Yesterday was the half-day open day of the kindergarten. The little girl entered the kindergarten at the end of February. She fell ill repeatedly in March and took two weeks of leave. She also took two days of leave in April. Perhaps because of her small stature, she obviously The child's gross motor ability is poor. He can't jump on both feet and stand on one foot for a long time. However, after more than two months in the kindergarten, the child's progress has been clearly seen.
I received a notice from the teacher a few days ago that there will be a half-day open day for parents on Friday, and parents are required to provide washbasins and towels. They said that they must sign in after 8:30 on Friday morning. So yesterday I slowly waited for the little girl to sleep until 7:30 before waking her up, thinking that I would enter the kindergarten at the same time as the little girl.
After breakfast, I went to the entrance of the kindergarten and discovered that my child needed to arrive early. There were several children and teachers on each side of the gate. When they saw parents coming in, they waved the bouquets in their hands and said: "Warm welcome."
I took the little girl into the kindergarten in a hurry. My schoolbag was packed in a big backpack. The girl called to me: "Mom, where is my schoolbag?"
I said: "Mom, come into the classroom with you. I will carry it for you. I will give it to you later." You take it."
The girl pointed at my backpack and shouted, "I want to carry my schoolbag myself." So I took out my schoolbag and she carried it on her own and climbed up to the second floor. When I entered the second floor, I saw two teachers at the door, telling me the location of the classroom. One of the teachers told me: "Don't look at how small the baby is. He has such strong hands-on ability and can do anything."
Walking to the door of the classroom, the girl put her schoolbag into the grid with her name. Mothers were standing outside the corridor, and the children were sitting in rows. The teacher was telling them about the upcoming regional activities. The girl was taken into the bathroom by a teacher and her seat was arranged.
The classroom is divided into three areas for activities. Each child can choose which area to go to. There are areas focusing on reading, drawing, and literacy; there are areas focusing on making clay and creating. ; There is an area for playing with building blocks and puzzle toys.
The little girl and two other children chose to go to the reading corner. They just started drawing, and then interacted with the teacher and learned words. They had a lot of fun. I sat next to him and his little eyes occasionally glanced at me. , but I have always played seriously with my classmates and teachers.
After playing for about twenty minutes, the music started playing, and I noticed that the girl stood up immediately to put on her shoes. I was feeling strange when the teacher next to me said, "The activity time is over, and we have to go downstairs to do exercises." The children were queuing up to go to the toilet or drink water, and the parents went to the morning exercise area on the first floor to wait." After about ten minutes, the children started lining up to enter. There were three small classes, and the entire small playground was packed. There were so many parents, and the crowd was buzzing. The mothers were waiting with anticipation to watch the children's wonderful morning exercises.
The morning exercise performance began. I saw the little girl doing exercises seriously with the teacher. Although she is small, although her movements sometimes seem a little slow, she earnestly followed through various movements such as clapping her hands, stomping her feet, turning in circles, and twisting. Waist, etc., every action is done well.
After doing two morning exercises, let one group of children take turns to hold hands and connect a hole, and let the other group of children drill through it. The little girl is smaller, so she has to raise her hands. If it's a bit laborious, the teacher will go over and remind her.
After drilling the hole, two groups of children sat on the floor with their feet straight up. The other two groups of children had to jump up from the legs of the children sitting on the ground. Step over.
When I was watching the little girl from the side, I was saying to the parent next to me, "My little girl has to lift her legs to cross over her classmates. This is very difficult for her because she is not strong enough." "Immediately afterwards, I saw a male classmate not keeping his feet together when he stepped over the girl. As a result, he stepped over the girl with one foot and knocked her down to the floor.
The little girl started crying immediately. The teacher picked her up and went to the room to comfort her. I followed her to the room to see if the little girl had hit anything. I saw the little girl crying with snot and tears. She was so aggrieved.
The teacher said to the girl, "The classmate was careless. His feet did not move together, so he bumped into you. The teacher will criticize him later."
Me I asked her: "Where did it hurt, baby?" The little girl shook her head, probably because she was frightened. I hugged her, and she felt much more comfortable and stopped crying. The teacher said: "We still have to do exercises to show mommy. . ”
I took the initiative to follow the teacher to the playground again. After seeing her return to the team, she immediately started doing exercises seriously and happily, completely forgetting what happened just now.
After the exercises, the parents returned to the classroom next door, waiting for the children to appear. It turned out that the next stage was various competitions. Each group of five children starts the first group's dressing and shoe-wearing competition; the second group's towel-folding competition; the third group's book-folding competition; the fourth group's backpack-carrying competition; and the fifth group's toy competition.
The little girl was assigned to the towel folding competition in the second group. The little girl didn’t quite understand the rules of the game. After watching the other children folding the towels, she slowly started folding the towels one by one, even though it was the last one. One, but it can be considered a mission accomplished.
Thinking about it not long ago, I folded the sweat towel in my hand from time to time. It turned out that the teacher had said this, so the child consciously did it when he got home.
After the game, the parents were invited to the first floor and saw that the small playground was full of small basins and small stools. It turned out that the teacher asked parents to bring basins a while ago because he wanted the children to give them to the parents. Let's wash our feet.
The parents sat on small stools, and the children stood on the side. Some came wearing sandals because the teacher had told them in advance. The children helped their mothers wash their feet carefully with their small hands.
I am wearing cloth shoes today, so I have no plans to let my children wash my feet. I see that the kindergarten teachers have good intentions and let the children be grateful to their parents. But when faced with a group of three-year-old children, do they really know how to be grateful? In fact, I feel that this is a "drama" and a bit artificial. I was confused, and I felt a little embarrassed sitting there. I twisted up the towel and said to the girl, "Come and wipe my mother's hands and face."
The girl is serious. The ground wiped my face. When the teacher came next to me, he said to the child: "Help mommy wash her feet."
The girl immediately made a move to help me take off my shoes, and I immediately said: "Baby, no, wait for mommy." You are injured and you can wash it for me when you can’t wash it yourself.”
The teacher said, “Then help mommy pat my back.” The girl immediately took up her little hands and patted my back. Then the children presented self-made Mother's Day gifts, and every parent received a lot of love from their children.
After the activity, it was lunch time for the children. The children began to take turns going to the bathroom, washing their hands, and drinking water. When getting food, they queued up and waited for a table of children to get their food. When we start eating together, the teacher will also teach the children some polite words. Most of the children follow the teacher's instructions.
I saw the little girl taking the initiative to eat by herself in the kindergarten. It was completely different from how she behaved at home. There is an atmosphere in the kindergarten where the children all eat by themselves, so the little girl has good autonomy in eating.
At home, because I was always worried that she wouldn’t eat, and wanted her to eat more, I always couldn’t help but feed her, so the child was less willing to eat by herself. Seeing the children eating happily, the parents left the kindergarten one after another.
It is so gratifying to watch the children grow. The little girl started crying when she entered the kindergarten. Now she likes to go to the kindergarten, participate in activities, listen to instructions, and can do whatever she learned in the kindergarten at home.
She started to refuse me to help her get dressed, and wanted to wear it herself. I learned to jump on two feet in kindergarten. Wherever I went, I turned into a little frog and started to jump and jump, or stand on one foot. The songs I learned are often hummed at home, and I also take the initiative to learn to fold clothes and so on.
In fact, as long as parents let go, children can do well. Sometimes it is not that children cannot do it, but that parents do not give them opportunities to learn and try.
