古文今樂 第一冊

「古文今樂」是一個創新形式的教育學習系列,其目的是為孩子們在學習中國文學的過程中,提供一個較有趣味性之學習平台。透過中國書法家,視覺藝術家,音樂家及經驗豐富的學術顧問的跨界別合作,將不同的藝術媒體手法,注入中國文學中.
將文學立體化(音樂式的唱頌和西方繪畫技法的表達),務使孩子們更易明白及記下相關文字和意義.

本冊有以下文章:
一. 道德經 - 第一章 道可道 (老子)
二. 道德經 - 第八章 上善若水 (老子)
三. 水調歌頭 - 蘇軾
四. 江城子 - 蘇軾
五. 青玉案 - 辛棄疾
六. 再別康橋 - 徐志摩

特點:

1)音樂
音樂是一種可以幫助孩子輕鬆地背誦文章的方法.是次音樂家以粵語為讀音基礎,編錄優美之旋律,加入人聲歌唱示範,務使孩子們能一邊聆聽,一邊跟著唱頌.這樣,背誦文章便成一樂事!
另外,為使文章更易於推廣和普及,音樂家亦制作了伴奏音樂(MMO),卡拉OK,粵語朗誦示範及普通話朗誦示範,這樣,在不同的場合中(校內/外歌唱比賽,中文週,國民教育活動……),亦能推廣中國文化.

2)視覺藝術
將文字以圖像化呈現,此能提供一種較新之學習體驗.
聲與畫的共融,能讓孩子們對文學作品的內容及意境的思考空間,大大提昇.

3)電子遊戲
新一代擁有不少的便攜式設備,如iPhone,iPad等.以遊戲形式進行中國文學學習活動,肯定能增加孩子們的學習興趣,並抓住他們的注意力。

「古文今樂」是一系列的教育應用,這將在以後的版本中添加更多的文學作品。每一版本中,將有六篇不同的作品詩和不同的視覺藝術。當然,新功能將在以後的版本中添加。

希望大家享受與您的孩子學習中國文學及中國文化。
