Russian language teacher: “Dictionary words should even hang on the toilet door!”
Komsomolskaya Pravda
Search results
of her lessons, students of an ordinary Minsk school score 90 points on the CT and enter universities without tutors [tell us about the lessons of which teacher we should write about!]
The students themselves signal to the teacher whether they know the rule.
Komsomolskaya Pravda continues to talk about teachers who are able to infect both students and colleagues with their enthusiasm. Lidiya Vashchilina, a teacher of Russian language and literature at Minsk School No. 209, is exactly like that.
VOCABULAR WORDS SHOULD BE HANGED EVEN ON THE TOILET DOOR
— When I first come to class, I immediately hand the children three sheets of A4 with two columns of words: “Write correctly” and “Pronounce correctly”, — Lydia shares the method of self-tutoring admission Afanasyevna. — And I say that they hang them at home: over the desk, over the kitchen and even on the door in the toilet! And the fourth copy is in your pocket. You go somewhere (whether on a date, to a workout) — pull it out and teach.
— And how do they feel such pressure?
— At first they are wary, they go to find out about me in other classes. Then they come back and sit quietly. Of course, sometimes they get angry with me. I somehow took a parallel of the 5th grade, and they came with their parents to complain about my requirements. I tell them: “Don’t you understand? In 11th grade, none of you will be looking for a tutor!” So it is: none of my students do extra work, everyone comes with a bang! Many take first places in regional and city Olympiads, in 2008, for example, 14 people in parallel wrote the CT for 90 points and above, seven of them were from my class.
The guys prepare in different ways: they play associations and write dictations.
— My students have separate notebooks for vocabulary words. Made a mistake? You write it 50 times. Did he make a mistake again? 100 times! Nobody wants to write the same thing 150 times, so it usually ends here, — the teacher laughs. — I compose dictations myself, I try to collect as many words with a certain spelling in them. There is, for example, one per rule “After the sizzling” , called “Devil”: “The prim devil sat on a hard burlap sofa and drank cheap acorn coffee…” From such texts one can immediately see who knows the rule and who does not.
And another set hangs on the board so that the correct accents or spelling flash before your eyes.
REMEMBER THE WORDS BY ASSOCIATIONS: ALLA ON THE ALLEY, GALYA IN THE GALLERY
— It happens that guys complain: we can’t remember anything, they say! Then you have to come up with associations. For example, «alley / gallery» — where how many L? In the name of Alla there are two L, which means that in the alley — too. And in Gala — one, so the same number in the gallery. Or the word «stop» — O or A? Some check through “stand”, others — through “stop” … But it can be easier: we come to the bus stop, and there is a bus schedule on the pole — with the letter “A”! Well, or when to write campaign , and when company ? If you meet with friends, sit in a circle. And the circle is O, which means the company.
There is a problem with the roots «poppy» and «mok» («dunk» and «wet»). I explain it like this: when you put something into the water, you do it down (draws an arrow — Ed. ). What letter does the inverted arrow look like? On A! And if something is already in the water and gets wet (it gets wet from all sides, in a circle!) — this is Oh, the root is “wet”. I understand that it is impossible for a normal person to remember everything, so I have to somehow get out. For example, we write all the words from “pre / at” on a sheet of A4 divided into two columns: in one “pre”, in the other — “at”. Even if you can’t figure out why you need to write that way, you will visually remember in which column the word is. Same system with one and two H . And there are no errors!
Literally today I was explaining to the class when in the endings of adverbs formed from non-prefixed adjectives, you need to write O, and when A. To make it easier to remember, I use the “window” principle: I take the prefix of the adverb, make a preposition out of it and add the word “window”. What is the ending at the window, the same will be with the adverb. Here are examples: in the adverb «first» (we use the method — «from the window»), the ending is A. B «to the left» («to the window») — O, «to the left» («on the window») — also O, «to the left» («from the window») — A. I checked each of these words against a large spelling dictionary. Only “early” and “verbatim” did not fit, so I gave them as exceptions.
— Is everything? It’s a lot!
