As an important carrier of human thoughts and emotions, language can help children learn to express their emotions and explore and recognize the world around them. Teaching children the most beautiful language is not only the main goal of developing children's language education, but also the foundation of promoting children to gain more language experience and promote their healthy growth. Therefore, only by understanding the characteristics of children's language and promoting their intellectual development through distinctive language education can we lay a good foundation for their communication with the outside world.
First, the characteristics of children's language at different ages
Language is an important communication tool, which can clearly express children's thoughts and intentions. 3-6 years old is the key stage of children's language formation, and the improvement of language also needs to go through a gradual process, which also makes language show different characteristics at different ages, mainly in the following aspects. In the first stage, children aged 3-4 can already speak complete sentences, especially with the awakening of self-awareness and the improvement of cognitive level, they have been able to express some information related to themselves. Nevertheless, influenced by children's physiological factors, their listening and analytical skills are generally poor. At this stage, the child's voice expression is not clear enough. Although they have greatly improved compared with those before the age of three, they still can't understand some time or personal pronouns well, which is often manifested in the inconsistency between what children hear and what they answer. This kind of irrelevant answer also reflects the remarkable characteristics of children's language at this stage, which needs to be improved in continuous language exploration. The second stage is 4-5 years old. At this stage, the child's vocal organs have gradually matured, forming a certain sense of pronunciation, and it is easy to feel the difference between themselves and others. With more and more rich language vocabulary, children's language quality has been greatly improved. In addition to fully expressing what they see, they can also try to describe some details in words, which makes children of this age prefer to participate in some activities of telling stories and reading children's songs to show their vivid and rich inner world. The third stage is children aged 5-6. They have been able to make all sounds clearly and understand the meaning of complex sentences. The continuity of language has been greatly improved, and there is no obstacle to communicate with adults. It can be said that with the enhancement of children's language expression ability, their language behavior adjustment ability has also changed greatly. In addition to expressing their thoughts and ideas at will, they also have certain planning and consciousness, which not only shows their strong language needs, but also builds a bridge between emotion and intelligence, highlighting children's unique language personality characteristics.
Second, the current lack of language education for children
At present, children's language education in China should strive to reflect the times and be scientific, and help children form a healthy language view as soon as possible. From the reality of children's language education, there are still some obvious problems in this early language enlightenment education, which are embodied in the following aspects. First of all, some parents have insufficient understanding of the importance of children's language education, and blind neglect leads to the lack of family education atmosphere for children's language. In fact, the cultivation of children's language ability is not only the responsibility of kindergartens, but also has an important connection with family education. Although children's language ability is further improved in the process of communicating with other children, if the language in family education is not standardized, it will bring potential harm to children's language education. Secondly, children's language education should penetrate into life. However, children's Chinese education just ignores the opportunity of using life materials for education, which makes children's Chinese education lose the most important and direct educational materials. For example, when you see flowers, you can completely describe the number, color and smell of flowers, so that the principle of children's language education can be implemented and implemented. Finally, the knowledge and skills of children's language education are still lacking. It is precisely because preschool education can be extended to family and life, but parents do not have professional language education knowledge and skills, and the language training of children is neither systematic nor professional, which leads to the language education of children in the family becoming "parrot-like".
Third, do a good job in children's language education measures
Doing a good job in children's language education plays a great role in children's growth. In order to make children's language education in China bear rich fruits, we should make great efforts in all aspects of children's language education, extend and expand the connotation of children's language education through careful planning, and promote the development of children's language to the maximum extent, specifically from the following two aspects. On the one hand, appropriate language education materials are essential, and some classic nursery rhymes can be collected, such as Finding Friends, Darling Rabbit, and Only Mothers are Good in the World. , can not only play the role of inheriting China's excellent folk culture, but also use these nursery rhymes close to children's intelligence level and reciting habits to cultivate children's language consistency, which is very beneficial for children to show their self-ability.
At the same time, we should also guide children to speak Mandarin, correct the problem of inaccurate pronunciation, encourage children to communicate widely, and create opportunities for improving their oral expression ability. On the other hand, children's language education mainly focuses on group activities. In these language group activities, we should pay attention to the infiltration of children's language education and cultivate and exercise children's language expression ability from various angles such as life and study. To achieve the above goals, we must first choose appropriate and effective ways and means. Among them, storytelling is an important form of children's language education activities. In story teaching, we can adopt a segmented approach, from situation introduction to story appreciation to story analysis, and finally explain the deep meaning of the story for children. Layers of in-depth teaching can help children better use language to retell stories and further develop their memory and expressive ability.
Therefore, proper teaching methods can not only provide a scene for children to develop rich associative power, but also exercise children's understanding ability, which also plays an important role in promoting children's good quality.
Four. Concluding remarks
To sum up, language is a natural communication tool in use. Only when children have a strong desire to express themselves in extensive communication with others, especially when they have ideas about their own needs, emotions and wishes, will language activities become more active. Therefore, in order to improve the quality of children's language education, we must seek more opportunities for children to speak, create a certain language education environment, develop their oral English by imparting children with certain language knowledge and expression ability, and give children a key to unlock language wisdom, so as to finally ensure that children can grow up healthily and happily.
