As an important part of children's music education, Zhang Weijuan's children's dance in the second kindergarten of Hukou County, Jiujiang, Jiangxi Province is intuitive and lively, which is deeply loved by children and plays an important role in children's quality education. Practice has proved that a good dance work can not only edify children with beauty, but also subtly enlighten and educate children, and promote the improvement of children's physical quality, ideological and moral character, intellectual development and aesthetic education, thus achieving the effect of entertaining and entertaining. However, in the current children's dance education, due to the restriction of traditional dance teaching methods and the limitation of teachers' own understanding of dance, the cultivation of children's interest in dance was once ignored, and there are some problems: on the one hand, there are misunderstandings in understanding. Teachers don't know enough about children's psychological characteristics and laws in dance activities, and the goal orientation of kindergarten dance teaching is not accurate and complete enough. On the other hand, the teaching method is outdated and the teaching effect is not obvious. First of all, the teaching purpose is not clear enough. In daily children's dance teaching, teachers often only pay attention to let children simply imitate dance movements, with the main purpose of learning the teacher's "prescribed movements", while ignoring guiding children to understand the dance itself and the profound meaning behind it. Secondly, the lack of in-depth understanding of children's physical and mental characteristics, children often lack pleasant emotional experience and innovation in the teaching process. For example, some teachers excessively pursue the standardization and accuracy of practice movements in dance teaching, but ignore the children's emotional pleasure, which leads many children to get tired of learning new movements and repeating old ones. I have also encountered this situation in the teaching process. I remember that I just graduated from school and went to the county central kindergarten as a dance teacher. The day before school started, I was full of confidence and wanted to teach them this and that. At the end of the day, I was exhausted and hoarse, but the result was not satisfactory. I'm really hit. Why? Why is this happening? Later, through my efforts and constant changes in teaching methods, I finally got the recognition of teachers and the love of my classmates. Here, I will share my teaching experience accumulated in the front line of education in recent years. First, the proper selection of materials is the key to learning dance. If the materials are not selected properly, the expected effect will not be achieved. 1, the selected dance content should be suitable for children's psychological and physiological characteristics. Children dance must be a child, that is, a portrayal of children's nature. Don't let children dance bear the trace of an adult, but show the innocence, purity and loveliness of a child. 2. Students' physical quality and performance quality should be considered when selecting materials. Just as a singer chooses a song that suits him, it should be tailored according to his voice condition and style, neither too big nor too small. For example, the content you arrange or choose is beautiful and difficult, which is beyond the ability of children and can be self-defeating. 3. The selection of children's dance is also very different from children's dance. Children dance's selection should be lively and lovely, highlighting the innocence and childlike innocence of his movements and expressions; From the psychological and physiological point of view, children's material selection should have richer expression connotation and greater action expression skills, so simple "strokes" will not be cute, and it is not suitable for children's aesthetic needs at this stage. 4. In addition, in general, the selection of materials should be novel, with a sense of the times, innovative from genre to performance form, including the creation of dance vocabulary and movements, which must be unique and not adult and rigid. In the eyes of children, the world is very novel: flying in the sky, running on the ground, swimming in the water ... As long as you stand on the children's point of view, you can perceive the characteristics of things, analyze and deal with people and things, and finally show them intuitively, you will have the childlike interest of art. For example, the dance "Watching a Big Show in front of Grandma" begins with a nursery rhyme: "Pull the saw, pull the saw, sing a big show in front of Grandma ..." It tells the story of a group of innocent and lively girls who finally came to Grandma's door happily after "fighting" and sat in their respective positions looking forward to the opening of the big show. The drama began, and the rich expressions on the faces of the little girls when watching the drama reflected the excitement of the drama. Watching a play is a kind of folk entertainment. This kind of dance captures children's curiosity, excitement, participation and imitation, so it is easy to arouse children's interest. In addition, I think 3-year-old children in kindergarten should focus on rhythm, supplemented by simple dance steps, dance games and simple basic training. 