The deeper children understand the purpose and significance of the activity, the stronger their desire to complete the task. During the activity, the more focused they are, the longer they will stay focused. Children in large classes have been able to distinguish right from wrong, and simple explanations are completely acceptable.
From kindergarten to primary school, it is a turning point in life. At this turning point, children often have a lot of discomfort, the most obvious performance is that it is difficult to concentrate in class. Attention should be paid to cultivating children's concentration from an early age, which is conducive to children's adaptation to future study and life. Russian educator ushinski said: "Attention is the only gateway to our hearts, and everything in our consciousness must go through it before it can come in." The bigger the door opens, the more knowledge we learn. If our attention is distracted or unable to concentrate, it is that no matter how clever a person is, knowledge can't get into his brain.
Second, pay attention to teaching the use of toys and cultivate children's concentration.
All novel, bright and varied objects can attract children's attention. Therefore, teachers should pay attention to the use of teaching toys in teaching activities, especially in the case of abstract teaching content. When I first arrived at the Children's Garden, I didn't know enough about it. When preparing lessons, I often take it for granted that everything is simple, so I often neglect to prepare to teach toys. I remember the first time I taught my children to look at pictures "counting blocks" in a big class, I told them the requirements and asked them to look at pictures. As a result, it is conceivable that there are various answers. Now, I deeply realize that children's thinking is vivid, and it is essential to prepare necessary teaching toys in order to attract children to an effective class. In the class of "counting building blocks", I prepared enough cubic building blocks of the same size before class. At the beginning of class, I let the children build blocks freely and see what they found. Then let them build according to the diagram, count how many blocks they used after building, and finally fill in the number of blocks on the homework paper according to the given diagram. I found that in this way, the child's interest has been very good and his attention has been concentrated. Most children have no difficulty in completing the task of filling in the number of blocks. Practice tells me that children's parks should avoid empty talk. To cultivate children's concentration, we must pay attention to the use of church toys.
Third, use stories to train children's listening and cultivate their attention.
Being good at listening and understanding what others mean is an indispensable quality for a person. Learning to listen can not only get information correctly and completely, but also give people the impression of being serious, practical and respectful. I can't help listening when I'm studying at school. I cultivate children's concentration by listening. First, I use stories to cultivate children's concentration. Children like to listen to lively and interesting stories, and when they are fascinated, they will show their concentration and seriousness; When I am happy, I will show a happy expression ... I arrange a story-telling time every Friday afternoon. In order to attract children, I am familiar with and understand the story before telling it, so that my feelings and the characters in the story can produce * * * sounds. When telling a story, I can infect children with strong and sincere feelings and arouse their emotional * * * sounds.
In addition, when analyzing roles, we should also pay attention to the subtle differences between roles, carefully figure out the different personality characteristics of each role, and show different actions, expressions, psychological activities, language characteristics and so on. Onomatopoeic words in the story (such as wind and rain, crying and laughing, etc.) ) as close as possible to the described voice, so as to be fascinating and vivid. When you encounter abstruse sentences when telling a story, you should first tell the original sentence and then "translate" it so that children can understand it. When telling stories to children, we should also pay attention to the speed, pause and sound of the language, so as to achieve cadence, try to avoid language diseases and dialects, and tell stories with a sense of rhythm, so that children can deeply feel the content and artistic beauty of the story. In the process of telling stories, I use questions to stimulate children's thinking, and when it comes to key points, it will come to an abrupt end, causing a short suspense with questions, so that children can guess the next result, or deliberately stop, take a look at the children, pause for a moment, and then talk. In this way, children can highly concentrate on positive thinking and imagination.
As we all know, children's parks are noisy, and sometimes children will make small moves absently and interfere with other children's activities when they encounter activities they don't like. But as soon as I heard that the story was going to be told, the activity room immediately quieted down, and everyone sat up straight with a focused face. If the teacher stops for a while, I'm afraid I can really hear the sound of the needle falling in the activity room. There is a description in Child Psychology: "Psychological experiments tell us that in a better educational environment ... children aged 5 or 6 can concentrate 15 minutes or so. With proper activities and education, children in large classes can keep their attention for 20 minutes. ..... "In order to verify this passage, I observed it when telling a story to my child. I am glad to find that the children in the big class can even keep their attention when listening to the story for more than forty minutes. In this case, other activities carried out by children's parks are generally not very good. According to the characteristics of children, sometimes I organize teaching by telling stories, so that children can attract their attention to activities as soon as they attend class, so that a class has a good start and the effect is good. Secondly, I usually talk to my children about things and ask them only once, without repeating them.
I remember when I was studying psychology at school, the teacher said that if I repeatedly emphasized the same thing or every point in my children's garden, over time, children would get used to hearing the same thing many times before they could hear it clearly, but if they couldn't hear it clearly, the teacher would still speak. Such children will be careless in class after entering primary school. He will feel that the teacher is very annoying and wordy, and it doesn't matter whether he listens to the class or not. Anyway, the teacher will still talk and gradually develop the bad habit of not paying attention. Sometimes, I will ask my child before I speak, that is, I must repeat what the teacher said after listening to it, so as to train my child's concentration.
Fourth, develop rich games and cultivate children's concentration in games.
Therefore, when carrying out education and teaching activities in children's parks, we should pay attention to the ways that children are interested in. Games are children's favorite form of activity. I pay attention to games in education and teaching activities to cultivate children's concentration. For example, when organizing children to learn "interesting mathematics", I always use games to teach, do subtraction and play "bowling" games, divide numbers into "dividing fruits" and "coloring" games, and learn to spend money. Open a supermarket in the classroom. In this way, the children's enthusiasm for class is high and their attention is concentrated. Psychologists in the former Soviet Union once did an experiment: let children put different colors of paper in the same color box under two different activities: playing games and simply completing tasks, and observe the time of children's concentration.
