I also want to talk about children. Because I deal with two children at home every day, I sometimes have to be curious and think about what kind of development laws are hidden in them.
There is a saying: "If you don't read Piaget, you don't read psychology." Thus, Piaget's position in the field of psychology, he is the most famous child psychologist in modern times.
Piaget has a famous saying: "All wisdom comes from action."
For children, especially children aged 0-2, it is particularly important to constantly meet the development of their activities and movements. This is the first stage of children's development, which he calls the perceptual movement stage.
At this time, instead of letting them sit and learn to think and recite abstract knowledge, let them run, jump, climb and roll in a suitable free and safe environment, which is in line with the law of their development.
I remember that when my eldest son 13 months old, early education had risen, and I took him to several kindergartens to play. What impressed me most was that I took him to a kindergarten and entered a class, which was basically filled with children the same age as my eldest son.
Most of them are still wearing diapers and need the help of teachers to change them. When the eldest son first entered, he was attracted by an electronic organ and stayed in front of it for a long time. As for what teachers and children are doing, he has not paid much attention to it.
When the children started their class, the teacher wrote an ancient poem "Jiang Xue" on the blackboard. A group of children over one year old followed the teacher and began to read ancient poems.
I left the kindergarten with my eldest son, who was reading aloud.
I don't have professional knowledge of children's development, but I have a vague feeling that children who have just learned to walk for a long time are sitting in the classroom reading ancient poems that are of little significance to them for the time being. It seems that the style of painting is a bit inconsistent with the law of children's development.
A small thing, but fresh in my memory.
Mechanical learning and meaningful learning are not involved here. Which is more important, accepting learning or discovering learning? Because for different teaching environments and different students, they all have their own advantages and are very important.
Mainly lamenting the importance of understanding the law of children's cognitive development. Of course, according to his theory, with the development of children, they will go through other stages successively. They are pre-operation stage (2-7 years old), specific operation stage (7,8-11,12 years old) and formal operation stage. Each development stage has its own characteristics.
It is true that they learned these ancient poems in kindergarten for about a few years, but they can learn them in a few months at the right school age. And what about the precious time that was originally used to carry out activities?
Now I study Piaget's research on the law of children's development, and I see that he is talking about not only the actions in specific activities, but all the actions between self and object.
Things, including things and people. So parents and other family members can also be children's objects.
Children's stumbling from birth to growth and interaction with parents and families are all processes of internal expansion, action development and wisdom formation.
Therefore, it is very beneficial to provide children with rich object environment and object relationship.
This is a great inspiration to me.
From their constant exploration and realization of inner desires, we can see that children are interested in the world. When they are understood and satisfied, their level will spiral up at a critical period.
The eldest son still likes to make all kinds of small crafts and objects by hand. The younger son also likes to start work and create all kinds of "chaos" in the kitchen.
I remember the proprietress of the beauty shop mentioned that when her children were doodling, they could continue to draw on the wall with mosquito-repellent incense even if they didn't have a pen.
Children are still so energetic without support. What if they can get proper support?
