1. Children's psychological development characteristics
(1) The main factors affecting the memory effect of preschool children are: the nature of memory materials, the motivation of children's memory, the participation of children's senses and thinking, and the interval between memory and review.
(2) To cultivate preschool children's memory, we should pay attention to the selection of materials suitable for children, appropriately stimulate the motivation of memory, let children remember materials in positive thinking processes and activities, and teach children the rules and methods of using memory.
2. Educational strategies
(1) In this case, Phillips can't remember the Tang poems, but he can quickly remember the characters and plots of cartoons and the experience of playing. Some children can even imitate the characters and plots of cartoons. This is because preschool children's abstract logical thinking will not sprout until they are nearly 6 years old, so it is difficult for them to understand ancient poetry. The concrete images of high-quality cartoons are just in line with children's psychological development characteristics, so they are easy to remember. The closer the back materials are to the life experience of preschool children and to children, the better the back effect will be.
(2) Phillips can't remember ancient poems. Except for ancient poems, which she can't understand, she is unwilling to recite from the motive.
(3) It is particularly worth mentioning that some parents, like Phillips' mother in this case, have always believed that knowledge related to Chinese, mathematics, English and other disciplines is "legitimate". In addition, they feel that other content is illegal and does not involve learning. This view is very narrow and harmful. The Guide to Learning and Development for Children Aged 3- 6 specifically points out that "children's learning is based on direct experience, and it is carried out in games and daily life", "to support and satisfy children's needs to gain experience through direct perception, practical operation and personal experience to the maximum extent, and it is strictly forbidden to" pull out the seedlings to help them "in advanced education and intensive training.
In the whole preschool period, the main task of children's learning is not specific knowledge and functions, but to lay interest, confidence and good study habits for life. Therefore, cultivating children's interest and confidence in learning and promoting memory through games can not only improve the effect of memory, but also strengthen children's interest in learning.
