Cinquain for the word education. Sinkwine as one of the techniques of the system-activity approach to teaching English

Modern man processes huge amounts of information. However, there is often no benefit from storing fragmentary information.

How can you learn to extract from information what will later be useful in your professional activities? And will it be useful not only for adults, but also for children?

There is an answer to these questions! Educational technologies, such as the Technology for the Development of Critical Thinking through Reading and Writing, help, based on the analysis and synthesis of information, to retain in memory what is difficult to do without when comprehending the basics of various sciences.

One of these methods is syncwine.(from French five-line).

Sinkwine- a formalized poem without rhyme, consisting of five lines.

First line

A one-word name, usually a noun.

Second line

Two words- adjectives or participles that characterize or describe the topic specified in the first line.

Third line

Three words- verbs or verbs with gerunds, telling about the typical actions of the described object.

Fourth line

A phrase or sentence (ideally if it consists four words), which expresses the personal opinion of the author of the syncwine about the subject of the poem. It is possible to use sayings, proverbs, quotes, and set expressions.

Fifth line

A word that summarizes or expands the content of a topic. Usually this is a noun with which the author reflects his own associations and feelings. But it is also possible to use words from other parts of speech: pronouns, adverbs or interjections.

Exercises in composing syncwines are liked by both teachers and students. Here are 27 examples. Their authors are teachers, directors and head teachers of schools, heads of professional educational organizations, who took part in the All-Russian practical seminar last November “Educational technologies recommended for the implementation of the Federal State Educational Standard”.

The transition to an information society is accompanied by global changes in all spheres of human life. To a large extent, these changes concern the education system, the main task of which is the transition to training based on a competency-based, activity-based approach. Currently, we need a graduate who is able to make decisions as independently as possible in non-standard situations and think creatively.

To achieve success in teaching students, the teacher must constantly improve himself and improve his lesson. Modern pedagogical approaches and methods of teaching students make it possible to increase cognitive interest in the subject being studied and improve the quality of knowledge.

The choice and further application of any teaching technique should be based on the principles of humanization, differentiation and individualization, democratization. It is necessary to adhere to the trend of transition from information forms to active forms and methods of teaching, which involve elements of problem-solving, scientific research, and the use of reserves of independent work of students. One of these techniques that I use in my lessons is the technique of writing a didactic syncwine.

Didactic syncwine developed in the practice of the American school. The text of this genre is not based on syllabic dependence, but on the content and syntactic function of each line. The ability to summarize information in a few words is an important skill. It requires thoughtful reflection based on a rich conceptual stock. Sinkwine is interesting as a form of creative reflection. Writing syncwines allows you to develop the ability to synthesize and analyze the information received.

This technique also helps me solve many important problems at once:

The material studied in the lesson takes on a certain emotional connotation,

The vocabulary of students is significantly activated,

The skill of using synonyms, antonyms in speech is improved,

Mental activity is activated and developed,

The ability to express one’s own attitude towards something is improved.

The origin of syncwine and its features.

The word cinquain comes from the French “five”. Loosely translated, this word means (“five inspirations” or “five lucks”)

Cinquain is an unrhymed five-line poetic form that originated in the United States in the early 20th century. The cinquain form was developed by the American poetess Adelaide Crepsi, who relied on Japanese miniatures - haiku.

Sinkwine is used for didactic purposes, as an effective method for developing figurative speech, which allows you to quickly obtain results, as a tool for synthesizing complex information, as a cross-section for assessing students’ conceptual and vocabulary knowledge.

The features of syncwine are that it is a form of free creativity, syncwine is easy to construct, and most importantly, it is useful for developing the ability to analyze.

Writing a syncwine requires the compiler to realize all his personal abilities (intellectual, creative, imaginative). The procedure for compiling a syncwine allows you to harmoniously combine elements of all three main educational systems: informational, activity-based and personally oriented.

Rules for compiling syncwine

1. The first line is the theme of the syncwine; it contains one word that denotes the object or subject that will be discussed (usually this word is a noun or pronoun).
2. The second line consists of two words that describe the characteristics and properties of the item or object selected in the syncwine (as a rule, adjectives or participles are used).
3. The third line is formed by three verbs or gerunds that describe the characteristic actions of the object.
4. The fourth line is a four-word phrase that expresses the personal attitude of the author of the syncwine to the subject or object being described.
5. The fifth line contains a summary word that characterizes the essence of the subject or object.

