Question
A child washes his hands and breaks his skin. Teacher Zhang said nothing to do with me. What do you think about this?
Reference answer
1. Refining and presenting opinions
Teacher Zhang not only failed to deal with the wounds in time when a child was injured, but also shirked responsibility, saying that it’s not his own business and he didn’t recognize the teacher’s responsibility. The behavior seriously violated the requirements of the "Professional Standards for Kindergarten Teachers (Trial)".
2. Analysis and demonstration
"Professional Standards for Kindergarten Teachers (Trial)" emphasizes that teachers "should care for children, attach importance to children’s physical and mental health, and put the protection of children’s life safety in the first place."
(1) Children break their skin while washing their hands and explain to wash their hands. There are hidden dangers in the environment of the room, and the nursery teacher should ensure that the bathroom environment is clean and tidy to prevent children from falling and being injured when washing their hands.
(2) When a child is injured, the teacher should deal with the child’s wound as soon as possible to ensure the child’s life safety. Then care and comfort the children to ensure their mental health.
(3) When a child is injured, the teacher should treat the wound first, solve the problem, and ensure the safety of the child. Afterwards, you should reflect on your mistakes in your work in a timely manner, and improve the content of follow-up work, rather than shirk responsibility.
3. Implement the solution
As a kindergarten teacher, when a child washes his hands and breaks his skin, he should do this:
(1) When a child is injured, the teacher should check the wound for the child as soon as possible, confirm the size of the wound, and bandage it in time. If it is serious, it should be sent to the hospital for treatment in time. At the same time, soothe young children and avoid causing psychological shadows to them.
(2) After treating the wound, the teacher should communicate with the parents in a timely manner, clarify the condition of the child, eliminate the concerns of the parents, and avoid conflicts between homes.
(3) Communicate with the childcare staff to clean the bathroom in time to ensure that the bathroom is clean and tidy, so as to prevent more children from falling and being injured when washing their hands.
(4) Teachers must emphasize safety issues in future teaching activities, subtly guide children to pay attention to safety under any circumstances, and reduce the incidence of injuries. For example, it is possible to carry out teaching activities related to the theme of "I can wash hands" to guide children to be aware of safety awareness such as not playing in the water or falling down during the process of washing their hands.
