How to implement the principle of innovation in children's art education

There are two different tendencies in art education. One is that under the influence of traditional education, children blindly imitate learning and are passive learners. Without models to draw, they don't know how to draw. The other is that after accepting the idea of educational reform, teachers always take a positive attitude in creative artistic activities, let children draw whatever they want, let children create blindly, let children unilaterally emphasize the expression of personal emotions and feelings, and ignore the guidance of teachers, so that children lose interest in art because they have no certain performance skills and it is difficult to express their feelings in artistic language. It can be seen that children cultivated by these two tendencies are unsuccessful and will not adapt to social development. The Outline points out that children's art teachers should take children as the main body of creation, create opportunities for children to express themselves freely, encourage children to express their feelings, understanding and imagination boldly in different artistic forms, respect each child's thoughts and creations, affirm their unique aesthetic feelings and expressions, share their happiness and help them improve their performance skills. Then, how to implement innovative education in the usual art teaching? The art innovation education in kindergarten is that teaching and learning complement each other, and I have also made some attempts in practical education. Now share with you.

First, close to life, cultivate beauty and inspire children to create beauty.

Aristotle, an ancient Greek philosopher, said, "Without the presentation of images, there would be no creative activities." All creation comes from life, and the new syllabus also points out that "children should be guided to contact with beautiful people, things and things in the environment and life, enrich their perceptual experience and aesthetic taste, and stimulate their interest in expressing beauty and creating beauty." To cultivate children's imagination, we should try our best to make children close to life and feel and discover beauty in the natural and social environment. Thereby sprouting creative desire.

(1) Choose teaching content that is suitable for children's age and close to their lives.

When choosing teaching materials for children's art activities, I dig out good topics from children's life experiences according to their cognitive development level and life experience, and choose topics that children are familiar with and interested in. If children like small animals, I will design such painting contents as "lovely rabbit" and "Xiaohua Mall playing with a ball", and "lovely snail" will be used as the contents of paper workers and masons. They can also choose their familiar toys and objects as the theme, such as "magic buttons". In addition to the teacher's presupposition, children can also create what they want to create at points of interest, thus enriching their life experience.

(2) Guide children to feel the beauty of the surrounding environment and life.

1. Let children use various senses to perceive the colors of nature and the shapes of everything in the world, and use various senses to understand everything around them, so as to gain a profound and meticulous life experience: architecture and environmental design can also be observed in life. Use the camera to shoot all kinds of pictures, freeze the cartoon scenes that children are interested in, guide children to discover, cultivate their interest in life, improve their aesthetic cultivation, let children observe and appreciate beauty anytime and anywhere in life games, and also express and create beauty at will and in time. For example, the comprehensive activity "Crab" organized by me, in order to let children create better, let children collect all kinds of pictures in advance, observe the real thing by feeding, listen to the self-created music "Crab", play finger games, infiltrate all kinds of senses, and let children create outside of kung fu.

2. Guide children to appreciate some classic paintings. Because artistic creation comes from life and is higher than life. The contents of these works of art include the innovation of theme and expression. Put Van Gogh's Sunflower and Hearfield's masterpiece Bright Fruit in the Art Corner to feel the bright colors and know the types of colors. In addition, by observing the masterpieces of the masters, children can feel the beauty and thus boldly imagine and create. Teachers' works and excellent children's works can also be posted in small galleries, so that children can feel the works of masters with penetrating power.

Second, guide children to innovate independently and express freely in artistic activities in their own unique way.

(1) Stimulate the creative desire of children's art with novel organizational methods.

1, developing creative thinking with addition

Example 1: Circle can inspire and guide children of different ages to draw balloons, apples, wheels, the sun, smiling faces, lifebuoys, watches, balls, plates, cats, rabbits and other objects by adding pictures. In the middle and large classes, you can also imagine the circle. I not only ask children to show it, but also ask them to describe it in words to develop their creativity and imagination from different angles.

Example 2: Teachers only provide basic demonstrations, so that children can give full play to their imagination and add more details. For example, the teacher demonstrates a rabbit to remind the children of grass and green grass in the small class, two or three in the middle class, radishes, cabbages, fields, forests, turtles, birds and so on. A vivid picture jumps from the paper.

2. Scene reappearance is helpful to understand the theme and create boldly.

Teachers use popular and vivid language to reproduce scenes and render emotions, which helps children to create boldly and fully imagine according to their own understanding. For example, I learned painting for the first time-the lovely Haiteng. Teacher: Hai Teng has been in Guangzhou for half a month. I miss him very much. What about you? Yang: Yes, I miss him very much. Teacher: Shall we draw a picture of him smiling as a souvenir? Yang: OK. Teacher: How to draw? Under the guidance of the teacher, children feel how to express characters in artistic language while touching all parts of the body. There are 10,000 lovely shapes of Haiteng on the concrete floor: a cartoon with a big head and a small body, sitting on the ground with two feet * open on the head and one foot sideways ... What's more worth mentioning is Zi Qi's painting, in which he expresses that Jia Jia is tall and big, Haiteng is smaller and I am the smallest. He vividly reproduced the relationship between them and their height contrast.

