First, a pleasant emotional experience is the key for children to enter the picture book world.
Picture books, with pictures and texts, conform to children's cognitive laws and can help children understand the world more easily. When guiding children in large classes to read picture books, we can understand the psychological development and changes from the actions of characters, learn to summarize the theme and develop abstract logical thinking ability. In fact, every child is a genius at reading pictures. They use intuitive ways to mobilize people's most primitive sensory systems-seeing, listening, thinking and empathizing. A good picture book can make an illiterate child only look at pictures &; Uot reading &; uot； Give a rough idea.
For example, in our picture book reading activity "Fox Dad Duck Son", children are very interested when they see the lifelike appearance of the fox dad with duck eggs painted on the cover. Children have told: How can there be duck eggs on the fox's nose? There is a crack in the duck egg ... with the question, the children began to read completely. In the process of reading, some children can't help it&; Uot hahaha &; Uot smiled. It turned out that they saw the cute and funny appearance of the fox hatching eggs. I then asked:&; How does uot fox hatch its eggs? & UOT MengMeng said:&; Uot duck eggs are tied to the body. Look at its funny expression. & uot xiaoyi said:&; The uot fox put the egg in his mouth and looked really greedy ...&; Uot children have a happy expression in the process of reading and enjoy reading picture books.
A good picture book not only draws beautifully, but also makes readers visually happy with its composition and color. Moreover, each picture has rich connotations, which can present a unique narrative relationship and give people a warmth and touch that goes straight to the soul. In the process of reading picture books, children will have empathy, and the voice of emotion broadens their imagination and enriches their language expression ability. As the protagonist's mood changes, the children are either sad or happy, enriching their emotional experience. Only by letting children feel the joy of reading, children will be more actively involved in the next reading activities. Happy emotional experience is the key for children to open the door to reading picture books, which can urge children to enter reading activities more actively next time.
Second, a variety of reading methods to increase children's interest in picture book reading.
The layout of picture books is beautiful and unique, and the cover, title page, heel post and back cover form an almost perfect whole. Opening a big picture book, beautiful paper and beautiful pictures give children an aesthetic taste, and also make them have a strong interest. Reading picture books with big class children is not just a matter of reading a book. It depends on children's age characteristics and reading level, and uses some skills to carry out a variety of reading activities, so that children's reading interest can be more intense. Usually, I read in the following ways:
Method 1: Cover some pictures to stimulate children's imagination. The characters, animals and plots in the picture can be properly covered, which is convenient for children to mobilize their existing experience, imagine and think, and establish stories before and after. For example, when I read "Father Fox, Duck and Son" with my children, I used paper clips to separate the second half of the story, so that the children could guess the possible story or ending according to the previous story. Children can make bold guesses about the imagination of the story according to their own storytelling experience, which is very rich and interesting.
Method 2: Review the development process of reading and understanding stories. In the process of telling stories, we can also use the inversion strategy to help children combine the content before and after reading. Through repeated reading of key contents, children can clearly see the development process of the story and further understand the meaning of the story. For example, in the reading process of My Lucky Day, children need to read back to further understand the story and better understand that the fox did so much for the pig after being hungry all day, and finally fainted, and the ending of the story became a lucky day for the pig.
Method 3: Create paintings and new picture books according to the story content. Interesting picture books can make children never tire of reading them, and I hope they can become a member of the story. It is not difficult for children in large classes to create a picture book of their own according to the story mode and using the existing experience. It not only brings some challenges to children's reading comprehension, but also promotes the development and improvement of every child. For example, in the previous stage, my children and I read My Home is a Zoo, which introduced every member of Xiangtai's family with the characteristics of different animals in the zoo. The children are very interested and can't wait to introduce it after reading it&; Uot Our junior year is a zoo. Uot introduces your good friends according to the different characteristics of animals. At the same time, in the activity area, children also make books through drawing records and become their favorite books.
This activity makes me feel that interest is the best teacher, and children's interest in reading needs us to discover and explore with our heart. Different picture books need different reading methods, so that every child can participate in reading independently and enjoy the happiness brought by reading picture books.
Third, create a supportive reading environment for children to roam the world of picture books.
First, the preparation of books. It is very important for children in large classes to provide enough independent reading materials. The renewal of reading content and the change of reading form can also encourage children to have new reading interests. In the reading corner of our class, there are many kinds of books, and a bookshelf is specially set up for picture books, which are prepared by teachers for children and brought by children themselves. A series of picture books, such as Blue Ocean West, Wolf, Moore Manor, Mysterious Coat and Smile, are displayed on the bookshelf one by one, which are the objects that children scramble to read after class. Whether it is the corner activity in the morning or the waiting time before leaving the garden, the reading corner is always crowded, and the children who are always absorbed are always studying hard.
