Abstract

The New Literature Curriculum in General Education (2018) aims to develop learners' qualities and competencies. This is an important step to innovate teaching and meet the requirements of international integration. Therefore, teachers and students are required to change their entire ways of teaching and learning previously to meet the aforementioned objectives. Aesthetic reading is a reading that focuses on readers’ emotions, attitudes, and ideas that appear throughout the reading process. Aesthetic reading in teaching lyric poetry in upper secondary schools is considered an effective and appropriate way of teaching, meeting part of the teaching requirements under the New Literature Curriculum. Based on the analysis of some theoretical issues on aesthetic reading and the teaching of aesthetic reading in upper secondary schools, the paper proposes a process of organizing teaching activities towards aesthetic reading in lyric poetry to improve the effectiveness of teaching Literature in upper secondary schools
