Big class theme series activities: food

[Theme Generation and Target]

Every child comes from a different family, and they will develop some incorrect eating habits. For example, some children in our class are picky eaters (no milk, soy milk, meat and vegetables), and some children grab vegetables, rice and sprinkle rice with their hands. These bad habits directly affect children's physical development and health, so we chose the theme of "food". The purpose is to help children understand common foods in daily life through this theme, and cultivate children's balanced diet and good eating habits.

[Development of the theme]

Give priority to with "one center and two branches".

In this activity, we focus on "food". First, let children be small chefs to process and make all kinds of delicious food, and gradually lead children into the colorful food world for observation and cognition. Secondly, by letting children be guests in the "doll restaurant", children can develop good civilized eating habits and eating habits in the process of entertainment and being guests.

[environmental creation]

Mainly based on the classification of food, it has created several major areas such as self-selected fruit trees, vegetable processing plants, small food stores, egg, milk and meat platters, and doll restaurants. Each area has all kinds of food and some operating materials: all kinds of picture books, homemade trees, white paper with fruit patterns, all kinds of kitchen utensils, bowls, plates, panels, knives, molds and so on. And some toys for daily use. The creation of these environments allows children to personally participate in real life, with a sense of intimacy and realism.

[Several characteristics of theme development]

1, make full use of food and let children devote themselves wholeheartedly.

During the activity, we prepared a lot of food for children to smell and taste all kinds of fruits, eggs, milk, meat, or dishes cooked by simple cooking methods. They are all in high spirits, and they really appreciate the delicious food. In the process of eating, they cultivate children's good eating habits.

For another example, in a small food store, we put plasticine at the beginning, and the children made cookies and noodles under the guidance of the teacher. But we thought that the food store should let the children really cook food, so we put the mixed dough in. That's another scene. They all washed their hands with sleeves and scrambled to make various noodles, not to mention the excitement. Some also pinch out small dumplings, small wonton stew and so on. Finally, we take the children's snacks to the kitchen and let them taste them. They are eating their own delicious food, and their faces are filled with a sense of accomplishment.

2. Use the foods that children are interested in to calculate the content.

Interest is the source of all children's activities and the premise of children's positive development. Children are familiar with the fruits and vegetables in the activity, have rich life experience and are interested in them because they are delicious and can be tasted. We make full use of these foods for mathematical activities, such as counting, sorting and classifying. Usually, it is difficult to understand mathematical activities. With the addition of these fruits and vegetables, it becomes lively and interesting. Both apples and grapes are bigger than Fang. I help vegetables find friends, fruit dolls and small vegetables to travel and so on. Children make friends with these fruits and vegetables. They actively explore and are willing to discover in activities.

3. Let children make simple meal records and cultivate balanced eating habits.

We designed a "Children's Meal Record Sheet" for him, and let him take the initiative to participate in the record, which is used to simply evaluate his daily meal situation. There are pictures of various foods (fruits, vegetables, meat, eggs, pasta, etc.) on the record sheet. ). After breakfast, lunch and snacks every day, let the children find out the food they have eaten on the record sheet and color it. Before leaving the garden in the afternoon, let's look at the record sheet and recall what we ate today. We think which food is the best, which eats more and which eats less. Teachers give correct evaluation, encourage and praise children who have made progress in diet and are not picky eaters and partial eaters, so as to gradually cultivate children's balanced eating habits.

4, expand the knowledge, let children master the classification of food.

It is difficult to classify children in small classes, but the children in our class have learned the characteristics of all kinds of food and mastered all kinds of food through meal records, so at the end of the theme, we designed a game of "opening a supermarket" to let children consolidate several categories of food and form the concept of categories. Carrying out this activity is not only in line with the existing level of children, but also challenging. It is not only close to children's life, but also can expand children's experience and vision. In the activity, the children are very enthusiastic, willing to participate in handling and buying, and have mastered several kinds of food in happy activities.

[Activity reflection]

The above four points are what I think are the characteristics of the event. Let me talk about the reflection of the activity:

Through this theme activity, children have mastered all kinds of delicious food, enriched their knowledge and broadened their horizons. Children take the initiative to participate in a relaxed and happy environment and experience the fun of making food and sharing it with others. Through various game activities, children have developed good civilized eating habits and good eating concepts. Nowadays, the phenomenon of grasping rice and vegetables is gone, and everyone can finish the meal without throwing it out or wasting it. Children not only are not picky eaters themselves, but also tell others: "This kind of fruits and vegetables are nutritious and should be eaten; You can grow taller by eating everything, and you can't get sick. "

While seeing the children's progress, we also feel the shortcomings:

1, there are still some places in the activity that have not been boldly released. In the future, we should provide various materials for children to fully experience and operate.

For example, the dough in the food store is afraid that children can't make it well, so we realize that children should be allowed to make dough by themselves, and let them observe the mixing process of flour and water and make dough by themselves, so that they will be more involved in making food.

2. In the course of the theme, I know more about fruits, vegetables, meat and pasta, but less about eggs and milk. The theme should be extended to do some exercises and experiences in egg and milk, which will be more comprehensive.

