Let's first understand the difference between kindergarten and primary education.
1. The nature and content of education are different.
Kindergarten is a non-compulsory educational institution that pays equal attention to protection and education. Children mainly play games, teachers' guidance methods are flexible and diverse, and there is no examination system. Primary education belongs to the compulsory education stage, and the leading activity is the study of cultural knowledge in various subjects according to the national unified plan and outline. The teaching form is mainly classroom teaching with a serious atmosphere. Have certain homework and necessary examination system.
2. Work and rest system is different from life management.
Kindergarten life rhythm is relaxed and free, and there are more games in one day, and life management is not mandatory. The pace of primary school life is fast and tense, the work and rest system is very strict, the class time is very long every day, and discipline and behavior norms are mandatory.
3. Different environmental settings
Kindergarten environment is lively, colorful, and there are many activity areas. There are abundant movable toys and materials in the activity areas for children to operate and play. Children are free to choose games and communicate with their peers. The classroom environment in primary schools is relatively serious, and complete sets of tables and chairs are fixed. Students have relatively few opportunities to choose activities freely.
The relationship between teachers and students is different.
Kindergarten teachers have many opportunities, a long time and a wide range of contact with young children. The relationship between teachers and children is harmonious. Children's sense of security and the need to be loved can be met. The contact between teachers and students in primary schools is limited to the classroom, with little individual contact and small coverage.
Society and adults have different requirements and expectations for children.
Adults have relatively strict and specific requirements for primary school students and high expectations, which has caused psychological pressure on children.
6. Different teaching knowledge structures
The learning content of kindergarten is simple knowledge closely related to children's life, such as "wonderful shadows" and "various cars", so as to develop children's ability of observation, comparison and generalization, and to exercise children's ability of observation, imagination, language expression and logical thinking by looking at pictures and talking. The content of primary education is systematic subject knowledge, which is based on symbols and has a high degree of abstraction. This kind of learning content can only be understood and accepted when the learner's thinking has a certain ability of abstract generalization.
All kinds of differences tell us that young convergence is necessary. At the same time, young convergence is also very important.
Primary school life is a turning point for children. How to connect children will directly affect their adaptation after school and their healthy development in the future. According to the results of our 200 questionnaires, children often have the following bad adaptability when they first enter school, due to inappropriate connections between children:
Performance aspect
Physiological aspect
Psychological aspects
Social adaptability
Tired of studying and intense emotions.
include
Physical discomfort, fatigue, loss of appetite, weight loss, lack of sleep.
Mental burden, psychological pressure, lack of self-confidence, decreased interest in learning.
Interpersonal relationship is tense, classmates are cold, and they will not communicate harmoniously.
High academic failure rate, aggressive behavior and serious absenteeism.
Fear teacher
Proportion of population
17%
2 1.3%
26.8%
15.7%
These problems seriously affect the healthy development of children's body and mind, and have a negative impact on their future study and life. So in the connection before entering school, let's listen to the interpretation given to us by the primary school teacher.
Our children are about to enter primary school. How to make good preparations before entering school and make children transition to primary school life smoothly is a problem that all our parents are very concerned about.
First, many years of work practice tell me that children's academic performance depends largely on whether they have good study habits. Therefore, it is more important for children who are about to enter school to develop good study habits than to acquire knowledge. Good study habits are the guarantee for their smooth study activities in the future. I think it is particularly important to cultivate the following habits.
1, work and rest habits
Many children feel very tired after entering school, largely because of lack of sleep. Children sleep late at night and can't get up in the morning. Eat breakfast in a hurry or be late for school. As parents, we should cultivate our children in advance and help them form the habit of going to bed early and getting up early.
2. Cultivate children's habit of packing independently.
Many children who just entered school can't pack their bags, can't keep up with the speed after school, or forget their homework. These all stem from the fact that children usually do a lot of things for their parents. Therefore, we should consciously exercise the child's independence and cultivate his habit of packing things by himself. Including training children to pick up their own toys, tidy their own rooms and prepare their own things for the next day, including school supplies and clothes. Children can handle it themselves, and parents can worry. At the same time, it can also enhance their self-confidence and feel that they can arrange their own lives. In this process, children's habit of doing things in a planned way is also cultivated.
3. Good listening habits
Because of children's age characteristics and psychological development, kindergartens mainly learn through games. When entering primary school, game activities are replaced by formal subject teaching, and a class lasts for 40 minutes. We should consciously cultivate good listening habits. For example, telling stories to children can't be played while listening. Ask questions at any time during the story, such as "Why was the rabbit sad just now?" "Who helped the little ants?" Or "Guess what will happen next?" This not only trains the child's hearing, but also trains his expressive force, imagination and memory.
With good habits, children will get better and better and have full stamina.
