Waste items can be seen everywhere in our lives, such as newspapers, old calendars, milk boxes, waste bottles and so on. They often end up in rubbish. This is not only a waste, but also an environmental problem. Why not "turn waste into treasure" and guide children to re-create with waste? So, we thought of the theme of "super change".

The cherry blossom class is the next semester of the big class. At present, the children in this class are about 5 years old, which is a stage full of curiosity and imagination. There are all kinds of ideas about making things. At the same time, the cherry blossom class is a Japanese-style education class, which usually pays great attention to cultivating children's practical ability. They are imaginative and diligent. It is worth mentioning that the parents of the cherry blossom class have been very cooperative with the class work. More willing to help teachers complete garbage collection.

We hope to cultivate children's hands-on ability, brain ability, innovation ability and coordination ability through such activities. And through the use of waste materials collection, waste materials production and other activities, establish a correct awareness of environmental protection from an early age.

Second, the implementation of the theme

The implementation of "super reform" is divided into three stages, which are carried out in the tenth week, the twelfth week and the fourteenth week respectively. In the tenth week, we collect waste first. We posted "class help" in the class notice column. Collect old newspapers, milk cartons, bottles and boxes that are not needed at home from parents. Children are also invited to pay attention to the collection during the class meeting. Pay attention to cultivating their awareness of environmental protection. At the same time, simple newspaper production began.

The main contents of the tenth week's activities

As can be seen from the table, collecting toys and sorting out waste items are things that children don't like very much. Because it's not that children can't clean up, but that when they clean up toys, there is a general "I didn't do it" mentality. "I didn't bring it." Therefore, teachers should pay attention to guide them in this respect.

The main contents of the activities in the twelfth week

(depending on the waste collected)

As can be seen from the table, they have just started reading and writing, and it seems that they are not interested in this, and they have a taste of completing the task. The reason lies in the teacher's psychology of seeking success. Teach Chinese characters directly at first, without training strokes first. If dogs can familiarize children with the stroke order first, it may be more interesting for children to play games. At the same time, the production of combination items began this week.

In the activities, some are produced by children themselves, and some are produced by teachers. For example, "newspaper clothes" are generated by children themselves: one day, I used newspapers to teach children to make hats. After everyone has a hat, Wu said to him, "It is not enough to have a hat. We want to make clothes with hats! " "Immediately, children took out wide tape and scissors to take action, and I joined them.

"The making of doll tables and chairs" is generated by the teacher: there is a doll's house in this class, but we can't find a table and chair of just the right size at the moment. I asked the children, "What if there are no desks and chairs in the doll's house?" "Let's think of some way to together! "We tried several different methods. Finally, the children used a large box of Prince's milk, which was filled with empty bottles of Prince's milk, and then reported a layer of wrapping paper on the outside of the box, so the "Sakura brand desk and chair" was successfully made. Since then, the doll products of the cherry blossom class have been made by children themselves.

The main contents of the fourteenth week's activities

(depending on the waste collected)

In these two weeks, the children's interest and ability in making have made great progress. Girls began to copy "delicious food" from "Hamburg", "Lamian Noodles" and "Tangyuan". Boys, on the other hand, like to be "golden hoops", "guns" and "binoculars". Some children make their own wallets and coins. Children get a strong sense of accomplishment and satisfaction from it, and they also have more desire to express themselves. Therefore, a large-scale comprehensive garbage production activity is "ready to come out" in the collection of various elements.

Third, the activity case analysis

Yinghuashangdian steet

On that day, the children moved freely in groups of three or five. Boys are twisting newspapers into long strips to make "golden hoops", and girls are playing "making clothes" games and drawing pictures. Among them, a group of children are cutting newspapers into small strips with scissors and putting them in plastic bowls, with red and green shredded calendar paper sprinkled on them, which is called "Lamian Noodles, Hunan". After cooking several bowls, they greeted me: "Miss Tang, please come and eat noodles! Here is the Lamian Noodles store, selling Lamian Noodles and Hunan! " I saw bowls of "red pepper and green onion" when I heard the sound, and I really liked it. I picked up one of the bowls and prepared to "eat". At this time, Tian Ying said, "Teacher, you have to give money before you can eat!" " ""Sorry, I have no money on me. ""I'll lend it to you, "said Xin Rui." Thank you. "In this way, I" bought "a bowl of Lamian Noodles from my children. The children in Lamian Noodles's shop made their first deal. They were very interested and immediately started shouting. "To eat noodles? Please buy noodles to eat! "Several girls have pulled out money from their wallets. And several other boys also learned to shout: "come and buy a golden hoop!" """Come and buy a golden hoop!" In this way, in the small classroom, the cries of various "shops" soon came. Cherry blossom street, so hastily kicked off.