4-year-old children can dance more, increase training, and combine dance games with sketches. And 5-year-old children can have ground training, pace combination and dance performance. Second, the demonstration should be vivid. Whether adults learn to dance or children learn to dance, the common teaching method is that students imitate teachers to demonstrate. So how can teachers demonstrate according to the characteristics of dance and children's physical and mental characteristics? It is particularly important to choose when to do the corresponding demonstration. 1. Demonstration is the most important means of teaching in children dance, which is determined by the characteristics of dance itself and children's physical and psychological level. Demonstration is the most convenient and effective way for students to obtain correct visual image and kinesthetic representation, which shows that demonstration is an important basis for cultivating motor skills. Teachers can infect students with their passionate dance demonstrations, stimulate their love for dance, cultivate their interest in learning dance, help them better understand dance works and express dance more perfectly. The "demonstration" is intuitive and vivid. 5-6-year-old children's life experience is relatively simple, and their understanding of things is only superficial, which is easy to be hinted. Their acquisition of dance movements and the formation of dance aesthetics mostly come from "demonstration". 2. Teachers should perform dance works accurately, vividly and expressively, so that children can have a complete and clear impression of what they want to learn. Arouse the desire to learn, practice will not feel boring, but also achieve better teaching purposes. The demonstration should be accompanied by language explanation and mirror demonstration for children. For example, a child should extend his left hand and a teacher should extend his right hand. This method can stimulate children's desire and enthusiasm for learning. Beginners will inevitably encounter the phenomenon of uncoordinated hands and feet when they first come into contact with a new action, and often there will be a short pause in the connection between the previous action and the latter action, which requires the teacher to partially decompose and demonstrate. Demonstration is the most important teaching method in children dance and one of the ways for children to master skills effectively. Through the teacher's accurate, vivid and vivid transformation of dance teaching materials into infectious demonstration performances, children can break down their movements into individual movements and practice them repeatedly and alternately, so as to achieve the effect that practice makes perfect. In addition, we need to pay attention to the transition link between each dance movement, and demonstrate it again where the movements are connected, so that students can understand the relationship between the movements and enhance the flexibility and appeal of the movements. The demonstration is accompanied by explanations to explain the methods and essentials of understanding movements, so that children can clearly understand the generation, direction, route and coordination of whole body movements. Explain vividly and easily. For example, turning the wrist, according to the action requirements, the first wrist turns from outside to inside, and the second wrist turns the palm from inside to outside. Children's study is uninterested and laborious. But if you tell your child that you have caught a big apple in the tree in the orchard now, you must turn your wrist and twist it if you want to pick it. Or when practicing standing, if you tell children to stand up straight, they may not stand well, then you tell them that they will do as well as sticks or pencils. Therefore, language interpretation is extremely important. Third, the language should be beautiful. Use language to create the artistic conception of music, let children spread their imagination wings and learn in games. Dance mainly expresses feelings through body language. In dance teaching, if students just follow the teacher blindly and communicate with students without language, students will not be able to understand where the norms and essentials of movements are and what the purpose of training is. In this way, high-level students can't be trained, and their learning enthusiasm can't be mobilized, so that the purpose of improving teaching quality can't be achieved. First of all, in dance teaching, students should not only enjoy beauty visually, but also touch their hearts audibly. Teachers should try to teach movements in standard Mandarin, with a calm tone, as smooth as melody and as beautiful as singing. It will attract students' attention like a magnet, thus deepening students' impression of the teaching content. Secondly, we should pay attention to the order of language expression. What you say first, then what you say, will make it easier for children to accept and will not confuse their thinking. For example, when children learn the "circular motion of the head", they must first master the accurate parts of the head, and then practice the circular motion of the head, so that they can master it well. If the teacher doesn't clear his mind when teaching, students will make mistakes when doing actions, and then correcting them will affect their enthusiasm for