Theme Activity Design for the Middle Class: Me and Spring 1

I. Comprehensive analysis

(A) the theme forecast analysis

Spring is the time for everything to revive. No matter from the climate change, the growth of animals and plants, or people themselves, we all really feel the characteristics of spring. It can be said that setting the theme of "I and Spring" closely combines the organizational requirements of "making full use of the favorable conditions of the surrounding environment and giving full play to children's sensory functions" in the Regulations, which provides sufficient space for us to effectively realize this scheduled course.

For a given theme "I and Spring", I think it can cover a wide range of content, so I roughly divide the content that the theme may point to (as shown in the figure), extract the expected content that children may be interested in and arrange it, but at the same time it is relatively independent, mutual penetration and mutual integration. Because only in this way can the theme be organically integrated, and children can develop independently in full interaction with the surrounding environment.

Animals (such as tadpoles and silkworms). ) Spring plants. (such as: peach tree, Malantou, magnolia, etc. ).)

Feed me (people), plant me and feed me.

(B) class analysis (middle class era)

Through the observation and conversation of the children in this class, it is found that they have basic cognitive experience of the four seasons, and adults can tell obvious seasonal characteristics and are interested in seasonal changes. And some knowledge about spring has penetrated into daily activities (such as day and night changes, understanding peach trees and Malantou, etc.). Most children in the class show active thinking, interest in new things, strong curiosity and thirst for knowledge. However, it is also found that some children lack concentration and patience, and their attention is easily diverted; There are also some children who can't actively participate in the observation of things around them or dare not express their findings. Therefore, based on this theme, we will proceed from the reality of children, grasp the differences of children's development level, and hope that through various forms and ways of interaction, children can participate independently and spontaneously, and develop to a higher stage on the basis of their own cognitive structure.

(3) Preliminary investigation and analysis

In order to have a deeper understanding of the content of the theme activity "I and Spring", we not only observe children in the garden, but also grasp the development of children through interviews with parents and targeted questionnaires. The survey shows that parents will consciously take their children to outdoor activities during holidays, and pay attention to guiding their children to observe and feel the spring, and reflect the spring things that children care about through parents. A variety of plants (such as grass, flowers, willow, etc. ), animals (such as swallows, butterflies, tadpoles and so on. ) and people's activities (such as outing and flying kites). ) spring. Starting from children's interests, we can extract educational content from them, so as to promote the smooth and effective development of the theme activities of "I and Spring".

Second, the theme goal of "I and Spring" activity

The first stage and the second stage

1, interested in the growth of animals and plants in spring through various activities; Under the guidance of the teacher, observe and understand their growth and change, and be willing to express. Further observation reveals the characteristics of spring and recognizes the plants and animals that grow in spring. Observe and learn to simply record their changes.

2. I will show my understanding and feelings about plants and animals in spring in various forms; Learn to take care of plants (such as sunflowers) and raise small animals (such as silkworms) in spring.

3. Under the guidance of adults, participate in the environmental layout of the class in spring. You can participate in the creation of class spring environment according to the existing cognitive experience.

4. Be interested in observation, feel the change of spring, and love spring. Willing to pay attention to the changes of things around you and experience the fun of seasonal changes.

Description:

1. Because there are differences in the development level of children in the class, some projects are hierarchical when setting goals, so that each child can develop in the process of participating in theme activities.

2. Because it is a predetermined plan, we can flexibly adjust the goals and activity design according to the development of young children in future practice.

Three, "I and Spring" theme activity education program and effect analysis.

(A) "I and Spring" theme activities-early collective activities.

Table 1:

The content of collective activities is generated by analyzing the target effect of the activities.

Know Malantou

1, understand the morphological characteristics of Malantou, and know that it is a nutritious wild vegetable.

2. Learn to observe Malantou in the order of root-stem-leaf.

I like to eat all kinds of wild vegetables in spring. Adults often can't distinguish wild vegetables. Wild vegetables are typical creatures in spring, so we seized this resource and carried out a series of activities. In addition to understanding the specific Malantou, we also conducted a "potherb buffet" tasting activity. In the process of tasting, let children have a certain understanding of other spring wild vegetables.

Know peach trees

1, get a preliminary understanding of the shape and use of peach trees, and can simply describe them in language.

2. Learn to observe methods in an orderly manner.

3. Appreciate peach trees and experience the harmonious feelings between people and plants. Because plants change obviously in spring, teachers must seize this favorable opportunity to guide children to learn the method of continuous observation, so that we can make use of outdoor activities and walking time to let children carry out continuous comparative observation, which not only cultivates children's meticulous quality, but also stimulates their feelings of caring about plant growth.

Know the tadpole and its mother.

1, get a preliminary understanding of the appearance characteristics and living habits of tadpoles and frogs, and the process of tadpoles becoming frogs.

2. Find out the difference in appearance of tadpoles by comparison.

3. Know that frogs are animals that are beneficial to human beings and love frogs. The tadpole, the representative animal of spring, has appeared in the activity room. Children like to talk about tadpoles in natural corners. In this way, we skillfully designed the activity of "Little Tadpole and its Mother", mainly by observation and discussion, so that children can initially understand the growth and change process of tadpoles, and also show their knowledge in the form of art activities on wall decorations and observation books in spring, and make brochures. At the same time, we provide books about frogs to guide children to further explore and learn.

