First, improve personal moral quality.
As a kindergarten teacher, we should first pay attention to personal moral quality. The psychological quality, work attitude, living habits and manners of kindergarten teachers are a huge and silent education for children, which plays a subtle role all the time. Therefore, kindergarten teachers should pay special attention to their own cultivation.
(1), kindergarten teachers should have a healthy psychological quality and always keep a happy and positive mood. In a sense, a teacher in a bad mood is no less harmful to children's mental health than an infectious disease. For example, there will inevitably be troubles and pains in a person's life, and there is nowhere to vent, and children will become punching bags. However, as teachers, we should be aware of the adverse effects this kind of bad mood will have on children. Therefore, teachers should win the hearts of children. We must have a healthy psychological quality and maintain a stable and good mood, so as to cultivate children's good mood and make children's psychological quality develop healthily.
(2) Preschool teachers should form a good code of conduct. Teachers are engineers of human souls and disseminators of spiritual civilization. Teaching by example is more important than teaching by words. This is an important educational law, especially for early childhood education.
Kalinin, a Soviet educator, once said: Teachers should also have their own behaviors. He should feel that his every move is under the strictest supervision. No one in the world is under such strict supervision. Children stare with dozens of pairs of eyes and know that nothing in the world can perceive the subtle changes of human psychology more subtly, nimbly and sensitively than children's eyes; No one can catch all the smallest things like a child.
Teachers are a mirror of children, and their behavior should be a role model for children. Teachers must do what children are asked to do; Teachers are determined not to do anything that children are asked not to do. For example, teachers ask children to be honest, so they can't lie; Children are required to form civilized habits. Teachers should be polite to people, speak politely and behave dignified. Even if you are not in the teacher's place or in front of the children, you should maintain good civilized habits and maintain the good appearance, demeanor and image of educators at any time and place.
Second, preschool teachers need to be knowledgeable, well-read and versatile.
The work of cultivating talents is extremely complicated and arduous. Preschool teachers should first have extensive cultural and scientific knowledge and extensive manners. Han Yu, a scholar in the Tang Dynasty, said that "a teacher is a teacher, so he preaches, teaches and dispels doubts". The more knowledge a teacher has, the better he can "live" what he teaches. Although preschool teachers are faced with children who have not been wet behind the ears, in order to enlighten children's wisdom, stimulate children's curiosity and promote their healthy physical and mental growth, they constantly encounter some strange problems that often appear in their young minds. Teachers need to have certain knowledge and skills. They want to know everything, whether it is natural science or social science, especially a large number of household appliances enter the home, CD, VCD or even the Internet. What kind of tree is this, teacher? Do Captain Planet and Planetary Man exist? A series of problems should be traced back to the source, which requires teachers to study hard and absorb scientific and cultural knowledge like sponges. If you have profound knowledge, you can give your child the correct scientific knowledge in simple terms, and answer your child and all kinds of questions. To give a child a scoop of water, a teacher needs not only a bucket of water, but also a river of "living water".
Kindergarten teachers should also be versatile. In children's minds, teachers know everything and do everything, which can often arouse children's envy and love, and also help to stimulate children's interest in knowledge. The younger the child is, the higher the requirements, especially in today's rapid development of science and technology. Teachers need to constantly enrich themselves more than people engaged in other occupations. Only by constantly learning and keeping knowledge updated can we keep up with the rapid development of the times. Children need teachers to teach intuitively, comprehensively and interestingly. Usually, you should have the skills of playing, singing, jumping, drawing, speaking and doing, as well as flexible teaching organization. Therefore, kindergarten teachers should constantly strengthen their skills in teaching and become versatile.
Secondly, on the basis of mastering certain professional knowledge and skills, we should pay attention to accumulating teaching experience, actively absorb new scientific and cultural achievements, form good reading habits, update our knowledge, learn to use dialectical materialism and modern educational theory to analyze problems, and study and explore new ways and methods of preschool education. Third, establish a good relationship between teachers and students.
