Excerpt from teacher Wang Songzhou's "Swimming in a Boat: Taste Beyond Taste"
Published in Wang Songzhou, WeChat official account on 2018/05/09.
Listening to Qiu Jun coaching Mr. Shen Congwen's Laba Porridge on the spot is very tasty! This flavor is by no means covered by the word "Chinese flavor". At present, the so-called "Chinese flavor" has become more and more stale, stale and boring. This smell is not only within the Chinese flavor, but also outside the Chinese flavor.
It goes without saying that this lesson has a strong Chinese flavor, which is the basis and premise of her success. However, the taste of this lesson is beyond the Chinese taste, which is the transcendence and sublation of the Chinese taste, that is, the "meaning beyond rhyme and meaning beyond taste" mentioned by Si Kongtu.
1, beyond the language of Chinese flavor is really interesting.
The real taste of Chinese is just not in the language. When "words should not be ignored, language can understand its spirit" degenerates into words and dismembers the context, the taste of Chinese has already been dissolved as a dream bubble, as dew as electricity.
Transcending language is not to say that we are divorced from language and ignore it. On the contrary, transcending language is first to deeply cultivate language and plow on the land of language. But the earth is the mother of life, and it makes all growth possible. The earth must prove itself through the growth of all things.
In the same way, if language can't grow, can't manifest life and can't fulfill itself by fulfilling life, language is death, and the taste of language is the taste of death. And this is the last smell we want to taste, unless you can't wait to commit suicide.
Going back to Laba Porridge taught by Qiu Jun, so it is very tasty. First of all, the whole class is full of strong Chinese flavor beyond language.
Beyond language is modality. Take the teaching of "Then I'm hungry" as an example. In any case, this unremarkable word "Na" has nothing to do with elegance and is insulated from implication. However, it is this seemingly dispensable word "na" that vividly depicts the typical modality of Baer's porridge. The teacher guided the students to contact the specific context at that time, and accurately grasped Baer's coquetry, naughty, eager to eat, helpless and extremely unwilling expression by deleting and comparing and trying to figure out the reduction.
Beyond language is character. Similarly, when teaching Baer to discuss "sharing porridge" with his mother, we didn't see Qiu Jun leading the students to cling to the literal meaning of the dialogue. On the contrary, she skillfully used the language flow formed by this dialogue to remind the students that Baer's words were not finished yet, so that they naturally realized Baer's cleverness, selfishness and cuteness, regardless of whether they thought of Baer or not.
Beyond language is the mind. In the teaching process of guessing and watching porridge, Qiu Jun has gone beyond the surface language and gone straight into the deep structure of the language-repetition. Repetition is not only an abstract understanding of language relations, but also a profound insight into the characters' hearts revealed by language relations. Imagine, guessing is almost exactly the same as thinking, which shows how much Baer expects and yearns for Laba porridge. That pot of porridge carried the most beautiful taste in Baer's life at that time, and Laba porridge was everything to him and everything to him. For Baer, is there any other soul besides Laba porridge? His mind has long been filled with laba porridge. In fact, students will have another feeling after learning the complete text. Shen Congwen wrote porridge guessing and watching so well, not only because Laba porridge is also the most beautiful taste of his own memory of his hometown. Laba porridge of the former is Baer's mind, while Laba porridge of the latter is Shen Congwen's mind. However, what reason do we have to doubt that two hearts are one heart?
Beyond language is thought. It is the profundity of thought that makes the language profound, not the other way around. What profound language reveals is profound thought itself. As Qiu Jun provided to students in his teaching, Shen Congwen once said: "Some people in this world may want to build a castle on the sand foundation, but I just want to build a strong small temple with stones, and the temple is dedicated to human nature." Great works stand at the peak of thought, and great writers are talented thinkers. Shen Congwen's works are great, and Shen Congwen's words are classic, because he has hidden his profound metaphysical thoughts on human nature and truth in the imagery expression. Laba porridge is an image, and Baer is an image. The beauty of human nature, homesickness and life that Shen Congwen wants to worship are all in these two images.
Fundamentally speaking, language is never external to people. Language is modality, personality, mind and thought. Therefore, the so-called Chinese flavor is human flavor. If you can't see the person behind the language, if you lose your taste, what is the taste of language?
2. The Chinese flavor that is integrated into life is really tasty.
The various Chinese flavors mentioned above are only a potential Chinese flavor. You can explain it as beautifully as you can, or you can paint it in colorful, but I'm sorry, the host hasn't appeared yet. Without the input and participation of the subject, all Chinese flavors exist only in theory and ideals.
