Practice and Exploration of Music Teaching in Primary Schools under the Background of New Curriculum Standards

Abstract

The current focus of domestic attention on the effects of educational quality of primary school students has shifted from the development of morality, intelligence, and physique to the comprehensive development of morality, intelligence, physique, and beauty. Following overall education and teaching environment, primary school teachers have also changed their educational ideas. This change, however, is a long process which needs the promotion of external factors. Therefore, the relevant departments in the field of education have actively launched the policy of "new curriculum reform" to give teachers standardized guidance in changing their thinking. Nowadays, in primary school music classroom teaching, when teachers guide students to learn music-theoretical knowledge and related skills, although they have optimized their teaching mode and teaching idea based on the "new curriculum reform" policy, they have not carried out the people-oriented education and teaching idea to the end in classroom teaching, which makes teachers' teaching quality worrying. In order to improve the quality of primary school music classroom teaching, and promote primary school music teachers' thinking ideas to meet the needs of social development, this paper discusses the present situation of primary school music teaching against the background of new curriculum standards. Results showed that the said curriculum fully combines students' learning characteristics and adopted diverse and innovative teaching strategies and methods which greatly stimulates students' learning enthusiasm, enlivens classroom teaching atmosphere, and improves students' music level and core literacies, thus reflecting the effectiveness of music teaching.
