题目内容:
Kindergarten outside? Yes,indeed. It’s part of a growing worldwide trend toward outdoor education. The schools are called Forest Kindergartens.
Now the numbers are small in the U. S.,but the idea is well established in Europe, with schools in Scotland, England, and Switzerland. By far most of such schools are in Germany, which has more than 400W aldkindergartens.
Children attending such particular school enjoy a good amount of outdoor education each day,rain or shine. Some lessons are focused on nature ; others are academic topics delivered in a natural setting. In all cases,students are active — not sitting at desks or on mats on the floor but walking, running, jumping, solving problems like how to get the mud off the bottoms of their shoes before their parents find out.
At these forest kindergartens, students learn science by observing and doing it, learn math by applying it to the natural world around them,learn letters and words by putting them together using sights and sounds. The children learn to make comparisons using natural things like apples and rocks. They develop an appreciation for animals and plants in their natural environment — not just by looking at pictures in a book or on a computer screen.
Some of the science activities involve teamwork, like explaining the best way to move a heavy object, showing how a lever(杠杆)works. In other sessions,teachers encourage students to develop their motor skills by building wooden tools such as hammers and knives.
These students also learn how to get along with one another, individually and in a group. They also develop healthy levels of self-confidence,just from being able to do the everyday activities that the school offers.
In a time when so many children are being classified as obese because of long time watching television and playing video games, these outdoor schools help children learn just as much, if not more,from opening their eyes to the world around them.
