Time management refers to the targeted use of work skills in daily things, rational and effective use of disposable time, so as to carry out more effective activities in unit time. Kindergarten work is very busy and trivial. Many teachers, due to the lack of time management awareness and ability, face numerous educational, teaching and scientific research work every day, and easily fall into a state of physical and mental exhaustion. Over time, on the one hand, it affects work efficiency, on the other hand, it leads to the formation of job burnout. Time management is helpful for preschool teachers to arrange and plan their daily work reasonably, ensure that all work is carried out in an orderly manner, increase personal disposable time, get the maximum work value in a limited time, and promote their professional development while improving the quality of education and teaching. Then, how can teachers get rid of the current "beating around the bush" work dilemma? Try to manage time manually from the following aspects.
First, learn the "four quadrants" rule.
"The core part of time management is how to arrange time reasonably. In order to work more effectively, teachers can use the "four quadrants" rule in time management to improve the utilization rate of time, establish a good concept of time, and ensure that the most important work is completed in the first time. According to the "four quadrants" rule. What we do can generally be divided into four categories: important-urgent, important-non-urgent, urgent-non-important, non-urgent and non-important. (3) Whether it is important for kindergartens and preschool teachers should be judged by whether it is conducive to promoting children's physical and mental development and whether it is conducive to teachers' professional development.
Important and urgent things should be given priority, such as working in a kindergarten. Try not to deal with other things in class. The safety and development of young children are the most important. First, non-urgent things should be put in the second place, such as preparing lessons and preparing various teaching toys. But they used to occupy a lot of teachers' time. In this regard, teachers should be a "conscientious person", pay attention to collecting relevant data and information, and be good at drawing lessons from and integrating them, which can save time and effort. Urgent and unimportant things, spend as little time as possible to complete. For example: receiving a phone call at work, etc. Don't do anything that is not urgent or important during office hours. For example, reading online novels, chatting by SMS, etc.
Second, make use of multi-party cooperation.
Personal strength is limited. To make full use of time to finish the work efficiently, we need to be good at using the collective strength and learning from the wisdom of others, so as to save time and achieve the goal of * * * through cooperation.
Such as cooperation between teachers. In the process of making weekly plans and making teaching toys, teachers in parallel classes can be organized to cooperate with each other.
Another example is the cooperation between teachers and children. A teacher in a large class once said with emotion, "When I leave the garden, I often ask my children to help me with my homework materials. Children love to eat! Once, I tried to invite more than a dozen children who were not picked up to help me draw and cut out patterns of various fruits and animals to prepare for the next day's math activities. The children are very excited and proud to meet their elders to introduce their works after completing the task, which makes me very relaxed, happy and inspired. Later, I asked the children to make all the teaching AIDS and learning tools needed in my class. Since a semester, the children's practical ability has been significantly developed than that of the children in parallel classes, and I have relaxed. Really kill two birds with one stone! "
Third, learn to break the whole into parts
"Time management can help us to achieve important personal goals effectively." [4J] Time management, which turns an arm into a bridge, not only enables teachers to easily complete the work needed for their professional development, but also encourages teachers to develop good habits of being good at observing, being diligent in recording and reflecting in time.
The so-called "integration" in "breaking the whole into parts" refers to the work closely related to teachers' own growth, such as writing home visit manuals and educational and teaching papers. The so-called "zero" refers to teachers' observation, recording process and self-reflection of children at ordinary times. It can be regarded as an accumulation process of "integration", that is, it is achieved through "zero". For example, in daily work, teachers consciously record interesting and progressive events of each child in a notebook to practice writing, and by the end of the month, they will use it as an important material to write a family contact manual, which will not only write the performance of many children in the class in a month with their own characteristics, but also take only one-third of the original time. "
After forming the habit of observing and recording, the teacher not only knows the children's performance like the back of his hand, but also has more materials when writing reflections and cases, which also makes the writing of the paper no longer "without rice" or "groundless". For example, a teacher in our garden talked about her application of "breaking the whole into parts" in teaching and research activities: "Last year, I wanted to write a paper on" Guiding activities of teaching activities ",so I consciously used various guiding methods in my weekly teaching activities, and wrote down the gains and losses of using different guiding methods every time in my reflection and parenting notes after the activities. In the past semester, I wrote more than a dozen reflections on' mentoring activities'. Based on these reflections, this paper with the theme of' mentoring activities' was formed, which was time-saving and efficient, and helped me overcome the fear of writing a paper. "
Fourth, be good at combining work and rest.
Although the work in kindergarten is trivial and complicated, it can get twice the result with half the effort if you are good at combining work with rest and making reasonable arrangements.
For example, during lunch break and lunch break, you can chat with colleagues, talk about children's performance in class, and discuss how to deal with the confusion of parents' problems, which will not only help you relax, but also gain more teaching experience. You can also do something "thinking". The so-called "thinking" affairs refer to the early thinking of kindergarten work. Such as the planning of regional content, the selection of regional materials before the regional layout, such as the screening of program content, the arrangement of candidates, and the division of rehearsal time before the program rehearsal. This kind of work should not be rushed for success, but should be done after accumulating rich information and mature thinking.
For another example, doing something in winter and summer vacations can also alleviate the busyness at the beginning of school. In addition to moderate leisure, you can study some books on educational theory, try to sort out the gains from one semester, think and make various plans for the new semester and so on.
Being good at combining work and rest also includes following the principle of "work today, finish today", and even getting used to finishing the work before the deadline to avoid the sense of urgency, psychological anxiety and irritability caused by the accumulation of many things, which is a good strategy for time management.
