How to use games to cultivate children's innovative ability 1. Cultivating children's innovative thinking ability in game activities

A foreign children's museum has such a slogan:? I forget what I heard, I remember what I saw, and I understand what I did. ? This slogan conforms to the psychological characteristics of children's learning, so we should try our best to create opportunities for children to participate in practice.

Nature is infinitely changeable, magical and wonderful, and it is a good place for children to learn and explore. Let children visit nature in person, make full use of their senses to see, smell, listen and touch, and gain rich perceptual ability. When children devote themselves to the observation and cognition of nature, teachers should encourage children to explore themselves in time, so as to achieve something? Let the child do what he can do and let him think what he can think? .

Teachers should seize the opportunity to give children satisfactory answers as much as possible, or ask some questions appropriately according to the actual situation, whether the children ask questions with action expressions or endless questions with words. Why? what do you think? Open questions like this enable children to fully express their views, discuss ways to solve problems, and acquire new knowledge through independent exploration.

Second, cultivate children's innovative ability in science games.

It is clearly pointed out in the Outline: What do you want? Create a relaxed environment for children's inquiry activities and encourage children to ask questions boldly and express different opinions? . Therefore, the core of creative thinking is to strive to create? Free? Children's atmosphere Free breathing? The connotation of this atmosphere should be freedom, democracy, equality and harmony. Only in this way can children play their role? Free spirit? Fully develop subjectivity.

When I play the "ups and downs" game, I use group discussion to guide and encourage children to guess what will happen to pencils, foam, wooden beads, glass beads, iron blocks, erasers, wooden shelves, balls and stones in the water. Prove your guess with experiments and let children play ups and downs in a free atmosphere. During the play, I reminded the children to record their findings.

In the operation, I purposefully guide children to solve difficult problems, so that children can learn to communicate their findings with their peers in the operation and find the answers to the questions. Finally, let the children answer their own guesses according to their own experiments and records. Because of wood blocks, pencils, balls and foam? Light? Floating on the water, but what about stones, iron blocks, glass beads, etc? Is it heavy? Sink into the water.

At the same time, the children also discovered the relationship with? Up and down? Related things, put? A sink? Will things get worse? Floating? Get up. Some children find that when the foam gets wet, it will sink to the bottom? In this kind of study, children not only actively explore problems with their hands and brains, but also learn to express and communicate the process and results of exploration by discussion and recording. Only in this way can children show more initiative, enthusiasm, participation and creativity in the learning process, thus gaining various learning experiences.

Third, cultivate children's innovative ability in sports games.

It has a special position and function to cultivate children's innovative ability in sports activities. Innovation comes from curiosity and the desire to explore and solve problems. Therefore, in sports activities, we can stimulate children's innovative consciousness by creating an environment. Create equipment environment, provide free space, create situational environment and give full play to children's rich imagination. It is to stimulate children's freshness and curiosity from the setting of venues and equipment, such as placing some fresh toys, designing different display methods and different combinations for the same equipment, thus arousing children's curiosity and stimulating their desire to explore problems.

At the same time, we can also leave some gaps in the activity venue for children to play by themselves, which not only stimulates their initiative to create consciously, but also enriches the content of the activity. Physical activity itself is a very practical activity, so teachers can create some opportunities in physical activities and enrich the practicality of activities. On the one hand, we can provide opportunities for practice through self-made equipment. Teachers can provide certain equipment, spare parts or waste items, and guide children to make movable equipment through certain situations. For example, in a throwing activity, I designed an activity to occupy enemy positions. Some children found drink cans, sticks and ropes and made them look like grenades. Some children use radish to make shells, which not only exercises their hand strength, but also cultivates their practical ability and enhances their innovative consciousness.

Fourthly, cultivate children's innovative ability in folk games.

Folk games are rich in content and flexible, and sometimes there are many ways to play a game. Like what? Job hopping? There are many ways to draw a line on the ground with only one sandbag, such as jumping parallel lines, jumping squares, jumping prisms and so on. There are also different ways to jump on your feet, such as jumping on one foot and jumping on both feet. Children can freely find their friends, decide their own ways of playing and play happily. After learning some game methods, the children will also change the way of playing with their friends, re-formulate the rules of the game, and redesign the venue layout. , showing great creativity.

Many folk games are also equipped with catchy nursery rhymes and passwords, and children are always immersed in joy when singing and playing in the game. Children have memorized some nursery rhymes, so they try to adapt them. Teachers guide them to compile the information of the times into nursery rhymes.

Like folk games? Push the car? , the original children's song content is:? Squeak, squeak, scream and push the car to sell cookies. Who wants it? Who wants it? (I want it, I want it) The doll is eating and laughing. ? After adaptation, it became like this: Flute, flute, taxi, get on the bus and deliver cake (or ice cream). Who wants it? Who wants it? The doll giggled at the food. ?

With the change of children's songs, the gameplay has also changed, giving old games new gameplay, making the game more in line with the needs of modern children, making children understand the progress and development of society in the game, increasing the charm of folk games, and inspiring children to actively create and enjoy the fun of the game in the process of playing.

In a word, all kinds of game activities are the source of children's innovative consciousness and the driving force of children's creative development, which need teachers' scientific guidance and careful training to become a prairie fire.
