When history enters 2 1 century, when human beings go into space to look after the earth, they are surprised to find themselves at a very severe critical juncture: population expansion, desert spread, forest decline, water pollution, acid rain, garbage disaster, ozone layer destruction, greenhouse effect intensification, and rare animals are on the verge of extinction ... Human beings have faced such severe challenges, and environmental protection has increasingly become the focus of global attention. To do a good job in environmental protection, we must first do a good job in environmental education, which has become everyone's consensus. As a kindergarten teacher, it is our unshirkable responsibility to educate children on environmental protection and advocate "protecting the environment, starting from childhood and starting from me". However, environmental education should not only be a matter for kindergartens and schools, but also for every family and every parent. So, how to educate children about environmental protection? 1. Let children get close to nature and stimulate their love for nature; Children acquire knowledge and form concepts by interacting with people and things in the environment. The vibrant scene of nature is a natural classroom for children to carry out environmental education, and children's understanding of nature is based on their love for nature. The deeper you love, the deeper you understand. Therefore, in environmental education, attention should be paid to stimulating children's love for nature and sprouting their feelings and wishes of caring for and caring for the environment. For example, organize children to watch TV videos such as Exploring the World and Animal World; Take the opportunity of spring outing and autumn outing to lead children into nature, and explain to them while playing, so that children can appreciate the beauty of nature, understand the mysteries of nature, and understand the surrounding environment and its close relationship with people, animals and plants, thus arousing children's love for nature and cultivating their love for animals, flowers and trees. In addition, letting children get close to nature independently fully embodies the practical and intuitive principles of education, enriches children's direct experience and enables them to truly understand the meaning of what they have learned. 2. Help children to establish awareness of protecting the environment; In order to make children form a certain awareness of environmental protection, environmental education for children must proceed from the actual situation of children, select some contents, examples and environments that are easy to understand and accept and close to children's real life, and help children form a correct environmental morality. Method 1: Let children participate in the management of plant corners. By contacting and managing natural corners, children can observe the growth process of animals and plants, further understand the relationship between animals and plants and people, and make their various senses work. For example, when spring comes, the teacher raises some tadpoles in the natural corner. The children are curious and excited. They often tease them around the fish tank and have fun. When the tadpole grew into a frog, the children were very excited. They all shouted happily, "The tadpole grew into a big frog, a big frog!" " At this time, we will take the opportunity to educate our children to protect frogs and beneficial insects. The effect received at this time is far better than the teacher's indoctrination over and over again. Method 2: lead children to experience it personally and strengthen environmental awareness. Organize children to visit and feel the beautiful natural environment of green mountains and green waters near the kindergarten and the polluted environment with garbage everywhere and thick smoke, so that children can understand the importance of protecting the environment through personal experience. You can also carry out some small experiments, such as preparing two identical goldfish, keeping them in two fish tanks filled with clean water and sewage respectively, and recording the growth of goldfish with simple words or patterns to arouse children's awareness of environmental protection from the experiments. Games are children's favorite activities, and teachers can choose some games suitable for children's age for environmental education. For example, a "breathing tree" can only breathe under the "tree" by replacing the tree with a chair. With the decrease of "trees", children will find it more and more difficult to breathe during the game. Let children know the importance of planting trees and protecting tree resources through this game, and realize the importance of protecting the environment. Let children know about environmental problems in a vivid and interesting way, let them know what are the good and bad environmental events that they can contact at ordinary times, and strengthen their environmental awareness. 3. Gradually develop the behavior habit of protecting the environment. Mr. Chen Heqin once said: Nine tenths of human behaviors are habits, and most of these habits were formed in childhood, so we should pay special attention to the cultivation of childhood habits. Therefore, it is very important to help children form good environmental habits. First of all, we must understand that children learn mainly by imitation, and what adults say and do has a subtle influence on children. Therefore, parents and teachers should have a strong sense of crisis, responsibility and clear awareness of environmental protection, and never do anything harmful to the environment (such as climbing flowers and trees and littering). ), and set a good example for children from small things. Secondly, children can be educated on environmental protection with the help of their favorite TV programs and children's literature works. For example, the TV cartoon "Captain Planet and Planet Man" and the children's story "Monkey's Home" are all good teaching materials for children's environmental education. Besides, the annual "World Environment Day" is the best opportunity to educate children. It is also necessary to explain those posters to children and let them know some basic knowledge of environmental protection. Thirdly, to cultivate children's environmental behavior habits, we should take children's current development level and interest as the basis, promote children's active participation as the starting point, stimulate children's motivation, take emotion as the driving force, and let children acquire knowledge and ability and implement them in corresponding behaviors. We should consciously guide children's daily behaviors, help them strengthen behaviors that are beneficial to the environment, make these behaviors gradually become children's natural behaviors, and gradually cultivate good habits of caring for the environment. Through the above discussion on children's environmental education, I hope all educators can deeply realize that environmental awareness is an important civic awareness, not only for ourselves, but also for our young citizens-children. Today's children are the masters of the 2 1 century and the founders of the future world. Whether they can arouse their awareness of environmental protection will be related to whether our next generation can have a real green home. This is of far-reaching significance to nature and human beings. How to educate students about environmental protection is not an isolated