<h1>Classroom games how to use the best</h1>
Games are only auxiliary tools for teaching, for the selection and use of games, we should be based on several principles: clear goals, learning while playing; clear rules, orderly and effective; from simple to difficult, clear levels; in line with school age, dynamic and static combination.
The goal is clear
The design of the game is for teaching services, not too fancy, mainly to achieve the purpose of repeatedly practicing knowledge, so that students can experience the joy of learning. If you spend a lot of time playing in the classroom, but learn few knowledge points, you are putting the cart before the horse.
The rules are clear
Whether the game can be carried out smoothly, the rules are very important, the teacher should do a good job of demonstration, when the students have played several times, you can add new rules and requirements, so that the game is more standardized and effective, to ensure the order of the classroom. If you mess up the class in order to play the game, it is not worth the loss.
There are simple and difficult to get into
The game and learning need a process, the beginning is to experience the fun, after the fun is satisfied, the teacher can appropriately increase the difficulty, including the difficulty of knowledge and the difficulty of the game, can make each game have a new challenge, otherwise the student will slowly lose interest.
School age
When choosing games, teachers should consider the age of students, acceptance, safety measures, etc. How to choose a game that can be accepted by students but not overexcited, teachers must teach according to their aptitude. Many times, there is no uniform standard, and teachers only know it if they have tried it themselves.
Chinese School Material Pack:
Granules are very fast in preparing for each lesson, the main reason is that they have accumulated a lot of materials, and many of them are ready to use. This time, I sorted out 7 different folders and shared them with everyone.
The word cards that have been classified by theme have retained a part of the PPT format in order to facilitate everyone's use.
Some word cards are uniformly typeset and can be printed directly into a word wall.
There are also various tian zi ge, bingo, Chinese character practice, and looking at pictures to speak.
