First of all, set effective goals and update educational concepts.
1, the goal is the direction of efforts and progress.
In primary school, environmental education should pay attention to the initial cultivation of environmental awareness, educate students to start from the dribs and drabs of life, and cultivate simple and deep-rooted environmental awareness through the perception and experience of nature. So my educational goal is: care-knowledge-consciousness-practice. Specifically, concern: we should deepen our personal concern about social and environmental issues and be sensitive to them; Knowledge: have a basic understanding of the overall social environment and its existing problems, especially the marine environment in my hometown; Consciousness: clear the importance of personal protection of the social environment, and have a strong awareness of protecting and improving the environment; Practice: We can take appropriate practical actions to solve individual and social environmental problems and deepen our sense of responsibility and mission to environmental problems.
2. Concept is the navigation mark of educational action.
Teachers' concept of environmental education must have the following points:
(1) Establish a people-oriented concept. In the new curriculum reform, it is mentioned that fully cultivating students' personality development actually requires that education should be people-oriented, and environmental education is no exception. People-oriented environmental education is to fully understand the value of environmental education. We should not only cultivate people according to the requirements of society, but also convey the environmental morality and values needed by society to students, and pay attention to students' self-development and self-improvement.
(2) Establish the concept of all-round development. The focus of environmental education is not only to cultivate students' environmental morality, but also to promote people's all-round development through environmental education; Don't just look at the temporary improvement of his environmental morality, but also look at his long-term development.
(3) Establish the concept of systematic education. We should regard environmental education as a systematic project and implement environmental education in all directions. From the perspective of educators, every faculty member in the school is an environmental educator, and everyone shoulders the mission of environmental education; From the content of environmental education, it is required that the content of education should be from low to high and from shallow to deep, so that students' environmental moral level can be continuously improved and deepened.
(4) Establish their own environmental awareness. Teachers should make clear the content requirements of environmental education in teaching materials when making teaching plans, and make plans; Excavate the inherent educational factors in teaching materials, organically combine education and mathematics, and make them integrate; Introduce new achievements in international and domestic environmental protection combined with teaching practice, increase the amount of educational information and make it open; When making lesson plans, we should take into account the environmental education synchronized with knowledge and ability to make it coordinated.
Second, effectively tap teaching materials and infiltrate environmental education.
1, the content of environmental education is clear, and the opportunity of environmental education is effectively grasped.
Infiltrating environmental education in primary school mathematics teaching does not advocate environmental education in every class, only the content suitable for environmental education can play a good role. In order to effectively infiltrate environmental protection education in mathematics classroom, our teachers are required to carefully study the contents of teaching materials and make clear the environmental protection contents, so as to seize the opportunity flexibly and effectively and achieve twice the result with half the effort. Since the new curriculum reform in our school, we have begun to use the new curriculum standard textbooks of People's Education Edition. After collecting, sorting, classifying and studying the environmental factors in volumes one to seven of this textbook, I found that the educational content of protecting ecological balance and loving nature is arranged in each textbook as follows:
Can be environmentally friendly.

5. The per capita arable land in China has decreased from 0. 167 hectares in the early days of the People's Republic of China to 0.08 hectares now, which is less than one third of the world average and ranks 60th in the world.
6. Global population, the fifth national census, the total population of China and the population of provinces.
7. The total land and sea area of the earth.
8. China produces and discards 45 billion pairs of disposable chopsticks every year, and it needs to cut down 25 million trees.
9. A hectare of forest can retain about 32 tons of dust a year and suck out about 85 tons of water from the ground one day.
10, it takes a tree 3 meters high to make 2000 greeting cards; According to the survey, the number of greeting cards from Christmas to Spring Festival in Beijing is more than 30 million each year, which is equivalent to cutting down more than 10 trees.
Environmental behavior
1, solving problems under the background of spring outing
2. Solve the problem in the background of cleaning the classroom.
3. Solve problems in the context of visiting natural museums.
4. Calculation and problem solving based on students' participation in tree planting activities.
5. Solve the problem in the background of students collecting cans and mineral water bottles.
6. Investigate the precipitation in various places and solve the problem of household electricity and water use by statistical methods.
7. Collect waste batteries as the content of calculating and understanding the quantity.
8. Use the environmental protection team to calculate environmental protection actions and solve problems.
9, to save water as the content to solve the problem
10, a practical activity with the theme of saving paper
The above list is a part of environmental education in the primary school mathematics textbook published by People's Education Press. In fact, there are many invisible environmental education contents in textbooks, so I won't list them here.
2. The cultivation of environmental awareness is the most important, and good environmental habits are cultivated from an early age.
As can be seen from the above table, the environmental content infiltrated in the textbooks can be divided into environmental awareness, environmental knowledge and environmental behavior, among which the proportion of environmental awareness is slightly larger, which shows that in primary school mathematics teaching, it is necessary to cultivate students' environmental awareness and edify students with a good environment in order to help students develop good habits of consciously protecting the environment. The new teaching materials are illustrated with pictures and texts, and most of the illustrations contain environmental education contents, such as Our Campus, so that students can see the clean and beautiful environment of the campus. At the same time, students should be educated to care for everything around us, such as one mountain and one water, public facilities, spitting and littering, so as to make our living environment colorful and full of vitality. Let students know that a beautiful campus environment needs to be created by all of us, and it is our unshirkable responsibility to take care of flowers and trees, school buildings, playgrounds and swimming pools.
