Etiquette is the basic symbol of modern civilized society, and it is also the external manifestation of individual ideological awareness, moral quality, and cultural upbringing. A good individual Etiquette image is the foundation of our self-esteem, self-love, and self-reliance. The "Guidelines for Learning and Development of Children Aged 3-6" in the social field clearly states that educating young children: "obey basic behavioral norms". Therefore, early childhood etiquette education has become an important part of young children's social education, which is related to a country and Improvement of the overall quality of the nation.

Good etiquette behavior is not innate, but is formed under the influence of social moral public opinion and education. "You are considered older at the age of three, and you are older at the age of seven." Civilized etiquette during preschool education The development of children's habits is of great significance to children's lifelong development. Kindergarten is a basic education institution. How to cultivate good behavioral habits and civility in children from an early age is the unshirkable responsibility of early childhood educators. To this end, our kindergarten has made some efforts in etiquette education strategies for children in their daily lives. Practical attempts in the following aspects:

1. Achieve the formation of synergy of *** consciousness

Han Yu wrote in the article "Teacher's Theory": "Teachers preach, teach, and solve doubts. Also. "Teachers are the objects of admiration and imitation by children, and children imitate their teachers' thoughts and behaviors all the time. Therefore, in early childhood etiquette education, teachers are not only implementers and teachers, but also learners and practitioners. Therefore, we regard the training of teachers as the primary task, focus on theoretical study of teachers, and study the "Code of Professional Ethics for Primary and Secondary School Teachers", "One-day Routine of Kindergarten", etc. The thinking determines the way out, and the thought determines the action. Etiquette is not just an external performance, but the most important thing is the inner performance. Morality is also an important factor in determining the success or failure of etiquette. In order for teachers to become role models of etiquette, they must cultivate their inner skills. We carried out reading activities and organized teachers to read books such as "Three Points for Doing Things, Seven Points for Being a Human Being, and Understanding Life" to enlighten the minds of teachers, so that teachers can unite knowledge and action and know what kind of behavior is in line with etiquette. Teachers' words and deeds, their own qualities and attitudes towards children all have a significant impact on children's behavioral development. "Leading by example and teaching by words and deeds" is the best education method. To provide effective guidance to teachers, only teachers with certain qualities can effectively educate young children.

Therefore, teachers can further clarify their professional norms and strive to shape their own personal charm. Teachers are also organized to learn the etiquette standards for preschool teachers, requiring teachers to be dignified and elegant in appearance, and not to wear high heels, fashionable slippers, loose shawls, or fancy clothes. In terms of behavior, children must do what they are asked to do first. The language should be civilized and polite, children should be greeted in return, children should not be used as a punching bag, and education should be positive. Treat children with sincerity and love. Be humble to each other, respect each other, be tolerant and generous to colleagues, and create a good etiquette education atmosphere so that children can be nurtured and grown in a subtle way.

2. Pay attention to the creation of the environment and create a etiquette atmosphere

The environment is a silent teacher. With the help of the creation of the physical environment, the acquisition of etiquette for children can be continued in time and space, separated from the Pure single model of teaching and learning. In the children's restaurant, design easy-to-understand slogans with pictures and texts, etiquette before and after meals, and birthday etiquette to establish the character of being willing to serve others. We also posted various children's songs around the activity room, such as "You have a home, I have a home, I will go home after the game is over" and so on.

We also set up a "I'm the best" column, where teachers give star-rating feedback to children who perform best in daily routines, effectively guiding children to standardize their behavioral habits.

In order to strengthen the etiquette education of teachers, parents and children, and integrate etiquette education into daily life, so that etiquette education can truly play its role, our kindergarten carries out various etiquette corner activities according to the characteristics of children, such as In the special barbecue area corner activities, children not only enjoy the fun of operation, but also learn how to receive guests, how to use polite words, etc. It is also like a doll's house with small sofas, tables, chairs, and furniture. Father and mother's costumes, props, dolls and other items allow children to learn to respect the elderly, love the young and cooperate with each other during the game.

The kindergarten has carefully arranged and themed the environment, which not only highlights the personality and taste of the kindergarten, but also becomes an important carrier of kindergarten culture, providing subtle value guidance for the development of children. With the creation of a class theme wall, teachers will put etiquette education content on the theme wall every month to penetrate into children's understanding of etiquette content. Parents also display collected etiquette pictures or photos of their children's etiquette behaviors in kindergarten and at home, as well as children's own works on the wall. Children can always see educational content about etiquette. In addition to areas, walls and other environments that allow children to penetrate etiquette education, an atmosphere of politeness and courtesy is also indispensable for etiquette education. In the morning, there are etiquette angels and teachers at the kindergarten to welcome children to the kindergarten. A wide smile, a sincere greeting, and a standard posture often make many parents greatly appreciate it!

3. Etiquette curriculum, reflected in children's daily routine

Early childhood education curriculum is a purposeful and planned teaching activity for children, which incorporates etiquette education into early childhood education. Curriculum-oriented and life-oriented, it aims to use early childhood etiquette education as a purposeful and planned means of implementing early childhood quality enlightenment education.

Based on the age characteristics, individual differences and teaching plans of children, etiquette education is carried out to children twice a week. We start from two aspects. On the one hand, we go deep into stories and children's songs, and design the content of etiquette education into teaching content that is easy for children to accept, so that children know what etiquette is and what behaviors are included in etiquette. For example: "Little Bear as a Guest" allows children to know that when visiting other people's homes, they should knock on the door lightly, greet the guests politely, and not rummage through other people's things in other people's homes. The "Beijing 6+1" textbook allows children to fully understand the occasions when daily etiquette expressions are used, such as: "please", "sorry", "you're welcome", "it's okay", "thank you", etc. In the shared reading "Pull the Carrot", the teacher usually creates a story scene in the classroom, puts a big radish in a big basket, prepares the headwear needed in the story, and lets the children play the roles of grandfather, grandmother, and little flower. Cats, puppies, mice. The children took turns to perform, entertaining and educating, and performed in the story. During the performance, the children understood the content of the story and learned the principles of being polite and helpful to others. In this process, children's oral expression and communication skills have been improved.

On the other hand, we focus on infiltrating etiquette education into various subjects, so that children can be influenced by good behaviors and habits at all times, and promote the comprehensive, harmonious and balanced development of children. For example: During the operation of the art class "Leaf Creative Stickers", children will inevitably have to borrow things from other children, such as materials of different colors, scissors, glue, etc. We require children to be polite when borrowing things and say "please", "thank you" and "you're welcome" to others. For example, during sports activities, if some children bump into others while running or jumping, the teacher can provide random education and let the children say "I'm sorry" to others.

According to the age characteristics of children, children have more frequent interactions with each other, so we will integrate the etiquette education content into the daily life of children. Random education can be carried out with anyone, anywhere, at any time, anywhere, and in any situation. For example, we make full use of daily snacks, lunch and other links to conduct gratitude dining and teacher-thank you etiquette education for children. We also infiltrate etiquette education on making phone calls, being guests, playing with toys, etc.
