I smiled and was immediately understood by Big B without thinking. Then I laughed even louder, as if Big B found something strange in my smile. "You must have chosen farming?" ! 」
Ha ha! My husband knows me well, which is worth it. I love going to the forestry department!
In fact, as early as April this year, I began to do a lot of homework in the club. Hehe, although I am the third child, there is a big gap between my sister and my brother. I still have to update myself before their information about learning reaches hehe. So, I know many parents must have the same problem before entering school, but I will do my homework before entering school. After all, raising children is easy, and helping children make choices is the most painful!
Next, I will introduce my homework direction!
1. What do parents want to give their children? Bilingual? Waldorf. Duhamel Du Monceau Terry? Young man?
Bilingual: Make my own settings, because we have a stupid pill and crooked fruit at home. Of course, bilingualism will be ruled out at first. It is suggested that in order to make children bilingual, parents should accompany their children to review or find an English cram school. After all, language depends on the environment, just like you and I will speak Mandarin and Taiwanese to our elders from an early age.
What is Waldorf? Compared with ordinary kindergartens, Waldorf Garden does not teach phonetic notation or learn to write. It is characterized by being close to nature and attaching importance to creativity and imagination. Have an established learning rhythm and emphasize art education.

What is Montessori? In the environment, the neatly arranged desks and chairs are clearly distinguished from traditional classrooms, while Montessori teaches children not to sit in chairs, but to arrange them like "home"; Without subject teaching, learning from life and using special teaching AIDS to "work" all adopt mixed-age teaching. (Excerpt-Parent-Child Commonwealth Magazine)
Public kindergarten: that is, public kindergarten, which is attached to primary school, has mixed-age and age-divided teaching. Age-divided teaching is to divide classes, small classes and middle classes according to age? And so on. Not every public school has small classes. Do you study for half a day or all day? It will be above the middle class of the masses and young children all day; Mixed age means teaching in the same class regardless of age. Basically, it is to let older children study with children and cultivate responsibility and responsibility. There are all kinds of mixed-age and mixed-age special courses.
Register in April every year, depending on the number of places, and then draw lots for enrollment in early May. Kaohsiung has no restrictions on the hukou area, and the information content varies from north to south according to the regulations of the kindergarten you want to attend!
2. It is suggested that the transportation time by car should be within 15 minutes, so that children can arrive immediately if they have something to do temporarily; My experience is that I forgot my textbook and kettle, and then called my mother for help, haha XD.
3. Environment is also a necessary reference range for children to make decisions. For example, is the bathroom far from the classroom? Worried that children who are still in kindergarten will have a need for time, but they have to run a long way to go to the toilet?
4. Teaching Purpose At present, both public and private kindergartens are open to visit the campus. As parents, we should also be considerate of the teacher's class time. We can make a phone call to ask about the visit time first, and reflect with the teachers whether the teaching direction is consistent with our own ideas.
5. nutritious lunch/snacks usually, children have enough food. This is what we are most satisfied with as parents. Don't forget to eat and drink when the children are about to enter school. After all, the problem of "dirty" products still needs parents to check. Usually, when we look at the monthly meal table, there will be pre-planned dishes. Does the school build its own kitchen or outsource meals? Do you eat organic or have your own garden at school? This is also the basic condition for choosing a school.
6. Number of teachers/classes Generally speaking, in addition to a teacher, a class will be allocated to an assistant who graduated from the infant nursing department. Children will have high demand when they are ignorant, and the number of classes is also a reference range. My expectation is no more than 15 children in a class.
7. Tuition private tuition is on the high side, and there is a difference between bilingual and regional tuition, which is the monthly fee and registration fee. Other public schools, such as primary schools, only charge registration fees once a semester, and miscellaneous fees are extra.
Apart from teaching, I probably learned most of these understandings when diving. I preset 3-5 happy schools, and then come to the scene to see the environment, and then slowly consider and make a choice. The so-called people must not be perfect, so don't expect to have a perfect school.
Set your own priorities: teaching 1, environment 2, catering 3, and teachers 4 change jobs as needed. Of course, there will be voices from all directions in the process of children's learning. Remember! What do you and your family want to give your child? Only when you make a decision can you decide your child's future! And what we want to give Hehe is "a happy learning environment"!
