Chen Heqin once said: Aesthetic education is different from science. It is a relaxed and pleasant education that everyone is willing to receive. It is aimed at all educated people with the goal of cultivating ordinary people who can aesthetically. Through beauty education, people can be kept away from utilitarianism and the mind enters a new spiritual realm. Aesthetic education can increase children's knowledge, promote intellectual development, and cultivate children's sentiments, which is also very important for children's development.
With the advancement of technology, people have gradually realized that the environment has not only economic value, political value, production value, etc., but also aesthetic value. Environmental aesthetic education is different from art-centered aesthetic education. It arouses people's perception of beauty through the scientific cognition and integration experience of the environment. It is a personal aesthetic education.
Based on this, creating a kindergarten environment and creating a beautiful environment for young children is not only realistic and urgent, but also of great significance for further carrying out aesthetic education and improving the education system. So how to create an environment with aesthetic education significance?
01 Reasonable space layout
Reasonable arrangement of functional space according to the functional needs and architectural structure of the kindergarten, and plan reasonable driving lines to provide children with a comfortable and suitable living and learning environment, so as to obtain a relaxed and comfortable spiritual experience. This is the prerequisite for children to feel beauty and create beauty.
creates some changes in the size, width, arc and straight lines of space, three-dimensionalizes the original flat space, sets up small attics, play areas, etc. in the activity room, and sets up tree houses and large ring corridors outdoors, providing children with a new perspective for observation. Make the functional area completely open, or transform the traditional door into a wide and interesting geometric door opening, so that the functional room is open and connected, etc. are conducive to the relaxation of children's physical and mental health, thereby mobilizing all elements to promote the occurrence and formation of children's games and interactions, and providing children with sufficient space to release their nature.
02 Color Harmony
Color Harmony is defined in Emily Vanderpoel in his 1901 "Color Issues" published by Emily Vanderpoel is: "By combining different colors together, they interact and become more beautiful, thus creating a pleasant effect." Unreasonable color matching will make people feel uncomfortable and depressed, so kindergarten color design is required to have both local changes and overall coordination. The colors should be natural and harmonious, which will arouse children's rich imagination and resonance of colors.
In order to achieve color harmony, we share several color design strategies here:
1. Use the same color system to match. Specifically, it is to use the same color to match, such color matching has a strong unity.
2. Use similar colors to match colors. A similar hue refers to a color of 30-60° on the hue circle. Using similar colors can achieve both uniformity and changeability.
3. Use color harmony. Use the adjustment of the hue to contrast the relationship between the hue or complementary hue, and use color matching to achieve a harmonious effect. However, this method is risky. If handled improperly, it is easy to have dazzling and boring psychological feelings. Therefore, it is recommended to use a small area of key colors.
03 Light and shadow atmosphere
Light can change colors, create shadows, emphasize shapes and forms, and even temperature differences. Building space is a container of light. Light and shadow will have different ways, angles, directions and materials to the space, resulting in various spatial perception effects. The planning and design of space can control the angle of natural light entering, the scale, color, transparency, shape of the object projected by light, etc. Creating an interesting light and shadow atmosphere can affect and inspire children's perception of things.
We summarized several tips for creating light and shadow atmosphere based on past experience: 1. Use the density of the occlusion; 2. Use the characteristics of the material; 3. Use colors to superimpose or use them directly. By using these methods in children's space, children's imagination and creativity can be stimulated and the environment can play a greater educational value.
04 Interesting
Material selection and spatial aesthetic elements matching should be used for children's learning, expression and expression.For example, in the processing of spatial interfaces, choose as many different materials as possible, so that children can feel the completely different tactile experiences brought by various materials in their daily lives, and promote children's sensory development.
can also set geometric elements in the space, various points, lines, surfaces, as well as cubes, spheres, and triangles composed of points, lines and surfaces. This not only enriches the experience of the space, but also allows children to have a preliminary experience of the geometric space aesthetics.
space can also trigger interesting behaviors for young children and create convenience for interesting behaviors. For example, creating a world where you can scribble in kindergartens and open to children. Seeing whiteboards or blackboards and chalk can drive children to go up and produce graffiti. Opening them to children is a convenience for this behavior. In addition, you can also create some game spaces, climb walls, slides, trampolines, etc., drive children to go up and play, and help children socialize and play.