— I remember when I worked in the camp, during quiet hours I read Ozhegov’s dictionary and conjugated verbs for «-it». Everyone knows that all of them, except for “shave” and “lay”, refer to the second conjugation — beat, drink, pour … If you check the third person plural (beat, drink, pour), it turns out that they are I conjugations! Conclusion: if in the verb on “-it” one syllable is the I conjugation, if two or more — the II-th, not counting the prefix and postfix. And all the verbs on “-at”, “-et” and “-yat”, where it is not clearly heard (either cackle, or cackle?), belong to the first conjugation.
INSERT LETTERS INTO WORDS WITH SIGNAL CARDS
— There is another technique called «signal cards». It is very convenient to check children this way, because not one person answers, but the whole class at once! The bottom line is this: each student has two cards of the same size but different colors (for example, green and red). Checking theme «O/Yo after sizzling» . I write a word on the board, and the guys raise a green card if you need to insert O into it, or a red one if Y. They are the same at the back, and only I see the front. Everyone who makes a mistake puts sticks on a separate leaf — I’m watching! It happens that bosom friends begin to prompt each other, then it is the prompter who gets the penal stick. How is it to deceive a teacher in front of witnesses?! Lydia Afanasievna laughs. — And at the end they are handed over to me — and after 5 minutes everyone already knows the results.
— It turns out that classes are constantly training you!
— Exactly! Children often say: “Oh, Lidia Afanasievna, you probably know Russian so well!” And I answer: “I don’t know him by 10 points. Probably only my favorite author, Rosenthal, the smartest man in the world, knows.” I never lie to children: if I don’t know the answer, then I write down the question, look it up in dictionaries, and only then do I answer. After all, if you answer at random and make a mistake, how will they look at me later? Recently they asked which is correct: graffiti or graffiti? I honestly admitted: I don’t know. I looked in Solovyov’s dictionary — he writes, «graffiti», but there are different dictionaries. But what I especially like about working on the culture of speech is that the guys correct each other during breaks. «Will you call me? — You will call! Or “Come, we will sit in the kitchen. “In the kitchen, not in the kitchen!”
— How do you manage the required lesson plans?
— I don’t know how, but I myself decide what to do in class. I know that each class needs to be approached differently: one exercise is enough for this, and with this you need to work out the rule, give your own, not book examples — and only then fix it.
What Lidia Afanasievna hasn’t come up with in her 40 years of work: signal cards, her own rules, dictations, and stencils…
LITERATURE: STUDENTS DO Tricky TESTS AND STAGE «ROMEO AND JULIET»
— Literature also has a system. There is a hint for those who cannot remember the meter. There are five of them: two two-foot (iambic, trochee) and three three-foot ones (dactyl, amphibrach and anapaest). Remember: the letter “x” in the alphabet comes earlier than “I”, which means that in the chorea the stress is on the first syllable, and in iambic — on the second. For trimeters it is like this: dAktil — stress on the first syllable, aMfibrachiy — on the second, and Napest — on the third (because «m» in the alphabet is earlier than «n»).
— How do you work with works?
— When the guys were smaller, they liked to stage fables, they got older — they took up Romeo and Juliet. At first, during the scene on the balcony, we were dying of laughter (the boy Andrei played Juliet). When the boys fought with swords, it was scary. And when Juliet died in the crypt, everyone really cried. Of course, we don’t stage everything. So that the guys do not read the text diagonally, I make up quizzes with very tricky questions. For example, you need to know how many steps Raskolnikov took from his house to the house of an old pawnbroker in order to kill her. 730! Or on which finger did Gray put Assol’s ring on? On the left little finger! — the insidious Lydia Afanasyevna laughs. — I work for children. I don’t even sit in class! Sometimes I go out — and a trickle flows down my back, because I plowed it. But I love working with children so much, this is mine! I believe that the goal of the work of a teacher of the Russian language and literature is to help the children become more beautiful in soul, more noble, learn to see the beautiful. There is a powerful weapon for this — the word. Remember, yes? “With a word you can kill, with a word you can save, with a word you can lead regiments behind you…”
