Children's dance teaching methods Part 1
Dance training as a quality education, has long been favored by parents and children. How to teach dance scientifically and effectively, so that children's dance classroom colorful, so that children love to dance, active learning dance, not only to achieve the improvement of their overall quality, but also to achieve the purpose of training? The author combined with many years of dance teaching practice, put forward the following suggestions, I hope to help the majority of colleagues.
First, the design of the teaching situation, stimulate students' interest in learning
China's famous ancient educationist Confucius once said: "Those who know better than those who are good, those who are good than those who are happy." Interest is the best teacher, when students are interested in a subject, they will actively learn. Dance training for children is characterized by a combination of learning and playing. Therefore, teachers in dance teaching can be based on the dance content to design the appropriate situation to stimulate students' interest in learning. Children and teenagers are young, easy to accept those who are connected with the real world and those who are connected with their own experience of emotions, not easy to accept those single, abstract movements. Children like to play, the teacher can according to the children's nature, in the teaching of the game can be used as a teaching method, let the children in the game to play their own understanding, like the role in the plot of the dance, they can find their own feelings, understanding of the attachment point, and be happy to accept this kind of dance. For example, when teaching the Miao dance, you can describe a vivid picture, in this clear blue sky, under the blue sky, in the vast, scenic Guizhou Plateau, the Miao people ushered in the most important annual festival, the Miao people dressed in traditional festival dress in the paddy fields performed a unique Miao water drum dance, dance unrestrained, the villagers kneeling in the paddy fields, praying, barefoot and wildly dance. The villagers prayed on their knees and danced wildly with their bare feet in the paddy field. On the ridge of the field, the Miao women in full costume sang loudly, and the sound of water, drums and songs were intertwined with each other in a moment, and the whole scene was shocking. By designing such interesting situations, it can mobilize children's interest in learning and keep their attention for a longer period of time, which has a great effect on teachers' dance teaching.
Two, a reasonable choice of teaching content
In the choice of teaching content should be careful, should choose those lively, lively, interesting subjects, as far as possible to avoid adult. In the choreography of dance movements, teachers should take the age of children, psychological characteristics as a starting point to perceive the characteristics of the action, choreography children love, happy to accept the action, such as, flying in the sky: light birds, soaring eagles; running on the ground: lively horse, witty deer; swimming in the water: crawling turtles, shuttling small fish and so on.
Three, pay attention to the combination of learning and stage practice
In order to stimulate the children's enthusiasm for learning dance, the school can set up a children's art troupe to participate in the local television station, the local government to organize a variety of performances, which, on the one hand, can improve the visibility of the school and the art troupe, on the other hand, increase the student's interest in learning dance. The formation of a virtuous cycle, so that students realize that only practice the basic skills to rehearse the program, the program is good in order to be welcomed by the audience, in order to have more performance opportunities, in order to perform well must learn more practice more rehearsals.
Four, emphasize the first, stimulate the children's dance creative potential
Dance learning is a very difficult process, in the process of learning to dance can be choreographed to make a difference in the movement is even more difficult. If a child through the painstaking design of the movement, was imitated by other people to go, but they do not get the due recognition and praise, he will have a sense of loss, over time, naturally, not willing to open the brain to design a new movement. Therefore, in teaching, teachers should recognize and praise the children's first action, so that the children can experience the joy of success, forming a virtuous cycle, and promote the children's continuous innovation, and at the same time, it can also enrich the imagination of the other children, so that each child will have the desire to create a different action. In teaching, the form of creation should be from easy to difficult, first take individual free creation, and then free group creation form. Teachers should not only guide students to create in teaching, but also try to create opportunities for children to create in daily life and in program rehearsals. In such a relaxed, comfortable environment, children can be free of constraints, can be more independent and free to create.
Fifth, the scientific training of basic skills and techniques
In the children's dance teaching, teachers must adopt a scientific and systematic method to train students. For example, the flexibility training of the joints, a variety of foot position of a single training has its own science, teachers can not train children in accordance with the training of professional actors, according to the children`s `characteristics of the appropriate method to stimulate the children`s learning enthusiasm. Dance is the art of time and space, but also really have a lot of can only be understood and can not be conveyed in words of the delicate flavor, the teacher will be used to standardize the action demonstration, combined with the exquisite language of the lecture, the combination of knowledge and fun, self-editing some of the training of flexibility, strength, speed, agility, endurance, etc., with the ups and downs, the mood of the track accompaniment, rendering the atmosphere, so that the students can fully feel the learning of the form of movement of the "vocabulary". "The first time I saw this, I was able to see that the whole thing was a bit of a joke, and I was able to see the whole thing as a joke.
