Today, human society has entered the 2 1 century, with the continuous development of science and technology and the continuous improvement of people's living standards, the environmental problems are becoming more and more serious. Air pollution, climate change, ozone depletion, depletion of tap water resources, species extinction, etc. It is a wake-up call for us after the great trauma of nature. "Environmental protection, education-oriented." The Guiding Outline of Kindergarten Education clearly points out: "On the basis of children's life experience, help children understand the relationship between nature, environment and human life, start from the small things around them, and cultivate initial environmental awareness and behavior." Children are the future and hope of the motherland, and their environmental awareness and behavior will determine the future environmental situation in China. The key point is that environmental education should start with children. Therefore, according to the characteristics of children's age, we change the simple preaching, try to start with "turning waste into treasure", make rational use of existing waste materials, and implement environmental education in one-day activities in kindergartens to further improve the environmental awareness of children, parents and teachers.
Second, the concept definition
"Turning waste into treasure" is to use and "transform" the waste articles in life to make them useful. Carrying out the activity of "turning waste into treasure" in kindergarten is to encourage children to collect all kinds of waste materials in their lives and bring them to kindergarten for teachers and children to use and process together, thus making waste materials a special "teaching toy" in kindergarten.
Third, the theoretical basis
1, the "Guidelines for Kindergarten Education" put forward: "In the environmental education for young children, we should use our brains and try our best to stimulate children's interest by using intuitive images and lively forms that children like." Based on the above theoretical basis, when we educate children about environmental protection, we can stimulate their interest in recycling waste materials by letting them freely create waste materials and playing games with them.
2. Mr. Chen Heqin once said: "Restore the true colors of children's lives, give them the original colors of life, and let them learn in life." When educating children about environmental protection, we pay attention to infiltrating it into their daily lives, such as applying waste materials to morning activities and regional activities, so that children can learn environmental protection knowledge and establish environmental awareness in their lives.
3. Reggio's educational theory: let children interact with the external environment through their own active efforts and constantly gain rich experience, so as to realize self-construction and development. In children's environmental education, we will inspire and guide children to know about waste materials-collect waste materials-use waste materials to create, develop children's innovative ability and improve their environmental awareness.
Fourth, the research objectives:
1. Infiltrate environmental education into all aspects of kindergarten life and education, so that children can have a preliminary understanding of environmental protection, acquire simple and practical environmental protection skills, and encourage children to actively participate in protecting our living environment.
2. Teachers, children and parents * * * collect waste materials and carry out the activity of "turning waste into treasure", so that children can know how to protect the environment, save the limited resources on the earth through the reuse of materials, and enhance environmental awareness in educational activities.
Research methods of verb (abbreviation of verb);
1. Action research method Action research especially emphasizes the participation of practitioners and pays attention to the combination of the research process of the topic and the action process of practitioners. This kind of research requires the personal participation of practitioners and critical reflection on their actual work through research activities. Through the action research method, we can learn from concrete actions, carry out research everywhere and achieve results.
2. Case observation method Case observation method is a method to conduct in-depth and specific research on a single research object. A case study on whether children have environmental awareness in their daily activities. Can we see if he will take the initiative to collect waste after passing the activity? Do you have the creative imagination to use waste products?
3. Experience summary method: Experience summary method is a method to summarize and analyze the specific situation in practical activities, make it systematic and theoretical, and rise to experience. Summarizing and popularizing advanced experience is one of the more effective leadership methods used for a long time in human history.
Research content of intransitive verbs
(A), the use of waste materials to carry out thematic teaching activities, environmental protection should start with children. It is very necessary to carry out environmental education in kindergarten activities, and theme education is a very suitable way of education. Therefore, according to the reality of young children, I have established a series of environmental theme teaching activities.

(2) Using waste materials to develop regional game activity areas is a way to create kindergarten environment, which provides conditions for children to learn independently in regional activities and is also an important prerequisite for teachers to implement activity area teaching. The success of teachers' implementation of regional activities depends largely on the creation of regional activity environment and the input of various activity materials.
(3) Using waste materials for outdoor sports is one of children's favorite activities. The new "Outline" points out that various interesting sports activities, especially outdoor and natural activities, should be carried out to cultivate children's enthusiasm for taking part in physical exercise and improve their adaptability to the environment. Then, as a kindergarten teacher, how to carry out various interesting sports activities, I think, sports equipment is a very important aspect. Usually, kindergartens will buy many different types of sports equipment for children to exercise. In order to enrich children's activities and save kindergarten's expenses on equipment, we fully collect waste materials and make various environmental protection outdoor sports equipment according to local conditions. Diversified sports equipment and diversified ways of playing have stimulated children's interest in participating in sports activities and met their exploration needs.
(4) Using waste materials to carry out characteristic activities in kindergartens is not only a slogan and a topic, but also a systematic science, a kind of consciousness, an idea and a way of life. Environmental protection requires not only the government, experts and scholars, but also the extensive participation of the public. And our next generation, children, need to have a strong sense of environmental protection, so it is imperative to educate children on environmental protection from an early age. In view of this importance, we continue to carry out some activities with environmental protection characteristics. In this activity, teachers strongly advocate the use of waste materials around them and encourage children to exert their imagination and strength.
(5) It is very important and indispensable to use waste materials to carry out parent-child activities in kindergartens. The Outline clearly points out: "Family is an important partner of kindergarten."

Seven. Research measures
1, based on the garden, pay attention to the surrounding environment. There is only one earth, and the campus is the closest small environment to us. Caring for the earth starts with caring for and being close to our campus. So, can teachers show their children the garbage on campus every day? Pick up the garbage around you and other activities, and subtly establish the awareness of protecting the environment. 2, entertaining, linking teaching with environmental protection 1, using intuitive objects and pictures to enrich children's knowledge. Packaging bags can be seen everywhere after children eat snacks, and garbage plastic bags are flying all over the sky, so children can't put down used batteries. In view of this situation, we introduce the ways and types of waste to children through lectures, stories, videos, homemade jingles and other forms, so that they can understand the role and harm of waste, thus enriching children's knowledge, broadening their horizons, further mobilizing children's enthusiasm for exploring waste, and letting them talk, learn and do it tirelessly, paving the way for kindergartens to set up waste recycling centers.