3. Before the theme is launched, measure the height and weight of the child. After the theme is carried out, it is persuasive and has certain reference value to measure it regularly and compare it before and after recording. Although some children who have made great progress in diet have seen and felt the height and weight, it is a pity that no record has been left. I think we should make a scale full of children's interests on the wall of the activity room in the future, draw a table, record the height of each child regularly, and inspire children to be willing to measure and compare their own height, so as to correct some incorrect dietary concepts.

These are my views on "gourmet" activities. Please give your valuable advice.

Delicious food

First, the causes and causes of the theme

Children in small classes leave home for the first time to participate in group activities because of their young age. Children are often emotional before entering the park, so parents often use food to calm their children's emotions. One day, Liu Hanze came to the garden with the special product "Zongzi Sugar". When the children saw it, they talked about it one after another: Where did you buy your candy? What's your name? How come I haven't seen it? I have eaten spiced beans in Shanghai and KFC ... From the topic of children, we have noticed children's interest, that is, food.

Everyone needs food, and food is the driving force for our growth. Different foods contain different nutrients, and the choice of food often affects our health and development. Food has always been accompanied by children's growth, children are familiar with it, and data are easy to collect. And there are many partial eclipse children in our class. With the development of this theme, children can understand the importance of various foods to their health, thus forming the habit of not being partial to food and cherishing food, and forming good eating hygiene habits.

Second, the predicted educational goals.

1, make full use of children's senses to know common foods and cultivate children's basic methods to know things.

2. Educate children not to be partial to food, not picky eaters, and cultivate children's good eating hygiene habits.

Activity 2 Eating habits

Design concept:

Children in small classes are particularly greedy. When it comes to food, they always talk a lot. Only Zeze's children said that they should brush their teeth after eating. Seeing that most children in the class have cavities reminds the teacher how important it is to cultivate children's good eating habits.

I am a healthy baby.

The main purpose of this activity is to let children know the food that is good and bad for their health. Because parents are required to tell their children this knowledge in advance, the children are very interested in the discussion of the activities.

Activity 3: Where to buy food

Design concept:

By letting children visit shopping places such as markets and supermarkets, we can learn about one of people's basic activities-shopping, so that children can know more about food. For various reasons, it is not easy to take children to the supermarket and vegetable market directly, so give this task to parents, ask parents to take their children to participate in these activities, and teachers organize children to discuss.

Discussion: What do you see when you go to the vegetable market and supermarket?

Ze: I see green vegetables, cabbage and corn.

Yi: I saw a big piece of meat.

Activity flow:

1, food pigment

Children in small classes have made great progress in all aspects after two or three months of study. In art, children's understanding of various colors has increased, and their expressive force has also increased. Let the children express their favorite food through this activity.

The teacher prepared all kinds of oil pastels and some drawing paper for the children, and asked them to choose their favorite oil pastels, draw their favorite foods and color them.

Children can boldly imagine and draw their favorite food. Although some graffiti looks simple, judging from the expressions on their faces, they are so serious and devoted.

As soon as the painting was finished, the children took the painting to tell the teacher. What food did he draw? What is that smell? How to eat?

Seven. Focus of activities

What does Altman eat?

The animated image of Altman is known to almost all children.

Today, when talking about what good food to eat, I heard a noise. I walked over and asked, only to know what they were talking about "Altman" eating. Among them, Zhou Zhou said that Altman was the best, so he didn't have to eat. Ze Ze disagreed, saying he would starve to death if he didn't eat. Hao Hao said that Altman needs to eat when he is human, but he doesn't need to eat when he is not human. Zhou Zhou asked me, "What does Altman eat?" The other children are very focused. I was at a loss and had a brainwave. I quickly asked them if Altman was a robot or a person like us. The children all said it was a robot, and I said, "Robots need energy."

Tangyuan Festival

Today is the traditional festival of Yuxi people-in winter, every family eats glutinous rice balls and the whole family is round and round. When I entered the park early in the morning, the children told me that today is the Tangyuan Festival and I want to eat Tangyuan. Then Qiqi said, my mother told me that jiaozi would have a stomachache if he ate too much. Xixi also said that glutinous rice balls are made of a kind of flour.

I talked with them, and I told them that glutinous rice balls are made of sticky flour and ground from glutinous rice. If you use flour and water, it will be as soft as plasticine. If you round it by hand, it will be glutinous rice balls. This kind of flour is not easy to digest and absorb, so you can't eat too much.

Eight. Summary of programme activities

Through teacher's observation, conversation with children and feedback from parents, we found that children have a better understanding of food. For example, I learned a lot about common foods, their nutritional value, the importance of various foods to the body, the importance of cherishing food, and developed some good eating hygiene habits, thus enriching the experience of buying food.

In the process of theme activities, children have always been in the main position, and the generation of themes and the collection of materials are completed by children and parents. Through the cooperation of parents, children are directly involved in shopping, which enriches the perceptual experience. It provides material conditions and opportunities for children to fully imagine, and children can boldly express themselves and freely carry out various exploration activities.

After carrying out the "Good Food" program, the children were full of interest and achieved the expected educational goals, which were affirmed by their parents.
