Eating, exercising, reading picture books, playing games, and kneading dough mud are the school life that kindergarten children are accustomed to. Nowadays, although they can't go to the kindergarten, what makes the children of the (3rd) class of Dongjing Town Center Kindergarten (HaixinBu) happy is that the "omnipotent" teachers have built an "online colorful castle" for them.
"Today I'm on the disc again!" "I helped my mother clean the table today!" "I've learned to wash the dishes!" "I've been watching the Sanmao Wanderer comics these two days." "My sport today is flat support." ...... In the "Online Colorful Castle" QQ chat group dedicated to the children of middle (3rd) class, parents often post wonderful moments of children's learning and life at home. Innocent and lively children will also send voice messages in the group, and fairy tales are particularly interesting. Class teacher Feng Jun and another teacher, Zhang Ling, will also interact with the children in the group.
Different from the common class groups, these scenes are presented in the four chat rooms of "Eating today is also great", "I am a sports expert", "I love to read every day", and "I am a little helper at home". According to Zhang Ling, the original teacher would combine the children's activities and needs at home every day to recommend some content suitable for children's reading, exercise, healthy diet and so on. There are many interactive messages in the class group, recommended content is often covered, and some of the children's personalized needs are not well met. Teachers then thought of combining the needs of parents and children at home, forming a personalized small group of classes, and further deepening the concept of "home collaboration". "At the beginning of the group, the teachers introduced the role of each group to the parents in detail, and the parents selectively joined the group according to the actual situation and needs of their children." Zhang Ling said.
"On the one hand, children are naturally active and fun, usually have small partners to play together, and it will be somewhat uncomfortable to leave the kindergarten for a while." In addition, kindergarten children do not have to get up on time like primary and secondary school students to take online lessons, and it is inevitable that there will be irregular life during the stay at home. Feng Jun, who has been engaged in early childhood education for a long time, has a clear understanding of the children's temperament. Some time ago, some parents told her about the difficulties of bringing a baby at home, hoping that the teacher could give guidance. After the "online colorful castle" was launched, many of the parents' troubles were solved. "My baby now wants to post photos and videos in the group every day to share with teachers and other children." A parent said this to Feng Jun.
"Classes have characteristics, months and months have activities, weeks and weeks have exchanges, and every day there is interaction." Gao Ying, director of The Kindergarten in Dongjing Town Center, introduced that in order to make the children's stay-at-home time colorful and interesting, the kindergarten encourages teachers to carry out various forms of online activities according to their own class conditions, and the home and school work together to accompany the children to grow up healthily and happily.
