The new standards for primary school Chinese curriculum have raised higher requirements for cultivating students' reading and writing abilities, explicitly stating that in teaching, teachers should cultivate students to "enjoy reading, experience the joy of reading; read simple fairy tales, fables, and stories, yearn for beautiful situations, care about nature and life, have their own feelings and thoughts about interesting characters and events, and be willing to communicate with others; gain initial emotional experiences, appreciate the beauty of language; communicate their reading experiences with others; accumulate beautiful words, wonderful sentences, and language materials obtained from extracurricular reading and life; deduce the logical flow of the text, understand the author's emotions, grasp the basic expression methods of the text; in discussions, dare to express their own opinions and make their own judgments; learn to skim, expand knowledge, and gather information as needed." Therefore, our Chinese teaching should guide students through open reading to help them accumulate rich language materials, especially by learning excellent cultural works, allowing them to experience and appreciate the linguistic charm of outstanding works in the process of language practice, thereby enriching their cultural heritage and achieving a qualitative breakthrough in reading ability. I have always advocated combining the process of reading instruction with cultivating students' moral sentiments, elevating their spiritual realms, and enhancing their cultural taste, enabling students to experience and discover insights through reading. In open reading activities, it is essential to enhance students' sense of subjectivity, guide them to think independently, foster an active and proactive spirit of exploration, and thus develop their wisdom and creative talents. Teachers should reduce constraints on students' reading, allowing them to fully diverge their thoughts, enter their imaginative spaces, boldly express themselves, and showcase their distinct individuality. Students should enjoy the joy of reading and be inspired with confidence. Open reading is comprehensive openness, not only in the process of reading instruction but also in the openness of reading thinking and content. The open thinking in reading instruction requires teachers to continuously create conditions to achieve the openness of students' reading spaces and constantly expand the scope of reading. The open thinking in reading instruction also requires teachers to continuously guide students to innovate in reading, achieving the expansion of their thinking. Since students' minds are vivid, their perspectives are clear, their personalities are unique, and their life awareness is strong, innovation is also the soul of students' reading, the key to showcasing their individuality, fully utilizing their personal talents, and experiencing the joy of reading. Only by allowing students to actively and creatively engage in reading and to experience and appreciate it with their hearts can reading become a stepping stone for students to develop a well-rounded personality, enrich their knowledge, and pursue progress. Based on this thinking, we have compiled this series of open reading books, divided into six volumes according to different grades, with each volume containing eighteen open reading exercises and six extended reading reflections. Each unit consists of three open reading exercises and one extended reading reflection. In the compilation, we adhere to selecting texts that are both beautiful in content and form, including works by peers as well as masterpieces by renowned authors, so that students' hearts are filled with pride and hope, and their eyes with excitement and wonder. Beautiful fairy tales can evoke their knowing smiles; moving stories can open their innocent hearts; sincere friendships can express their passionate emotions; and exquisite illustrations can showcase their vibrant lives. Providing them with such natural and sincere language exchanges and telling them to read with their hearts and wisdom will allow them to experience that reading is a harvest.
