With the development of education and teaching reform,aesthetic education has received more and more attention,but aesthetic education must be implemented in the teaching of specific subjects.For Chinese subjects,reading teaching is one of the important parts of Chinese teaching,the aesthetic education based on a reading text with high quality and beautiful text is an important way to improve students’ aesthetic quality.But the sense of beauty does not arise out of thin air.It always depends on a certain context.The Situational Cognition Theory emphasizes the contextuality and dynamic constructivity of knowledge.Therefore,constructing real contexts in the teaching of Chinese reading to promote students’ meaningful learning and turn the abstract aesthetics into concrete situations,enabling students to perceive,understand,appreciate,and create beauty in the situation is of great significance for promoting the development of students’ aesthetic quality.With the help of questionnaire survey and interview methods,this study takes some teachers and students in grades 3-6 of a primary school in Xuzhou as the survey’s objects.It covers five aspects: reading aesthetic perception,reading aesthetic comprehension,reading aesthetic appreciation,reading aesthetic creation,and reading aesthetic teaching to understand the current teaching status of Chinese reading aesthetic education in primary schools.Through investigation,it is found that the penetration of aesthetic education in the current elementary school Chinese reading teaching is still a weak link.There are problems such as "the methods of setting up the situation is formalized,emphasis on presetting and light generation in reading teaching,improper grasp of aesthetic elements in Chinese textbooks,and solidification of reading aesthetic practice".The reasons are mostly related to the three aspects of "not paying enough attention to reading aesthetic education,lack of relevant theoretical guidance,and teachers’ own aesthetic qualities need to be improved".The Situational Cognition Theory emphasizes the self-construction and autonomous generation of students in real situations,which has important theoretical guiding significance for the aesthetic education of Chinese reading in primary schools.Therefore,this research proposes feasible strategies for Chinese reading aesthetic education based on the Situational Cognition Theory: first,return to life,perceiving beauty in the real reading situation;second,stimulate imagination,understanding beauty in spiritual communication;third,multiple dialogues,appreciating beauty in the Chinese reading and learning community;fourth,text interpretation,creating beauty in variant creation;fifth,improve the quality of teachers,promoting the aestheticization of reading teaching.Through the above strategies,the development of aesthetic education in Chinese reading can be effectively promoted,and students’ aesthetic ability can be cultivated. |