The first activity:

Because it was formed immediately, the situation looks a bit chaotic, and many things are selling their "items" loudly. Sell more and buy less. There are not enough coins, only a few girls make them. However, although there are not many customers, everyone still enjoys it. Some children also sell like adults, "Don't miss it when passing by!" ! Everyone has something good! "Children often see adults selling in their daily lives. Children in large classes can appreciate the use of money, and "selling loudly" is the experience accumulated by children at ordinary times. Children happily play the same theme game, which is a valuable experience for them. )

I asked the children, "What do you want to sell?" "Hamburg", "ice cream" and "golden hoop" ... the answers are endless. I took some idle children shopping. In a "booth", the "stall owner" can't wait to promote his products. "Mine is big and good." "Mine is only one dollar!" Unable to resist the temptation, we customers started a "shopping spree". Every time I buy an item, I am deeply moved by the children's jumping eyes.

When making these items, children will incorporate their own ideas into them. When the goods were purchased, the children got praise and affirmation from them, which enhanced their self-confidence. )

Typical performance:

1. Fu Yuchan folded some hats with a newspaper and put them on happily. "I can use newspaper to fold my hat, or I can use newspaper to make clothes." So she and Tian Ying started to discuss while making them: "If you use newspaper to make clothes, you can decide the size yourself!" "It was cool (it was early summer)." We could draw pictures in the newspaper. "In this way, the children discovered the mystery of design.

2. The designer of the telescope is Wu Penghui, who stuck two internal toilet paper tubes together with wide adhesive tape. "I think it's a pity that the usual toilet paper tube is lost. I can make things with it. " Since then, the toilet paper tubes that the cherry blossom class swam through have been taken away by the children. At home, too Not only paper tubes, but also boxes and bottles at home are collected by children. Although they don't quite understand what waste utilization is, protecting the environment and saving resources. But in fact, they did it voluntarily.

The second activity

Two days later, we held the second "Sakura Shop Street" activity. This time the cherry blossom class seems to be much more prepared.

The children raised the question of signboards and said, "All the shops outside have their own signboards, so we should have one!" " "In this way, the children in the cherry blossom class began to make their own signs. There will be ice cream shops, cosmetics shops and banks soon. This time, children from the angel experimental class were invited to act as customers/children, and the activity was named "Sakura Street".

Typical performance:

1. Last time the shopping street started, there was actually no bank. However, it was soon discovered that some children always "borrowed money" from others, while others were unwilling to borrow money. Xie Yibo's mother works in a bank. Usually he has seen her works, so he offered, "I will be a bank, and children who have no money will come to get it!" " He had to work hard with He and earned a lot of "money" with face value of 1 yuan, 2 yuan and 5 yuan, 10 yuan and 100 yuan. Therefore,

The children unconsciously practiced their working attitude in real life in the game. They share their limited common sense with everyone and can think of them actively, because the bank of Sakura Class only "goes out" and does not "enter", but it is the most popular place. However, the problem soon reappeared. There is an endless stream of people withdrawing money, but there are no depositors. There is less and less money in the bank. Therefore, after discussing with the teacher, it was decided that each person can only withdraw money from the "bank" once. In this way, children feel what is "restriction" and what is "regulation".

2. During the activity, the crying of an angel class baby attracted everyone's attention. It turned out that he also wanted to be a "seller", but once said, "You are not in our class, so you can't sell things." So the baby in Angel's class cried. After a while, Chen Zhuo said, "I'm tired of playing. Come and sell me something. " I immediately said, "It's very kind of Chen Zhuo to know how to take care of his younger brother and sister." Hearing this, the children immediately took action and let the baby in Angel's class make their own sales and customers. Through this incident, children began to learn to care about others and know how to look at the problem from the perspective of others. As a teacher, it's really gratifying to see children do this.

