A few days ago, parents paid more and more attention to the Olympic Mathematics course in primary and secondary schools across the country, and it became younger and more utilitarian, which seriously affected children's normal study and development. However, when the suspension of classes has not achieved remarkable results, some kindergartens have actually started the Olympic math class, attracting many parents to flock. Here, Professor Zhao Zhongxin, a family education expert, reminds everyone. When the local education administrative department ordered that primary and secondary schools be forbidden to hold Olympic Mathematics classes and Olympic Games, in a few cities, Olympic Mathematics classes went into kindergartens instead. The whirlwind of Olympic Mathematics blew away the innocence of some primary and middle school students. It seems that preschool children will also go to born to die. In foreign countries, there are also mathematical Olympic competitions, but they are generally held only among middle school students; Only a few students attended. I haven't heard of the Olympic Mathematics Enlightenment Park for preschool children. It is said that the purpose of teaching olympiad mathematics in kindergarten is to make a good connection between the old and the young, guide children to learn mathematics by hand, and easily enter the mathematics kingdom. At first glance, it seems quite reasonable. In fact, this statement is just a cover-up and deception for parents who don't understand mathematics teaching. Kindergarten does not belong to the category of compulsory education. Preschool children jump into Olympic Mathematics training without really learning mathematics, which violates the law of children's psychological development and exceeds the level of children's psychological development. It is a typical example of "encouraging children". Forcing children to learn mathematics knowledge that they can't understand and master at all is like letting children who have just learned to sit stand and children who have just learned to climb run, which disturbs the order of children's psychological development. The result can only be that children are tired of learning, lose their enthusiasm for learning mathematics, and even hurt their body and mind. The study of mathematics begins in primary school, and the study of mathematics common sense in kindergarten is randomly carried out in combination with daily life. I can understand the simple mathematical relations in life, explore things through simple classification, comparison and reasoning, cultivate my interest in learning mathematics, and lay the foundation for formal learning mathematics after entering primary school. Preschool children's thinking, initially intuitive action thinking, developed into concrete image thinking in the middle period, and only in the later period of children did abstract thinking sprout. Children's knowledge learning should also be from shallow to deep, from easy to difficult, from concrete to abstract. However, the contents of the olympiad are generally abstract and difficult to understand. Children can only recite dates and swallow them. In this way, children think that they have mastered mathematics knowledge when they formally study mathematics in primary schools, which reduces their interest and enthusiasm in learning mathematics, and eventually leads to knowing only one, not knowing the other, which is not worth the candle. Qiu Chengtong, a world-famous mathematician in China, once said that a truly outstanding mathematician has a comprehensive interest and understanding of other disciplines except mathematics. Simple Olympic Mathematics training can't cultivate great mathematicians, and they are always used to solving other people's problems instead of discovering them themselves, lacking strong innovation ability. Parents sign up their children to learn Olympic Mathematics in the hope that their children can get advanced education and training. They hope that after entering primary school in the future, their learning starting point will be higher than others and they will be able to take an advantage in the competition of learning. Some math teaching and training in advance may have advantages in a certain period of time, but because this advantage is completely obtained by manpower, it is not naturally formed, that is, there may be some advantages, but it is probably only a temporary advantage and may not be maintained. There is such a study that is very telling. The University of North Carolina did an experiment, which divided 175 children into two groups, one group was brought up by parents according to general conditions; The other group started early education from 3 months. After that, every 15 months, it was found that the IQ of children who received advanced education training was higher than 15 points on average. However, it cannot be concluded that this advantage of early education can be maintained all the time, because some children gradually lose this advantage when they enter the fourth grade of primary school; Parents bring up their children step by step, usually catching up later. This experiment tells us that it is not necessarily a beneficial thing to carry out advanced education and training at will. People who carry out advanced education and training think that if they carry out advanced early education, they will produce talents early. This is just a beautiful wish and guess, which has not been confirmed in fact. A famous psychologist in the former Soviet Union, Lejetz, said: The development of children beyond their own age cannot provide a reliable basis for judging the possibility of their future development; Nor does it rule out the possibility of a leap forward after early underdevelopment. Many facts have proved this. Preschool stage is a critical period for children's physical and mental development. Without necessary training and education, it is not good to let it drift and develop freely. It's now or never. We should seize the opportunity and conduct training and education in time. But you can't go ahead at will, too casually and too ahead. From the short-term immediate effect, it may be good, but the final result may not be satisfactory. Rousseau, a French thinker and educator, said: It is natural to hope that children will look like children before they reach adulthood. If we disturb this order, some fruits will be premature. They will not be full, nor sweet, and will soon rot. In other words, we will produce some young doctors and aging children. I'm afraid no parents are willing to cultivate precocious fruits that are neither plump nor sweet. Parents who want their children to succeed in life are advised to be calm, not to be confused by irresponsible propaganda, and not to let their children bear the cross of life prematurely.
