Self-confidence plays a cornerstone role in a person's life development, whether intellectually or physically, or in handling things. A person who lacks self-confidence lacks initiative in the development of various abilities, and initiative plays a decisive role in stimulating people's various senses and functions and their comprehensive abilities. A confident person is more likely to succeed than an unconfident person, because a confident person will forge ahead towards a set goal, while an unconfident person will be worried, anxious and afraid of failure, and eventually achieve nothing. Parents and teachers in China are very stingy, and it is unfair that children are unwilling to encourage even a little progress. There are China's ancient ideas at work, and there are also factors that are afraid of children's pride. This needs adults to change.
Second, through practical experience, cultivate children's good perception ability.
Art activity is a complex activity, which needs the coordination of eyes, hands, brain and other organs. It plays a positive role in cultivating people's goodwill, rich imagination, keen observation, comprehensive analysis ability and comprehensive observation ability. By participating in activities, children's interest in art is improved, and their creativity, innovative spirit, practical ability and good psychological quality are cultivated.
Perception is the most basic aspect of psychological quality. How to make children develop the good habit of perceiving things accurately, comprehensively, concretely, objectively and realistically? In art activities, sketch teaching is an effective way to cultivate children's careful and good observation habits. Children's sketch mainly shows things according to their own feelings through observation. The differences in painting with different learning attitudes are obvious. Different children get different results when they practice memory painting with the theme of "cars on the road". One is that they usually don't pay enough attention to life, do things carelessly, and their observation is not profound. In this way, the car they show is just a big outline, while the other one is meticulous in observation and has the habit of doing things seriously, which is very different from the former. In addition to vividly showing the outline of the car, the driver is added to the front of the car, and the seats are full of passengers. The passengers have different expressions, some say hello forward and some lean back. For example, in teaching, elaborate descriptions are arranged and textured objects are carefully drawn, so that students can develop a serious and rigorous work attitude, from which they can develop a good habit of paying attention to life and being good at insight into things around them.
Third, seize the effective opportunity to cultivate children's cheerful personality.
Nowadays, the family model of the only child and the living environment behind closed doors make many children introverted and not good at expressing themselves. Many parents are puzzled why their children are so devoted to painting that they are not tired of painting for a long time. In fact, this is the need for children's interest and emotional venting. Teachers can take advantage of this feature and pay attention to communicating their works with children after each art activity. Children often talk about their works and will compete to speak. Niu Niu is a very silent child. When I started talking to her, it was good to answer one sentence out of ten, but she was very interested in art activities and painted beautifully. So every time she paints, the teacher will find opportunities to communicate with her alone, encourage and inspire her in time, guide her to express her thoughts, and call her up to talk about her works when evaluating her works. At first, Niu Niu was a little shy, but also a little proud. Now, Niu Niu gets along well with the children around her, and her personality is much more cheerful. It is precisely because of the equal dialogue between teachers and students that children have the opportunity to fully express their wishes and their psychology can develop healthily.
Fourth, encourage bold imagination and performance, and give full play to children's potential.
In artistic creation activities, we adults are often used to expressing things according to their development laws and their own characteristics. For example, we must paint the sky blue and the sun red. Our thinking has always been confined to the big box of the characteristics of things themselves, but children are naive, they are full of interest and curiosity about everything around them, and their imagination is very rich and strange. In children's works, everything such as the sky, the sun, flowers and plants has life and thoughts. For example, children can draw small fish into the sky on the grounds that small fish want to see what the sky looks like; You can paint the sun green, because Grandpa Sun is dressed in green. The child has a strange imagination and active thinking. We adults should not only limit children's whimsy divorced from real life, but also encourage children to boldly imagine and express in activities, fully explore their potential, stimulate their creative interest, cultivate their self-confidence and make them grow up healthily. The practice of restricting children's thinking with adult thinking mode in activities can only stifle children's imagination, expressiveness and creativity, and curb the cultivation of children's self-confidence.
Fifth, attach importance to artistic guidance and give full play to children's subjectivity.
Painting is an artistic activity to cultivate children's imagination, creativity and aesthetic ability. It is through various forms of activities that children can feel and express beauty. Using the method of leading in front and following behind in painting activities can give full play to children's initiative, so that they can continue to discover in the process of exploration and explore in the process of guidance.
"Leading ahead" means that teachers should find ways to arouse children's interest and stimulate their creative desire at the beginning of the activity, such as blowing wintersweet. I first let my children appreciate the wintersweet painted with watercolor pens, oil paintings and pigments, and tell them that one of them was blown out by a few drops of colored water. Please look for it yourself. Children are very interested in blowing pictures right away.
