Case: I don't go to kindergarten, but read Chinese classics every day.
Ms. Ou's child is 4 years old this year. Her husband, Mr. Qin, said that if children are not sent to kindergarten, kindergarten is a kind of captivity, and children are locked together. Teacher Qin believes that China's traditional culture is the best culture, which pays the most attention to people's moral character, and hopes that children will become virtuous people in traditional culture in the future. Therefore, the child is only 4 years old now, but he has already recited classics such as The University, The Analects of Confucius, Disciples' Rules and Saint Amethyst.
Ms. Ou said that children just wake up naturally every day and then read various classics of Chinese studies. Of course, the child may not understand the meaning of these classics at this stage, but as he grows older, he will understand all kinds of reasons. Because I have read Chinese classics since I was a child, these classics will be deeply embedded in my child's mind, which will be good for him to go to school in the future.
Teacher Qin believes that letting children learn the classics of Chinese studies from an early age is conducive to standardizing conduct, restraining behavior, improving self-cultivation and purifying the soul. So children will become clever, polite, elegant and gentle. In daily life, it is a good way to combine virtue education with one's own behavior with the help of specific scenes, enjoy Chinese studies with children, immerse children in "filial piety, courtesy, diligence, honesty and shame", feel the virtues around them, and gradually improve their conduct. You know, many ancient classics of Chinese studies still apply today.
The reporter learned that six children of Mr. Qin's five friends don't go to kindergarten. They read classics every day and read them through. It is understood that these children are now in grade two, and their grades are not bad, even better than other children of the same age. For example, for elders, he will get up and salute. Therefore, there is not much problem in going to kindergarten or receiving kindergarten education.
Parents: Children can learn by traveling.
According to teacher Qin, their parents not only study Chinese studies every day, but also teach them basic arithmetic at ordinary times. Every year, they stagger the winter and summer holidays and legal holidays to take their children out for a trip. "Reading thousands of books is better than taking Wan Li Road. We will take our children out for a trip to show them the local customs. It is more straightforward and easy to understand than what he simply knows in books. "
Since the child was two years old, Mr. Qin has taken his children to nearly 20 provinces and cities such as Beijing, Shanghai, Yunnan, Guizhou and Shaanxi. He said that children not only gained knowledge through travel, but also learned to undertake and handle some things independently. For example, in Jiuzhaigou Scenic Area, several classic children walked with adults on their backs for nearly a day, and stopped to have a rest when they were tired. Older children also take the initiative to help younger children share the weight of their backpacks. In the hotel, the children discussed various ways to compensate and reduce the loss because they accidentally broke the hotel cup.
Expert:
Education should not be too extreme.
There are also some parents who don't agree with the practice that Mr. Qin and others don't let their children participate in kindergarten learning. These parents believe that it is not necessarily the best choice for children to study classics instead of going to kindergarten. In China, children will participate in institutional education in the future, and they will also go to the society. It is undeniable that Chinese studies are traditional cultures, but Chinese studies also include medicine, drama, calligraphy and painting, astrology and so on. Traditional culture should be multicultural, including collective life. How to integrate into the collective life is a start. There is no conflict between kindergarten life and learning Chinese studies, and this knowledge can be instilled in children's kindergarten stage.
Many parents think that, not to mention the quality of exam-oriented education, at least most people can't escape. Classic reading and sightseeing are not necessarily suitable for every child and every family. At an early age, children don't understand the meaning of classics. If they want to be people who know "filial piety, courtesy, diligence, honesty and shame", they must also be guided by their parents.
Yan Yuanchang, director of Liwan Kindergarten in Nanning, said that without kindergarten education and training, it is difficult for children to adapt to the study and life of primary schools. Therefore, studying in kindergarten has been generally recognized. After entering the kindergarten, children can show their true personality, learning ability and social skills in the collective living environment. Some children behave completely differently at home than in kindergarten, for example, they are willful and bold at home, but timid in kindergarten.
In addition, kindergartens can cultivate children's self-care ability. For example, you should know how to dress, eat, urinate and so on, so that you can get rid of the bad habit of relying too much on your parents at home and learn to take care of yourself. In kindergarten, children also learn to communicate with their peers. A child's character is self-centered. With the growth of age and the change of environment, children gradually know how to play and share with their peers in kindergarten, learn to help others, and make their personality mature. Kindergartens can also prepare for entering primary schools. In this world, children gradually develop some behavioral norms and learning skills such as observing discipline, respecting teachers, cultivating attention, practicing writing and calculating, thus laying the foundation for admission.
