A Case Study On The Implementation Of "Anji Play" In Kindergartens

Plays are the main way of life and learning for young children,as well as an educational activity in kindergartens.Anji Plays is one of the successful examples of Play curriculum reform in preschool education in China.So far,theoretical research on kindergarten plays has achieved great results,promoting the high-quality development of preschool education.However,there are many contradictions and problems in practice,which provide guidance and research space for this study.This study is based on ecological theory and the theory of "living education".Taking A Kindergarten in Guiyang City as a case study,various research methods such as literature review,participatory observation,interview,and case analysis are combined.From the perspective of "activities,interpersonal relationships,and roles" in ecological micro system theory and the curriculum theory of "nature and society are all living textbooks" proposed in "living education",as well as the methodology of "learning by doing,teaching by doing,and seeking progress through doing",the practical state of individual cases is perspective.Through in-depth investigation of the case kindergarten,it was found that the implementation of "Anji Plays" in the kindergarten has achieved preliminary results: "Anji Plays" deepens the improvement of kindergarten teaching and research quality,promotes the diversified development of children’s physical fitness and independent exploration ability,and promotes the transformation of Preschool teacher ’professional ability and education concept.However,there are also shortcomings such as a lack of teaching experience among teachers,unstable construction of teaching staff,lack of deep understanding of Play concepts,and insufficient safety education in Plays.The main reasons are the appropriateness of local culture,the disharmony of environmental creation,the mismatch of kindergarten curriculum,the structural nature of teachers’ professional literacy,and the lack of connectivity between internal and external resources.Based on this,through research on the practice of A Kindergarten and surrounding kindergartens,common problems were found,and suggestions were proposed for the practice of "Anji Play" from the perspectives of ecology and life education theory: firstly,to improve the top-level design and jointly build a learning community;Secondly,strengthen the construction of teachers and improve the mechanism for teacher growth;The third is to respect the play subject and enhance the educational value of plays;Fourth,strictly control all aspects to ensure the safety of children’s plays;The fifth is to establish an ecological gaming environment from an ecological perspective.As one of the successful examples of preschool education game curriculum reform in China,"Anji Play" provides a new path for China’s preschool education reform and development,and a new opportunity for Preschool teacher ’professional development.Based on this,we need to persistently conduct in-depth learning and research on "Anji Play",and explore suitable localization paths for early childhood education from this educational model.
