Yesterday, I read a journal by Dr. Liu Lianghua, "If I were a Kindergarten Director", and there were many posts. I also agree with several things that kindergarten teachers are encouraged to do:
1, take children to play outside the classroom and let them get close to natural soil, weeds, hillsides, Woods and rivers. ...
Yes, physical education should be the primary course in kindergarten. Through outdoor activities close to nature, it is the most important prerequisite for children's growth and success in life to keep them away from words such as "pale and colorless", "lazy and incompetent" and "afraid of cold and heat", and to get happiness from sports and get a healthy body.
Our existing garden conditions (reinforced concrete, ceramic tile plastic) and parents' excessive protection restrict teachers and affect children. To this end, we can only find another way. I advocate, encourage and ask our teachers to take their children out of the classroom, out of the garden, into nature and into the community. And make relevant regulations, such as ensuring two hours of outdoor activities in the park every day, arranging outdoor sports activities of "getting close to nature" or "walking into the community" once a week, and arranging "practical experience activities" once a month, and strongly opposing keeping children in classrooms, desks and chairs all day.
Indoor activities are needed, but they should not be used for reading and learning knowledge, mainly for singing and dancing. The second main course of preschool education is music and dance. Every child should be an excellent dancer.
Yes, music is the most wonderful art in the world. Children's life should be immersed in this kind of beauty and should fully enjoy this kind of beauty. Reflecting on the reform of preschool education in recent years, I am keen to let children explore and operate, and have carried out many theme activities, but neglected the development of children's favorite music activities. Dr. Liu's harsh wording in the article "A child who can't sing and dance will be shamefully suppressed in his growth" has to arouse the reflection of kindergarten teachers.
3. Whether indoors or outdoors, children's learning should be shown as a "game" state.
Kindergartens should take games as their basic activities, attach importance to children's interests and needs, guarantee children's right to play games, and let children have a realistic happy life. However, at present, we still have many educational models to promote children's advanced development, and there are many inappropriate educational behaviors. Especially under the pressure of some parents, the understanding of the game function has faded, and the development of game activities has been relatively reduced. We should think: How do children learn? Which way is best for children? What is the real value of game activities?
Writing here, I feel that I can't reflect, but I feel the same way. More importantly, as a preschool teacher, how to put the concept of identity into practice.
Reflections on the work of kindergarten principals (2): Reflections on the professional work of kindergarten principals (50 10 words)
Busyness, joy, confusion and epiphany are intertwined with the movement of business administration this semester. Looking back on the past six months, we should reflect and summarize our work and look forward to the work in the next semester.
First, pay attention to reality, grasp the foundation, and clarify the management objectives of education protection.
As a novice business executive, I feel anxious and at a loss in the face of brand-new kindergartens and unfamiliar affairs. Therefore, after consulting and listening in many ways and effectively learning from the management experience of education and protection, especially under the guidance of the director, Mr. Zhao, I came out of the confusion, made clear the responsibilities and tasks of an enterprise executive, and gradually unveiled the management ideas.
At the beginning of the semester, on the basis of all-round understanding, analysis and diagnosis of the present situation of teachers, class children and parents in our school, I adhered to the principles of "different from school to school", "different from person to person", "based on the normal state, laying a solid foundation and demonstrating teaching", and persisted in implementing the Twelfth Five-Year Plan for District Preschool Education in the spirit of the Outline and Guiding Opinions. Pay attention to the implementation of basic courses, strengthen teaching practice research and improve teaching quality. At the same time, pay attention to routine management, constantly standardize the operating requirements of teachers' daily activities, ensure the stable and orderly development of kindergarten education, and promote the progress of teachers and children.
Second, pay attention to training, grasp the weak links and promote the all-round development of teachers.
The development of kindergartens is inseparable from the improvement of teaching ability, and the improvement of teaching quality is inseparable from the development of teachers. In view of the present situation that the overall teaching staff in our park is very weak, it is urgent to strengthen the construction of teaching staff, which has become the primary task of our park.
1, emphasizing the cultivation of teaching and research team leaders.
