What is the necessity of mental health education for primary school students?
Pupils are in psychological development. In general, their psychological development is normal and healthy. However, due to the limitation of cognitive level and the development of psychological adjustment ability, it is often impossible to correctly understand and understand various natural and social phenomena, and to correctly handle the relationship with parents, teachers and classmates and the difficulties encountered in learning, resulting in psychological confusion and abnormal emotions such as tension, anxiety and trouble. Therefore, we should not take it lightly. We must strengthen the mental health education and consultation for primary school students, eliminate the breeding of their psychological problems, promote the development of their good psychological quality and improve their mental health level. Based on my own teaching experience, I briefly analyzed the importance of mental health education for primary school students.

First, strengthening the mental health education of primary school students is the need of the current social change period.

With the further development of reform and opening up, some changes caused by social changes or some factors that are inevitably bred temporarily have a negative impact on the psychological state of teenagers.

From the family point of view, parents' moral cultivation, education level, education methods and family environment conditions have a direct and significant impact on students' moral and psychological growth, not to mention "single-parent families" and "problem families". Therefore, improper family education is one of the important reasons for children's psychological problems.

From the school's point of view, fierce competition for further studies, one-sided pursuit of enrollment rate, frequent examinations, students' scores ranking, and improper teachers' educational behavior may all lead students to fall into an unbalanced state such as tension, anxiety, worry and depression.

From the social point of view, there are some negative influences in society, such as pornography, violence, illegal video game halls, illegal internet cafes, etc. It has caused bad stimulation to young people. Therefore, it is particularly important to strengthen students' mental health education, understand the society with a healthy attitude and adjust themselves.

Two, students' mental health education is an important work to implement quality education.

Today's children are more nervous about study and work than those decades ago. At the same time, they have to face many negative social, family and moral phenomena, which will hurt their children psychologically. Especially the parents of many only children, give whatever they want materially; Excessive protection and interference in life; Pay too much attention to grades in learning, but ignore children's psychological needs. This situation will lead to the formation of children's bad personality, which in turn will lead to psychological barriers. Therefore, mental health education has become a routine task for teachers, which reflects the question of whether quality education can be really implemented.

Many parents are too eager for grades and are afraid that their children will fail in the exam. After their children finish the homework assigned by the teacher, they will be given a lot of homework. Other parents are eager for their children to succeed in life. In addition to learning tasks, they also force children to learn art, calligraphy, instrumental music and so on. Regardless of their own interests, they place many unrealistic expectations on their children; Some parents compare their children's scores with each other. The long and arduous competition has brought great psychological pressure to the children, which leads to physical and mental fatigue of the students. Some students always fail in their academic performance. Some of them feel inferior to others because of their inferiority. They think that parents and teachers are poor students, and they feel abandoned. They prefer being alone to communicating with others. They feel that they can't lift their heads in front of others and can't do anything, which also leads to a negative treatment of learning. There is a little girl in my class. She is so slow that she will never finish her homework. Because of her parents' impatience, she developed freely and her grades once declined. I called my parents in, first educating them not to neglect their children, telling them that their children are not mentally ill, but only slow-witted, and they should be encouraged to get rid of bad habits. Then I said to the students, "You can do it, I believe you!" " "I told her the advantages and disadvantages of learning, which made her have confidence in herself. Thanks to the efforts of her parents and herself, she can basically finish her homework at school now, and she has a strong interest in learning and keeps good grades.

It can be seen that mental health education for students is conducive to students' better learning of cultural knowledge in various subjects and making them love learning.

Thirdly, mental health education for students can improve interpersonal relationships.

At present, most primary school students are only children, and they are faced with adults at home. Adults are used to accommodating their children, so they often accommodate their wayward, overbearing and self. For example, the students in my class often fight over a trivial matter, which is actually a trivial matter to ask. After understanding, it is found that most of the students in the class are only children, accustomed to being accommodated by the elders at home, and formed a "self-centered" attitude, which is not suitable for entering the school to live a collective life. In order to get rid of students' bad behavior, I reasoned with them many times at class meetings, conducted several collective activities, such as collective cooperation in cleaning and painting, and also used parent-teacher conferences to educate parents not to let their children be too arbitrary and overbearing at home. After a semester, the students have changed a lot, and the fighting between students has decreased a lot. For example, if a classmate is unwell, other classmates will take care of him; When garbage is found in the classroom, no matter whether it is in the seat or not, it will take the initiative to clean it and so on.

Social communication, be kind to others, and correctly handle the relationship with classmates, parents, teachers and collectives. Through this control, primary school students can improve their communication skills and learn to adjust interpersonal relationships, so that they can study, work and live in a harmonious, comfortable, relaxed and pleasant atmosphere now and in the future.

Four, the implementation of mental health education is to meet the future social demand for talents.

Different times endow talents with different connotations. If ancient society values human physical strength and modern society values human skills, then modern society and future society will pay more and more attention to people's psychological quality. In a more complicated information-based and market-oriented future society, it will be one of the important connotations of talents whether they can handle interpersonal relationships well, whether they have original spirit and pioneering quality, and whether they have strong will and sound emotions. Nowadays, famous enterprises in the United States should not only look at the professional level, but also look at special psychological tests. In the domestic talent market, employers also attach great importance to the mental outlook and psychological quality of talents. "One hundred years, education-oriented. Education is a big plan, and educating people is the foundation. The plan to educate people lies in the heart. "

In short, it is of great significance to strengthen mental health education for primary school students, so that students can understand and master the basic contents of mental health, know what a healthy and unhealthy mental state is, learn to prevent and eliminate various factors that cause mental illness, and cultivate students' awareness and ability of self-knowledge, self-education and self-development, so as to maintain a positive, optimistic and healthy mentality.