For another example, the new textbook presents many pictures of animals, and the fifth volume also shows some statistics of endangered and threatened animals in China. Inspire students to protect animals from these data, and let students know that animals are friends of human beings, and it is impossible to have only human beings on the earth. When wild animals are extinct, it is the day when our human beings perish, so we should take good care of the animals around us, especially the wild animals. We should know that pandas are the national treasures of China, such as the Northeast Tiger, the Asian Elephant and the Chinese sturgeon.
3. The "problem-solving" model has been effectively applied, and the awareness of saving resources has gradually penetrated.
It can also be seen from the table that "problem-solving" questions with environmental protection as the background account for a large proportion, which is also because of their strong expressive force and large amount of information. This shows that our teachers should attach importance to environmental education in combination with the teaching of applied problems in teaching. It is very common for students to waste water and paper. Through the teaching of application problems, we can infiltrate the consciousness of saving, thus helping them to establish a correct view of resources. They mistakenly believe that water is inexhaustible. Through environmental education, they realize that water is a valuable natural resource. In addition, the education of saving paper to protect forest resources, marine resources, cultivated land, energy conservation and population awareness can be combined with the teaching of applied problems. Some environmental protection knowledge is inserted into the teaching application questions through reasonable adaptation: the oxygen emission of a tree, the running water of household taps, the growth of carbon dioxide in recent years ... The specific contents are listed in the table.
4, according to the age characteristics of reasonable arrangements, step by step to implement environmental education goals.
From birth to adulthood, children go through a process of physical and psychological development. In this process, each age stage shows some typical characteristics different from other age stages. Therefore, when carrying out environmental education, we should set different goals according to the age characteristics of children, implement environmental education step by step, and gradually improve the requirements. Through the infiltration in the lower grades, students can know and understand the basic knowledge of environmental protection, appreciate the beauty of nature, consciously care for flowers and trees, stimulate aesthetic feeling, and form good habits of caring for the environment, which can be infiltrated by games and other methods; Middle school students can understand and master some necessary environmental knowledge, cultivate strong environmental awareness, participate in some simple practical activities of caring for and protecting the environment, and adopt information infiltration and topic infiltration; For senior students, we can make a preliminary observation, statistics and analysis of the environment by using mathematical knowledge, and put forward reasonable suggestions to solve environmental problems, which can be infiltrated through practical activities and small-scale research.
Third, effective practical activities to improve environmental protection ability
The formation of environmental awareness must rely on students' practice, and it can only be shown in effective practical activities. If you have not been exposed to activities related to coordinating environmental relations, then loving and protecting the environment can only be empty talk. Therefore, we must attach great importance to integrating theory with practice in mathematics teaching, so that students can improve their awareness of environmental protection in mathematics practice and cultivate their ability to solve environmental problems in real life by using their mathematical knowledge.
1, combined with environmental protection festival. With the help of World Environment Day on June 5th and Arbor Day on March 2nd, students realized their desire to participate in environmental protection, raised their awareness of environmental protection and strengthened their love for the environment. At the same time, it also deepened the study of related knowledge of mathematics textbooks.
2, combined with hands-on operation. In teaching, we should pay attention to making the content of environmental education as close as possible to students' daily life, so that students can know how to protect the environment in their daily life. For example, let students know how much garbage we produce every day and how to reduce it; Let students know which wastes we produce are reusable and which are not, and what can be reused should be reused. Guiding students to pay attention to observation, be good at thinking, and make some learning tools with waste, which not only improves teaching efficiency, but also integrates environmental education into mathematics classroom. For example, after the teaching of Graphic Assembly, students can make various graphics with matches, waste paper boards and old desk calendar paper, and assemble them in the practice of assembling graphics; When teaching "Understanding of Cuboid and Cube", students can collect some discarded cuboid medicine boxes, toothpaste boxes, beverage boxes and matchboxes as learning tools before class. When teaching "Understanding of Cylindrical Volume", students can also collect discarded cylindrical tanks as learning tools.
3. Combined with investigation and study. After learning 《 Year Month Day 》, let the students say when Arbor Day is. Why did China designate March 12 as Arbor Day? What are the benefits of planting trees? After the students answered these questions, they asked the students, "Can you name the festivals related to the environment? If you don't know now, you can consult and collect these materials after class and communicate again in the next class. " After class, students learned that besides Arbor Day, there are also Bird-loving Week, World Environment Day and World No Tobacco Day. Students have expanded their knowledge through extracurricular consultation, stimulated their interest in learning mathematics and enhanced their awareness of environmental protection. After teaching Statistics, you can carry out investigation and statistics activities: count the average water consumption and electricity consumption of your home in the first four months of this year, investigate the area of each district in this city, and investigate the population of each district in this city. By observing phenomena, investigating and collecting data, various statistical charts of environmental quality analysis are made, which not only consolidates mathematical knowledge, but also permeates environmental education in time. Students can also be organized to visit their residential areas to learn about the greening situation; Let students receive good environmental education imperceptibly in the activities.
Protecting the environment is a great event that benefits the present and the future. It is very effective to infiltrate environmental education into primary school mathematics classroom teaching, and it is also the need of new curriculum reform and sustainable development of contemporary society. We should actively mobilize students' enthusiasm, base ourselves on green education, make full use of all available educational resources, be good at excavating environmental education factors in primary school mathematics textbooks, and infiltrate environmental education in teaching in a planned and purposeful way, so that students can enhance their environmental awareness and skills while mastering mathematics knowledge and lay the foundation for their lifelong sustainable development.
