For example, let's take a look at the three open-ended questions in the following three 2024 final semester papers.
Question 1: Let you experience the effect of adding words in the clip, and then use the words to write a beautiful scenery in your heart. (4 points).
This is actually a very typical imitation question.
Let's look at the next question: let you use your imagination to write about the crowded scene when you visit the night market in a "combination of points and noodles", no less than 80 words. (6 points).
It doesn't say what you have to write, but it does require you to "put it together".
And if you want to write a "point" in the night market, you must be very specific, if you memorize the template, it will not be so specific, so it is useless to memorize the template. However, you need to understand the basic knowledge of the language, and know that a certain person, a certain stall, a certain kind of food, etc., this is called "point", and the whole situation of a night market, this is called "noodles". In this way, the combination of points and surfaces can write good content.
The third question asks you to explain your understanding of calligraphy in a few sentences in an orderly manner.
What is this test? It is your "order", such as from small to large, concrete to abstract, from point to surface, from phenomenon to essence, etc., these are called "order", and there is a logical order behind it.
The above three questions are all from the latest final semester questions in 2024, and you will find thatTo do these questions, there is no way to memorize the template, and the test is the basic ability in your life.
Face an exam with no standard answers
What are we going to do?
The trend of future exams is that there is less and less need for standard answers, and more and more tests are the combination of language and life.
So, does the child have the ability to cope with this kind of problem?
I tell you, very much.
Like below, I shared yesterday a Chinese New Year couplet written by a student.
This couplet is from my student Kiki in the winter vacation campWriting couplets is a very specific ability in life, and she was able to write such couplets in grades 3-4.
So let me ask all the friends in the live broadcast room, can you write such a couplet?
I've seen a lot of parents say no, and a few say yes.
Therefore, we need to see that if we guide well enough, children can exert great energy.
So, in the process of educating and growing up with children, how can we help children exert this energy?
First of all, parents must be involved in co-creation.
Learning is not only the responsibility of children, it is also required of parents to participate.
For example, Kiki-sama, she wrote a very beautiful couplet, so how did her mother do it? - Her mother completed the couplet and posted it at home.
Only by co-creating content with children, completing it together, and facing learning together with parents and children, can children have great energy and motivation.
Many people say that children are not smart, and it is likely that parents have joined in the wrong way.
Secondly, teachers need to be smart in guiding children's learning.
Let's take Kiki's couplet as an example, if I were a teacher, how would I join Kiki's learning.
I will use this couplet of Qiqi to expand and talk to you.
For example, talk about the requirements for writing couplets; Let's talk about the rare characters in the couplet, and expand to more rare characters and the composition of Chinese characters; Take everyone to listen to the lyrics "Rare Words" and so on.
As follows:
Why am I doing this?
Because the current exam will no longer only test how you write a word, nor how you can memorize and write silently.
In future exams, it will test a lot of rich and comprehensive content. It is necessary to extend widely, so that children's thinking can be alive, and their thinking can be lived, so that they can cope with the more and more rich, more diverse and more difficult exams in the future.
"Nine Provinces Joint Entrance Examination".
A wake-up call for parents
For example, in the past few days, I have mentioned the "Nine Provinces Joint Entrance Examination" to you many times.
We know that the "Nine Provinces Joint Entrance Examination" is a question for senior high school students, and you think these questions are for high school juniors in these provincesBut have you ever thought that this is actually for all parents in all provinces?
This is actually a wake-up call for all parents.
That is, if we are still using the old way of thinking to face the college entrance examination, it will be difficult to get better in terms of grades for a long time.
Moreover, we see that the "Nine Provinces Joint Entrance Examination" also has several characteristics.
First of all, it is being read even more.
This "Nine Provinces Joint Entrance Examination", the reading volume of the question is nearly 9,000 words, and if the child's reading ability is poor, whether he can finish the question in the college entrance examination is a big problem.