Second, increase children's understanding of the school, so that children are full of expectations for school learning.
We can tell our children what courses the school arranges and know the difference between primary school and kindergarten. In September, our teacher also took the children to visit the school and attended a flag-raising ceremony. They feel very fresh, know more about the school, and the school has made preparations for admission. You can also hold a small celebration ceremony at home on your child's first day of school to make him feel that going to school is a happy thing.
Third, the cultivation of sense of responsibility.
Let the children understand that they should try their best to do their own things well. Doing homework after school, like eating and sleeping every day, is necessary and non-negotiable.
Fourth, communication.
1, communicate with children more.
We should be children's listeners: consider rationality and affirm his feelings from the child's point of view; Let children learn to think from the perspective of others. For example, every day when I come home from kindergarten, I ask, What's interesting today? This can open the topic and understand the child's emotions. Sometimes, children don't want to talk, and don't be forced. But to talk to him about what is interesting or ridiculous in my work. Let children feel the joy of communicating with their parents. At the same time, it also exercises the child's expressive ability, and can know in time when the child is confused, and give appropriate help and advice. In the process of communication, we should accept children's emotions and provide many suggestions for children to choose from. More hugs, more company, more affirmation.
2. Communicate with teachers more.
Communicating with teachers can help teachers understand children more comprehensively, and at the same time, they can learn about children's situation from teachers and get more and better educational methods and concepts.

1, language aspect
(1) The key to literacy is to cultivate interest. It is best to read in games, in books and in life.
Read in the game. I often play literacy cards with my children. There are vivid pictures on one side and words on the other. At first, let the children look at the pictures and guess what the words are. If they are right, read with them. Then the mother said that the child took the card. At this time, children may not be able to read, but most of them will read correctly. If they do it right, they can win. Then the child talks, the mother takes the card, and finally the game grabs the card. Let children experience the joy of success and the joy of the game during the game. Interest in literacy will also increase greatly.
Learn to read while reading. When reading, refer to reading. In most cases, children see more pictures and less words. You can make him practice reading the cover or bigger headlines. You can also give him conditions. You can read one page to your mother and your mother will read three pages to you. Some words may not be remembered once, but they will be remembered after appearing many times. Children's Pictorial also has some words. You can choose certain words from children's favorite stories to make cards, teach children to read or tell stories according to the words on the cards. Teaching children to remember new words in a specific language environment can help them understand and use them better.
Literacy in life.
As long as we are concerned parents, we can let our children learn many new words in a happy atmosphere.
(2) Pinyin. The difficulty of pinyin is spelling. The basic strokes of pinyin are not difficult, so you don't have to practice alone to write.
(3) Writing
Children's ability to control pens can be enhanced by drawing and writing numbers. Sometimes, his interest in writing is cultivated through certain situations. Such as birthdays, news, etc. Proper housework can also help children develop muscles of small hands and promote writing. Also pay special attention to the child's sitting posture and pen holding posture. If it is found incorrect, it must be corrected in time.
Step 4 read
About reading, Mr. Sun also gave us a very specific and operable introduction in the middle class, and I also used some methods to educate my children. In oral communication with children, vocabulary is relatively poor. In the process of reading stories to children, rich languages and vivid descriptions will enhance children's interest in books and increase the accumulation of other languages. Strong interest in reading and good reading habits are also important aspects of Chinese learning. Attention should be paid to expanding children's reading range, natural science, myths and legends, idiom stories and so on. In addition, picture books are also suitable for children of this age. There are bright pictures, interesting contents and unique perspectives, which can cultivate children's keen observation and understanding of language and pictures, and some educate children on moral and mental health, especially enrich their imagination.
2. Mathematics
Because primary school mathematics is closely related to life, children should initially establish the concept of mathematics in life. For example, it is very important to help children understand the concepts of length, weight and numbers. Ask your child how much he weighs when shopping. You can tell him how many kilograms or grams it weighs. Guess how long the pencil is and how far it is from home to kindergarten. Teach your child to know the hours and half hours of watches, let him know coins when shopping, and even let him be the boss or salesman for simple currency conversion when playing house. Know all kinds of shapes in life and so on. These reserves of mathematical knowledge in life are very helpful for children's study after entering school. Playing games with children can also practice adding and subtracting numbers within 20. You can even practice multiplication formula with games.
"In fact, the real purpose of education is to cultivate children's curiosity and ability to handle life. This is what children need most. They need it when they are young and they need it when they grow up. " Therefore, in the process of educating children, we should always be clear about our educational goals and avoid detours.
In the process of educating children, we will always encounter problems and puzzles of one kind or another. Every child has his own characteristics. We should be parents who are good at thinking and learning and grow up with our children. We can also strive to improve ourselves while asking for children. Then I believe our children will move on in the future.