Loving children is the most basic quality of preschool education. Without true love for children, there will be no real education. Educator Sue Chomsky said: "The skill and the whole mystery of education lies in how to care for children." Noble and pure love is the channel between teachers and children, which fully shows that loving children is an important prerequisite for implementing education. On the other hand, love is also an urgent psychological need of children. Establishing a good emotional relationship between education and children can make children have positive and happy emotions and improve their enthusiasm for participating in educational activities. Otherwise, children will not have such a positive and happy mood, and even make a passive response or have rebellious psychology and behavior. Secondly, love every child fairly and selflessly. Parents should not be partial to obedient "smart" and beautiful children, especially the children of employees in the park and the children who help teachers "do things", otherwise they will have a psychological sense of superiority. Children with defective appearance should not be ignored and discriminated against, otherwise, these children will be psychologically scarred and depressed, which will affect their good emotional and personality development. For these children, teachers should give more care and care, be good at tapping their hidden advantages and give encouragement in time. When I was teaching a small class, a child named Xu Peng was born mentally retarded and couldn't speak clearly. In addition, his parents divorced and he was brought up to 4 years old by his grandmother. When he first entered the class, he didn't like to talk. When others are playing games, he always stands by and watches, even if he has to be accompanied by his grandmother in class. The author once inadvertently found that he loved to work, set chairs and collect toys, so he often praised and encouraged him. After half a semester, he not only dared to talk and play games with teachers and children, but also listened to music and recited children's songs, just as Su Chomsky thought. Educational justice means that teachers should have enough spiritual strength to care for every child. Children are very sensitive to whether the teacher's attitude towards them is fair or not. If a teacher divides children into subjective likes and dislikes, he is partial to some children or exaggerates the shortcomings of some children; The teacher's moodiness will cause psychological harm to children to varying degrees.
4. Preschool education requires teachers to have a high degree of consciousness and responsibility.
People's love for the cause is the source of strength for the development of the cause. Only when preschool teachers know the significance of their work to social progress and modernization can they establish a professional outlook, have deep feelings for preschool education, have a strong sense of pride and responsibility, and contribute their knowledge, wisdom and ability to cultivate a new generation of society. Teachers work with children aged 3-6, who are naive and simple. Preschool teachers should not only protect and promote children's physical and mental health, but also guide children to develop morally, intellectually, physically, aesthetically, physically, mentally and professionally. Therefore, kindergarten teachers must strictly demand themselves to stick to their education posts, carry forward the spirit of "bowing their heads and being a willing ox", care for children enthusiastically, take care of children comprehensively and educate them. They must not let their children fall, burn or have unsafe accidents because of their carelessness. They should always stand at the height of their children tomorrow, consider the requirements for their children, spare no effort to help their children make progress, develop their physical strength and intelligence, and form their good behavior habits and habits.
It is true that the labor characteristics of kindergarten teachers determine that they are busy with their children all day, which is both bitter and tiring. In the eyes of some people, being a teacher is worthless, and being a kindergarten teacher is even more worthless. What should we do about "doll king", "pediatrics" and "poor proletarian households"? Preschool teachers should consciously love themselves and show their responsibilities by their earnest work and dedication to society and family. Comrade Zhao Puchu once wrote in a song "Jin Lu Qu": "Young plants thrive and gardeners are happy. A few people know that hard work, staying up late, getting up early, dampness, cold, warmth and essence are all in their hearts. I have tried my best to successfully build tomorrow, and I owe it to today's sweat and sweat. Light and heat are infinite. " Children's growth embodies the hard work of kindergarten teachers everywhere, so people call kindergarten teachers "hard gardeners" and "engineers of human souls"
Five, the current reform of education mechanism, advocating quality education, in the process of preschool teachers' education and teaching, the training of children's thinking should be ahead of schedule. Preschool teachers should do this first.
Our way of thinking is usually repetitive, that is, based on similar problems encountered in the past. People will immediately reflect it in their minds. The first judgment to be made is: How did I solve this problem in my past teaching work? Then choose the most promising method according to experience, and eliminate other defined directions to solve the problem. The reliability of these experience-based steps makes people very conceited about the correctness of the conclusions-this is the so-called "empiricism" imposed on children. Because doing so will make children turn their eyes to the teacher for advice and listen to experience, instead of thinking about how to overcome difficulties. In the long run, children will become narrow-minded and lose their opinions and personality.
It is important to guide children to think in many ways. With creative thinking, you will find as many alternatives as possible. It is important not to be satisfied with traditional knowledge. Someone once asked Einstein, what is the difference between him and ordinary people? Einstein replied that if an ordinary person is asked to look for a needle in a haystack, that person will stop when he finds the needle; He will open the whole haystack and find out all the needles that may be scattered in the grass.
As a kindergarten teacher, repetitive thinking will make your thinking rigid, and you will always think according to your usual way of thinking. The children you educate are also rigid, and teachers can only build cars behind closed doors, let alone improve their quality.
In short, a preschool teacher's words and deeds have a subtle influence on children all the time, and even have a far-reaching impact on their lives. Her social role is irreplaceable by other social occupations. We should recognize the great social mission and glorious duty of preschool teachers, make clear the necessary professional qualities of preschool teachers, truly love preschool children and preschool education, and be an excellent preschool teacher who meets the requirements of the times.