part of school education. It is integrated into the classroom teaching and colorful activities of the Young Pioneers, and is also closely related to family edification and social environment. How to implement students' environmental education? We tried it from the following channels. First, unblock the main channel of classroom teaching 1. At the beginning of the semester, the school environmental education leading group drew up a feasible Environmental Education Implementation Plan. Teachers of related disciplines listed the texts and chapters suitable for environmental education in tables, and the Guidance Office drew up a comprehensive environmental education schedule for this discipline, which was convenient for the supervision and inspection of teachers' lesson preparation and teaching during the semester, and constituted a network for the implementation of classroom environmental education. The school takes teachers of common sense, thinking and Chinese as the main body, and teachers of other disciplines participate together to carry out multi-level and multi-form classroom teaching in class. Such as how to protect nature, air pollution and protection, amphibians and so on. In the common sense section; There is a paradise for birds in Chinese, and there is only one earth. How did the Yellow River come into being? Protecting our environment is an excellent teaching material for infiltrating environmental education. In order to learn from each other's experience, learn from each other's strengths and stimulate teachers' enthusiasm for environmental education, the school is jointly organized by the guidance office and the trade union group to infiltrate environmental education into the "segment competition class". 2. Offering "interactive" environmental education courses. We will distribute the trial textbooks to the students in the pilot class and incorporate them into the curriculum for teaching. We arranged three classes in junior, middle and senior grades of the whole school as pilot classes to carry out "interactive" environmental education. The textbook is illustrated and illustrated, and students are willing to accept it. Through the teaching of "who eats who", "precious resources", "disposable goods", "garbage classification" and "green shop opening", students' knowledge of environmental protection has been enriched, which will undoubtedly play an important role in children's future life practice. This semester's interactive environmental education course is undertaken by the principal, group counselor and nature teacher. After our exploration, this team of teachers will be expanded to take turns to stand guard. Through teaching, students will not only enrich their knowledge of environmental protection, but also more teachers will make new attempts and gradually enhance their awareness of environmental protection. Second, unblock the channels for the activities of the Young Pioneers In order to do a good job in environmental education in schools, we use the Young Pioneers organization as a carrier to enlighten children's environmental awareness and cultivate their environmental protection skills. Red scarf radio station uses current affairs classes to give lectures on environmental protection knowledge every week; Carrying out environmental education by "speaking under the national flag"; At least one environmental blackboard newspaper and team corner are published every semester, and the team newspaper and publicity window are used to publicize environmental changes and civilized development. We pay attention to the diversity of environmental education methods. The school held a speech contest, an environmental handwritten newspaper contest, a blackboard newspaper contest, an environmental knowledge contest, a poetry recital and a potted flower contest. Outside the school, team members are encouraged to plant a tree and raise a pot of flowers in "3 12". In order to make students acquire more knowledge about environmental protection, the environmental protection leading group recommends TV programs, newspapers and magazines to students, such as watching news and "Man and Nature" programs every night. The school subscribes to a newspaper about the environment for each squadron, or concentrates on studying or reading each other. In order to broaden students' horizons, we bought a batch of books about environmental knowledge for students to read and take notes in the reading room. The vigorous development of environmental education has promoted the development of Young Pioneers' work, enriched the contents of Young Pioneers' activities, injected new vitality into Young Pioneers' work, and opened up new fields of Young Pioneers' work. Third, unblock the channels of family education. Family environment education is an interactive education among family members. There are many opportunities for mutual education in family life. In the process of purchasing refrigerators, color TVs and washing machines, we will compare various performances and energy saving, and also compare the differences between fluorine-free refrigerators and fluorine-containing refrigerators. These, the children have mastered this knowledge in the lesson of "green shop opening" In catering, it is also a good opportunity to carry out environmental education, such as not using disposable chopsticks and foam fast food boxes. This is the reuse of disposable articles learned in class in life practice. There is also the attitude of using electricity and water, recycling waste, and suggesting that mom buy food and carry baskets instead of plastic bags. Reasonable advice to children may be ignored by parents, and education may not produce immediate results, but it is a long-term and continuous accumulation process. We teach children not to rush for success, but to move people with emotion. To this end, our school launched a letter exchange activity of "I told my parents about environmental protection" to impress parents with their children's words and deeds. In order to plant seeds of environmental protection in students' minds, the Young Pioneers organized students to inspect the surrounding environment of the campus, so that students could personally feel the importance of environmental protection. Use the weekend to organize students to count the passing cars on the nearby roads and the chimneys of the nearby factories, so that parents or farmers can know the construction area of cultivated land, the number of trees cut down and so on. Students also set up contact cards for parents, so that students can directly know the number of trees, ponds and cultivated land before and after the house from 65438 to 0996. In view of the fact that some students live in Huanghua Airport and the countryside near the airport, we mobilize these students to put up posters in nearby farmers to publicize the influence of burning straw on aircraft navigation and air pollution to farmers. Many students report the results of various social practices to the school teachers, and some students organize the survey results into small papers under the guidance of the teachers. Children have increased their knowledge and awareness of environmental protection in the process of social practice. The smooth channel of environmental education in schools has made environmental education a reality, sowed the seeds of environmental protection in children's young hearts, let them know how to care for the homeland on which we live from an early age, and gradually enhance their sense of social responsibility to protect the environment. ]
