We, me and the children in our class, recalling the relationship with "Daily Recitation" can be traced back to three years ago, those fragments of words recorded little by little, picking up the memories again, as if it were yesterday, a different kind of joy.

Looking back over the past month, the most touching thing is not the famous teacher of the teacher's college to teach the real scripture, not a different kind of beauty can be picked, or that time to listen to see the cloud to talk about chanting (although only half a day), listen to Mr. Xiaoan's chanting class in the pool of small teachers, listen to Ms. Xiaoyan to talk about the "day to day chanting", listen to the seed teacher's sharing, hear the emotional part of the tears can not be stopped. I still get emotional when I think about it. Well, I admit, I have a language complex, have an ancient poetry complex.

? Not long ago, I received a notice from the school that I was going to be asked to introduce the whole school to the "Daily Recitation" in the third day of the school-based training , and I gladly agreed to do so. Because, finally, I can contribute to the "daily recitation".
Introduced from nursery rhymes, sharing a few children's songs of different ages, we read them together, while reading and remembering childhood, will the heart also become soft? Then show representative children's songs and nursery rhymes in "Daily Recitation" and continue to read them to arouse ****. Tell the group, what should we leave for our children's childhood? The Daily Recitations can do that. Then, tell us about the content of "Daily Recitation", not only children's songs and nursery rhymes, but also children's poetry, modern poetry, ancient poems, morning reading rhymes, as well as the enlightenment of Chinese culture, all are classics, and according to the children's age characteristics of the easy to difficult from the shallow to the depth of the first level of a book in a step-by-step manner, the arrangement of a particularly scientific. Finally, how to lead the children to read, I do not know how to say this is good?

? This afternoon, by the direction of Xiangfeng sister , opened the Overseas Education Fund Forum, saw the "Day to Day" toolkit, but also saw a lot of Liu Qian teacher's posts, to see the article about this time to Luanchuan, a piece of remember so detailed, but also to see the seed teacher's sharing, looking at the watch unconsciously is two hours, truly admired and touched by. Strength to find strength, to be able to meet with you this group of people, how fortunate! Previously did not do, the future will certainly not, from the "daily recitation" to start!
? My children, please forgive the teacher's previous impatience , later, the teacher will let you know, our mother tongue is how beautiful and interesting! Look at the clouds said, will be monotonous to the end, Ms. Xiaoyan said, the vegetarian pole and Hua, indeed, the language class should not be jingling Christmas tree. I, it's time to get lost and try to make plain, natural and clean language lessons ......

The Daily Recitations book isn't back yet, but I can't wait. If I can't, I'll just use the chalkboard in the back of the classroom and copy a unit of it first. Or, is it better to let the children know that there is such a set of books first, to attract their attention? What is certain is that the beginning, will definitely start, because, there is a force in it.

The network meeting has just ended, but the thoughts have not calmed down. The first time I attended, I already felt so strong "field", there are so many teachers are thinking and practicing, and I really do too little. What's more, I didn't expect to be named by Ms. Xiaoyan to speak, not at all prepared to speak, I don't know what to say, so bad. After listening to Mr. Bai, Mr. Liang, Mr. Jiang, and reflecting on it, I really practiced too little, so my thoughts are not too clear. It seems that the light turned over the day to recite the toolkit, have seen through the video is still far from enough ah.
Now, when I think back to what I taught the teachers over the summer, it was really shallow. When I taught the teachers, I focused on the lower grades, the middle grades simply mentioned The Collection of Birds and The Sand and the Foam, and the upper grades chose their favorite book, The Book to Zhu Yuan Si. When I looked at it this way, I really only considered my own one-sided preferences, and I didn't think that deeply about the interpretation of the content, the demonstration of the teaching method, and the understanding of the meaning of the poem. Fortunately, at the meeting, a teacher pointed out that different grade levels have different recitation tasks, and as a teacher, I not only need to have my own understanding of the text, but also need to pay attention to the children's actuality and the editor's intention, or else I would have been off the mark, thanks to the honorable and lovely teachers!