3. The game mode stimulates creative enthusiasm.

According to children's playful and active characteristics, we strive to make painting activities gamified. For example, in the game of "Little Photographer", the teacher gave each child a toy camera before the game and asked them to be little photographers. Their customers are beautiful dolls, building blocks, chickens, ducklings and other toys that teachers put in various places in the classroom in advance, and they are required to draw a photo every time they take a photo. The children jumped for joy when they heard that they were going to be photographers. Before pressing the shutter, they should remind the small animals: "Don't move, smile." Imitate adults vividly, with relish, and every photo is carefully drawn. This not only greatly stimulated the children's creative enthusiasm, but also made them revel in the game and have fun. There are other forms of games, such as painting relay and cooperative painting, which children like and are willing to participate in.

4. Combine activities in various fields and spread the wings of imagination.

In artistic activities, it is often combined with activities in various fields to stimulate emotional senses, and painting is combined with music, prose, stories and poems to mobilize children's hearing, arouse association and imagination according to what they hear, and spread the wings of children's imagination. Appreciate some famous songs, cultivate children's aesthetic taste, and draw what they hear and feel. For example, when enjoying the March of the Lion King, let the children perform along with the music. The children's confident and free performances are vivid, and the children's walking posture is performed to expand their imagination, so that the animals they describe will jump on the drawing paper in various ways. Children also like to listen to stories. Using this hobby, children are required to recall the story and the characteristics and dynamics of the main characters after listening to the story, tell the children the fairy tale "The Adventure of the Rabbit", guide the children to boldly imagine what will happen after the climax of the story, and encourage various ideas. Children dare to think and have active creative thinking. Children's painting performance will naturally be more positive, with rich, wonderful and enthusiastic content.

5. It is fun to do and feel the fun of creation.

The ability of artistic hands-on operation is of great significance to improve aesthetic ability and promote children's creativity. It is necessary to give children more opportunities to practice and let them use their hands and brains. Children can use their hands and brains to create creatively and feel the joy of artistic creation and success. Teachers should actively create hands-on opportunities for children and carry out various manual activities as much as possible, such as: paper printing, seal painting, grass blowing painting, leaf pasting, mason modeling, vegetable platter, etc ... In the "radish cucumber platter", we can see how rich children's creative imagination is, and they can add realistic and imaginary things at will.

6, children do children speak, improve the creative expression of self-expression.

Only when children have freedom of speech, especially freedom of asking questions, can their creativity be fully exerted. In my artistic activities, I give children ample opportunities to ask questions and express their thoughts and feelings boldly. Giving children the opportunity to fully express their understanding of the objective world helps teachers to read "understand" children's works and guide children to continue their creation. For example, in the activity of painting "Autumn Fruits", a child painted various fruits on the big tree. The teacher asked, "Your fruit tree is very beautiful. Why do you want to draw it like this? " The child replied happily, "With this kind of tree, people don't have to work too hard and pick whatever they want." The teacher suddenly realized that he was busy guiding: "Watermelon is so big, can it be hung on a tree?" The child paused and said, "Give it a net bag!" " "He said, and drew a watermelon net bag. In this way, children's creativity has been improved in the process of speaking. For another example, when sorting out the "magic buttons", I asked the children to explore the buttons themselves and inspire them to say what buttons with different shapes look like. Children say bananas, mushrooms, flowers and so on. Let children talk about the names they put on during spelling and posing. Some children say that they have spelled out paths, flowers and houses ... Children boldly imagine and pose in the process of speaking.

(2) Teachers' guiding methods to activate and guide inspiration to promote children's imagination and creativity.

To give full play to the autonomy of children's painting, teachers must adhere to the principle of "respecting children's dominant position and giving full play to teachers' leading role". Change the traditional teaching method of using examples, demonstrating and explaining, and teachers imparting knowledge and skills in one direction: use the methods of appreciating and observing, discussing and communicating, trying to demonstrate and thinking, giving more examples and demonstrating more parts: less complete examples and less complete demonstrations. Let children draw freely and creatively, and tap their creative potential. For example, in The Lovely Haiteng, children's mastery of the role only shows their own consciousness. Some children draw their hands or feet on their heads, while others draw their hands and feet in a line. Teachers use masons to "spell villains" to let children know where their heads and feet should be attached, and at the same time, they should be attached to different positions of the body, and the dynamics of the characters are different. It is wise to teach children routine skills in this way without suppressing their thinking. While playing with the "water gun" made of abandoned mineral water bottles, the teacher asked, "What does water look like on the ground? "Children observe and imagine under the guidance and inspiration, and immediately carry out the creativity of' ink painting'. They are very happy and enjoy themselves.

Third, appreciate and attach importance to children's creative achievements with parents, and enhance children's creative self-confidence.

Psychological research shows that young children often study for the recognition of their parents and teachers. Therefore, the recognition and evaluation of parents and teachers is very important and necessary. Teachers should guide parents to understand children, because children's thinking is intuitive, while adults' thinking is abstract. In order to reach a consensus, adults must learn to understand children, observe children, see the world with children's eyes, think with children's way of thinking, make the best use of the situation, and let children learn actively. When adults know children well and can appreciate their own works from their children's point of view, they should give timely affirmation and praise to children's works and stimulate their desire to create again. Teachers should guide parents to discuss with their children what they don't understand in their works, aiming at developing children's imagination and creativity and promoting children's potential to further develop in art activities.

The teaching methods and learning methods of kindergarten art innovation education are aimed at teachers and children, who are both the main bodies. In order to cultivate children's creativity and uniqueness in kindergarten art innovation, teachers should first establish new ideas and new consciousness of art innovation education, improve children's innovative education ability, and master the requirements, methods and strategies of art innovation education. Secondly, the proper use of teaching methods and learning methods in kindergarten art innovation education will make children truly become "everyone is a creative person" and "always creative".
