On how to do a good job in preschool education in kindergartens

Mathematics is an important part of preschool education and an important learning content in early childhood. Because of its logical and abstract knowledge, mathematics has become an effective tool to promote children's development, especially the development of logical thinking. So how to do a good job in kindergarten mathematics education activities?

First, stimulate children's interest in learning mathematics and cultivate innovative thinking.

At present, there is a kind of "indoctrination" teaching in the process of kindergarten mathematics education: teachers talk, children listen, teachers ask, children answer, teachers demonstrate and children watch. The phenomenon that teachers teach only for imparting knowledge and children learn only for learning knowledge ignores the development of thinking ability and the cultivation of mathematics interest. These disadvantages will inhibit children's creative play and development. Therefore, in mathematics education, we should adopt some colorful teaching methods that children like according to their age characteristics, such as game method, situational teaching method, comparison method and operation method. Therefore, the directional training of children's thinking activities can be changed into multi-directional and flexible, so that children can learn actively and lively and cultivate their creativity. First of all, teachers should ask questions properly in mathematics teaching, so that children can feel that they can pick peaches in one jump. The difficulty of the question should be moderate, which can stimulate children's cognitive contradictions, cause cognitive conflicts and arouse strong interest and curiosity. When children are interested, they will think positively, ask new questions and solve them consciously, thus cultivating the ability of innovative thinking. Secondly, children in early childhood can be said to be curious and good at smelling and exploring. They are full of energy, full of energy, and tirelessly explore the world around them. They want to know everything, and their problems are endless. Children are born with the instinct of investigation and exploration, and exploration is the instinctive impulse of children. Curiosity, thirst for knowledge and spirit of exploration are the innate characteristics of children. However, if they fail repeatedly in the process of learning mathematics activities, they will lose confidence in learning. It is necessary for teachers to create suitable opportunities in the teaching process, so that children can feel the joy of success, thus cultivating children's creative thinking ability. Organize some activities that are conducive to cultivating creative thinking, such as geometric design competitions, logical reasoning story speeches, life math games, etc. Let them fully display themselves in activities, find the combination of life and mathematics, experience the opportunities and happiness brought by mathematics to children, and thus cultivate their creative thinking ability.

Second, we should pay attention to the systematicness and logicality of knowledge in the arrangement of mathematics content.

Mathematics knowledge is systematic and logical, and the content arrangement should follow the logic of mathematics knowledge and the logical order of children's learning, reflecting the characteristics of easy first, difficult later, step by step, and linking up before and after. For example, children must have some basic logical concepts to understand "number". Understanding the practical meaning of numbers is the beginning of understanding numbers and the basis of learning addition and subtraction. Learning the division and combination of numbers can not only help children deeply understand the meaning of numbers, but also help them learn to add and subtract. Therefore, when we arrange the educational content about "number", we only give children some pre-mathematical experiences at first, such as corresponding and sorting activities, so that children can get psychological preparation for learning "number", and then let children perceive the number, understand its practical significance, and guide them to understand the order of numbers and the quantitative relationship between them. In large classes, it combines division, addition and subtraction of numbers to help children form a preliminary concept of numbers. Nowadays, in order to cater to parents and get quick success, some kindergartens cultivate children's computing ability from the beginning, ignoring the foundation of mathematics and children's psychological preparation for learning mathematics, which violates the systematic knowledge of mathematics and the psychological logic of children's learning mathematics, making it difficult for children to learn mathematics and killing their interest in learning mathematics. This is tantamount to encouraging young people, and it is not worth the loss.

Third, mathematics education should pay attention to individual differences.

Every child has his own unique development steps, rhythms and characteristics. Individual differences are particularly prominent in mathematics education. The individual differences of children's learning mathematics are not only manifested in the differences of thinking development level, development speed and learning style, but also in their ability and experience. Therefore, in mathematics education, we should not only "seek common ground" but also "put aside differences". For example, designing the same operation activity can design activities with different levels and difficulties, providing conditions for children to freely choose activities suitable for their own levels and abilities. At the same time, teachers can give appropriate supplements, guidance and inspiration according to the different differences of children. Paying attention to individual differences is the direct embodiment of "people-oriented" in early childhood education.

