日本幼小衔接的新举措

New Measures of Transition from Kindergarten to Primary School in Japan

进入21 世纪以后,日本政府通过采取一系列举措扎实推进幼小衔接工作,特别是近3年来,加快了幼小衔接的步伐,呈现出了系统性与全面性两个鲜明的特色。系统性表现为从教育目标到教育课程以及具体的教育活动保幼小(保育园、幼儿园与小学,儿童年龄跨度为0~12 岁)之间都有很好的衔接设计;全面性则体现在学前儿童与小学生之间的互动交流、保教人员与小学教师之间的合作研讨以及提高家长对学前儿童入学准备的认识等方面。

After entering into the 21st century,the Japanese government has been strongly promoting transition from kindergarten to primary school by taking a series of measures. Especially in the last three years,it has accelerated the pace of transition from kindergarten to primary school,which presents two distinct characteristics:systematicness and comprehensiveness. Systematicness is shown in educational objective,education curriculum and even in specific educational activities. There is a very good transition design to link nursery school,kindergarten and primary school (nursery school,kindergarten and primary school,children ages range from 0 to 12). Comprehensiveness is shown in the aspects of interactive communication between preschool children and pupils,cooperative discussions between nursing staffs and primary school teachers,as well as improving parents' knowledge for children's school readiness.
