I would like to ask some questions about the kindergarten curriculum

The kindergarten curriculum refers to all activities provided by the kindergarten to children to gain beneficial experiences in order to promote the healthy development of children's physical and mental health. The kindergarten curriculum is an activity provided to young children in kindergarten, which includes children's life activities and play activities in kindergarten, as well as children's sports and learning activities in kindergarten. The kindergarten curriculum includes both formal curriculum, such as educational activities organized by teachers, and non-formal curriculum, such as children's independent play activities and sports; It includes a variety of self-directed activities for young children, as well as a potential curriculum such as a kindergarten environment.

Therefore, the kindergarten curriculum is the core of kindergarten education and the key to achieving a happy life and healthy development of young children.

Historically, there have been three different value orientations in the curriculum: disciplinary orientation, activity orientation and experience orientation. The kindergarten curriculum has also experienced these three orientations in the course of historical development, from the early subject curriculum to the modern activity curriculum and experiential curriculum.

In the practice of kindergarten curriculum in China, there are still a large number of subject-oriented courses, which aim at subject knowledge and skills, emphasizing that children master subject knowledge and skills in curriculum learning and obtain cognitive development. The subject curriculum focuses on the knowledge system of the subject, and rarely takes into account the interests and needs of children, and its implementation requires teachers to stimulate children's learning motivation and use various means to guide children to learn subject courses. Therefore, the implementation of subject curricula is often a highly structured educational activity.

The activity-oriented curriculum believes that the kindergarten curriculum is an activity arranged for young children, so the curriculum should pay attention to the interests and needs of young children, and organize activities on the basis of children's interests and needs. Children are naturally active and active, so the kindergarten curriculum should be organized and implemented around the activities of young children. The activity curriculum emphasizes the autonomy and initiative of children in the implementation of the curriculum, and focuses on the process of curriculum implementation activities rather than the result.

Therefore, the implementation of activity-oriented curriculum is often a low-to-medium structured educational activity.

Compared with the school curriculum, the kindergarten curriculum has many characteristics of its own, and the biggest difference lies in the difference in the objects of education. The kindergarten curriculum is aimed at children between the ages of 3 and 6, and their learning depends on their physical and mental development. Therefore, the kindergarten curriculum should fully take into account the age characteristics and development level of children, and adopt more suitable forms of activities for children.

Activity-oriented kindergarten curriculum is a kind of curriculum suitable for children's learning characteristics and development level, and children's life, games and learning, sports and other activities in the kindergarten are the best courses for children's learning and development.

It refers to some of the courses involved in kindergarten, such as safety knowledge, as well as enlightenment knowledge, such as pinyin, numbers, arithmetic, which can improve children's language skills, as well as physical education and outdoor activities.

The kindergarten curriculum is a professional curriculum developed for kindergarten students. The content of the kindergarten curriculum is pinyin, arithmetic, finals, initials, creativity, activity, and thinking skills.

The kindergarten curriculum refers to the curriculum suitable for the development of preschool children for the ages of 3 to 6 years.

The content learned in kindergarten is the kindergarten curriculum, mainly including handicrafts, dance, simple knowledge, learning to sing nursery rhymes, football, basketball, painting, etc., most kindergartens do not learn cultural knowledge.

At present, the dominant concept of kindergarten curriculum in China is the activity theory, that is, "kindergarten curriculum is a means to achieve the purpose of kindergarten education, is to help children obtain useful learning experience, in order to promote the comprehensive and harmonious development of their body and mind of various activities" This definition points out the whole content of kindergarten curriculum from a broad perspective, that is, all activities of children in the kindergarten belong to the scope of kindergarten curriculum.

The first stage of the kindergarten curriculum is the subject and field course, the second stage is the theme comprehensive course, and the third stage is the Reggio Emilia program teaching that has been practiced in kindergartens since 2000, the STEAM course that has been popular in the past two years, and other imported courses, etc., as well as a variety of beautiful courses given by many kindergartens themselves.

The kindergarten curriculum is based on the characteristics of children's physical and mental development and specific social and cultural background, purposefully and systematically organized and implemented and throughout the child's daily life experience, this experience is a kind of intermediary for the kindergarten to exert educational influence, in order to guide and promote the development of children in the direction of the talents needed by the society.

This definition not only reflects the basic characteristics of the general curriculum, such as purpose, planning, structure, etc., but also reflects the uniqueness and irreplaceability of kindergarten education.
