How to cultivate civilized behavior habits of small class children
There is a proverb in ancient India: "Sowing behavior, harvesting habits; Sowing habits, harvesting character; Sow character and reap fate. " This philosophical proverb reveals to us the importance of cultivating children's good civilized behavior habits. First of all, early childhood has strong plasticity and is easy to accept external influences. Small class is the first stage of children's collective life and an important period for them to form good civilized behavior habits. During this period, they are very sensitive to the surrounding environment, willing to listen to the teachings of adults, good at imitating the actions of adults, easy to accept the influence of various external stimuli and education, and leave deep traces in their brains. Secondly, the cultivation of good civilized behavior habits has an extremely important impact on children's life. As a Nobel Prize winner said: The most important study in my life was completed in kindergarten, where I learned to be polite to others, do my own thing, and help each other among my peers ... These habits beneficial to life were developed from childhood. In the course of one year's research, our garden has a superficial understanding of how to cultivate children's civilized behavior habits. The law of "three characteristics" of small class children's civilized behavior habits is 1. Immature. That is, the sooner you get into the habit, the better. Infant is the initial stage of the formation of his sense of order, and it is also the key period for the formation of various behavioral habits. It is easy to form good habits when you start training at an early age. 2. gradualism. In other words, the formation of habits has a process, which is gradual, from less to more, from low to high, gradually accumulating and gradually shaping. 3. Repeatability. That is, children's good civilized behavior habits often appear repeatedly in the process of formation, with fluctuating behavior and unstable performance. The "ternary" factor affecting the formation of civilized behavior habits of small class children is 1. Concept leading factor. Adults' emphasis on early childhood education directly affects whether children will develop good civilized behavior habits. Whether adults attach importance to it and whether the educational methods are correct is first of all a matter of concept. Children's habit formation needs adults' attention and correct habit formation concepts. 2. Practice exercise factors. All children's behavior habits are formed in daily life, and personal practice is the key to the formation of children's habits. If adults only pay attention to it in thought, but can't cultivate it patiently in life, and children have no personal practical experience, it is impossible to develop good civilized behavior habits. 3. Environmental factors. Everyone is in a certain environment and is always influenced by it. The cultivation of children's civilized habits is closely related to the educational situation of adults, peers, groups and families, and children's civilized behavior is branded with their environment. In the relevant investigation in our garden, 44% people think that children's bad civilized behavior habits are caused by the influence of bad behaviors in the surrounding environment. 66% people think that the consistency of family education requirements is the main reason for children to develop good civilized behavior habits. It can be seen that the influence of environment on children's civilized behavior is profound. "Triple Method" 1 for Cultivating Small Class Children's Civilized Behavior Habits. Emphasize the "hometown consistency" training method, guide parents to change the concept of family education, closely cooperate with kindergarten activities, and simultaneously cultivate small class children's civilized behavior habits at home. Our main methods are: first, let parents know the importance of habit cultivation; Second, let parents know the requirements of various codes of conduct in kindergartens; Third, let parents demonstrate for their children in the process of participating in kindergarten activities. Parents know the importance of habit cultivation, and naturally change the previous thought of "emphasizing learning and neglecting habits"; Knowing the specific requirements of various codes of conduct, parents can also form consistent requirements for children's goals in communication with teachers and children to cooperate with kindergarten education; Parents' participation in activities puts parents in an exemplary position, so that parents can consciously set a good example image in front of their children and play an exemplary role of "setting an example". Being at home is the same as being in the garden. The close cooperation of home makes the cultivation of civilized behavior habits of small children in our garden have a multiplier effect. 2. Emphasize the experience of "life practice" to help children establish good behavior norms and develop civilized habits in their daily lives. Aristotle, an ancient Greek educator, once said, "Habit becomes nature". The key to the cultivation of children's civilized behavior habits lies in daily life practice. Therefore, we choose some stories and nursery rhymes about good behavior habits to guide children to learn and understand in teaching activities. At the same time, we also designed some small games to let children acquire polite expressions in the games. In daily life, we always remind children to use civilized words and deeds and peer interaction to constantly strengthen their civilized behavior in all aspects of kindergarten life. For example, take the initiative to greet teachers and peers when entering the park, know how to be humble when playing with toys, walk up and down the stairs to the right, and say "please, thank you, I'm sorry, it doesn't matter" when interacting with people ... In these specific daily life situations, children gradually learn to abide by various behavioral norms of kindergartens and develop good civilized habits. In addition, we also investigated the family life of "civilized little masters" and put forward civilized words and deeds for the children at home: we will say goodbye to our families when we leave home, help our parents wear slippers at home, say "please" when we ask for help from our parents, don't make unreasonable demands on our parents, wash our hands before and after meals, greet guests when they visit, and don't be picky about food when eating ... In the process of habit formation, it is very important to remind them repeatedly. In daily life, we should always emphasize the norms of various activities and the requirements of words and deeds, and gradually guide children to develop good behavior habits. 3. Pay attention to the role of "taking the lead in demonstrating", encourage children to learn from the role models around them under the influence of the environment, adhere to good behaviors, and develop good habits. As the saying goes: "Those who are near the ink are black, and those who are near the ink are black." Children in small classes are in the strongest period of imitation, and their learning begins with imitation. The exemplary role of teachers and parents is particularly important. In the kindergarten environment, we have arranged a lot of small icons of daily behavior norms, such as small footprints on the stairs, to remind children to go up and down the stairs and walk on the right; Schematic diagram of hand washing in the bathroom to remind children of the correct way to wash their hands; The quiet sign in the nap room reminds children to keep quiet during a nap; The colored lines in front of buckets and water glass holders remind children to wait in line ... In addition, teachers should say hello to children first and demonstrate everything for them first, so that children can learn good behaviors and develop civilized habits in a subtle way. In addition, encouragement and praise is a kind of spiritual nutrition that children need in the process of growing up, and it is also a good way to strengthen good civilized behavior habits. Children like to listen to good words, like to be praised, and know themselves in people's evaluation of him. Where children have good civilized behavior habits, make rapid progress and correct shortcomings, we will use small stickers or other items that children like in time to express encouragement, strengthen children's good behavior and gradually develop good habits. Educator Chen Heqin once said: "It is easy for anyone to be inspired to reform, but it is even harder to be punished to reform." Parents and teachers set an example everywhere, praise and encourage children's good behavior habits in time, and repeatedly strengthen the requirements of various civilized habits in daily life. Children gradually develop good civilized behavior habits under the influence of the environment. The most important thing in habit cultivation is persistence. We have explored a set of cultivation methods of home synchronization, life practice and demonstration encouragement in the research on the cultivation of civilized habits of small class children, and achieved good results.