Second, the number of multiple-choice questions has increased.
This means that there is a large paragraph below a choice question, such as the following:
To do this well, you need to read the above paragraphs, and then grab the key information and match it with the options in the multiple choice questions.
After completing the above steps, you have only completed one question. As soon as the number of multiple-choice questions increases, it means that children have to speed up the speed of doing questions.
Someone asked, teacher, is it too late to think about reading faster in the third year of high school?
No, he had to start practicing his ability to read fast in elementary school.
Including the fact that I re-read the "Five-Year College Entrance Examination Three-Year Simulation" to read in the first round of review in the third year of high school in the past few days, how can I finish such a thick book? And it's not just one subject.
So senior smart teachers, know how to "respond to ten", know how to learn effectively.
So when we are faced with the changes in exams, if we see many teachers on the Internet, they only talk about fixed templates, only talk about rote memorization, only mechanically talk about answers, and can only write good words and sentences, then this method will definitely be eliminated.
So what to do?
See for yourself:
If you do a certain reading question, you need to:Read it alonecapacity;
If the overall improvement of the child's literacy is requiredRead the whole bookcapacity;
If the child needs to face a complete test paper, then he needs to quickly switch between the strategies to write expository reading, discussion reading, reading of ancient poems, reading of practical styles, reading of ancient texts, and reading ...... of composition materialsThe child can switch as much as he wants, and then he can integrate and produce results quickly, then there must beGroup reading.
When you do a certain question, it is to solve a certain question, but to complete the whole test paper, you must rely on group reading.
This is an ideal way to read.
Group reading.
It is the best strategy for getting a high score on the exam
Friends who know me well know,More than ten years ago, I took students to do "group reading" training.
For example, the following student, the day before the 2013 college entrance examination, I took him to raid the "group reading", and the results were on June 23, and the college entrance examination results came outHe scored 141 points in the language test.
In November last year, when my group reading class "Shen Yi Reading Weekly Study" was launched, I said:In the future, we will definitely use the reading method and teaching method frequently, which is "group reading".
(1) What is group reading?
"Group article" is a group of articles gathered together, with a main article, and then use the clues or topics of this main article to expand and read more texts.
In this way, students will not only read more more (also called "1+x"), but also read more efficiently, and will also gain a more comprehensive and critical understanding of a thing.
For example, the topic of the main article is:"Success".Then, around the topic of success, we will read more articles about success, so as to have a richer, deeper and comprehensive understanding of the word "success", and finally form our own opinions.
If the traditional teaching method is to pursue the increase of knowledge and the change of quantity; In addition to the amount of knowledge that group reading must be much more than traditional reading, it also pursues the improvement of language thinking, the pursuit of thinking and real qualitative change.
Therefore, I recommend that we do "group reading" training at least once a week.
A cycle of "group reading" also includes at least the following 3 steps (aspects):
Multi-text reading with themes.
Multi-text reading, on the one hand, can increase the amount of reading, and on the other hand, it can study a topic deeply. When the research is profound, the memory is profound, and it can be used as writing material and as the accumulation of our future thinking, and it can be taken out and used directly at any time.
A profound brainstorming and thinking training.
In the process of reading group texts, you will find that different people have such different views on a topic or a person.
For example, the person "Xiang Yu", from Sima Qian's point of view, is recognized and regretted; So apart from Sima Qian's perspective, what do Jiangdong's fathers think of Xiang Yu? What does Yu Ji think of Xiang Yu? What does the boatman think of Xiang Yu? Or later generations of poets such as Du Mu, Wang Anshi, ......Wait, what do you think of Xiang Yu?
After reading multiple texts like this, you will find that this process is a large-scale brainstorming and a deep thinking exerciseIt helps us to broaden our horizons, look at problems from different angles, improve our critical thinking skills, and finally find what angle we want.
Writing & Expression.