(1) reflects the pertinence of the guidance in the form of regular meeting of the group leader. In view of the fact that the teaching and research team leader is a novice and the teaching staff lacks backbone teachers, we have increased the guidance and guidance for the teaching and research team leader. I listened carefully to Director Zhao's opinions, adopted her accumulated management experience for many years, and gave guidance in a face-to-face and hands-on manner. At the group leader's regular meeting, we should start with how to make a teaching and research plan, discuss the establishment of teaching and research objectives, sort out the monthly research focus, discuss the design of teaching and research activities and the organization of the activity process, and gradually improve the group leader's ability to design and organize activities.
(2) Promoting the effectiveness of teaching and research with case guidance. In every group teaching and research and lesson preparation group activity, the principal and deputy director insist on in-depth teaching and research, and study, research and think with the teacher. In the activity, or as a team member, participate in topic exchange and share your teaching experience; Or as a manager, evaluate the quality of teachers' scientific research and the organization of teaching and research activities and make suggestions; Or as an "expert", diagnose, sort out and improve the problems debated by teachers. Through the transformation of different roles, it can play a leading role and guide teaching and research activities well.
2. Retrain teachers.
Most of the Protestant normal universities in our park account for 52% of the first-line teachers, and most of them graduated from non-normal majors. These teachers lack theoretical basis and practical experience. Therefore, in order to help new teachers grow up as soon as possible and be competent in the shortest time, the training of new teachers has been strengthened this semester.
(1) Start tutoring activities.
Due to the serious shortage of young and middle-aged backbone teachers in our kindergarten, we have implemented the mode of full participation in mentoring activities, made full use of the existing kindergarten teachers' resources (including the director and deputy director) for one-on-one and one-on-two pairing, effectively made up for the shortage of teachers, and equipped two teachers for each new teacher to teach and teach regularly, and strived to create a learning atmosphere of mutual assistance between the able and the able. * * * Discuss and formulate teaching plans and taught plans, and conduct all-round teaching around the writing of education and teaching plan records, the organization of one-day activities, class management, and teaching concepts. In daily life, let new teachers grow up quickly.
(2) Carry out special training activities.
In view of the confusion of new teachers' daily teaching, special training has been carried out to help new teachers accumulate experience in collective collision, such as creating regional environment, operating norms and requirements of one-day activities, how to organize parent-teacher meetings, training regular classes, how to tell stories to children, and how to attend classes and evaluate classes.
(3) Organize on-the-job training activities
This semester, while leading new teachers to internalize learning, we insist on carrying out various forms of skills display activities every month, such as: organizing a "simulated small class" before the parent-teacher meeting in September; June wonderful story meeting activity 5438+00; 165438+ 10, according to the instructions of the district education office, actively launched the "My Growing Story" speech contest, combined with the activities of the district training institute, carried out indoor sports case writing and painting skills display and exchange under the theme background, strengthened the professional skills of new teachers and promoted their professional skills.
(4) Carry out the activities of listening to lectures and evaluating classes. Focusing on the new teacher training plan, adhere to the monthly report activities, and actively encourage new teachers to take practical classes and pair show activities. Try "one lesson and three research" to let new teachers constantly adjust their educational behavior in the process of repeated polishing and practical reflection, from the design of problems to the design and organization of teaching activities, from the rhythm of language to the improvement of activities, from the size of lessons to the evaluation of children's works, to help them find problems, find countermeasures, give ideas and give ideas, and strive to make each teacher develop in the activities of listening and evaluating each other and get useful inspiration in the discussion.
This semester, we also actively set up a platform for teachers to study, train, observe and communicate outside by inviting teachers in and out. One is to send Jiao and Chen to participate in the training of Little Swallow Club and the teaching and research group of key classes, and the business director to participate in the business seminar and central group study; Teachers are also allowed to participate in municipal training activities, environmental construction in surrounding areas, exchange and observation activities of structured games, and listen to expert lectures to realize resource sharing and improvement. Secondly, using the cooperative pairing platform, we will carry out various forms of pairing observation activities with district-level demonstration parks, folk music kindergartens and first-class kindergartens, including guidance and discussion on the cultural construction and teacher construction of the park, on-site teaching and research activities, and demonstration activities of computer, language and music teaching. Through multi-channel study and training, teachers have broadened their horizons and gained rich theoretical and information experience. Teachers have a deep understanding and gained a lot, which has effectively promoted the professional growth of teachers.
Third, focus on the classroom, grasp the practice, and improve the quality of education and teaching.