Extended activity

In the following days, the cherry blossom class also did the same activities for the children of other big classes. This time, we asked the children to trade in the right way, that is, paying, shopping and changing, thus effectively combining the fields of handcraft and mathematics.

In addition, after the large-scale theme activities, the "McDonald's" of the cherry blossom class is still open. They also introduced "coupons" following McDonald's example. It is very interesting for children to think of various ways to "run" their own shops. I believe that one or two "business predators" will really emerge among these children in the future.

Typical performance:

1. The Wangs said to me, "Miss Tang, please take this." I looked down and found that they had made the coupons themselves. Jiayi went on to say, "If you have coupons, it will be cheaper for you to buy things!" " ! I have advertising awareness at an early age and know how to promote my products in novel ways. Well, it's amazing! )

2. One day, I heard a quarrel from McDonald's, and Yu Fan said, "You got the wrong change! There is another piece! " Quan Rui said, "No! You only gave me 4 yuan! " "But I only bought an ice cream!" "Ice cream is two yuan each." "One yuan!" "The only one in 2 yuan". The last two children asked me together. I told them it was 2 yuan's money, so Yu Fan took his 2 yuan money. It is not difficult to see from this example that children have developed a strong sense of saving. Moreover, you can integrate what you have learned in the past into your life (game)!

In the future promotion activities, the theme of super change will continue to make waste materials on a large scale.

Discovery and reflection:

"Sakura Street" is actually a branch of "Chaobian". Because it is the activity initiated by the children themselves, the enthusiasm of the children to participate is very high, and there are some feelings:

1. Variability of Theme Activities and Plasticity of Children

At the beginning of the activity, it was only used as the theme of waste production. The children also had a good time, but I didn't expect an unexpected incident to turn the whole theme around and embark on the "Sakura Store Street" which combines the production of waste materials with common sense and mathematics. This was unexpected at the time of design, which made me see the variability of theme activities, and the performance of children really surprised me. At first, I thought that turning to this topic was a whim of children and would not last long. In fact, it lasted about three weeks, and the opening of McDonald's has lasted about a month. This changed my view on some aspects of the "three-minute fever" of children in this class. In this theme, the children's performance also showed me their plasticity. They can try to "open a shop" and "run a business" by themselves, and they will also "prepare" by heart (because all props are prepared by themselves, no matter what they sell or buy. This also made me see a kind of "persistence" that exists in children. In addition, the child grew up unconsciously. In fact, during the activity, the children knew all about "addition and subtraction within 10". And these, the teacher did not deliberately force, completely is the "extra surprise" of this activity. Children's "automatic learning" in life surprised me! Sure enough, "life is the best teacher for children."

2. Change the former "teacher-centered" to "child-centered" and believe in children.

Previous activities were often teacher-centered. And this activity teachers gave up this old method, so as to really

Child-centered. In this way, it has achieved completely different effects from the past. If we hadn't followed the trend and continued to pursue the goal of "recycling waste materials and making large toys", the effect might not be better than today. In fact, the success of this activity is based on teachers' "trust" in children. Between teachers and children, children often trust teachers completely. How many teachers can trust children completely? I dare not let the children do it. I firmly hold the initiative in my hand. I don't know how many children's imaginations have been stifled. I believe that today's teacher-child relationship is based on "trust". So, please trust your child and believe that he can do better than you think!

3. "Game learning" through activities

In fact, the process of "paving the street" includes many aspects, including mathematics, common sense, art, production and language. The children exercised their hands and brains, and carried out the most difficult "math training" in the activity, which mobilized the enthusiasm of all children and integrated all kinds of experiences accumulated by children in daily life and shared them with other children. Learning in games may be children's favorite teaching method, which makes children happy and teachers relaxed.

4. Teachers should practice "critical vision"

The spark of children's thoughts is often produced in an instant. Teachers should find it in time and encourage them to use it quickly. Maybe a small event can form a big theme.

5. On the theme of "super change"

In addition to Sakura Shop Street, the activities derived from Super Variety also include three themes: making a doll's house, making pantomime props and large toys. Due to the limited space, I won't state them one by one, but "Sakura Street" is typical. Facts have proved that "Chaobian" and "Sakura Street" are both suitable for large classes, which can exercise children's hands-on and brain skills, imagination and creativity.
