The plant corner in kindergarten is one of the ways to promote children's observation, show children different faces of plants and understand the growing environment of plants. By building a "farm yard", our garden not only beautifies the environment, but also makes children's lives more vivid, interesting and colorful.

In the process of planting plants, children can be inspired to actively observe the growth of plants. Through practical exploration and observation records, the characteristics and changes of plants are discovered, which not only improves children's observation ability, but also lays a strong interest in exploring nature. ?

With the continuous advancement of the new curriculum reform, how to make middle-class children feel more scientific teaching atmosphere, so as to further enhance their scientific knowledge and literacy, has become a common teaching and research topic for preschool teachers. At present, the creation and implementation of natural corner environment is under way, which provides a good opportunity for middle school students to get in touch with nature and learn science.

First, the characteristics of middle school students in natural corner activities

The age of children in the middle class is generally 4 ~ 5 years old. At this age, children's intentional sexual behavior began to develop, and their emotions were more stable than those of 3-year-old children. The consciousness of rules began to sprout, and I also established my self-confidence and was able to be polite and modest in the process of getting along with others. However, their emotional performance is still obvious. They will be happy when they are praised and depressed when they are criticized.

In the teaching stage of middle school children, children's more stable emotions and awareness of rules make the activities of natural corners relatively better, and the process of teachers organizing children to arrange natural corners and learning scientific knowledge by using natural corners is smoother.

On the other hand, middle school students' right and wrong concepts are still vague, so they still need the guidance of kindergarten teachers.

Second, the problems in middle school students' natural corner activities

(A) teachers-oriented, supplemented by children's natural corner environment.

If the main body of the creation of natural corners is teachers rather than children, that is, the creation of natural corners is completely completed by teachers, which will cause two prominent problems. First, teachers may blindly create natural corners according to their own wishes without clearly understanding children's learning ability and interest, so it is difficult to stimulate children's learning interest;

The second is that children have lost the opportunity to create natural corners on their own initiative, that is, to improve their hands-on ability, imagination and knowledge learning ability in this process.

(B) lack of educational value, and become a natural corner of the decorative environment.

The purpose of natural corner environment is to serve teaching activities and enhance children's learning ability. Some teachers often fall into the misunderstanding of formalism when creating natural corner environment, and do not change according to children's interests, themes, seasons and other activities.

Although the natural corner is beautiful and atmospheric, it can even be used as a "scene" in the classroom, but it is not practical, and children do not often carry out activities in the natural corner environment. In this way, the natural corner environment has basically lost its original teaching function and value.

Third, the strategy of the middle class to create a natural corner environment.

(A) to create an overall strategy

Give children the opportunity to create independently.

Children can independently create a natural corner environment, and naturally improve their learning ability in this process.

Therefore, teachers should give children the opportunity to create independently and organize a competition of "striving to be small designers" so that children can set up a natural corner environment according to their own interests. Moreover, in order to make the natural corner environment more in line with most people's interests, teachers can adopt the way of group cooperative learning to screen design works layer by layer.