Syncwine scheme:

Line 1 – syncwine theme - noun

Line 2 – description of the characteristics and properties of the object – two adjectives

Line 3 – characteristic actions of the object – three verbs

Line 4 – a phrase expressing the author’s personal attitude towards the object

Line 5 – word = summary characterizing the essence of the object – noun

The simplicity of constructing syncwine makes it one of the effective methods of child development, which allows you to quickly get results.

Algorithm for working on syncwine, options for syncwine.

Acquaintance with syncwine is carried out according to the following procedure:

1. The rules for writing syncwine are explained.

2. Several syncwines are given as an example.

3. The theme of the syncwine is set.

4. The time for this type of work is fixed.

5. Options for syncwines are heard at the request of the students.

Writing a syncwine is a form of free creativity that requires the author to be able to find the most significant elements in information material, draw conclusions and formulate them briefly. This type of work takes a short period of time, which allows you to interview each student and assess the correctness and level of mastery of the material studied. Various variations for composing syncwine contribute to the diversified composition of tasks.

In addition to independently compiling a new syncwine, (Annex 1) The following options are possible:

Compiling a short story based on a ready-made syncwine (using words and phrases included in the syncwine);

Correction and improvement of finished syncwine;

Analysis of an incomplete syncwine to determine the missing part (for example, a syncwine is given without indicating the topic - without the first line, the student must determine it based on the existing ones).

To compose a syncwine, you need to meaningfully understand the content. As the syncwine is written, leading questions can be asked, and the pentaverse can be composed both individually and in groups.

In addition to the “classic” version of writing syncwine, I use the following options:

a) compiling a short story based on a finished syncwine, analyzing an incomplete syncwine. (Appendix 2) With this type of work, you can fully see not only the lexical volume of students’ knowledge, but also correction, development of speech and thinking abilities. There are many options for creating new texts. The proposed “tracing paper” in the form of syncwine lines stimulates interest not only in the topic studied, but also in the discipline.

b) correction and improvement of the finished syncwine. (Appendix 3) Based on the already proposed ready-made syncwine, work is being carried out in such areas as discussing inaccurate phrases and replacing them with others - so, in this case, you can choose a more correct phrase in the fourth line.

Conclusion.

The technique of composing a syncwine, which at first glance seems simple, hides a powerful, multifaceted tool for reflection. After all, assessing information, expressing thoughts, feelings and ideas in a few words is, in fact, not so easy. But this work is both complex and fruitful, both for the teacher and for the students.

This type of work implies the inclusion of all student thought processes - analytical, synthesizing and creative, because you need to prove your own point of view, as well as come up with your own original answer.

Thus, the procedure for compiling a syncwine, being an effective innovative method, allows you to harmoniously combine elements of all three main educational systems: informational, activity-based and personality-oriented.

By observing students in class, you are convinced that they are interested. Their attention is focused on completing a particular task. The results of such lessons are also encouraging. Each student receives positive grades in class. And the students themselves rate their work and the work of the teacher in the lesson with the highest scores.

Cinquain consists of five lines and, despite the fact that it is considered a type of poem, the usual components of a poetic text (the presence of rhymes and a certain rhythm) are not mandatory for it. But the number of words in each line is strictly regulated. In addition, when composing a syncwine, you must use certain parts of speech.

Synquain construction scheme is this:

• first line – syncwine theme, most often one word, a noun (sometimes the topic can be two-word phrases, abbreviations, first and last names);
• second line – two adjectives, characterizing the topic;
• third line – three verbs(actions of an object, person or concept designated as a topic);
• fourth line – four words, a complete sentence describing the author’s personal attitude to the topic;
• fifth line – one word, summing up the syncwine as a whole (conclusion, summary).

Deviations from this rigid scheme are possible: for example, the number of words in the fourth line can vary from four to five, including or not including prepositions; Instead of “lonely” adjectives or verbs, phrases with dependent nouns are used, and so on. Usually, the teacher who gives the task to compose a syncwine decides how strictly his students should adhere to the form.

How to work with the syncwine theme: first and second line

Let's look at the process of inventing and writing a syncwine using the topic “book” as an example. This word is the first line of the future poem. But a book can be completely different, so how can you characterize it? Therefore, we need to specify the topic, and the second line will help us with this.

