First, the goal consciousness is weak, and the activity process lacks real attention to the goal.
Activity goal is not only the starting point of educational activity design, but also the destination of teaching design; It is not only the basis for choosing teaching content, but also the standard for evaluating teaching activities. However, in the practice of health education, we often see that teachers pay more attention to the design of activities and often ignore the research on the objectives of activities; The source of most activity goals is either copied from reference books or written casually by teachers, which is difficult to play its due guiding role; In the teaching process, teachers often only pay attention to the completion of knowledge and skills. As for those emotional and attitude goals that focus on children's development, such as initiative, optimism, cooperation, courage, self-confidence, interest in participating in activities, habits and so on. Because there is nothing corresponding to them in the process of activities, they appear empty, empty and dispensable, leading to the loss of goals.
Second, equate children's health education activities with health classes.
Children's health education activities mainly refer to the educational activities designed and organized by teachers for children to maintain and promote children's physical and mental health, as well as teachers' health guidance for children's daily life. It should be admitted that the form of children's health education can not be separated from "health class". Only through teachers' planned, purposeful and meticulous teaching design can children be better guided and inspired to explore, understand and master some health common sense that children are not easy to understand, and health behavior skills that they are not easy to master or need systematic training, such as "Go to kindergarten happily", "Care for our eyes" and "Don't walk with strangers" organized by us. Another example is to happily organize children to participate in winter exercise and outdoor sports activities, so that children can continuously improve their physical and mental health under the guidance of purposeful and planned teachers.
Although health class is an important part of children's health education activities, it cannot be equated. The starting point and destination of children's health education is to cultivate children's healthy behavior, make children develop a healthy lifestyle and improve their quality of life. Therefore, the content of children's health education involves all aspects of children's lives, and health education should permeate and implement every link of daily life such as entering the park, doing morning exercises, doing morning exercises, eating, sleeping, washing, free activities, playing games and leaving the park. For example, children are young and weak. Teachers should not only give proper care and guidance to children's lives, but also guide them to pay attention to safety. Because children are young and ignorant, their self-protection ability and foresight ability are poor, they should pay attention to the improvement of their awareness of prevention and self-protection ability in daily life. In addition, instruct children how to wash their hands in their daily lives, urge them to protect the sanitation and neatness of the environment, cultivate good behavior habits such as not picky eaters, happy and quiet naps, correct children's bad hygiene habits, and ensure the normal development of the body; Attention should be paid to guiding children to do physical exercise, making their own sports equipment with waste materials, such as making string bells with bottle caps, making paper sticks with calendar paper and other sports equipment, and cultivating children's interest in sports activities and good habits of active exercise from an early age are all important contents of children's health education. Therefore, teachers should really realize the necessity of health education in daily life, so as to truly safeguard and promote children's health.
Thirdly, children's mental health is still neglected.
"Health" includes two aspects: physical health and mental health. Practice and research also show that they are mutually restrictive and closely related. Physical health provides a material basis for mental health, and mental health is also a necessary condition for physical health. Only when a person's physical and mental health is in good condition and develops in harmony with each other can he be regarded as real health. But when it comes to health, people tend to pay more attention to physical health and ignore mental health, especially for young children. As mentioned above, teachers find that children have unhealthy eating habits that need to be corrected, but they are not good at reasoning with children through clever methods. Instead, they choose to reprimand them during meals and let them cry while eating, which will not be good for their physical and mental development; For example, adults use intimidation to remind children not to get close to dangerous places, which will make children feel scared and so on. These practices will affect the effect of children's health education.
Children's mental health education is a process of improving children's mental health knowledge, attitude and behavior, providing useful learning experience, gradually enhancing children's own psychological strength, improving their psychological quality, consciously and actively generating and forming various behaviors and habits beneficial to themselves, society and the nation, and improving their ability to adapt to and improve social life. If you can keep a happy mood and form a lively and optimistic character; Self-awareness, self-confidence and self-esteem; Respect others and be able to live in harmony with others; Have a certain ability to adapt to the social environment, resist setbacks, be not afraid of difficulties and be brave in struggle; The ability to identify others and their emotions, the ability to adjust their emotions, etc. , are important contents in current kindergarten health education, which must be paid attention to. The concept of "paying equal attention to body and mind" put forward in the "Outline" should be effectively implemented in our educational actions.
Fourth, the concept of "health first" needs to be integrated into education in other fields.
The outline emphasizes that kindergartens should put the promotion of children's health at the top of their work, and preschool education should be integrated. At the same time, the characteristics of children's physical and mental development and learning also determine that early childhood education needs a high degree of integration. This requires us to integrate the concept of "health first" when we carry out activities in any field. For example, in art activities, remind children not to put fingers, markers, colored mud and other things in their mouths; Cultivate children's good eating and sleeping habits in scientific activities; Cultivate children's inner healthy behaviors such as self-confidence, tolerance, cheerful mood, harmonious personality and harmonious interpersonal relationship in language and social learning activities; At the same time, in educational practice, we will also find that the contents and forms of education in other fields have further influenced children's learning of health knowledge, the change of health attitude and the formation of health behavior, such as catchy nursery rhymes, interesting riddles, vivid pictures and fascinating inquiry activities. It can arouse children's desire to know their own body, their interest in healthy food and their yearning for healthy behavior. Therefore, we should be good at helping children achieve some health education goals in other educational fields, bearing in mind "health first".
Of course, there are still many problems in children's health education activities, such as children's initiative and enthusiasm in health education activities have not been mobilized, and the relationship between adult protection and children's independence has not been straightened out. These are all expected to be further studied and solved by us.
