1, observation: one of the intuitive teaching methods in kindergartens, observation education. The main method of scientific education and teaching activities refers to perceptual activities with expected purposes. Observation: refers to the specific method of observing things. According to the purpose of observation, choosing scientific observation methods will improve the efficiency of observation.
(1) Children's spontaneous observation: Children take the initiative to observe the novelty around them without the guidance of teachers. Such as airplanes in the sky, ants under trees, etc.
(2) Observation of individual objects: in a certain period of time, organize children to observe an object or phenomenon, so that children can master the name, external characteristics, functions and relationship with people and society of this object or phenomenon, thus obtaining relevant superficial knowledge. For example, food, animals and plants are generally understood in this way.
(3) Comparative observation: refers to organizing children to observe two or more objects and phenomena and compare their similarities and differences. Through analysis, comparison, judgment and thinking, we can understand things more accurately, carefully and completely and form concepts. Such as knowing figures (squares and rectangles), knowing evergreen trees and deciduous trees. It can also be divided into overall comparison and decomposition comparison. Overall comparison is to compare two or more things as a whole and find out their similarities, opposites and similarities. Decomposition comparison is to compare two kinds of objects one by one.
(4) Long-term systematic observation: also called "follow-up observation". Organize children to observe the development and change of an object or phenomenon intermittently and systematically for a long time. For example, observe the changes of plants and the moon from the perspective of planting.
(5) sequential observation: that is, carefully observe the observed objects from different angles in order. Animals are generally observed from head to toe, from top to bottom.
(6) Characteristic observation: it is a relatively static observation of the most important or some characteristics of the observed object.
(7) decomposition observation method: it is to carefully decompose and observe all parts of the observed object, and then synthesize them to achieve the purpose of clearly understanding the whole picture.
(8) exploratory observation: that is, observing the connection, transformation and cause and effect between things to explore.
