Painting is an important part of aesthetic education and an important part of kindergarten education. Children like graffiti since childhood and regard graffiti as a free game activity. Draw whatever you want, and be free. Art activities are just in line with children's nature. It not only cultivates children's aesthetic ability and appreciation ability, but also embodies the essence of children. Through artistic activities, they can vividly express objective things and promote children's thinking and emotional development. Interest is very important in painting activities. Practice has proved that "interest is the best teacher". Only by letting children experience it personally can they feel the endless fun brought by artistic activities. Only in this way can children be interested in art activities, and only when children are interested can they have the desire to paint and improve their painting skills faster. However, how to tap children's potential interest in painting needs our teachers' continuous research and discovery. As a kindergarten teacher, how should we cultivate children's interest in painting?
First, create an artistic activity space to stimulate children's interest in painting.
Improving children's sensitivity to beauty is the premise to stimulate children's interest in painting. Children's interest in new things is often based on a very direct visual image. Therefore, create some environments for children to be immersive and let children participate more in activities. Teachers should first create an environment, not only to prepare the necessary materials for children, but also to create an atmosphere, environment and atmosphere for painting, so that children can start painting with interest. In particular, the decoration of the wall decoration and the layout of each area should pay attention to the image change of the idea, and the picture content is vivid, colorful, harmonious and childlike. For example, the scene in the cartoon "The Adventures of Little Carp" makes children feel like they are in the cartoon, which is realistic and enhances the interest of the whole activity. The art corner in the activity area should be used as a platform for children to write and draw. When children scribble everywhere with pens, it is better to simply stop them and prepare paint, paper and pens for them to daub. With this atmosphere, children can observe and appreciate beauty at any time, which can further enhance their interest in painting.
Second, use diversified teaching methods to stimulate children's interest in painting.
(A) from the combination of games and painting to cultivate children's interest in painting.
Plato in ancient Greece said: "If we turn compulsory and strict training into a way to make teenagers study hard and guide their interests, they will be full of energy and can't stop." Playing is a child's nature. They often say "play" and always say "play". We should make full use of this feature and let children learn the skills of art knowledge in entertainment and play. The contents and methods of education should be diversified, and some interesting games should be used in the process of watching, thinking, drawing, doing and playing. Picturesque "vase", the teacher holds a pocket with a vase hidden inside, so that children can touch it with their eyes closed and feel its shape and structure. Then children can design vases according to their own imagination to analyze the structural principle of vases and comment on the design scheme. This painting class ended easily. Let children draw in play, play in painting, find fun in playing with painting, greatly improve children's interest and stimulate their creative desire. These painting activities, from the purpose to the task, all carry games, which are very interesting to children and have a good teaching effect. Let children unconsciously and naturally accept painting skills in play.
(2) Pay attention to enriching children's life experience and arouse their enthusiasm for painting.
Fresh life experience can stimulate children's creative desire. Some children love to draw the same image and never change it. After a long time, it is easy to form some concepts or patterns, which will affect the improvement of painting level. For such children, we should first enrich our life experience, which is an important way to help children grow up in the art world. They have to take their children to climb mountains, swim and even eat and brush their teeth in their lives, which can be said to be the source of enriching their sense of painting. In order to draw vivid and emotional works, they not only broaden their horizons and increase their knowledge, but also cultivate the habit of observing and discovering beauty in life and cultivate good sentiments.
(3) Choose rich and interesting content to stimulate children's interest in painting.
Interest and curiosity are the forerunner of interest. Without curiosity, there will be no interest. Therefore, we should work hard on the selection of materials, and choose interesting, attractive and familiar themes according to children's age characteristics, hobbies and painting characteristics. For example, cartoon characters and toys that children like. You can arouse children's interest by watching CDs and telling stories, string the contents of paintings into storylines, and start painting with the storylines, which can improve children's interest in painting. Children with these themes are both interested and willing to accept.
It is a child's nature to love playing with mud and tearing paper, and it can also be combined with painting. It does not pursue the effect of the work like a simple painting activity, but pays attention to the fun of hands-on operation, which is naturally liked by children. Children's perception of objects gained in the activities of squeezing mud, tearing or folding and pasting is helpful for them to express objects in painting. For example, before drawing "string red" with a cotton swab, tear off the paper and paste it in an orderly way. By pasting, it is easy for children to feel the flower shape before drawing.
Third, arouse children's interest in painting with vivid language.
