The modern methodology of teaching academic disciplines requires that the lesson be as saturated as possible with cognitive material, so that the student takes out not only a certain percentage of new information and knowledge, but also skills. The main principle of learning is based on the triad: “student-teacher-student”. This means that it is the student himself who needs to acquire knowledge, and the teacher only plays the role of the director, guiding and correcting his pet in time.
Explanation of the term
How is synquine related to all this? Examples of using it in the classroom as an entertaining, playful or generalizing moment prove that it is very, very crowded. But first, explain the meaning of the term. The word itself came to us from the French language, it is also in English. This is the name of the five-line poem, a special form of which developed under the influence of Japanese tanku and hoku. The principles of associativity, cause-and-effect relationships, which are rich in synquane (examples can be found in the works of the American poetess Adelaide Crapsey), made it possible to use the very principle of its construction in pedagogy. Thus, the creative method from the category of "art" passed into teaching practice. It allows you to effectively develop
imaginative thinking and speech, is an excellent tool in comprehending and synthesizing complex program material. An entertaining, playful element, present at the time of writing a poem on a given topic, arouses the interest of students in the material being studied, stimulates their logic, and develops the creative side of the personality. So, passing the topic "Noun", you can invite children to compose a sequin, examples of which will indicate the main grammatical categories of this part of speech.
The art of compilation
What does it look like in practice? Suppose: "Noun - Independent, independent / Declines, animates, changes / Designates an object in the broad sense / Existing." How is syncwine built? The examples given here provide an opportunity to illustrate this clearly. The first line should consist of one word, just expressed by a noun. This is the theme of the poem, at the same time its title and key concept. That is, further content should disclose what is stated in this line. The compilation of the syncwine at the next stage is the two
names of the adjectives from which the second line is built. Then, in the third line, only verbs are used, they are also 3. In fourth place there is already a whole phrase that reveals one of the semantic aspects of the topic of syncwine. And the last, fifth line - again 1 word, noun. At first glance, such a construction seems complicated. But if you practice, the children will quickly learn the technique and learn how to compose such puzzle verses themselves. How they are useful: they allow you to abstract from trifles, particulars and highlight the most significant points.
Linguistic games
Having explained lucidly the rules of syncwine, the teacher can devote part of the lesson to a linguistic circle or elective to this topic. What examples of poems can schoolchildren have in connection with the study of the theme “Poet and Poetry” in Pushkin’s work? Naturally, each literature is perceived subjectively. And yet, what can happen: "Poet / Independent, persecuted / Calls, educates, criticizes / Poetry - the highest reflection of life / Art."
Syncwane can be used in teaching practice widely, in various subjects.