Looking back on 2014, I found something I love to do and am willing to work hard for - children's reading. From the smooth running of The Day's Recitation to the little bits and pieces of bardic paving, I found it really quite rewarding to actually do it. At the very least, the children have become better listeners than before, they can slowly settle down, and they are very interested in learning how to chant after they first learn about pinyin. In the coming year, we should continue to make efforts to record more. Private thought, a long life, since the teacher can not be changed, then do a still worth not sloppy teacher it, close to the mother tongue, quiet moist, and for this effort, go!

? Cicadas
(Taiwan, China) Lin Huan-chang
Cicadas have a beautiful song,
but they don't sing it until summer;
they like to praise
the golden sunshine.
Cicadas sing beautifully,
but they love to sing only in the trees;
so, in summer,
the trees become
singing umbrellas.
? After reading together, I asked the children, every summer, what do you feel when you hear the cicadas chirping all over the trees? Sun Zhiyuan said, I feel so annoying, so hard to hear. The rest of the children nodded their heads in agreement.
So after reading the poem, do you still think so?
Cicadas screaming and screaming turned out to be - praising the golden sunshine. (
Cicadas sang, sang, sang, sang, sang, sang, sang, sang, sang, sang, sang, sang, sang, sang, sang, sang. (Students rush to say)
? You see, we used to know that there are comparisons of trees to umbrellas, but this is the first time we see trees compared to singing umbrellas, isn't it interesting? Who is responsible for this? (Cicadas) Will you still feel annoyed when you hear cicadas singing in the future? (
Because - it is singing for the summer.
Because - it is praising the golden sunshine.
? Children, this is called poetic and romantic , and we have to thank Grandpa Lin Huan-chang because he made us feel this poetic and romantic. If we have a romantic heart and a pair of poetic eyes, we will realize that life is so beautiful!

Selections from Sand and Foam:
? Only yesterday, I thought of myself as a mere fragment, quivering rhythmlessly in the firmament of life.
Now I know that I am the firmament, and that all life is a fragment that turns rhythmically in me.
1, read together. The key words are: the dome of the sky. 2. Did you notice a change in the poem? Yesterday I thought I was a shard, today? (
Can it be put this way: the wave said, only yesterday, I thought I was just a wave, jumping rhythmically in the sea of life, and now I know that I am the sea, and all life is a wave jumping rhythmically in me.
Who will try to say it too?
The grass said - I just finished prompting, Li Zesheng raised his hand high: the grass said, just yesterday, I thought I was just a small grass ...... Now I know that I am the earth ......
Next, under my inspiration, there are (white clouds - the sky, little me - the world)
Summary: So ah, even if it is a small fragment, a small wave, a small grass, a small me, have belonged to the their own big - world.)
? Reflection: In the past, when I asked a question that required a bit of thought, only a few top-notch children answered, and the answers were repetitive and poorly worded. Now, more and more people dare to answer, a different word pops up, like a flickering spark, shining brightly in the heart. When I was talking about "Sand and Foam", I didn't understand it at first glance, and I didn't know how to convey it when I realized it. Then I thought of what Ms. Xiaoyan said during the summer vacation, that we should link with life and turn the abstract into the concrete, so we turned the abstract "fragments and the dome" into the concrete "waves and the sea", "grass and the earth
.

? The Absolute Sentence
Every tree
is a line of an absolute sentence that grows
The birds hopping from branch to branch
are punctuation that keeps moving
Teacher: can you say one of these sentences as well? Every flower, every cloud? After a great deal of silence, Li Zesheng raised his hand, always brave enough to show up at the most problematic times, "Every wave is a line of a topical sentence that pulses." I took the opportunity to ask, "If waves are stanzas, what is punctuation?" "Seagulls, and flying fish, and dolphins!" We finished a poem, led by Li Zesheng, and read it together.
Each wave
is a line of a topical line that jumps
The dolphins jumping between the waves
are the punctuation that keeps moving.
It can also be said that:
Every blade of grass (flower),
is a line that grows
Butterflies (dragonflies, bees) resting on the leaflets,
are constantly moving punctuation.

