With the development of science and technology, McKinsey Institute predicts that in 2030, 400-800 million people around the world will be robbed of their jobs by robots.
Therefore, parents' anxiety can't be blamed. After seeing the development of AI technology, many parents always lament what knowledge their children will learn in the future. Cultivate what ability? In order to stand out in the fierce competition in the future.
English should be a necessary skill, just like driving and computer. If you are still doing synchronous classes and teaching foreign teachers oral English, you are not competitive in the market. What is truly competitive should be to cultivate children who can really use English, and children who can listen, see, read and think in English.
So what kind of English learning mode can achieve this kind of classroom effect?
"Only real reading is the only way to solve the classroom effect in the 4.0 era."
Kids Town children's graded picture book course is a comprehensive English enlightenment course featuring true reading. The course is designed according to ABO principle, and based on IES teaching framework, a real reading course with intensive reading, extensive reading and comprehensive skills is created. Seven curriculum types, OMO mode, provide more effective curriculum guarantee for children.
ABO principle
An A uthentic material has a large number of English graded original books to ensure massive input;
Balanced teaching method combines intensive reading with extensive reading, creating a "real" reading class;
O online-Merge-Offline combines online and offline to meet the needs of the education 4.0 era.
IES is intensive reading+? Extensive reading+? The teaching framework of skills development is helpful to build a complete curriculum scheme of intensive reading+extensive reading+skills.
A whole year? Intensive reading class 50%, extensive reading class 25%, skill class 25%. Intensive reading class, intensive reading, and solid Chinese foundation; Extensive reading classes to promote the application of skills; Skills, especially natural spelling and high-frequency words.
Extensive reading course, skill course and intensive reading course are perfectly matched into a unified system, which is richer and more complete.
The newly upgraded Kids Town children's graded picture book course is the epitome of IES teaching framework!
It can really improve the classroom effect and let children use English!
Kids Town course is a graded picture book reading system for children aged 3-6. * * * is divided into three levels, which lays the foundation for independent reading. It is perfectly designed according to IES teaching framework system.
It mainly includes three main course parts:
Intensive reading class, intensive reading, solid language foundation.
Extensive reading classes promote the application of skills, improve the learning effect through a lot of immersion, and develop reading habits.
Skills, focusing on improving natural spelling and high-frequency words-building decoding ability and breaking through high-frequency words.
These three sections will evolve into seven classes in the specific application of our teaching.
Through intensive reading of graded picture books, extensive reading of children's songs, extensive reading of decoded books, extensive reading of STEAM, natural spelling, high-frequency vocabulary and public display of seven classes, we can create an ideal classroom effect!
What does the intensive reading class learn?
Kids Town course is a comprehensive course with reading as the main line, which adopts scientific grading and language arrangement conforms to the law of children's language development.
Moreover, the themes are diverse, and there are 40 scenes closely related to life. Let children read the whole book with scenes, and naturally they will use relevant scenes and really use language!
For example, in the K 1 stage, there are topics suitable for children aged 3-4, such as playing with water in summer, not being picky about food, greeting, dressing, knowing the body, family and so on.
In K2 stage, it is suitable for children aged 4-5, cultivate good toilet habits, adapt to the arrival of the second child era, and how to get along with younger brothers and sisters.
At the K3 level, the problems of children aged 5-6 will be further upgraded, such as cultivating good hygiene habits, especially during the COVID-19 epidemic this year, children must be taught to wash their hands and bathe frequently to stay away from viruses and bacteria; There are also topics such as scientific exploration.
In addition to K 1, K2, K3, optional topics of 10 are provided for teachers to do special courses and special courses, covering how to manage pocket money and help children cultivate financial quotient from an early age; How to know the world famous paintings and so on, and cultivate children's artistic cells.
In addition, Kids Town children's graded picture book course carries out vivid intensive reading learning from multiple dimensions, which conforms to the learning rules and characteristics of early childhood children and integrates many different learning methods, including picture book reading, classroom games, whiteboard games, creative painting, manual work, rhythmic singing and dancing, etc.
Let the children use the five senses to absorb. At this stage, children's learning tentacles extend infinitely outward. These diverse learning methods can embrace children's tentacles more effectively.