The second line is two adjectives. What's the first thing that comes to mind when you think of a book? For example, it could be:

• paper or electronic;
• sumptuously bound and richly illustrated;
• interesting, exciting;
• boring, difficult to understand, with a bunch of formulas and diagrams;
• old, with yellowed pages and ink marks in the margins made by grandmother and so on.

The list can be endless. And here we must keep in mind that there cannot be a “correct answer” here - everyone has their own associations. Of all the options, choose the one that is most interesting to you personally. This could be an image of a specific book (for example, your favorite children's books with bright pictures) or something more abstract (for example, “books of Russian classics”).

Now write down two characteristics specifically for “your” book. For example:

• exciting, fantastic;
• boring, moralizing;
• bright, interesting;
• old, yellowed.

Thus, you already have two lines - and you already have an absolutely accurate idea of ​​the “character” of the book you are talking about.

How to come up with the third line of syncwine

The third line is three verbs. Here, too, difficulties may arise: it would seem, what can a book “do” by itself? To be published, to be sold, to be read, to stand on the shelf... But here you can describe both the impact that the book has on the reader and the goals the author set for himself. A “boring and preachy” novel, for example, might enlighten, moralize, tire, put to sleep and so on. “Bright and interesting” book for preschoolers – entertains, interests, teaches reading. Exciting fantasy story - captivates, excites, awakens the imagination.

When choosing verbs, the main thing is not to deviate from the image that you outlined in the second line and try to avoid words with the same root. For example, if you described a book as fascinating, and in the third line you wrote that it “fascinates,” you will feel like you are “marking time.” In this case, it is better to replace one of the words with a similar meaning.

Let’s formulate the fourth line: attitude to the topic

The fourth line of the syncwine describes a “personal attitude” to the topic. This causes particular difficulties for schoolchildren who are accustomed to the fact that attitudes must be formulated directly and unambiguously (for example, “I have a good attitude towards books” or “I think books are useful for raising the cultural level”). In fact, the fourth line does not imply evaluativeness and is formulated much more freely.

In essence, here you need to briefly outline what is most important for you in the topic. This may be relevant to you personally and your life (for example, “ Began reading at age four" or " I have a huge library", or " I can't stand reading"), but this is optional. For example, if you think the main disadvantage of books is that they use a lot of paper to produce, for the production of which forests are cut down, you don’t have to write “I” and “condemn.” Just write that " paper books – tree graves" or " book production is destroying forests”, and your attitude to the topic will be quite clear.

If it is difficult for you to immediately formulate a short sentence, first express your thought in writing, without thinking about the number of words, and then think about how you can shorten the resulting sentence. As a result, instead of " I love science fiction novels so much that I often can’t stop reading them until the morning"It might turn out, for example, like this:

• I can read until the morning;
• I often read all night long;
• I saw a book - I said goodbye to sleep.

How to sum it up: the fifth line of syncwine

The task of the fifth line is to briefly, in one word, summarize all the creative work of writing a syncwine. Before you do this, rewrite the previous four lines - almost a finished poem - and re-read what you got.

For example, you thought about the variety of books, and you came up with the following:

Book.

Fiction, popular science.

Enlightens, entertains, helps.

So different, everyone has their own.

The result of this statement about the endless variety of books can be the word “library” (a place where many different publications are collected) or “diversity”.

In order to isolate this “unifying word”, you can try to formulate the main idea of ​​the resulting poem - and, most likely, it will contain the “main word”. Or, if you are used to writing “conclusions” from essays, first formulate the conclusion in your usual form, and then highlight the main word. For example, instead of " thus we see that books are an important part of culture”, write simply – “culture”.

Another common option for the ending of a syncwine is an appeal to one’s own feelings and emotions. For example:

Book.

Fat, boring.

We study, analyze, cram.

Classic is a nightmare for every schoolchild.

Yearning.

Book.

Fantastic, fascinating.

Delights, captivates, deprives you of sleep.

I want to live in a world of magic.

Dream.

How to learn to quickly write syncwines on any topic

Compiling syncwines is a very exciting activity, but only if the form is well mastered. And the first experiments in this genre are usually difficult - in order to formulate five short lines, you have to seriously strain.

However, after you have come up with three or four syncwines and mastered the algorithm for writing them, things usually go very easily - and new poems on any topic are invented in two or three minutes.

Therefore, in order to quickly compose syncwines, it is better to practice the form on relatively simple and well-known material. For training, you can try to take, for example, your family, home, one of your relatives and friends, or a pet.

