? As the saying goes, "dozens are not as good as winning a prize." But praise for children is not as much as possible. Praise, like taking medicine, has its own time and dose. So, can we get a good educational effect? 1, praise should be directed at things, not people. The purpose of praise is to let children know which behaviors are good, so as to enhance their good behaviors. Therefore, the most important principle of praise is to pay attention to the children's efforts and achievements in something, rather than to the children's personality and themselves. 2. Praise should be timely. Timely praise is just like taking medicine in time when you are sick, which will have a great effect on children. Once children are found to have good behavior, they should be praised in time, which will receive good educational results. 3. Praise children for their little progress. In life, affirming children's little progress is an important means to consolidate children's good behavior and form good study habits. For example, children's things are often thrown away after use. You can ask them to pack their things. As long as the child can tidy up one thing, he should also praise "it's very kind of you to do so, it would be better if you can tidy up other things" in time, so that the child will gradually consolidate his good behavior. 4. Try to avoid praising children in public. Many parents like to praise their children in public, and even let them "perform" in public, thinking that this can enhance their self-confidence. In fact, such praise can easily lead to their tendency of vanity and complacency. Some children who are used to being praised in public will feel wronged if they have a little good performance and are not noticed. Some children even cheat for praise, which is very unfavorable to their growth. 5. Praise in an appropriate way. Children's age, gender, personality and hobbies are different, and the ways of praise are also different. For example, children like their parents' cuddling and caressing, but for older children, a specific gesture, a smile and a look are all ways of praise, and the way of praise varies from person to person. Repeated praise for a long time will also lose its effect, so praise should be innovative. Teachers, male and female, have very different classes. Female teachers can use the special title of female to give children more innocence and romance, while male teachers are different. You can't use gesture language as much as a female teacher, and you can't even praise children with squeaky language. I, a male teacher who just started out, don't have much practical experience, but in specific classroom teaching, when children's excellent talents are displayed, I still can't help but "gaffe". Below I use two specific classroom teaching processes to talk about my "gaffe". The first one is in the new textbook "See Who Draws Better". The most obvious thing about the new curriculum is to show children's life experiences in class. At that time, I designed two more casual links. One is to let students "doodle" boldly and casually. Because the model in the textbook is too standard, it may be a little too restrictive for the children who just entered school, so I advocate that children can doodle. Children are very fresh and interested in this way; The other is to ask students to talk about their feelings when they see Fan Zuo and the children's paintings. Many children have told their feelings. One of them, Yu Jiacheng, saw a picture full of lines and said, "Teacher, after reading this picture, I thought of a sentence in a sketch,' Life is a mess'!" After listening to his answer, I couldn't help clapping my hands, and I couldn't take back the smile on my face. After clapping my hands, I gave him a thumbs-up compliment. The other children are a little puzzled by me because they don't feel this way. Seriously, a child who has just entered the first year of high school can tell this feeling. what do you think? This is my first "gaffe". It also led to my second "gaffe". It was a passage from Rolling Paradise a month later. It is also an "activity class" for students to learn and create in practical experience. Before class, the children prepared round objects such as apples, table tennis and cup lids. As for me, I also brought a ball the size of a fist. In class, the children are active in thinking and imaginative, listing many "circles" in life: the earth, the wheels, the children's faces ... everything is as I expected, and everything goes so smoothly. But when I asked the children why these "round" things roll, a child named Zhu Zhijie suddenly stood up and said, "Teacher, I know that square things roll. A square thing will' roll' down from the mountain. " I was stunned at first, but I immediately understood, but I pretended not to know, as if I was in a hurry, and asked, "Do you know why things from Fang rolled down the mountain, little friend? If you put a square thing on the top of the mountain, will it roll down by itself? " "No," the children looked at me in a hurry and replied in unison, "Yes, that's because our children will only' roll' if they add force to it." Later, I also used the experimental method (poking a pencil in the middle of a square piece of paper and then turning the pencil hard) to tell the children that a square thing is actually round when it "rolls", and the children understood this truth by looking at the experimental stone. Look, art class also has scientific reasons. There is a saying that the waves behind the Yangtze River push the waves ahead. Aren't these lively children in front of me the waves behind me? It seems that our Chihiro really needs to refuel, otherwise Chihiro will be "ashamed" on the beach! Ha ha! Such examples can be seen everywhere in the usual classroom. We are constantly learning and making progress in constant practice, so that our classroom can show more bright spots.
