Garden is a rural central kindergarten. According to the surrounding environment, giving full play to the advantages of rural areas and realizing low-cost and high-quality preschool education are the keys to implement the spirit of the Guiding Outline of Kindergarten Education, promote the curriculum reform of rural preschool education, optimize the quality of preschool education and improve the education and teaching level of rural preschool teachers.
Therefore, according to the new concept of regional activities, combined with the environment of the park, we should tap all available local resources and carry out colorful regional activities with local characteristics, so that every child can develop independently and happily in the activities, which truly embodies the educational thought of "living environment should be used for rural education" advocated by Mr. Tao Xingzhi.
First, the collection of local materials in regional activities pays great attention to the collection of local materials in regional activities, and the collection of materials is mainly through the following channels.
Path 1: collect through children.
The materials of regional activities collected by children are mainly collected through activities such as collection and visits, and the materials collected by children are mainly natural materials.
For example, when spring comes, take children to Zhushan to collect bamboo shells and leaves on the mountain.
Take the children to the stream to pick up stones in summer.
In autumn, guide children to bring back fallen leaves, branches and wild straw to carry out activities, understand autumn and travel in autumn.
At the same time, guide children to collect fruits and seeds, as well as rice ears, wheat stalks, corn husks, various beans, peanut shells, melon shells, happy fruit shells, reeds and other materials that enrich the activity area.
Path 2: Collect through parents.
The information of regional activities collected by parents is mainly produced or provided by parents in the activity area.
For example, in the development process of "Fun Straw Toys" area, parents are encouraged to make straw toys. Many straw toys are made by parents themselves, including straw mats, straw ropes and straw hammers.
Parents are also mobilized to collect a series of materials such as cloth strips, bamboo products, wool and labor tools.
Path 3: Collect through the teacher.
Collecting materials of regional activities through teachers is mainly achieved through teachers themselves and their potential guiding role.
For example, teachers use their spare time to collect and make materials for the activity area.
For example, in the corner of the "fruit baby" area, the teacher collected some wild fruits such as pine cones and knitted materials such as palm leaves in the knitting area.
At the same time, it also guides children and parents to collect materials suitable for the activity area through the role of teachers.
Path 4: through social collection.
Through collecting folk stories, folk songs and other materials from the society, local legends, folk songs, folk games and so on are widely circulated. They are all applied to the activity area, and at the same time, they use the craft level of folk craftsmen to let children know about traditional handicraft production.
Second, the use of local materials in regional activities (1) The use of plant resources The kindergarten has specially opened up a planting area to plant some simple and easy-to-grow vegetables and crops, so that children can understand the growth characteristics of vegetables and crops, understand their growth environment and growth process, and guide them to make observation records.
Teachers also organize children to pick, pick and dig, and lead them to cook and taste vegetables, so that children can not only appreciate the harvest of labor, but also know how to cherish the fruits of labor.
The collected fruits of labor are also displayed in a corner of nature for children to observe, compare, identify and classify. All kinds of seeds, wild fruits, leaves, bamboo, straw and pine cones collected by teachers and children are skillfully used: in the art area, the seeds are labeled with "five senses" to make seed dolls, or the seeds, cores and shells are pasted;
Creative production of vegetables and fruits, shaping some lively and lovely dolls, small animals, small toys and so on.