Like the final "Wuhan in my impression" of the Wuhan test paper, at the end of a group reading, there must be something that lands, this thingIt can be a verbal output of my opinion, or it can be a writing that includes self-reflection.
But in any case, "group reading" will have a training of children's thinking and expression.
The most important thing is that after the child has seen so many different answers,He knows that there is no standard answer to anything in the world, and we can feel free to put forward our own opinions boldly, and we can also have the courage, should, and ability to put forward our own ideas and opinions.
In this way, if a child dares to express and have something to say, it will definitely be an upper-middle article, and it is likely to be an eye-catching essay work.
The most important thing is that the child has the awareness and ability to think independently, and he can go out of his own way in the face of any problems in his future life, so we don't have to worry so much.
(2) How to carry out "group reading" training?
The first step is to choose a topic that you and your child want to **;
The second step is to select some good, relevant, and diverse materials around this topic, and 3-5 articles are sufficient.
Materials can be selected from classic classics, ancient texts, ancient poems, ancient books, and famous articles of ancient and modern Chinese and foreign celebrities; The material is not limited to any fixed genre or type, it can be**prose**; It can be hot current affairs commentary; It could even be a roadside notice ......
The third step is to read the texts, discuss them, and finally come up with your own opinion on the topic.
For example,How does the group reading course "Shen Yi Reading Week and Week" take you to "group reading".Target?
StillThe theme is the character "Xiang Yu"., I will take you to read the original text fragment of Sima Qian's "Historical Records: Xiang Yu's Benji", not only learning ancient literature, but also learning history, and what is the view of Xiang Yu in orthodox history.
After reading Xiang Yu in "Historical Records", I will take everyone to read the group text, so that I can change multiple angles and see how different people evaluate Xiang Yu from different angles, rather than just one voice.
For example:Zhang Ailing wrote a ** called "Farewell My Concubine"., from the perspective of a female literary writer, she talked about how Yu Ji looked at the overlord of Chu from the perspective of Yu Ji; Guo Moruo wrote a ** called "The Suicide of the Overlord of Chu"., he stood in the perspective of the boatman, that is, ordinary people, how to look at Xiang Yu.
So you see, a character, an event, there is not only one interpretation, we can think about it from many aspects, anyone can stand in their own perspective to express their thoughts according to a thing.
What do you learn today at Winter Break Camp?
- How to paste the couplet
After talking about today's parent class, let's go into the winter vacation camp to learn more and see how to train Chinese thinking and language ability.
Today is also a couplet combined with the studentsLet's talk about how to paste our couplet?
First of all, how to distinguish the upper and lower links?
The last word of the upper link must be the sound of the voice (one and two sounds); The last word of the lower link must be flat (three and four tones).
For example, the upper and lower couplets of the students in the following 3 classes of Inner Mongolia should be strange goods and can live in the miles are written correctly. The last "year" word in Shanglian is four tones, that is, the sound of the voice; The last word "spring" in the next link is a sound, which is a flat sound.
Secondly, should the uplink be posted to the left or right facing the gate?
That depends on the direction of the horizontal batch.
In ancient times, banners were generally written from right to left, and if the banner was written from right to left, then the upper link was pasted on the right hand, and the lower link was pasted on the left hand;
So if you say that according to the current fashion, the horizontal batch is written from left to right, then the upper link is pasted on the left, and the lower link is pasted on the right.
Normally, according to the attention of the ancients, the upper link should be pasted on the right.
Again, pay attention to the timing of the couplet.
If everyone is posting couplets on the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, then it is best to post them in the morning, which is the rule handed down by our ancestors. Of course, there is no problem in posting it before the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve.
The above are the three rules for pasting couplets.
Let's take a look at the couplets of the other 2 students, do you see that they are posted correctly?
First of all, the horizontal batches of these two couplets are written correctly, from right to left.
But the upper couplet of the two classmates is not quite right, and the upper couplet of the two couplets is flat, and it is best to change it to a voice.