Therefore, only the Chinese flavor that is integrated into the subject's life is really interesting. This is the root of our appreciation of Qiu Jun's Laba Porridge. It can be said that the students in this class have tasted the most authentic, pure and delicious Chinese flavor. The teacher not only knows the taste by himself, but also is a language eater. He also tries his best to lead the students to know the taste, taste and aftertaste, and gradually makes the students become a new generation of language eaters.
Activate the subject experience. When reading the Chinese flavor of the word "in and out", Qiu Jun asked the students: "Now, you are all eight children. I want to ask you, it's just noon. Where are you at this time?" Then she asked, "But today, why do you always come to the kitchen?" With the students' fake speeches again and again, it seems that it is no longer the eight children who are far away in Xiangxi, but the students in the classroom. We say that the authentic Chinese flavor is the Chinese flavor with the subjective experience.
Activate the subject emotion. To understand that Baer's eyes are red, students must be red-eyed. Therefore, Qiu Juncai will have such a teaching design-"When do you usually get red-eyed?" Emotional experience can not be separated from specific situations. Although the specific situations recalled by students are different, it doesn't matter, but the emotions that students experience are the same. Empathy, to mind * * *. The taste of "red eyes" lies in the students' inner emotional experience. That's why we say that the Chinese flavor that incorporates the subject's emotions is the pure Chinese flavor.
Activate the subjective imagination. How Baer eats Laba porridge is blank in Shen Congwen's book, which is also the greatest writing secret of the whole paper-gaining momentum. But Qiu Jun's teaching does the opposite-"He doesn't write, we write! Look at this picture carefully, grasp a detail, and write about eight children eating laba porridge. "
Once students' imagination is activated, the energy of their speech creation can not be underestimated or underestimated. Sure enough, the two small exercises presented are equally vivid and vivid. The reason why such high-grade composition fragments can be written is not because they are integrated into the subject's own verbal imagination and convey the subject's own verbal wisdom? In a word, only the Chinese flavor that is integrated with the subject's imagination is delicious.
Activate subjective thinking. At the end of the class, not only the sublimation of image was realized, but also the sublimation of thinking was achieved. Qiu Jun leads the students to think further: Besides the characters, what else have you read? Listen to the students' wonderful feelings:
Health 1: I think the author is writing about Baer, in fact, he is also writing about himself. Baer in the article is carefree, greedy and naughty, so I think he writes about the author's yearning and longing for his hometown.
Health 2: I learned a lot of Shen Congwen's hometown dialect from this text, which shows that he misses his hometown accent and wants to bring it to the people of the whole country.
Health 3: Here I can also see that Laba porridge not only makes people of all ages like it very much, but also can be seen between the lines that Laba porridge has brought great impression to the author and made him miss it very much.
Perhaps the students' expression is still immature, and perhaps the students' thoughts are not deep enough, but this is irrelevant. What is important is that they are thinking. Thinking, blending language with life; Thinking, integrating mind and words. And this is the most authentic and beautiful Chinese flavor.
It's time for the Chinese flavor to go back to its original source and nature.
I am not a philosopher, but I am forced to seek the truth of Chinese education.
Forcing me to keep looking for a new basic point of Chinese philosophy. "Host and guest ニ yuan
The "Chinese flavor" from the perspective of "opposition view" must turn to the "Chinese flavor" from the perspective of "the unity of subject and object". Chinese and life are an integral whole, and the ontology of the world is the soul, not to mention Chinese.
What is the taste other than the taste? It's the mind!
If you want to cook porridge, you should taste it.
On May 9th, in the observation of Chinese classroom teaching in provincial primary schools and the selection of excellent courses, a beautiful woman in cheongsam, slim figure and elegant temperament talked with students about Mr. Shen Congwen's novel Laba Porridge. She is easy and calm, grasping the language features of Mr. Shen's articles tightly, leading students to read and taste repeatedly, singing and sighing, clever the students on the stage and making the audience happy.
She is the teacher Qiu Jun of Changzhou Boai Primary School, and all the listeners are impressed by Qiu's ingenious classroom design.
Sun Shuangjin, a famous special-grade teacher in China, said: "A good teacher should have the temperament of an actor and the talent of a director.". Miss Qiu has more than enough. Her language literacy, cultural literacy, classroom temperament and personal talent have reached the first point. Her control over the design of the text and the classroom has reached the second point.
The article Laba Porridge is plain and simple in language, concise and fluent, and the dialogue between characters is very personal and full of life flavor. After asking the students to read through the whole text and sort out the context of the article, Teacher Qiu asked, "What scenes were written in the text?" Combined with the students' answers, it can be summarized into three scenes: looking forward to porridge, watching porridge and eating porridge. This lesson focuses on reading the first two parts.
