Early Childhood Learning Resources 6 Page 14, Teacher Teaching Resources. Activity process:
1. Perceive the beautiful window grilles.
(1) Discuss with children: Why do many families like to put window grilles on their windows during the Chinese New Year? Tell me what the window grilles you have seen look like?
(2) Observe the wall charts of folk window grilles, talk about what groups are on them, and understand the meaning of the window grill patterns.
(3) The teacher cuts the window grilles impromptu, and asks the children to take a closer look at how the teacher cuts them.
Inspire children to talk about the teacher's process of cutting window grilles: Now fold the square diagonally three times, and then subtract small triangles and small semicircles from both sides.
2. Learn to cut window grilles.
(1) Show the step-by-step diagram of window grilles. The teacher guides the children to fold the paper diagonally three times according to the prompts in the step-by-step diagram to form a small triangle, as far as possible edge-to-edge and corner-to-corner. Use scissors to boldly cut out triangles, semicircles and other patterns on both sides of the triangle. Finally open the observation.
(2) Guide thinking for children’s problems: Why is it easy to cut, is the window incomplete? How can it look good?
(3) Children combine their own exploration experience, Cut the window grilles again.
3. Put up window grilles, communicate and appreciate the works.
(1) Let the children put the window grilles they cut on the window at a suitable location and compare the differences between windows with window grilles and windows without window grilles.
