Comment on Qinghai Science and Technology Museum —— Composition of Qinghai Science and Technology Museum

Qinghai Science and Technology Museum is located in Xining City. This is an exhibition hall full of high-tech sense of the future. It not only tells the experience of human high-tech frontier technology, but also introduces some historical and cultural knowledge, which is very suitable for taking children to visit. Share with you the impressions of Qinghai Science and Technology Museum.

Once, I asked the students in my class a question: "If a lovely and friendly alien comes to the earth and you like him very much, where do you want to take him so that he can have an understanding of the earth?"

Junior high school students have entered the shy stage, but at this time most students raised their hands and answered a variety of questions, which made each other laugh from time to time. The top votes and reasons are: Science and Technology Museum (to know the latest scientific and technological achievements of human beings and what they may look like in the future), museum (to know how humans come and other species), supermarket (to know the daily cost), vegetable market (what we humans eat) and my home (the daily life of ordinary people).

For the person you like, children always want to share what they think is the best with him, which shows the position of science and technology museum in children's minds. Before "Action of Roots", I went to dozens of science and technology museums, not only to see what was displayed in the museums, but also to see how it was displayed in the museums. How did children of different ages and genders react to the same exhibit?

"Three-division study tour" pays attention to the development of the whole person, and scientific literacy is a must. The Science and Technology Museum is a good place for children's scientific enlightenment. Therefore, when doing a whole-person study tour, students will be arranged to go to the Science and Technology Museum for 2-4 hours, and the students will gain a lot. Now share their experiences in study tour with their parents. Different science and technology museums have different themes and characteristics. Here are a few examples of * * *, and draw inferences.

The exhibits in the science and technology museum are different in difficulty, which can be divided into at least these categories according to the presentation method, such as pictures, words, videos, models, experimental devices and so on.

Different exhibits are suitable for children of different ages, and the methods of guidance are different.

How old do people go to the Science and Technology Museum?

Some people think that the science and technology museum is only suitable for children, but it is not, as long as you are curious, curious and interested. (In Ode to Joy, Ricky went to the Science Museum to experience electrostatic explosion and other activities, which became a beautiful moment in Andy's memory. See how men with high IQ pursue women.

This is true when the age is pushed up, and so is it when it is pushed down. Infant is a period of rapid development of cranial nerves. Different things give different stimuli to infants, which will promote the optimization of their nervous structure.

If the child is under three years old, most of the children at this time do not have the ability to operate experiments. You just need to hold him or hold his hand, point to the picture or model and say "this is". You will find the child staring at the exhibits for a long time. If he has any questions, you can answer them simply. After answering a few questions, don't forget to add, "As long as you like to ask questions, you will know more when you are old."

Cell model of Gansu Science and Technology Museum

For example, the child looks up here and asks, "Dad, what is this?" You can say, "This is a model of cells." The child asked, "What is a cell?"

You can say, "The tiny things that make up a person, such as our skin, are made up of this tiny thing called a cell.

Of course, plants such as flowers, cats and dogs are also made up of very small cells. "

note:

1, there is no need to avoid new words, because this stage is an important period for children to acquire new words. As long as the new words are meaningful and can be observed, they can be shared with children.

2. Try to use parents' language as an example, and give examples that are close to children's lives. Qualitative and quantitative, it is best to add appropriate strokes and vivid expressions.

If the child is 3-6 years old, at this time, the child has certain activity ability. In addition to the above observation numbers and models, you can also point to Chinese characters and read them to your children. After listening, you can do some simple (a few keys, a little effort) simulation experiments. This stage is a sensitive period for children's symbols, and you can explore the world around you more skillfully with your sense of touch.

Lunar Rover Model of Gansu Science and Technology Museum

For example, this exhibit is a simulated lunar rover. Children only need to press a few keys to observe the phenomenon of the lunar rover, such as marching, retreating and taking pictures. Parents can share some background knowledge, such as how long the Yutu lunar rover stayed on the moon and what it did. There is no need to prepare lessons, parents can check it on their mobile phones. This is an impromptu study tour. You can learn what you see and extend it a little.

If the child is 7- 12 years old, the child already has certain independent reading ability (when he is seven or eight years old, he needs parents' reference). They can choose the exhibits they are interested in to read and operate, and most of the words involved in the operation are easy to understand. Parents should guide their children by choosing suitable observation objects and guiding simple analysis.

Model of prying the earth in Gansu Science and Technology Museum (with experimental function)

For example, above:

Children will press the pole, some children only press one, and some children all press it once to observe the performance of children's stress. Often those children who are slow and attentive when pressing all the poles will ask questions and find out the reasons once they show an exploratory thinking.

At the other extreme, when the child is standing in the same place, you can smile and say encouragingly, "Baby, try it." When the child presses one of them, you can ask, "What's that feeling?" He might say, "You have to press down hard to pry up the earth."

You said, "Oh, are the others the same? Do you want to try? " The children tried it one by one and said, "The strength is different."

You ask, "Which is the strongest? Which is the smallest? " The child said, "This is the biggest and this is the smallest."

You will ask, "What caused this?" When the child doesn't know, you continue to ask, "What are these three devices the same? What's the difference? " Child: "The earth is the same, the poles are different in length, and the force of the poles is small." (In fact, it is not because the pole is long, so the force is small. The comparative analysis at this age is still good. ) "

You: "Great, you found it. Why is the pole long and hard? " Child: "I don't know, why?" You: "You will know through rigorous experiments and analysis in the future, probably in junior high school. Come on! " "

In this example, parents pay attention to the guidance of the observed object. When looking for the reason, the level of analyzing the single column phenomenon is already very good. Hands-on, experience, observation, simple analysis and arousing curiosity are the key words.

If the child 12 years old or older, it is time to try more systematic experiments and analysis besides graphics, videos, models and simple operations.

Can be developed around these issues:

1. What's the name of this device? (Easy to introduce to the third party who is not present)

2. How to do/play/operate? (Different ages, different personalities and different words depend on children's reading and semantic understanding)

You have a try (the process of experiment is essential)

4. What has changed with every action you just made? What happened? (Observation ability (proper focus, attention distribution, hand-eye coordination), cooperation ability (if there are children next door or at the scene, you can exercise your partner's cooperation ability))

5. What is the difference between different operations (different initiatives)? What are the rules?

The above questions are not always asked, and the questions are increased or decreased according to the difficulty of the exhibits.

It is best for children to ask questions themselves after watching the operation.

Some changes can be made in the form, such as choosing an exhibit to report to parents and exercising children's thinking and expression skills (parents cooperate as spectators and photographers to record the moment of children's growth, which is also one of the joys of family life).

Children's report of science and technology museum: how movies are made.

You can also print a study report for your child to enrich the study form.

The study record form of "Exploration Science and Technology Museum" used by the Third Division during its study tour.

To sum up, the Science and Technology Museum is a place full of knowledge and interest, which can give children a good scientific enlightenment. Children of different ages can explore in different forms and depths. It is very important to have an atmosphere of appreciation, care, interest and speculation between parents and children!