Classroom teaching is the position of children's development, and teachers are the commanders in charge of classroom teaching. According to the current situation of teachers' weak classroom teaching ability and the needs of teachers' development, this semester we have carried out a series of study, discussion and practice based on new teaching materials and case study as the main research method to improve teachers' ability to implement new teaching materials and enhance the effectiveness of classroom teaching.
1. Pay attention to the quality of special research and improve teachers' ability to design activities.
In view of the problems existing in teachers' teaching, we actively carry out special research, conduct theoretical study around the contents of collective activities such as "goal setting and grasping", "content selection" and "link design", and at the same time, help teachers sort out the correct theory and experience of activity design through specific lesson analysis, so as to lay a good foundation for education and teaching practice.
2. Pay attention to teaching practice and improve teachers' teaching practice ability.
At the same time of theoretical study, actively carry out one course, three research courses and heterogeneous practical activities in the same class, and strive to make everyone participate in the discussion, form a research atmosphere of unity and cooperation, so that teachers can gradually internalize new ideas in repeated practice and implement them in educational practice. For example, language activities such as "leaves are like butterflies", "trains whine" and life activities such as "drilling quilt tubes"; CUHK team's activities such as Snails and Apples, Borrowing Animals, etc. are to make the objectives of the activities closer to children's recent development areas, the content closer to children's life experiences, and the teaching methods can better stimulate children's interest in continuous learning, focus on problems, and improve their abilities through repeated attempts and rounds of discussions.
3. Pay attention to reflection before and after practice, and improve teachers' ability of analysis and adjustment.
We insist on having a good lesson and discussing it. Before practice, we pay attention to every teacher in each teaching and research group using the theoretical knowledge they have learned, seriously discussing the teaching materials and designing the activity plan. In practice, let observers watch activities with questions, find highlights and problems, and follow up lectures and evaluation activities in time after practice, learn to pay attention to the value of teaching materials, children's age characteristics and life experience, the creation of environment and the design of links, and teachers' questions and answers. Under the collision of collective wisdom,
Fourth, pay attention to daily life, pay attention to details, and improve organizational management ability.
1. Pay attention to the daily work of the class and improve the quality of class management.
When new teachers account for an absolute proportion, class routines are prone to confusion. Therefore, this semester pays special attention to class routine management, such as the arrangement and implementation of one-day activities, children's safety education, morning exercises, reception of parents entering and leaving the park, etc., and improves the class management ability of new teachers in the form of special counseling, dialogue and exchange, and random inspection and guidance.
2. Pay attention to the overall class environment and improve teachers' ability to create environment.
At the beginning of school, we specially organized teachers to carry out training on creating class environment, mainly focusing on three aspects: theme wall environment, non-theme environment (bathroom, lighting room, home window, etc.). ) and regional environment. At the same time, we have invited teachers to visit institutions, people's entertainment, study and childcare facilities many times. After many visits and studies, the teachers benefited a lot and took active actions. On the basis of imitation, according to the characteristics of the class, they creatively made and decorated the corner environment and put in corresponding materials. From the environmental inspection and appraisal activity in June 5438+065438+ 10, we were delighted to see that our teachers really learned something and their ability to create the environment was greatly improved. The environment of Beibei Class and Grade Five Class is more creative. We shared with you in large-scale group activities, which was recognized by all teachers.
3. Pay attention to data accumulation and improve teachers' analytical and writing skills.
In daily work, the business director cooperates with the teaching and research team leader, pays attention to every teacher's desk information, gives timely feedback, gives collective guidance to sexual problems, exchanges personalized problems individually, learns highlights in the form of interactive communication, and improves the quality of teachers' writing. At the same time, pay attention to leaving the footprint of teachers' growth, organize and file teachers' practical activities, education and teaching research, class environment and materials written by teachers, and gradually establish a kindergarten resource database.
4. Pay attention to teachers' evaluation and stimulate teachers' subjective initiative.
We adhere to the system of monthly assessment and final assessment of teaching and research groups. Based on the monthly assessment, teaching and research group practice activities, new teacher practice activities, project inspection and evaluation (teacher's desk data, children's growth files, district corner environment creation, natural corner planting angle, sports equipment production, etc.). ) and the contribution made to the kindergarten, the members of the assessment team objectively and fairly assessed each teacher and listened carefully to the opinions and ideas of the teaching staff.
