How to be a mentally healthy preschool teacher

First, get into the role and be happy.

"The teacher's first role is' liar'-deceiving children's confidence and success." This is a sentence I read in Lin Huamin's book Becoming a First-class Teaching Expert. Yes, kindergarten teachers are even more "big liars". We lied to our children and lied to ourselves, making our children happy and ourselves happy.

Education and teaching in kindergartens are entertaining, and "learning while learning" is advocated. Many curriculum models are vivid and childlike. Because of the age characteristics of children, simple preaching is unacceptable to children, and at this time, the superb skills of "liar teachers" can be fully demonstrated. Many activities will use animal characters to attract children's attention, such as music games-wolves and rabbits. Teachers always play the role of wolves and children play the role of rabbits. During the activity, the wolf caught the rabbit and pulled everyone into the animal kingdom at once, having a good time. If any child doesn't follow the routine, the "liar teacher" will only pretend to eat rabbits with wide eyes, and those "rabbits" will listen to you and swim with you in a happy game. Enter the role and feel childlike innocence, and you will find that working in kindergarten is so happy.

Second, feel childlike innocence and touch yourself.

We often say, "Give someone a rose, and there is fragrance in your hand." As long as you have love and a sense of responsibility, you can solve your troubles at work. Faced with noisy children, complicated things, tense and long class hours ... who won't breed boredom? I'm tired and confused. However, isn't this self-destruction? Instead of changing the world and external environment, why not adjust your mentality and change yourself? Life is short and career is long. We should be kind to ourselves and be happy.

Whenever I am in a bad mood and sit in the classroom in anger, the group of "little guys" will come around and call out "Mom" affectionately, and the anger in my heart will disappear with the sweet voice. When the alarm clock rang, I tied my hair at random and hurried to the classroom, and the group of children affectionately called "Sister". I am in a daze and my heart is full of happiness. When the little boy was scolded by me for being naughty, fighting and destroying toys, and my mood was mixed with a trace of anger, the little boy walked around, didn't remember "hatred", casually stuck to my side and shouted "teacher" I was instantly surrounded by love and moved by this innocent innocence. Be kind to children, feel childlike innocence, learn to "forget" like children, and there is happiness when there is love.

Third, make reasonable arrangements and enrich yourself.

Kindergarten work is busy, complicated, meticulous and exhausting. Everyone feels tired. Lincoln said, "As long as you have happiness in mind, most people can get what they want." . We should arrange complicated work reasonably and learn to have fun while busy.

The weather in September is unbearable. In the face of more than 50 children, we are always as busy as a bee: after coaxing one child, we cried several children; I found a child and ran away from several others ... I will teach young children to queue up to drink water in the future; After a while, teach the children to urinate and queue up to wash their hands; Teach them to follow the rules of eating snacks and lunch for a while; For a period of time, they should be taught how to play with toys ... children often have incontinence and vomiting. We are all so busy with sore throat that we are exhausted. In order to let the children adapt to the study life in kindergarten as soon as possible, we also conduct home visits from door to door to eliminate the anxiety, anxiety and attachment of the children when they first enter kindergarten. Parents' cordial reception and words of thanks are as warm as hot tea.

Then the tense and happy classroom teaching also kicked off, and one piece of housekeeping followed:

Establish class routines, cultivate children's behavior norms, … say and do over and over again. If you lack love and patience, you will definitely feel bored and tired. But when you see the innocent smiling face, your heart should be full of vitality and happiness; When you see dozens of pairs of trusting and eager eyes staring at you, your heart should be full of pride and loftiness; Seeing that so many parents agree with our work and are willing to communicate with us, we should have a sense of accomplishment in our work.

Although the work in kindergarten is hard and tiring, we can feel more happiness as long as we finish the work in a down-to-earth manner and have a reasonable division of labor. Years of work experience tells us that as a front-line child educator, the work at the beginning, middle and end of the term has long been in everyone's mind. As long as you finish the work at each stage carefully and don't overstock the workload, you will find that the original days are so full and wonderful.

Fourth, communicate sincerely and be happy.

Kindergarten and parents have the same purpose, that is, everything is for the children. Doing a good job of home-school contact can not only better promote the synchronous education between home and school, but also better serve our education and teaching, make teachers feel the joy of hard work and harvest, and improve the happiness index of work. Smile, sincerity and enthusiasm are the best medicine for every teacher to do a good job in family contact.

Home cooperation is an educational form in which kindergartens and families cooperate and communicate with each other to promote children's comprehensive and healthy physical and mental development. Visible. Family cooperation is a bilateral interactive activity. Kindergartens and families should be in an active position in preschool education. Only in this way can the quality of preschool education be improved. Parents' encouragement, understanding and support for our work will give us motivation to work. We manage a large number of children in a class every day. They love to cry and make trouble, and it is inevitable that they will stumble. Parents' understanding and encouragement will make us forget the troubles and chores at work and feel happy at work. For example, not long ago, a child was bitten by another child because of carelessness. I regret to explain to the parent, who casually said, "It doesn't matter, children bite only when they are not sensible. It's really hard for your teacher to manage so many children. " It is such a sentence that makes my heart feel warm like it is bathed in the winter sunshine. This is our greatest encouragement. Parents can understand and cooperate with our criticism and education, understand that it is not easy to take care of children, feel gratified that children have made progress, and do not seek perfection. These are our greatest comforts.

Fifth, care about colleagues and warm yourself.

It is destiny takes a hand that we can help each other in the same boat, and a person's life is short. Working together is a kind of fate. There is no need to hold a grudge and haggle over every ounce because of disagreement. More tolerance and generosity will broaden your horizons. Of course, we can create a platform to exchange feelings, such as birthday parties, annual parties, mutual visits and so on. , will bring the feelings between colleagues closer. What's wrong with feeling good? For example, a few days ago, teachers in our small class gathered at Mr. Chang's house to hold a birthday party for colleagues in a foreign land. At ordinary times, everyone in kindergarten is very hard and busy, and there is no time to sit down and talk. That night, everyone held a word, told all the joys and sorrows at work, talked about the usual awkward words, talked about the tacit understanding at work, confided in each other and exchanged ideas. All the bumps between colleagues are solved here. Everyone's face is filled with a happy smile, and the warm and warm scene still warms every teacher's heart. It is worthwhile to work in such a harmonious period of time, no matter how hard and tired it is.