Learn the part of "Looking forward to porridge", with "What kind of eight children do you see" as the central question, guide students to analyze the text and learn the author's meticulous writing methods. The students think that Baer is an eager, anxious, greedy and greedy child. When discussing where we can see Baer's impatience, we should grasp the word "going in and out" and compare it with the common words in students' lives. It is found that "going in and out" focuses on "going out" and "going in and out" focuses on "entering", and the foothold is different. The writer uses one action to write whether Baer keeps going to the kitchen to see porridge, so that he can
When I heard my mother say that I couldn't eat porridge until night, it showed that "Baer's eyes were red with anxiety after listening to this kind of relaxation." Realizing the author's anxiety through one look. When learning this sentence, the teacher told the students that the word "Songjin" is the dialect of Shen Congwen's hometown, and then asked the students to find out similar dialects from the text, such as "Bai Hu Hu Hu", "Bowl lamp", "On the lamp", "Peanut kernel flour" and "Red rice beans are harmful to water and swell" and read them. Fluent spoken Xiangxi dialect makes the characters' language lively and natural, and their personalities are distinct.
When discussing the characteristics of Baer's "gluttony and greed", we should firmly grasp the dialogue between two characters to taste.
"Mom, mom, when will it be ..." "It will be at night!
"Then I'm hungry!"
"If you are hungry, you have to eat when the sun goes down."
Arrange the teachers and students to read in roles twice, and read for the first time, which solves the usage of ellipsis: because Baer asked many times, his mother interrupted him directly; On the second reading, the teacher deliberately left out a word "Ma" and a word "Na". After discussion, the students thought that these two words could not be less, and without them, they could not reflect Baer's anxious appearance. Reading aloud in depth every time makes students naturally realize that a dialogue, a word difference, vividly describes the cute appearance of Baer playing tricks on others, which is the charm of Shen Congwen's language.
"Mom, mom, wait a minute I want to eat three bowls! We only allow eldest brother to eat one bowl. Eldest brother and dad can't eat sweet food, so we can just eat sweet food ..................... Mom, I will eat three bowls if you eat three bowls, and eldest brother and dad are only allowed to eat one bowl each. One * * * eight bowls, right? "
"Yes! Baer is right. "
"Otherwise, I'll eat three and a half bowls, and you'll eat two and a half bowls ................"
Grasp the ellipsis and ask two students to imagine that the characters will say.
Repeat the dialogue in different roles. "Otherwise, I will eat four bowls and you will eat two bowls." "Baer is right." "Otherwise I eat five bowls.
Half, you just eat half a bowl. ""Baer is right. "
The teacher said, "Do you still let him eat? The belly is almost bursting! " Let the students feel the simplicity and vividness of Mr. Shen's words in laughter, and make the characters jump from the paper.
In the teaching "watching porridge" part, we will grasp five sighs to taste.
"Let it boil like a sigh in the pot ............."
"Just look at its sigh ..........................................................................................."
"See that big pot of porridge that is sighing ................."
"Voiceless sigh continues ..............."
"I heard something sighing in that pot ..................."
After finding these five "sighs", the teacher throws a question.
Title: "If a language appears only once, it may be accidental, but it will have its meaning if it appears repeatedly." Why does the author write like this? " After discussion, the students understand.
The slower you cook, the more anxious Baer is. Writing a slow posture book of porridge
It's to foil Baer's anxiety. The author's seemingly repetitive language
Words, in fact, have a deep meaning, which is the contrast in this way.
In the middle school, Baer's impatience and naivety are vividly on the paper.
Taste here, not only the children admire Mr. Shen Congwen's writing very much, but also our teachers who attend classes are deeply inspired. Shen Congwen claimed to be a countryman all his life, and he has the reputation of "the father of local literature in China". His writing seems trivial, even a little rambling, but it is such nagging that it fits the true nature of life, full of earthly fireworks, and there is a strong local flavor and life flavor between the lines. And such writing, people who don't have a certain sense and literary taste, often can't see its goodness. Teacher Qiu's subtlety makes the listener suddenly enlightened.
Mr. Qiu writes freely in class, comments on students accurately, grasps the rhythm of the class with ease, takes students as the main body everywhere, and leads students to wander around the text, which has achieved very good teaching results. This is not a day's work. A teacher's teaching skills can't be improved overnight. He should be able to withstand loneliness, sit on the bench, read a slightly boring educational masterpiece, and withstand the blow and tempering after failure. Just like Laba porridge, you have to stew it slowly, not in a hurry, can you cook it? Miannuo
I think this class of teacher Qiu will make students love Mr. Wang's writing and read his books from now on.
10 is the 30th anniversary of the death of Mr. Shen Congwen. a surname
Teacher Jun's teaching of Laba Porridge was a great success.
People * * * appreciate beautiful writing, which is a tribute and memory of Mr.