? After more than a week of preparation until the end of school this afternoon, our book club finally came to a successful conclusion. An hour passed without realizing it, amidst the loud reading of friends big and small. From a poem recited on a daily basis, to a wonderful passage excerpted from a whole book, to the children's own imitation works, they read in unison, with a tight rhythm, and finally ended in chanting. The children's wonderful performance was unexpected, and the parents and friends also cooperated with each other very well, from the beginning of the timid to become more and more liberal, collective commitment, the power of the collection, really is a very gathering of energy "big magnetic field". Now I have mixed feelings, apprehension, pride, gratitude, excitement, touching ...... just want to say thank you for the support and companionship, so that we can grow together, harvest together, cheer together, and continue to move forward together in anticipation. Hopefully, the next reading, the leader is not just a child, there are also moms and dads holding hands.

Selections from Sand and Foam
When a man is intoxicated by an illusion, he takes the vague flavors of that illusion for real wine.
What comes to mind after reading this?
Gao Chenxi said, "When I read the poem "New Year", I thought of that image when I read "milk coming out of a spring", as if I saw a spring gurgling hot milk out of it, and then I was intoxicated. Everyone laughed when she finished. Isn't Gao Chenxi's understanding the best explanation of the poem?

For the general lecture, it is now not a problem. This is thanks to summer sharpening. The concepts of "getting to the point, staying on point, and linking to the child's life" are firmly engraved in my head and are becoming clearer every day, so even when I speak the language lesson, I am much more efficient. The second is that the second is the one with the most important and the most important is the one with the most important and the most important is the one with the most important and the most important.
In the lecture "I heard Wang Changling's left move to Longbiao and have this message", I read "I send my sorrows to the bright moon, with the wind until the west of the night Lang." Naturally, a question immediately popped up in his mind: "What is it that Li Bai sent?" "A concern, a thought, a trace of reluctance, a little worry, a comfort ......" The children's diverse answers surprised me.

Read the poem read for a long time, the children's "poetic" is also gradually "budding", after the "I and the birds and bells", Zhang Zhuo Lin took the initiative to imitate the writing of a "I and the owls and elephants", I was excited to rush to the class! I was so excited that I read it to the class and praised him as the "first little poet" in our class. Driven by him, more and more children were eager to try, so naturally, this week's composition class became a special session for imitating poems. I and the piano and the clouds, I and the chameleon and the stereo, I and the eagle and the fan, I and the rooster and the sun, I and the giraffe and the piano, and a small poem written in a decent manner, can not be underestimated these children.
? Inadvertently found Feng Yilin has a small book, baby general, open a look, page after page are small poems, wrote a dozen. I would like to take one of these poems and share it with you, "A little chicken, a little chicken, a little chicken, a little chicken, a little chicken, a little chicken, a little chicken, a little chicken, a little chicken, a little chicken. Wearing a fluffy coat, loves to eat bugs and rice." How childlike, and how is this not a "poet"? Driven by her, more and more children consciously write poems. In our class reading meeting, nearly twenty little poets read their works on the stage! If it wasn't for the "Daily Recitation", how could we have reaped such a surprise?