learning, but it will be counterproductive. Finally, the visualization of teachers' language can also make students learn skillfully, quickly and well, stimulate students' interest in learning, stimulate students' passion, urge students to complete their actions in excitement, and reduce the painful components in dance learning. Such as "alternating steps", compare the two feet to "good friends, I will go if you go, and be good friends forever"; When teaching to stretch your arms, use the metaphor of "young trees sprout", and so on. By stimulating their interest, they will feel happy and study actively. For example, when teaching the rhythm of "Horse Running" to the big class, I asked the children to play the roles of old horses and ponies, and created the artistic conception of "prairie" with vivid language: "On a beautiful prairie, an old horse is grazing on the grass with a group of ponies". Accompanied by cheerful music, I learned the tone of the old horse while doing movements, inspiring the "pony" to learn to run with me. Skilled and accurate movements, coupled with the teacher's infectious words, make children feel immersive, as if they were really a pony running on the grassland. In order to let children experience the change of movement range brought by speed, I guide children to imagine various situations. For example, running fast means there is an emergency, so they need to use all their strength and repeat their movements quickly. Some children are scrambling to tell what they saw in movies and TV. Natural imitation, pulling the reins quickly with your left hand, patting your hips with your right hand and staring at the front with your eyes wide open, are all immersive and natural; If the speed slows down, it means that the horse is tired and needs to rest while walking, and the movement range should be smaller. Combined with the change of music rhythm, children naturally improve their sensitivity to music and expressive force of dance with rich imagination. Children's understanding and feelings about things are not only reflected in the expressive force of actions, but also rich expressions are the windows of the soul. Therefore, I saw that there was no expression on the child's face, so I asked with great concern, "Pony, Pony, are you sick?" Why are you unhappy? "With such inspiration, children will naturally laugh. In the whole teaching, there is no essentials and skills of action, but through games and associations, children can feel interesting and beautiful, and improve the expressive force of dance in a state of blending scenes. Fourth, the forms should be diverse. Besides eating and sleeping, children's daily activities are mainly playing and games. Therefore, in children's dance teaching, we can't ignore the importance of games. Children can feel the wonderful combination of action and music in the game, find the feeling, rhythm and emotion, stimulate children's interest in learning dance, change boring training methods into relaxed, lively and gamified learning activities, such as teaching "platform steps", let teachers play the role of locomotive, let children play the role of car body, start together and sail to beautiful nature with the rhythm of music. This not only enriches children's imagination, but also trains their sense of rhythm, thus improving their learning enthusiasm. Such a variety of teaching forms can mobilize children's organs to express various actions and emotions, so that they can feel happy in dancing, and then achieve the effects of exercising, strengthening physique and cultivating temperament and character. Just like basic training courses, students can't last long, which not only affects the teaching quality, but also affects the teaching progress. If teachers can combine basic training with games at this time and imitate the animal's demeanor one by one, students' enthusiasm will be aroused and they will even be unwilling to leave class. Just like learning new movements, children will feel bored and tired if they only follow the beat on one, two, three and four. If the action is integrated into the game, children will have positive and happy emotions, thus improving their initiative to participate in dance training. Dance learning should also make children feel that this is a game activity and an entertainment. If you learn to walk like a duck, the teacher can play the role of mother duck, let the baby be a baby duck, let the baby duck learn skills from the mother duck, and wear headgear or clothes. There are also small steps that hens can practice with chickens. Jump stairs, mother rabbit practice with baby rabbit, etc. This method can arouse children's interest and improve their enthusiasm for learning. In addition, as a dance teacher, you should first make your children like you, and then the teacher should be energetic, kind and casual, and have a rich expression to infect your children and let them have a relaxed and happy class. Therefore, we should seize the opportunities in children's daily life, be good at capturing children's bright spots, and create a colorful and diverse children dance. In children's dance activities, we should pay more and more attention to children's physical and psychological characteristics, and rely more effectively on fun to mobilize children's enthusiasm and initiative to participate in dance activities, so that they can learn, be happy and be beautiful.
