Every parent wants his children to study hard, work hard and live a good life in the future. Driven by this desire, we are more and more eager for our children to learn all kinds of cultural knowledge in advance, so that they can learn better, learn more easily and go smoothly in the future after entering primary school. Therefore, our media has given this kind of education a name of "new wine in old bottles"-"advanced education". Reality: Half of the children have received "advanced education". It is found that about half of the children have received advanced education at present, and the advanced education of children aged 3-7 mainly focuses on literacy, mathematics, reading and oral English. It is understood that parents are the "main force" to educate their children in advance, except that special classes and interest classes in kindergartens sometimes involve a lot of primary education. They make great efforts to teach children Chinese, mathematics and English, and even use primary school textbooks to teach them, and greatly promote compulsory education on the basis of campus education. As a result, there are many "little prodigies" around us, some of whom can read books, read newspapers, speak English and recite Tang poems when they are only four years old; Some people know more than 1000 words when they are only five years old, which is enough to cope with the Chinese class in Grade One ... At the same time, some schools also help children to advance their education. For example, it is best to know hundreds of Chinese characters or have special skills when asking children to go to the first grade. When selecting students, schools sometimes look at the number of times children have won prizes, whether they have participated in English, mathematics and other training, whether they have skills and so on. Correspondingly, the phenomenon of advanced education for freshmen in many central primary schools and experimental primary schools is particularly prominent. Are you ahead of the trend? It is proposed in the kindergarten syllabus that children should develop morally, intellectually and physically in an all-round way when they graduate from large classes-master the addition and subtraction within 10; Can fully express, confident and fluent, can read children's songs; Have a certain imagination and creativity; Can take care of themselves in life, dress, undress and eat by themselves; Have the ability to cooperate, and be able to communicate with people confidently and boldly. The specific situation varies from person to person and from school to school. There is no question of whether children can reach the standard after graduation. Voice: Parents, teachers and experts "tripartite meeting" Parents: teach or not teach? "Choice" in the problem kindergarten Keywords: When our son was 2 years old, we began to strengthen his education. Some other children in my son's class learn earlier and learn more than my son. Children nowadays are all only children. Who wants their children to fall behind? In addition, be prepared! There is nothing wrong with learning more. After going to primary school, teachers will always like children who study well and have more opportunities. -Ms. Lin Keywords: Talent Competition We don't want our children to learn so many things so early, and we hope they can play more, but now the competition for social talents is too fierce. Do adults still watch less? So must we. Isn't there a saying called "Don't let children lose at the starting line"? I don't want my children to be on the verge of unemployment like us in the future! -Teacher Liu Keywords: There is only one childhood, and I don't think it is necessary to educate children in advance. When I was in kindergarten, I only played and couldn't even write my own name, and a little girl next door was always forced by her father to learn a first-grade textbook. Later, we went to primary school together. Although I couldn't compete with her at first, I surpassed her two years later. Therefore, although people around me have been urging me to tutor my children more, I still adhere to the principle of letting nature take its course and step by step, never forcing my daughter to study, and let her play more. After all, childhood is only once. —— Ms. Hua's troubles after entering primary school Keywords: When our daughter was still in kindergarten, we often gave her a small stove to teach her to read, learn English and do math; People around her often praise her for her cleverness, and we have always been very proud of our advanced education. But when I entered primary school, my teacher often complained to me that my daughter was not focused in class and always turned her books to the back. She asked her daughter, and she said, "I can do everything in front of me. There is nothing to see." Once when the whole class was reading new words, the teacher told everyone to stop after reading what they had taught. Because my daughter knows a lot of words, she read it carelessly and made other children laugh. Hey, if you don't teach, you won't feel at ease. If you teach, you will be in trouble. It's really hard to grasp! -Ms. Zhang Keywords: Before my daughter went to primary school, I took her to register. The teacher asked her how many Chinese characters she could know and how many digits she could add and subtract. I am proud to tell her that her daughter can read almost ten words and can add and subtract within ten digits. Unexpectedly, the teacher frowned and suggested that I help my daughter