In summary, the dance teaching of children is intuitive, concrete, image. In teaching, teachers should adopt appropriate teaching methods according to the characteristics of children, so that children can experience the infinite charm of dance, let them fall in love with dance, happy to learn dance, and ultimately achieve the purpose of improving the overall quality of children. It requires teachers to explain to children the content, essentials and practices of the movements they learn with accurate, vivid and infectious demonstrations to inspire children to think positively and arouse their interest in learning. Accurate demonstration can enable children to build up accurate movement representations and combine intuition with thinking. Dance demonstration should be carried out according to the age of the children and the degree of mastery of the movement, and a complete demonstration, repeated demonstration, part of the difficult demonstration and other methods are used. In the demonstration, in order to help the children grasp the basic rules of movement, add some explanations as appropriate, and the explanations must be concise and graphic. Dance demonstrations should be differentiated, with more demonstrations for small children, and fewer demonstrations for intermediate or large children, and for movements that are more familiar to the children. The teacher must grasp the relationship between the explanation and the demonstration is a complementary teaching method, the teacher must grasp the relationship between them, the language should be vivid image, as far as possible not to say that the children can not understand the terminology, the demonstration of action must be beautiful, accurate, especially for the continuous change of the direction, the route of the dance, the teacher must patiently explain, repeated demonstration, until the children mastered it.
The practice method
The practice is the basic method for young children to personally dance, it is the basic way for young children to learn the dance, remember the dance, consolidate the dance. The practice method is based on the dance requirements, purposeful repeated practice. There are three kinds of practice methods: the first one is to individualize a certain - difficult movements of repeated practice, correct the children's incorrect practice, so that the dance is more perfect; the second is to the whole dance from beginning to end of the rehearsal, which can make the children to produce a performance of a complete dance of the sense of pleasure. The children in the whole dance rehearsal problems, teachers should give timely reminder, so that children quickly master the correct dance movements, so that the performance ability to be quickly improved; the third is to constantly change the combination of dance exercises, such as the first eight beats of the rhythm of the music to do four times the jumping action, skilled and then changed to do the same beat in the same 8 beat 8 times the dance action, or the first to take a handkerchief to practice the dance, then changed to take a fan or other props dance, make the dance more perfect; the second is the whole dance from beginning to end rehearsal, this can make children have a sense of pleasure to perform a complete dance. The first practice dance is with a handkerchief, and then with a fan or other props, so that children can gradually understand the complexity and difficulty of the dance as they continue to change their practice.
Three, the game method
The game method is an important learning method in the early childhood dance teaching, it is the teacher to use the game method to organize the children's dance practice method, which is the most favorite method of the children. Young children like to jump around, whenever they hear their familiar light music, they can not help but dance, which is determined by the nature of young children's easy to excitement, lively and active. When teachers use the game method to teach dance, they must first choose music that children are familiar with and love. Because familiar music can make children have many associations, teachers according to this, choreograph some game form of dance will certainly be welcomed by children. In addition, some simulation dances with simple plots and roles can be choreographed according to the game method, such as imitating the dance movements of butterflies flying, swallows foraging for food, and chickens catching worms, etc. The game method is easily accepted by the children. The game method is easy to be accepted by children, and this method can improve the efficiency of children learning dance.
Fourth, singing, dancing and reciting three combined practice method
Young children like to play while talking to themselves, like to use language to guide the action, to promote the thinking of the teacher can be based on the characteristics of young children, in the dance with the practice of adding in some of the words or singing, will help young children to learn the dance of interest. This kind of dance can be a fable, or anthropomorphized animal dance, or fairy tale, science fiction theme of the dance. This kind of dance is a storyline to the various movements of the string, in line with the curiosity of young children, good imitation, good fantasy characteristics, can cause young children to learn the dance of great interest, so that young children to maintain a high degree of enthusiasm to learn the dance.
Fifth, the decomposition method and decomposition of the combination method
Decomposition method is divided into several parts of a movement, according to each part of the link to teach the children one by one, and then linked to the whole. This method is conducive to a faster grasp of a part of the action. The decomposition and combination method is to teach the basic movements, difficult movements, or to break the dance into several segments to practice, when each basic movement or each segment of the dance practice proficiency, and then link them together into a whole dance. The decomposition and combination method is a way to simplify the teaching, it can help young children to master the dance movement as soon as possible, but, using this method with caution, because young children are strong imitators, the distribution of inhibition is weak, so it is easy to make young children's dance disjointed, fragmentation, affecting the continuity of the dance and quality.