Krashen, a famous educator, devoted his life to the study of second language acquisition. He pointed out that the ideal input should have the following characteristics: intelligibility, interest and relevance, out of grammatical order and enough input.
Extensive reading is the key to ensure full input and comprehensibility!
In order to ensure good use, Kids Town course provides a large number of original materials. Through balanced teaching design and OMO system construction, children can effectively input 65,438+10,000 words in three years!
In order to do extensive reading, most of our institutions are weak now, either just going home to read an R book or not doing extensive reading, so extensive reading is too difficult to implement.
The extensive reading guide of the International Extensive Reading Foundation points out that extensive reading is not optional, but necessary-there must be relevant class hours in the curriculum design. Therefore, extensive reading needs half of the homework done at school, and the other half of the homework gives parents enough material to guide them to do it.
Kids Town course is very rich in extensive reading course design, which is a very big course feature, including children's songs extensive reading course! Decoding reading extensive reading class! STEAM extensive reading course!
Extensive reading of children's songs can stimulate language interest and enhance phonological morpheme awareness.
The extensive reading class of decoding reading materials gives children the opportunity to use natural spelling and consolidate their natural spelling skills.
STEAM extensive reading course improves reading ability and cultivates subject accomplishment.
All extensive reading classes provide standardized schedules and teaching plans, so teachers no longer have to rack their brains to think about how to attend extensive reading classes.
Learning frequency is the key factor to improve input. With systematic study in class, short-term high-frequency study is also needed after class, which can cooperate with home-school study.
Kids Town course adopts OMO system, which combines weekly offline standard courses with weekly online community standard processes, which maximizes the frequency of language learning, increases the amount of language input, and makes it difficult to improve the learning effect.
In addition, the Kids Town course can also be used in conjunction with the online English grading reading platform ReadingPro. * * * 2000+ graded books, including 500+ books that children can get, which is convenient for reading at home anytime and anywhere.
Natural spelling and high-frequency words are two very important skill courses in enlightenment reading! Nowadays, many children's courses are only natural spelling, and there is still one lesson that is not attended, that is, high-frequency words!
Whether you open the school-age picture book at hand or the graded book at the beginning, the frequency of high-frequency words can account for 80-90% of the whole book. Therefore, learning high-frequency words is of great help to improve children's reading speed, accuracy and understanding ability.
Kids Town will catch all the natural spelling classes and high-frequency word classes.
It is worth mentioning that the natural spelling textbooks supporting the Kids Town course are selected from natural spelling books that have occupied Amazon's sales for 20 years in the United States and Bob Books owned by American children.
Bob Books makes it easier for children to get started and cultivate the confidence that "I can read". Interesting illustrations and contents make the natural spelling class no longer boring, and refuse to read or spell. Insist on learning in reading and using it in reading!
Through the original thematic intensive reading picture book, natural spelling skills course, decoding reading extensive reading course and STEAM extensive reading course, students can master more than 700 core words, which exceeds 180 groups of daily conversations, and the reading volume in three years can reach 65,438+10,000 words, reaching the English level of secondary school graduates in public schools, that is to say, helping children solve English learning problems in kindergartens and primary schools.
In addition, the Kids Town course also focuses on cultivating 2 1 century literacy and SEL's social and emotional ability.
Through the content of STEAM teaching, we can cultivate critical thinking, practical ability and interdisciplinary problem-solving ability, thus enhancing students' international competitiveness.
For example, making a robot by recycling materials can not only train students' practical ability, but also cultivate their environmental awareness of rational use of goods. In addition, there are many common materials in life for experiments such as "carbonation reaction" and "water tension".
Self-social emotional learning plays a vital role in children's academic and work achievements. Through the study of social emotional skills,
Children can learn how to manage their emotions and behaviors, how to understand others, develop empathy, cultivate the ability to solve problems, make responsible decisions for themselves and the collective, and develop healthy interpersonal relationships.
For example, letting children know about Braille used by blind people through a warm-hearted story is helpful to cultivate children's empathy and empathy ability.
Good courses and parents' approval are not enough to solve all the problems of an institutional English course.
Everyone also needs adequate support in teaching, scientific research and operation. In this regard, based on the half-step teaching research and development center, Kids Town course can promise "three good" to everyone.
