语文教育因其工具性和深厚浓郁的人文性成为学生实现自身社会化和精神成长的重要课程。美国教育家华特指出:“语文的外延与生活的外延相等。”可见,语文的学习与人类的生活是紧密相连的,是不能分割的。离开了生活的语文教学就是无源之水,缺乏活力,教学活动就得不到支撑。因此,我们有必要“让语文教育回归生活”。然而,我国的语文教育特别是小学语文教育虽经历多次改革但依然存在很多问题,其中一个重要症结就在于语文教育与生活疏离。 Chinese education has become an important course for students to realize their own socialization and spiritual growth because of their instrumental and profound humanities. Walter, an American educator, pointed out: “The extension of Chinese is equal to the extension of life.” Thus, language learning is inextricably linked with human life and inseparable. The language teaching that left the living is the passive water, lack vitality, the teaching activity can not be supported. Therefore, we need to “make language education return to life.” However, although Chinese language education, especially primary school Chinese education, has undergone many reforms, many problems still remain. One of the cruxes is that language education and life are alienated.