Generally speaking, children are interested in painting, but this interest will not last long. Therefore, in teaching activities, we should constantly stimulate and cultivate children's interest in art activities through various means. First of all, teachers should use vivid language to stimulate children's interest in art activities, and the clever use of vivid language can play a decisive role in art teaching. Children's interesting language can easily make children have relaxed and happy game psychology, make them willing to participate, and make it an effective means to develop children's thinking. For example, when taking children to outdoor activities, guide them to talk to big trees and small flowers. "Tree, tree, you are so tall. Let me draw a portrait for you! " These interesting languages will make children interested in painting invisibly, thus making art activities relaxed and happy, and achieving twice the result with half the effort.
Fourth, constantly change the painting place, children's painting place and children's painting materials to improve children's interest in painting.
Children will get tired of a single way of painting. Therefore, we should pay attention to constantly changing the position of painting and the position of children's painting, and improve children's interest in painting, such as outdoor painting. When painting indoors, the tables are combined together, and everyone forms a circle, sometimes standing and sometimes squatting to paint. No matter what method is adopted, as long as children's painting characteristics are grasped and their interest is stimulated, they can draw seriously, and the classroom discipline is relaxed and lively, and good results have been achieved. Besides, children like drawing in groups very much. On the same big paper, I will be very happy to see the results of my cooperation with my children at a glance. In the process of painting, they are interested in finding their place on the paper. This not only improves children's interest in painting, but also enhances their collective consciousness.
Being different and curious is another important psychological feature of children. The unchanging painting materials will bore children. Oil pastel and watercolor pen are single in painting form, and children lack the ability to use multiple painting tools alternately. The picture is monotonous. Therefore, a variety of painting tools are used, such as: oil-water separation painting, rubbing painting, powder printing, physical printing, scraping painting, ink painting and so on. These paintings are easy to learn, colorful and effective, which can make children experience the joy of success. When designing art activities, using interesting expressions can not only make the picture colorful, but also make children easily interested in painting.
Fifth, let children imagine freely, create boldly and improve their interest in painting.
Art activities are children's games, a way to express themselves with the help of pens, and a special form to express their attitude towards objective things. In art activities, children's imagination and creativity are needed, and their initiative creativity in painting activities should be stimulated. In the previous painting class, only the teaching effect was paid attention to, and children's painting was mainly based on proposition painting. How the teacher teaches, how the children draw, and draw a picture with the same content, form and color as the teacher demonstrated according to the gourd. Doing so will inevitably suppress children's creativity. After a long time, it will not only make children lose interest in painting, but also kill their artistic talent. Therefore, teachers should carefully observe and understand children's interests in the activities of propositional painting. If you find something that children are interested in, you should guide them to create boldly according to their own interests, such as drawing "My Little Hand", so that children can imagine and create boldly on the basis of drawing their own little hands, and add rabbits and trees to the shape of their hands. You can also put forward some clues in teaching as the starting point for children to think, so that they can expand their imagination and create boldly, thus giving play to children's enthusiasm for painting.
Sixth, encourage more and criticize less to cultivate children's self-confidence in painting.
Young children need encouragement and appreciation. When they make a picture, the teacher can say a word of appreciation in time, which can be the motivation for children to learn further. Giving them proper encouragement in time can cultivate and improve their interest and build and consolidate their self-confidence. When teaching children to draw, try to say something positive and encouraging, such as "very good, the color is really beautiful." Or "if. . . . . . It will be better. " To help children build their interest and self-confidence in painting, we should try to avoid accusing words, such as "ugly, you are so stupid!" " This will easily dampen children's self-esteem and enthusiasm and make them lose interest in artistic activities.
7. Appreciate-evaluate children's works and stimulate children's interest in painting.
Everyone hopes that the results of their efforts will be recognized by others. Young children are no exception. We can't just judge a child's works by "image and non-image" and "line and non-line". Children have rich imagination and creativity, and teachers should fully understand and make use of them. To understand childlike innocence and appreciate it from the child's point of view, instead of pursuing perfection, we should pay attention to finding that every line, character and color on the screen can convey children's thoughts and emotions, appreciate the dribs and drabs of children's creation, provide children with opportunities for sharing and communication, and let them have more communication. For example, children's works in the exhibition, appreciate and evaluate each other, and improve their evaluation ability at the same time. Every child has his own unique personality, and their paintings have distinctive characteristics. Some works can only be understood and explained by himself. Therefore, when evaluating children's art works, teachers should respect children, be good at discovering the essence of children's works and show an attitude of acceptance and recognition. Only in this way can they communicate with their children, and their self-confidence and interest will increase after being affirmed by their teachers.
In modern times with highly developed spiritual civilization, painting has been recognized as an ideal means to cultivate pioneering talents. Therefore, cultivating children's interest in painting can not be ignored. If we pay attention to cultivating children's strong interest in learning in early childhood, it will benefit children for life.