Table 2:

Analysis of the content, target effect and content generation of collective activities.

Story: looking for a happy little flower seed

1. Understand the process of seeking "happiness" in the story and perceive the structure of "seeking-seeking-discovering" through the appreciation of literary works; Learning sentences: happy, happy, I give it to everyone ... everyone likes me.

2. Use the method of asking questions and appreciating performances to perceive and understand the story.

3, know how to do good for others, make others happy, and you will be happy. This activity is based on language activities, from which scientific connotation is organically infiltrated, so that children can understand the works, but also realize the way to express their emotions and vivid images. Teachers closely combine children's love for floret seeds with planting activities, so that children can plant floret seeds at home and kindergarten, and enrich their perceptual experience of spring in future observation activities.

Poetry: drizzle

1. Learn poetry and understand its happy emotional characteristics under the background of music.

2. Use nonverbal behaviors such as actions to express the cheerful mood of music, and at the same time perceive the same language through the same actions.

3. Experience the spring coming quietly. Beginning of spring has passed, the weather is still cold, and the changes of natural plants are not obvious. We can take this activity as the entrance to the theme of spring, record the changes of spring through observation and recording, and experience the coming of spring quietly with our heart.

Fairy tale: three butterflies

1, perceive fairy tales, understand and retell the dialogue between flowers and butterflies in fairy tales, and enrich the corresponding vocabulary.

2. Learn stories by accumulating transferred images, actions and repeated implied language.

3. Experience the happiness of being friendly with peers. Although the children are familiar with this story, they can still concentrate on learning and telling it in the activities, especially in the performance part. In order to meet the needs of each child, the teachers put props and headdresses into the performance area, encouraging them to pay more attention to spring things while providing children with participation.

Poetry: Friends of Spring

1. Learn poetry and understand the relationship between butterflies, grasses and small leaf grasses in spring.

2. Perceive and understand the poetic content in the game.

3. I feel very fond of spring. This poem is a free verse with vivid language and strong action, which is suitable for performing activities. In the process of performance, children can transfer their understanding of spring to poetry, and join their own performances to create new performance content.

2. Through comparative observation, we can distinguish and fold the shape of the frog.

3. For each folding step, smooth the creases by hand. With the approach of spring, the children took the tadpole to the kindergarten and began to talk about its mother while observing the tadpole. To this end, we prepared a small pond in the corner of the wall decoration and pasted the children's frog origami on the wall, which not only strengthened the children's understanding of spring animals, but also enhanced their sense of accomplishment.

Especially Jiang Xinyue, who seldom speaks at ordinary times, also spoke five times in this activity. Judging from the frequency of speech and the adequacy of speech autonomy, the teaching effect of grouping form is better than that of non-grouping form.

(2) Most of the conversations focused on the activities we have carried out, such as animal breeding, spring outing, clothing, fruits and so on. Li Zaiying mentioned that the obvious change in spring is that hibernating animals wake up and effectively transmit rational knowledge.

Four, "I see the baby silkworm" series of activities (secondary theme)

Design intent:

In the process of carrying out the theme activities of "I and Spring", we will carry out representative activities of animal silkworms in spring. In the early stage of body projection, children developed great interest, and their educational value was verified and determined. Therefore, we try to carry out generative activities from the predetermined content, that is, "I see the silkworm baby in spring" series of activities.

Children's Behavior Analysis and Content Generation in Time Activities

In the early stage of my Spring Friends Questionnaire (attached with the questionnaire "My Spring Friends"), children paid attention to the animals and plants in spring, which determined the educational value of our scheduled plan. On the basis of providing tadpoles in Nature Corner, teachers set free "silkworms" purposefully in spring to observe children's behaviors and reactions.

Parent-child activities of feeding silkworm babies Every child took home two silkworm babies provided by the teacher, carefully fed them, and often came to the kindergarten to communicate with teachers and peers, and also raised many questions, so we made a "smart tree" about silkworm babies.

The tree of wisdom (about silkworms) The name "the tree of wisdom" itself comes from children. When the teacher said, "Let's give the tree a name!" Li Zaiying said: "The child who likes to ask questions is very smart, so we call it the tree of wisdom." So the teacher showed the children's questions about silkworms on the page in the form of leaves, arranged them accordingly, found out the educational content that children care about, and classified them. (with statistical table)

Mid-term observation of parent-child activities of silkworm (with questionnaire "My Silkworm Baby") In the process of feeding silkworm at home, we set questions to guide parents to play their educational role, stimulate children to learn and observe the shape of silkworm in an orderly way, and solve their concerns about the shape and structure of silkworm.

Record the dialogue and continuity of measuring the silkworm baby (with the record table "My silkworm baby is growing up") In daily activities, children often say to the teacher, "Teacher, I take good care of the silkworm baby, and it has grown so big!" The teacher found that the children were very interested in the growth and changes of silkworms, so he organized a guiding conversation. How do you know that silkworms are growing? And make children observe continuously at home.

I saw the educational activities of spring silkworm babies in droves.