catch up with the progress. Many children know five or six hundred Chinese characters and are familiar with addition and subtraction within three digits. Optimistic by nature, I didn't take the teacher's words to heart at all, and felt that the teacher would naturally take care of my study. There was an open class one month after the start of school. I watched all the other children answering and talking, only my daughter creaked and talked nonsense. I was on pins and needles, and my face burned. If I had known this would happen, I should have educated my children as early as other parents! You can avoid today's shame. -Ms. Li Keywords: I'm sure I can keep up when my son goes to kindergarten. My husband and wife are too busy at work to teach him more. After school starts, we are afraid that our son can't keep up, so we often give him a "wooden fish" to let him study hard. Unexpectedly, I made my son nervous as soon as he entered school. Occasionally, after a day of illness, he would mutter, "I can't keep up with my homework again." Now we are also nervous. After discussion, we simply called the teacher and asked him to comfort our son. When the son heard the teacher say "Never mind, I'm sure I can keep up", his mood was much calmer. Now my son is studying very well. Teacher Qin: formal education is irreplaceable Keywords: irregular learning Almost half of the children in our class have learned to read and can speak simple English. It sounds like children are of high quality, but in the course of class, many colleagues and I found that children who study in advance have many problems. For example, some children learn to read with grandparents and other elderly people at home, either with nonstandard pronunciation or local accent; Some children are not sitting properly; Some children are fast, but they make many mistakes ... and it is difficult to correct them. I think a formal education with the same starting line is still indispensable for children, and we can't let advanced education hinder children from receiving formal and identical school education. -Teacher Zhang, Grade One, a primary school in Changning District, Shanghai Keywords: Tired of learning in our school, some children can read the whole Chinese book before formal classes. Because the content to be learned in class will be mastered, many children are particularly inattentive in class, and some children are tired of learning. In addition, because some children learn more, some children learn less, and the starting point of children in a class is uneven, which makes us feel very headache. To this end, we have to keep playing tricks. For example, after unifying basic education, let some children with higher starting point be small teachers and give lectures to other children in group activities to improve their learning enthusiasm. In my opinion, parents should teach according to the actual situation of each child, and there is no need to advance education. After all, after children enter primary school, teachers still have to start educating children from the same starting point. —— Teacher Liu Peihua, the guidance office of a central primary school in Huangpu District, Shanghai Keywords: Ability, many children in our class have finished the content of primary school in advance, but many children have problems in their hands-on ability and communication ability. Some children seldom play with their classmates, some children can't tidy their schoolbags by themselves, and some children even dare not go to the toilet alone. I don't think such an advanced education is worth mentioning. -Teacher Wei, the first grade of a primary school in Tianjin Keywords: Method is very important. If parents can help their children, I think it is very good, as long as they master the methods. If all parents teach their children, the children naturally don't listen in class; However, if parents can cooperate with the school in time to do the daily preview and review work, not only will the children accept and respond quickly in class, but the teaching progress will also be accelerated. Isn't it a good thing that when children learn well, their interest and enthusiasm for learning will come up, and they will even have spare capacity to help children who are slow to respond? ! -Xu Lan, a primary school in Xuhui District, Shanghai Teacher Expert: Education should be comprehensive Keywords: The main purpose of preschool education is to let children learn in interest, not to make learning a pressure on children. Children have their own characteristics, and it is also a fact that school education cannot take care of every child. Therefore, it is not unreasonable for parents to give some children with good understanding and learning ability some advanced education according to their actual situation. However, if we are too advanced, and even let the advanced education affect the children's formal compulsory education, it will not be worth the candle. It is important for children to master knowledge and skills, but it is more important to develop thinking, language, knowledge and personality in children's playful activities. —— Lu Haijin, deputy director of Shanghai kindergarten Keywords: short advantage. Educating children should not only pay attention to intellectual factors, but also pay attention to the all-round development of children's life ability, interpersonal communication ability, practical ability and introspection ability. These non-intellectual factors will also play a decisive role in his growth. Children's learning