When creating kindergarten environment, we should consider its educational nature, so that the goal of creating environment depends on the educational goal of kindergarten. At the same time, children are in an important period of sustained physical and mental development and personality formation, and have various development needs. The creation of kindergarten environment should be suitable for the characteristics and needs of children's physical and mental development. In the process of creating environment, teachers should have the consciousness of letting children participate in the process of creating environment, and realize that the educational nature of children's environment is not only included in the environment, but also included in the process of creating environment.
So how to make full use of space, reflect the language characteristics of kindergartens, create interesting and diverse pictures with children's participation as the main line, expand children's horizons, promote children's imagination, and let children be influenced by beauty, so as to truly let children feel that kindergartens are civilized campuses, living campuses and happy paradise? Personally, I think we can start to create an environment from the following aspects.
First, the theme wall
The wall layout of kindergarten is not only an ornament, but also depends on and affects the educational content of a season. They should be an inseparable whole.
The arrangement of class theme walls plays a very important role in children's daily activities. It not only plays the role of decorating and beautifying the classroom, but also consolidates children's knowledge, cultivates children's sentiment and cultivates children's thinking logic and aesthetic ability, which is an indispensable and effective way to educate children.
In the construction of wall environment, color and material content are of course important. But the layout of teachers is the most important. Layout is like cooking. Not only must you have good ingredients and skills, but you must also have superb cooking skills to make good dishes with excellent fragrance. Many children's works are well used in layout and can produce various visual effects. For teachers, layout is an artistic creativity. Therefore, teachers should make full use of various layouts in wall layout to enrich children's visual experience and imagination and help them discover the diversity of things.
Second, the parent-child works wall
Parent-child work wall can consolidate children's comprehensive understanding and mastery of teaching contents and knowledge, promote communication between parents and children, implement purposeful and planned educational activities influenced by families, and realize children's learning and parents' participation and guidance, so as to realize the interaction among teachers, parents and children and the mode of family education.
Parent-child works focus on teaching content, and children and parents collect and sort out teaching and learning materials together to make a theme wall, so that the teaching and learning of the theme content can be seen at a glance. It can lead children to explore learning, recall experiences, record findings, sort out the network level of disciplines, and help children learn to learn active learning. Therefore, the parent-child work wall is an indispensable part of the class education environment.
Third, the teaching activity area
The setting of regional activities in kindergartens should cover all aspects of children's harmonious development of body and mind and meet children's activity needs. Generally speaking, there are language area, science area, art area, education area, building area, living area and so on.
(1) Language area: The main function is to develop children's observation ability and language expression ability through observing, operating and posing storybooks, pictures, ornaments and dolls.
The atmosphere in the language area should be quiet and pleasant. Small classes should adopt warm colors such as pink, while middle and large classes should adopt fresh green or quiet blue as the main color. Spread foam cushions on the ground, put soft sofas and pillows, and choose tables and chairs with appropriate heights to let children read comfortably. The arrangement of materials can guide children to collect and publish books independently from small classes. Children in small classes have been able to perceive the one-to-one relationship between things. They can put various simple shapes or animal marks on the bookshelf, and put a mark on the cover corner of each book to guide children to find the corresponding mark and send the books home. In the middle class, children have a sense of category. You can put a label on each floor of the bookcase, and all the books on this floor are labeled with the same label, which can guide children to learn how to put the corresponding labels in different categories. With the enhancement of children's category consciousness, children can be guided to divide books into different categories, such as stories, science, art and so on. And draw different marks on the cover and arrange them according to the marks.
(2) Science Zone: The main function is to cultivate children's interest in scientific exploration and develop children's mathematical ability and hands-on operation ability through various scientific games and mathematical operation activities.
This area can display animal and plant specimens, seeds, minerals and so on. , and put them in a convenient place. Gadgets are essential for children's activities, such as magnifying glasses, telescopes, magnets, thermometers, notebooks and so on.
(3) Art design area: The main function is to cultivate children's hands-on operation ability and the ability to appreciate, express and create beauty through art operation activities such as tearing, pasting, cutting, drawing, pinching and doing.
Materials should be classified into brushes, scissors, glue sticks and other small objects, neat and beautiful, convenient for children to take; It can also be classified by color, which greatly improves children's perception of color; The area that can also be displayed by function classification can be called "sticker painting", and the required materials are classified and placed according to the specific division requirements, thus avoiding the confusion caused by children's "looking for materials everywhere". Some materials are often knotted together, which is inconvenient for children to take. You can prepare a sieve or basket to solve the problem easily.
(4) Puzzle area: an area that mainly helps children discover, understand and explore. Different materials and children's operation methods allow children to gain different knowledge and experience in the process of activities. You can choose the following teaching materials for delivery.
First, sensory training
The operating materials are mainly used to train children's fine movements and cultivate their hand-eye coordination ability.
B, sense of space
This kind of operating materials mainly trains children's cognition of space and understanding of concepts such as position, direction, size and distance of objective things.
C, geometric cognition
This kind of material is mainly about the cognition of the shape of objective things, helping children to distinguish various objects in the surrounding world and laying the foundation for learning geometric figures in the future.
D, quantitative learning
This kind of materials mainly expose children to the concepts of numbers and quantities, understand the different uses of numbers, and learn to use numbers to solve some practical problems in life; At the same time, stimulate interest in numbers and cultivate children's emotional attitude of actively paying attention to things around them.
