If we look back and fix our eyes on ancient literacy education, we will find that the saying that literacy is difficult is redundant. Over the past century, most of our efforts to solve the problem of literacy have been redundant. Because literacy was not a problem in ancient China. From Zhou's Shi Zhong Pian, to Qin's Cang Xie Pian, to the Western Han Dynasty's Li He Pian, Fan Jiang Pian, K Ji Jiu Pian, Qian Wen Zi in the Southern and Northern Dynasties, Meng Xue in the Tang Dynasty, Three Amethyst in the Song Dynasty and Hundred Family Names. Long Wen Bian Ying in Ming Dynasty and Primary School Rhyme in Qing Dynasty. It has a history of more than 2600 years, but the images in literacy textbooks follow the following rules.
1, prosodic localization. Write more than 1000 Chinese characters into rhymes. Because Chinese characters have great phonetic characteristics, the sentence patterns of Chinese characters can be arranged neatly and rhymed evenly. Therefore, it is very important to cultivate children's sense of rhyme from an early age. That is, almost all the textbooks of Mongolian studies are rhyming reasons.
English is the oldest and most effective memory method, and some national history has been handed down in this poetic form.
2, four words and one sentence. Necessary teaching materials generally use four words. That's because four words and one sentence conform to the word-formation habits of China people. Influenced by the rhyming of flat tones, most Chinese word groups grow geometrically. With the development of language, there are more and more compound words in early Chinese characters. Words with opposite meanings have words with the same meaning. In the development, there are many compound words with four words and one word, which are included in the Chinese Idiom Dictionary, which is also the essence of Chinese.
3, words do not repeat. At present, the invalid repetition rate of textbooks accounts for more than 90%. The ancients just found a new way to solve this problem. A thousand-character text is a poem composed of 1000 non-repetitive words. After learning this article, you will learn 1000 words. It is a masterpiece in literacy textbooks, and it is also the only textbook that can highly unify various literacy methods such as centralized literacy, decentralized literacy, rhyming literacy and classified literacy.
A thousand words is good. However, due to the age and outdated content, too many words are unintelligible and cannot be used as literacy textbooks for modern Chinese characters. After the end of the Qing Dynasty, thousands of words were no longer used as literacy textbooks, and then the high-speed literacy method he created, which was rare in the world, disappeared.
Graded Word Classics, the main textbook for speed reading children, is a rhyming text table written by the author in the format of "thousand words", which is recognized as the longest-used and most influential textbook for children's enlightenment literacy in the world. It reproduces the long-lost literacy method in the form of modern Chinese and is the most wonderful literacy textbook in the world.
The strangeness of teaching materials can be summarized into several aspects.
One of the strangeness lies in its classification of Chinese characters, which is based on the Outline of National Chinese Proficiency Test (HSK).
Prescribed decomposition standard of commonly used Chinese characters. Literacy textbooks compiled by the four-level system of A, B, C and D are more in line with children's cognitive characteristics, from high-frequency common words to common words.
The second strange thing is that its full text is word for word. He exchanged difficult words for children's efficient study. When a child learns this verse, it is equivalent to learning Chinese characters commonly used in life.
The third strangeness lies in the continuity of rhythm, which is the essence of China literature and the oldest and most effective memory method. The Chinese characters in Jingzi are arranged according to the style of one word and one sentence, four words and one rhyme. Read cadence, catchy, children can recite quickly, easy to learn and easy to remember.
The fourth strange thing is that it is fast and efficient. Ordinary children can learn Chinese characters commonly used in life in three to six months, and easily pass the literacy barrier, which will completely solve the problem of "small delay" in Chinese character recognition and make Chinese characters one of the easiest to learn in the world.
The fifth stranger. Because it can integrate pronunciation, literacy, word formation, rhyme and knowledge, it is a master of many literacy methods.
Strange six. Lies in its unique design. Its dishes are designed by many psychologists and linguists according to the characteristics of children's cognitive psychology and China. According to the different characteristics of Chinese characters, such as size, shape, color, distance, length, syllable and rhythm, he adopted various memory methods, such as image memory, differential memory, beginning and end memory, cyclic memory, rhythm memory, rhyming memory, image memory and associative memory. This ingenious design ensures the accuracy and reliability of children's audio-visual memory of knowledge, which plays a multiplier role.
