Life-oriented education methods of mathematics in kindergartens 1. Randomly infiltrate mathematics education into all aspects of children's daily activities.
Tao Xingzhi's life education theory? Put forward:? Life is education? Teaching, learning, doing and integration? The theory of life education emphasizes that education should be included in children's lives, so that life always contains the meaning of education.
The development of mathematics education is not only a math collective activity once or twice a week, but also a random infiltration of mathematics education into all aspects of children's daily activities, such as: students on duty at lunch, biscuits when eating snacks, games with deformed biscuits, reverse order when washing hands in line, positive order when walking, etc. In the process of collecting activity materials after game activities, guide children to perceive the concepts of collection and classification. Integrate mathematics education into children's daily activities, let children start from familiar real life, let children find mathematics in things around them, learn mathematics through things around them, and apply mathematics knowledge to their own lives.
Second, pay attention to the interaction with the environment and region.
Everything around us exists in its specific shape, size, quantity and direction. As long as you have a heart, you can find mathematical materials in your life. Make full use of all the activity places in the park to stimulate children's multi-sensory mathematical inquiry activities. Through the interaction with the environment, we can promote children's thinking development and develop their digital concepts.
1. Activity room: Make full use of indoor walls to become interactive walls, with activity materials below for children to choose to operate when they are free to move.
2. Outdoor ceramic tile wall: Use the remaining sponge paper and cardboard on the decorative wall to cut out various graphics and paste them for children. At first, the children just pasted various graphics on the wall to play, and then under the guidance of the teacher, according to the characteristics of graphics, they began to collage, sort, classify, compare sizes and add and subtract purposefully and thematically.
3. Class activity corner: The opening of class mathematics activity corner broadens the excavation and cultivation of children's mathematics ability outside teaching activities. In the content, material setting and transmission of the math corner, it remains relatively stable and constantly updated to meet the needs of children with different abilities.
4. Stairs: We designed numbers, pictures and corresponding dots in various colors on the stairs, so that children can consciously or unconsciously perceive the order, ordinal number, adjacent number of numbers and the corresponding relationship between numbers and quantities. At the same time, the knowledge of geometry and ordering according to the law is also integrated into it, so that children can increase their knowledge and cultivate their observation ability in the process of going in and out and going up and down the stairs.
Third, invest in innovative materials and carry out colorful mathematical operations and game activities.
Piaget thinks? For children, knowledge of logic and mathematics is not acquired from the subject itself, but discovered through interaction with materials? . Attach importance to the transfer of activity materials, and transform all kinds of articles closely related to children's lives into materials for children to carry out mathematical activities.
By providing different kinds of materials with different difficulty and complexity, every child can use the materials easily and creatively, and let the children choose to explore according to their own wishes, so as to truly achieve the goal of self-development. Such as sorting, solitaire, size comparison, adding and subtracting according to the patterns and numbers of playing cards: stacking bottles and cans, recognizing shapes, distinguishing sizes and comparing heights; Use the seeds and beans in life to sort out various laws. In the manipulation of this kind of living material, children show a strong desire to explore, get unlimited fun, and unconsciously gain rich mathematical knowledge experience.
Fourth, boldly practice life-oriented situational teaching.
The outline points out:? Science education should be closely linked with children's real life? . In the teaching process, the life situation is reproduced in a simulated way, and mathematics knowledge is integrated into it, so that children can learn mathematics in the created life situation. The younger the child is, the more obvious this situation is, so it is necessary to strengthen the connection between learning content and learning process and the real world.
Middle class? Learn to count backwards and count backwards? Yes In activities, we use activities in life. Traffic lights, countdown? Association, in the sequence and reciprocal, intuitively perceives and discovers the sequence law of numbers.
In the series of activities of "watching movies", by simulating the internal environment of the cinema, children can learn ordinal numbers and secondary correspondence, as well as mathematical activities of odd and even numbers and inverse numbers by using movie tickets, so that they can perceive and master mathematical knowledge in a pleasant game atmosphere and have a deeper understanding of our life scenes. Learn to use numbers to solve some practical problems in life and experience the fun of activities!
Tao Xingzhi also pointed out:? Children should be allowed to go into nature to observe and see the facts, learn through operation in activities, and give full play to children's creativity. Teachers should teach in the process of children's activities? .
In the theme activity of "Beautiful Autumn", combined with the social practice activities carried out by our park, we will carry out the activity of "Let's go for an autumn tour" and design? Are you going by bus? Plot, guide children to learn to watch? Road map? , compare the length of the route and the number of superposition results to find out the most suitable bus route recently; Buy? Tickets? In the activity link, consolidate the grouping and division of numbers and practice the addition and subtraction of numbers. Life-oriented situational teaching can help children learn to pay more attention to mathematics in their lives, which is helpful to cultivate their ability to solve practical problems by using mathematical knowledge.
Children's mathematics education activities, from the initial standardized classroom teaching to today's emphasis on creating open and free activity space, emphasizing children's dominant position, paying attention to children's active participation and diversified independent activities. ? Mathematics comes from life and will eventually return to life? This famous saying fully emphasizes the ultimate goal of mathematics education-to find and solve practical problems in life with mathematical viewpoints and methods that children can understand.