Fifth, pay attention to communication, pay attention to parents' work and improve kindergarten publicity.
1, pay attention to leading guidance and ensure the effectiveness of tutor guidance.
Concept is the forerunner of behavior, and parents' knowledge and understanding of kindergarten education directly affects the quality of family education. Therefore, our garden has carried out a series of activities to help parents update their educational concepts. Organize expert lectures with a certain professional level, which can be closely linked with practice, such as Zhao Yuanchang's lecture on "Pre-study in Kindergarten for Freshmen in Small Classes" and Cui's lecture on "Cultivating Children's Habits" at the beginning of the semester; Choose articles about family education experience in family tabloids and play with children; Open a fetion channel and exchange parenting experiences with each other online. In addition, we often communicate with individual teachers, find out the problems existing in parents' work in time, and gradually learn to communicate with parents with different educational levels, educational attainments and personality characteristics, so as to improve communication ability and effectiveness.
2, pay attention to daily work, down-to-earth to carry out daily work.
Parents' routine work is reflected in their daily work. In order to make parents understand our work and win their understanding and trust, we require teachers of all classes to communicate with parents in various ways, give timely feedback on the teaching content of kindergarten education, show parents a glimpse of children's activities in the park in time, and meet the needs of different parents for kindergarten education as much as possible. Therefore, we make full use of family contact channels such as parent-teacher conferences, family contact columns, parents' interesting stories, baby growth books, class websites and family tabloids to carry out various colorful family education guidance. Through a series of routine parental work, our parents can have a broader understanding of our kindergarten and a more comprehensive understanding of their children's study and life in kindergarten, thus further enhancing their understanding and support for kindergarten work.
3. Attach importance to the role of the Family Committee and strengthen communication between families.
This semester, we set up the first Garden Committee. Through regular meetings of kindergarten family committees, family members are organized to participate in the management of kindergarten education and teaching, children's meals, safety and other work, so that they can understand and participate in the daily management of kindergartens, and with the help of parents' wisdom and ability, brainstorm and complete the smooth realization of preschool education goals. For example, when we worked out the four-year development plan for kindergartens, we held a family committee to let members of the family committee comment on the work of kindergartens in families and communities. For example, in the semester of 10, our garden also invited members of the family Committee to participate in the kindergarten safety supervision day. 65438+February * * * Planning New Year activities and so on. In the past semester, we can see that the enthusiasm of the members of the family Committee is very high, and many members of the family Committee take the initiative to act as a bridge between kindergartens and other parents.
Disadvantages and thinking of intransitive verbs;
The main problems: their own theoretical level, business guidance ability and management experience are weak, and there are few overall plans. Even if they have ideas, they are not bold enough, resulting in a lot of working hours, but the efficiency is not high enough. Specific performance:
1, a day's session needs to develop civilized habits such as lunch and washing, but inspection is not enough. Next semester, we should strengthen daily supervision and inspection, and grasp the weak links in children's work and rest.
2. According to the examination of teachers' desk materials, due to the large number of new kindergarten teachers, the daily activity plans of each new teacher have not been checked one by one, and there are phenomena of low quality and running accounts, so we should effectively follow up mentoring.
3. Class regional activities are divided and certain routines are established, but there is not much information provided and there is a lack of hierarchy. Next semester, the teaching and research group should dig deep into the theme content and provide rich activity materials suitable for children.
4. The quality of the activities of the preparation group and the teaching and research group needs to be improved. The preparation group needs to make an in-depth analysis of each topic and creatively implement new textbooks. In the form of teaching and research group activities, we strive to present diversification, actively carry out diversified teaching and research activities such as teacher participation, case analysis, backbone guidance and practical reflection, and form a democratic, open and effective teaching and research mechanism, so that teaching and research can truly meet teachers' internal needs and become a "gas station" to promote teachers' professional growth.
5. Classroom research is not deep enough, especially the monitoring of curriculum evaluation in the process of curriculum management is not specific and in place. Next semester, we will constantly standardize the routine of daily education and teaching, go deep into the classroom and pay attention to feedback.
A semester's work is very busy and full. With the support of the director and the cooperation of the teacher, the business plan can basically be effectively implemented, and the deficiencies can be adjusted and improved in time. We believe that with the joint efforts of all the staff in the park, we will create a better tomorrow!
