TEACHING OF RADICAL CHARACTER WITH SEMANTIC RELATEDNESS IN ELMENTARY CLASS

บทคัดย่อ

The teaching of Chinese characters in elementary classes has always been the focus and difficulty of teaching Chinese as a second language. On the basis of previous research, the author selects 163 radical characters requiring more than 4 characters formation abilities as the first breakthrough in Chinese writing for elementary classes. Mastering the form and meaning of these Chinese characters is the beginning of a systematic study of Chinese characters, which can help students better understand the combined characters that contain these radicals. The author traces the semantic origin of 163 radical characters, selects the glyphs similar to the simplified characters from their ancient fonts and lists them, and gives a brief explanation. According to their original meanings, they are incorporated into four categories: human life course and human body parts; natural environment; sacrifice and war; food, clothing, shelter, living utensils and transportation. These semantic connections make them an organic whole, laying a solid foundation for the systematic study of Chinese characters and the improvement of literacy in the future. On the basis of the above classification, we select several Chinese characters that make up the life course, and sort out the teaching ideas for their instruction.