Fourthly, the materials of mathematics education should be close to children's lives.

Mathematics is abstracted from real life. There is mathematics everywhere in life, such as how to classify toys, how to distribute food, how many children there are in the class, how to queue up during games and so on. The shadow of mathematics can always be captured in children's life, and children's perception of mathematics is also based on life experience. Looking for materials for mathematics education in life is conducive to children to build a continuous and complete mathematics knowledge system. Children's learning is a process of accumulation. In mathematics education close to children's life, children's existing knowledge and experience can help them assimilate and adapt to new knowledge, which provides a broad foundation for children to learn mathematics. Finding materials for mathematics education in life is beneficial to children's interest in mathematics learning. For example, in the "supermarket" activities mentioned above, children will naturally come into contact with mathematical problems such as classification, sorting and calculation. Activities lead children to learn mathematics, and mathematics knowledge promotes children's game. Children participate in exploration for fun, experience success in exploration, and further stimulate interest in exploration because of the happiness of success. This kind of learning has a virtuous circle; Looking for the material of mathematics education in life, it is more important for children to establish the application consciousness of mathematics. Only by applying the content of mathematics education to life can children truly understand the value of mathematics, learn to observe and analyze the problems encountered in daily life with mathematical thinking, and establish confidence in learning mathematics.

Fifth, choose the operational learning method.

Children's understanding should go through the process from individual to general, from concrete to abstract, from perceptual to rational, from low to high. This process is realized in children's independent operation and practice. Only in operation can children explore and experience the fun of learning mathematics and become explorers and pioneers with "innovative consciousness and practical ability". Only through operational inquiry learning can children develop a pair of "eyes" in mathematics, find problems in activities, ask questions and solve problems with their own unique perspectives and strategies. In this way, mathematics can get out of the mysterious ivory tower, become the mathematics that children can see and touch, and become the mathematics that children like! In the operational learning mode, we should first create colorful mathematical scenes to stimulate children's interest in learning. For example, when designing a supermarket activity, children should place goods according to different characteristics (learn to classify), pay attention to beauty and convenience when placing (learn to classify), how much to buy (learn to calculate), and how much to sell (learn to count and correspond). Secondly, don't directly provide methods or tell conclusions, and leave time and space for children to try, discuss and imagine. For example, when learning "division and combination of numbers", we don't directly teach children how to divide, how many divisions there are, and what rules there are. Instead, let the children do their own experiments: throw straws into the cup, see how many fall into the cup and how many fall out of the cup, and make records. Then, combine the cup inside and outside to see if it is the total, and throw it again. In this way, children can learn the law of "dividing and combining numbers" through operation, discovery, summary and induction. In the learning mode of operational exploration, the knowledge that children have learned is the most solid and not easy to forget.

Children's mathematics education is an indispensable part of children's curriculum. To do a good job in kindergarten mathematics education, we need to use our brains to lead children to actively explore and operate, find problems and solve them, so that children can find mathematics interesting and useful.

Summary of pre-school education publicity activities in kindergartens

In order to implement the "Guide to Learning and Development for Children Aged 3-6", we actively organize publicity and training, deepen the reform of kindergarten education, strive to improve the quality of preschool education, and let scientific parenting knowledge really go deep into kindergartens, enter every household, and be deeply rooted in people's hearts. Our park actively takes measures to publicize the national preschool education policy, kindergarten education, family preschool education and other related knowledge, and effectively let parents and preschool teachers get out of the misunderstanding and confusion. The specific work report of our park is as follows:

First, set up a leading group, with a special person in charge.

Set up a leading group with the director as the team leader, deputy director, assistant director and trade union chairman as the deputy team leader, and all teachers as members to implement the publicity month work.