Having dealt with the first syncwine, you can work on a more complex topic: for example, write a poem dedicated to any of the emotional states (love, boredom, joy), time of day or time of year (morning, summer, October), your hobby, hometown, etc. Further.

After you write several such “test” works and learn to “package” your knowledge, ideas and emotions into a given form, you will be able to easily and quickly come up with syncwines on any topic.

Sinkwine as a method of teaching and upbringing, used in the practice of extracurricular activities in the primary classes “Native Word”.

The article briefly introduces one of the effective techniques that ensures the active nature of learning. This technique is used at the reflection stage, in particular, according to the Singapore method. The information will be useful to teachers of educational institutions and additional education teachers interested in developing the creative abilities of children.

Target: introduce teachers and additional education teachers to one of the effective teaching techniques (at the reflection stage)
Task: to improve pedagogical skills through familiarity with the variety of teaching and upbringing techniques, their application in the practice of extracurricular activities in the primary classes “Native Word”.

From work experience

The introduction of federal state educational standards in the school education system orients us, teachers, towards achieving three groups of educational results: personal, meta-subject and subject.
One of the stages of a modern lesson is reflection stage, in which students’ self-assessment of activities in the lesson is organized, and finally the degree of compliance with the set goal and the results of the activity is recorded (correlation between the purpose of the lesson and its results, self-assessment of the work performed in the lesson, awareness of acquiring new knowledge).
One of the effective techniques that provides an activity-based approach to learning at the reflection stage is syncwine.

Translated from French, the word “cinquain” (from the French cinquains, English Cinquain) means a poem consisting of five lines, which is written according to certain rules, which arose in the USA at the beginning of the 20th century under the influence of Japanese poetry. Later it began to be used (lately, since 1997, in Russia) for didactic purposes, as an effective method of developing figurative speech, which allows you to quickly get results.

Sinkwine from a pedagogical point of view

And when its positive influence on the development of intellectual and analytical abilities, figurative speech was noticed, syncwine began to be used for pedagogical and educational purposes.

Writing a syncwine is a form of free creativity that requires the author to be able to find the most significant elements in information material, draw conclusions and formulate them briefly. In addition to using syncwine in literature lessons, it is also practiced to use syncwine as a final assignment on the material covered in any other discipline. During the discussion, the teacher can determine the level of assimilation of educational material by the active participation of schoolchildren: understood, understood - offers the necessary words.
It is interesting to compile a syncwine in group interaction: each group can present its own syncwine on a given topic, for example, in a review and generalization lesson. Discussion of the results of the groups’ work activates attention to the educational material and helps to increase the level of motivation.

Ease of construction

The simplicity of constructing syncwine makes it one of the effective methods of child development, which allows you to quickly get results. In particular, getting to know the very concept of a word and expanding your vocabulary to more effectively express your thoughts.

Sinkwine in Russia.

In Russia, after the positive experience of using syncwine in other countries, such as America, and numerous domestic pedagogical publications indicating the effectiveness of syncwine in education, syncwine began to be used in 1993.

And today, dozens of domestic authors point to the great help of syncwine in establishing the correctness and meaningfulness of speech for young children, as well as in the experience of correct use of various terms. Therefore, syncwine has firmly entered the Russian education system, and began to be used even when working with preschool children, not to mention high school students

Algorithm for writing syncwine.

1st line. Who? What? (usually a noun or pronoun) that denotes the object or thing that will be discussed.

2nd line. Which? 2 adjectives (they describe the characteristics and properties of the item or object selected in the syncwine)

3rd line. What is he doing? 3 verbs (describing characteristic actions an object

5th line. Who? What? (New sound of the theme). 1 noun characterizing the essence of a subject or object.

Strict adherence to the rules for writing syncwine is not necessary. For example, to improve the text, you can use three or five words in the fourth line, and two words in the fifth line. It is possible to use other parts of speech.

Compiling a syncwine

Coming up with syncwines is quite a fun and creative activity, and it does not require special knowledge or literary talents. The main thing is to master the form well and “feel” it.

Conclusion.

I believe that the ability to compose syncwines will help in further education at secondary level. We already have some experience. Our work has shown that compiling a syncwine:

Enriches vocabulary;

Prepares for a brief retelling;

Teaches you to formulate an idea (key phrase);

Allows you to feel like a creator at least for a moment;

It works for everyone.