of knowledge and skills has its own development stages and laws. If it is artificially pushed at will, it is likely to cause physical and psychological burden to children. Moreover, this artificial advantage is likely to be only temporary. When learning interest and learning attitude gradually start to dominate the learning effect, they will disappear. In fact, 0~6 years old is the best time for children to play. It is much more important for children to master all kinds of life, learning skills and communication skills while playing middle school than to let them know hundreds of words. -Qian Qinzhen, Ph.D., Department of Preschool Education, East China Normal University Keywords: comprehensive training I think preschool education should not only develop children's potential in a certain field but ignore other abilities, such as the initial practice of life and communication skills, the cultivation and edification of self-confidence, compassion, independence, autonomy and positive attitude towards life. It will lead to disharmony and imbalance between brain development and psychological factors, which may lead to some defects in children's individual quality in the long run. No matter how good and advanced a child studies, these defects may affect his future development. -The "public opinion" of the director of Shanghai Oriental Intelligent Parent-child Park about "advanced education" _ According to neurology experts, inappropriate advanced education will make children's thinking disorder. For example, some children sit incorrectly, some write like painting flowers, some children often write three or four words in a square, and some children make a lot of mistakes when they learn "mental arithmetic" to do arithmetic problems ... These are all related to thinking obstacles caused by advanced education. Young parents are busy "charging" their children, but their normal thinking faces obstacles. -"Science and Technology Daily" _ He Yifeng, director of the child care department of Qingdao Women and Children Health Center, found in the outpatient clinic that the 3-year-old boy Liangliang actually suffered from alopecia areata commonly known as "ghost shaving", which is rare among children. The reason is the disaster brought by higher education. According to Liang Liang's mother, Liang Liang not only knows more than 2,000 words, but also recites hundreds of Tang poems. However, intelligence tests have found that there is nothing surprising about intelligent development. Psychologically, Liangliang could have learned knowledge by rote every day, and even got alopecia areata because she wanted more praise from her parents, but her physical and mental health was seriously affected. —— Nanfang Daily _ The University of North Carolina once conducted an experiment: 175 children were divided into two groups, one group was educated by parents according to the general situation, and the other group started early education from 13 months, and then tested every 15 months. The experimental results show that although the IQ of children who receive advanced education and training is higher than 15 on average, these children gradually lose this advantage when they enter the fourth grade of primary school, while most children who receive progressive education from their parents catch up. China Children's Network Talk Show: Recently, a friend came back from overseas with a pair of children. Her son has just entered the first grade of primary school, and her daughter is in the kindergarten class. We talked about education, and she said with a smile, because she couldn't keep up, she dared not send her children back to China to study. It is said that her son can write his own name in the first grade, counting from 1 to 10. And her little daughter's task in kindergarten is to play and play games. This kind of "eternal life" really makes Bian Xiao envy to death. Looking back at our children, they were burdened with "learning" early in the morning, learning all the way from ABC 123. I believe that if we hold an "Intellectual Olympics" for kindergarten children, our "China Baby" will certainly win glory for the motherland. However, is this the purpose of our education? What can we teach our children but knowledge? Why does nature arrange childhood for life? Just to let children learn all kinds of knowledge in advance? I don't think this is the original intention of nature. Learning knowledge should be a part of childhood, and the rest time is games, communication, learning to think, mastering basic life skills, and developing imagination and creativity. Bian Xiao understands very well the feelings of parents who are busy with their lives in an extremely competitive modern society. There are indeed some children whose abilities are beyond their peers, and the same education can no longer satisfy their thirst for knowledge. It is also good to educate these children in advance. However, Bian Xiao also has to point out that in reality, many parents' advanced education for their children is blind and improper, at the expense of their creativity and imagination. At this point, I don't know how to continue. After thinking for a long time, I'd better end the article with a sentence from Rousseau, a French thinker and educator-"It is natural to hope that children will look like children before they reach adulthood. If we disturb this order, some fruits will be premature. They will not be full, nor sweet, and will soon rot. In other words, we will train some young doctors and older children. "