? Today, our last recitation lesson of the semester, the children and I read the last two units together; this semester there has been a greater focus on the quality of the readings, plus there has been a reluctance to let go of the poems, so the children read with particular dedication and feeling. Next I asked the children, which is your favorite piece in the next volume? The children raised their hands with different answers, talking about the previous volume and even recalling poems from third grade. Unconsciously, "Daily Recitation" has been with us for two years, and we can still memorize the first song "What It Takes", remember "Me and the Bird and the Bell", "The Bench is Crooked", "The Collection of Birds" and "Sand and Foam" with lines that may not have been very comprehensible at the time, but which come back to us especially easily later on. For example, "A bird would like to be a cloud, a cloud would like to be a bird." "Memory is a form of meeting."" and so on. Most of the children could recite the poems, and it was so natural for them to do so every morning, as if it was the way it was supposed to be. In the last five minutes, I said, let's leave something behind for our Daily Recitation. So the children wrote their reading stickers, and as I watched them quietly write, I wandered in and quietly admired them, and a wave of emotion surged through my heart. We, and the "daily recitation" of the fate of the bond so knotted, really good!

? Tomorrow, it's time for finals, and at the moment, I'm surprisingly calm. Right now, my mind is not thinking about tomorrow's exam, but about a scene from the past two years. The first hand-copied blackboard poetry, the first recitation, the first class book club, the first reading exchange, and our classroom behind the "reading wall", our seasonal lessons, our Dragon Boat Festival, and the first time to participate in the devilish summer grinding class, the first time to see the clouds close contact, the first time to Nanjing to participate in the reading forum, traditional culture forum, and our first time to participate in the reading forum! The first time I went to Nanjing to participate in the Reading Forum, the Traditional Culture Forum, and the reading posters written by our parents and children together, I accompanied the children to write the "next water text" ...... It seems that, without realizing it, I am paying more attention to the sense of "accompanying". I memorize the passages that the children are asked to memorize, I memorize them myself, I take the mock exams with the children, I write the essays with them, and I write the essays with them. Of course, when they read "The Daily Recitation", I also read it with them. Very much like this feeling, as if our relationship is not teacher-student, but comrades in arms, partners, shoulder to shoulder towards the front ......
Know what two verses come to mind right now?
"O grass, your footsteps are small, but what you have is the ground beneath your feet."
"Unseen but there, something unseen."
Good night, my semester, my children, my Daily Recitation, tomorrow must be a good start, right?

? Before I knew it, a year had passed and the kids in my class and I began a temporary separation because, well, I became a mom. This year Squid wrote less for long vacations and health reasons, but The Daily Recitation never stopped. I remember that we recited "Tao Yao", "Reeds", "Short Songs", "Nineteen Ancient Poems", recited Pushkin's "If Life Deceives You" with passion, savored the "elegance" of "Yasha" and "fun" of "Hundred Grass Gardens", and experienced the "fun" of Tagore's prose poems in our recitations. Rabindranath Tagore's prose poems in the "love"...... that a vivid scene and the sound of reading in my mind more and more clear, as if we have not been separated for a long time.
Now in the vacation "daily recitation" still accompanies me. Every morning, I would read "Morning Rhyme" to my daughter, who is less than two months old, and recorded it in Himalaya for her to listen to, and it seemed that she quieted down while listening to it. "One, two, three, climb up the mountain, four, five, six, tumble, seven, eight, nine, shoot the ball" "You eat melon, what melon? Round bulging, watermelon ......" read when her oily eyes staring at me, as if listening to the general, but also from time to time pull the corners of the mouth squinting eyes smile. When she dozed off, I sang her "lullaby", but also recited "Silent Night Thoughts", "Spring Dawn", "On the Pond", "Wind" and "Chang Ge Xing" to her, listening to it, she really fell asleep. I'm not sure if this is considered early childhood education and if it's effective, but I just love the rhythm of the Morning Reading Rhymes, the fun of the rhymes, and the beauty of the chanting. I just want to read these beautiful things to her, even if I don't understand, even if I only leave a shallow trace, it's worth it. Look, the "daily recitation" so a little rooted in my life, she accompanied us, from the classroom accompanied to the home, from the eyes to the heart, from the spring and fall to the winter and summer, like a class of seeds sprouted and blossomed.
