In recent years, with people's demand for economic benefits, the ecological environment has been greatly destroyed, and problems such as resource shortage, energy shortage and environmental pollution have attracted extensive attention from academic circles and governments all over the world.
Environmental education should start with dolls. Starting from 200 1, the "Guidelines for Kindergarten Education (Trial)" issued by China clearly puts forward that children should know the relationship between nature, environment and human life on the basis of experiencing life, and start with small things such as life and behavior to cultivate their environmental awareness.
Therefore, in the critical period of the formation of children's consciousness at the age of 3-6, kindergartens should do a good job in environmental education to lay the foundation for the improvement of children's environmental quality and lifelong development after they grow up.
Optimization strategy of environmental education practice in kindergartens
(A) clear kindergarten environmental education objectives
At present, kindergarten environmental education still permeates the overall goal of preschool education, lacking clear environmental education goals. Therefore, most kindergartens understand environmental education as the creation of environment, the popularization of environmental knowledge and the simple cultivation of children's environmental behavior habits, while ignoring the concern for children's emotion and humanistic spirit.
(B) Enrich the teaching methods and contents of environmental education
In addition to traditional teaching methods such as collective teaching and oral preaching, kindergartens should also make full use of infiltration and integration, outdoor activities, situational teaching methods and cooperative methods to fully carry out environmental education according to children's psychological and growth characteristics.
(C) Construction and practice of kindergarten-based curriculum of environmental education
First of all, the construction of kindergarten-based environment should be based on the actual situation of kindergartens, including the internal environment and greening and beautification of kindergartens, the natural environment, social environment and artificial environment of kindergarten communities and their surrounding areas.