Second, use various methods to strengthen the publicity effect from all directions and angles.

1, college publicity:

(1) The trade union took the lead in organizing the experience exchange activities of the Guide, and shared the experience of learning the Guide and the practical experience of education, which comprehensively and truly reflected the confusion and problems existing in the implementation of the Guide by teachers, and also learned from each other's beneficial experience in implementing the Guide. During the exchange and discussion, the organization and implementation of one-day activities in kindergartens under the background of the Guide were well solved, which opened the prelude to further implementing the spirit of the Guide and standardizing the concept of running schools in our kindergarten, and really made the Guide promote teachers' professional growth and support children's all-round development.

(2) The hope of national rejuvenation lies in education, and the hope of educational rejuvenation lies in teachers. In order to further promote teachers' moral demeanor, show the good image of teachers in our school, improve teachers' moral cultivation, and make school education develop into high-quality and high-priced education, on May 14, our garden sent two teachers, Wu Wenjun and Zhang Mingli, to participate in the theme speech contest of "I love preschool education and I love children" in Anhai Town. In the competition, young teachers have infinite desire and love for sacred education. They have a unique and profound understanding of the significance of education and deeply realize the heavy responsibility they shoulder. In the end, he won the first prize with decisive advantage, which improved the ideological, political and professional ethics of the faculty and played a positive role in further strengthening the construction of teachers' morality and style.

2, social propaganda:

(1) In combination with the "June 1st" celebration, parent-child garden activities and the "Dragon Boat Festival Zongzi Love" parent-child contest will be held, taking this as an opportunity to publicize the policies, guidelines and scientific parenting concepts related to preschool education, further enhance communication and understanding at home, expand people's awareness, concern and participation in kindergarten work, raise the visibility of kindergartens, and strengthen the understanding and understanding of kindergarten education under the background of the Guide.

(2) During the publicity month activities, use the LED display screen of the kindergarten to display publicity slogans and create the atmosphere of publicity month; At the same time, we should use the ways of home contact column and home-school communication to increase publicity efforts, improve the quality of publicity, and further expand the influence of pre-school education publicity month activities in society.

3. Parents' publicity:

(1) Do a good job in parents' publicity, organize parents' representatives of all classes to participate in the launching ceremony of the town's pre-school education publicity month and hold a public lecture on family education on May 9, with the attendance rate reaching 95%; Clarify the importance of student registration, cooperate with the academy to do a good job in pre-school education management information system, and ensure that the data of student registration information management system is accurate and comprehensive; Large classes carry out the activity of "connecting children", so that parents can clearly understand the foundation of early childhood education under the guidance of the Guide, and change the educational concept of "learning literacy early and learning pinyin early" into correctly guiding children to yearn for primary school life, understanding their learning characteristics, returning the right to happy games to children and opposing the tendency of "primary school".

(2) Learn to hold lectures for parents and schools, publicize pre-school education laws and policies, publicize the importance of scientific parenting, answer questions for parents, help parents learn and understand the Guide, and improve their scientific parenting ability; All classes carry out parents' open day activities, and form benign communication with parents through feedback, so that parents can master the ways and means of early childhood education on campus under the guidance of the guide, enhance their confidence and ability in parenting, and consciously resist all kinds of activities that infringe on children's physical and mental health.

This publicity month activity has further aroused the attention and attention of parents and society to early childhood education, further corrected their views on early childhood education, further guided the whole society to establish a correct educational concept, and prevented and corrected the tendency of "primary school" in early childhood education. It has created a strong atmosphere in which the whole society pays close attention to, attaches importance to and understands preschool education, and formed a good social environment conducive to the healthy growth of children, so that the whole society can understand the present situation and future of preschool education development, so that parents and preschool teachers can master the scientific knowledge of education protection and let children live happily and grow healthily. This publicity month activity basically achieved the expected publicity effect.
