As the border opens, New Zealand has gradually returned to everyone's eyes. Studying abroad + immigration has always been a very popular point. With the update of the green occupation list, everyone has looked around and found that "preschool education" is quite good and is quite suitable in all aspects. As a teacher who has been in the education industry for 7 years, I hope everyone can plan for the future more clearly. Immigration may be your primary purpose, but I believe it is not the only purpose. I hope you choose education and love it.
The early childhood education major is currently in New Zealand, so there is not a big problem with immigration. After completing the studies, you can basically find a job and meet the immigration score. In fact, in our country, we will also improve our quality in future education, so no matter how you look at it, it is a pretty good industry, but Everyone must first know what the daily work of preschool education in New Zealand is?
According to New Zealand's laws, every ten children must have one teacher. In most kindergartens, there is basically a pattern of seven or eight children being equipped with one teacher. In BABIES ROOM and OLD BABIES ROOM, there is at least one teacher for every five children.
1. First of all, every teacher must have a weekly plan every week. There is a main goal of the activity in the weekly plan. This goal is to set the settings based on the preschool children's education goals of the New Zealand Ministry of Education (it is divided into many details, including wellbeing, belonging, contribution, communication, exploration, etc.). The weekly plan includes daily plans, which specifically include outdoor outside, indoor inside, teaching, music time, music & movement time and art work & craft.
The settings of each activity should also take into account the characteristics of different children, because each teacher has his own set of children who need to make independent plans for them, so the settings of the activity should be related to them (link with them), and at the same time, after the end of each day, you should write down the reactions of the day's activity. After the weekly plan is written, it will be posted in the bulletin board for parents in the class, and together with it will also post the monthly plan for the entire class.
2. Monthly plan is more complicated and involves more aspects. Usually, kindergartens give teachers in the same class a meeting and one morning to discuss once a month. The individual planner mentioned just now is a tracking observation and plan that every child has for their different growth periods, and is completed by the teacher.
Each stage requires a lot of observation notes written every day, followed by the learning results learning outcomes, including strategies obtained based on observations, and an assessment of the child's learning and development at this stage, followed by a summary and evaluation of the work in this stage and the next step.
or above is only the planning stage, and more importantly, it is implementation. Therefore, the work of early childhood education is not the imagination of taking care of children. Just take care of the delicious food and fun, and it is still very different from our domestic early childhood education.
How to become a preschool teacher?
