"Watermelon Bug" Kindergarten Middle Class Lesson Plan 1
The emergence of the theme
When organizing outdoor activities, a group of boys discovered several small black and gray bugs in the lawn. They just curled up into a ball, like a small watermelon. As a result, the children raised and raised many questions, and the "watermelon bug" became a hot topic of their daily attention. The natural curiosity and love for insects is an opportunity to provide scientific enlightenment education to young children. Activity 1: The name of a bug
(1) Activity goals
1. Observe the appearance characteristics of the bug, use your imagination, and give the bug a dangerous name.
2. Preliminarily learn to investigate and be able to describe the investigation results.
3. Stimulate interest in bugs.
(2) Activity process and records
1. Activity process:

(2) Investigation activities of scientific names and common names.
(3) Oral report on the name of the bug.
2. Activity record:
(1) The teacher provides a magnifying glass in a timely manner to guide the children to observe and tell. The children held the bugs in their hands and used magnifying glasses to observe and tease them. Fiercely arguing about its name:
“When it moves, it turns into a small ball, like the earth, let’s call it an earthworm”;
“No, it looks like a ball, call it a coccidia. ";
"There are seven patterns on the body, so it is called a seven-striped insect";
"It has fourteen legs, it should be called a multi-legged insect";
"It looks like a little watermelon, let's call it a watermelon worm"...
After discussion, the children reached a consensus and tentatively called it a "watermelon worm".
(2) The teacher guides the children to investigate the scientific and common names of "watermelon bug". When entering and leaving the kindergarten, the children invited their parents into the kindergarten one after another to observe the watermelon worm together, and asked their grandparents, father, and mother about the scientific and common names of the watermelon worm.
On Sunday, ask parents to accompany them to Xinhua Bookstore, library, and search the Internet for information about watermelon worms.
(3) Teachers encourage children to actively express the investigation situation orally.
Yuan Jinhao said: "Grandma doesn't call it the watermelon bug, but calls it the 'clothing caterpillar,' because it grows in rotten grass and hairy places." Liu Weiquan, whose hometown is in the Northeast, said: "It It’s called a ‘woodlouse’, and my mother calls it a ‘moist bug’.”
I have looked up a lot of information about the scientific name of the watermelon bug, but I can’t find it.
3. Extended content:
(1) Check out why the watermelon worm turns into a watermelon, and let the children discuss the characteristics of the watermelon worm - suspended animation.
(2) Interview why watermelon worms are called moisture worms, and let children explore the living habits and living environment of watermelon worms.
(3) Reflection on the activity
In the activity of naming the watermelon bug, the teacher should give the children sufficient opportunities to observe and express. The children have already had a preliminary understanding of the appearance of the watermelon bug, and at the same time they have a new question - why the watermelon bug turns into a watermelon and why it is also called a moisture bug. Teachers should list the questions in a timely manner to stimulate children's interest in inquiry and enrich and diversify the activities.

Design Intention:
Our kindergarten has a large lawn, many paths, woods, and hillsides. In spring, the grass turns green, the peach blossoms bloom, and some small bugs come out. Children love playing house on the lawn, digging in the dirt, and playing in the sand. Sometimes the teacher will hear several boys say: "Teacher, I caught a watermelon worm." This attracts other children to watch and come looking for the watermelon worm. The watermelon bug is a common bug in children's lives. It has a friendly name and can transform into a watermelon like magic, so it has always attracted children's attention.
Why do watermelon bugs turn into watermelons? Where are watermelon bugs easily found? What do watermelon bugs eat? …and other questions that children love to ask.

The children came here to play today and brought a small child with them. Where's the partner? Who can tell me the name of your little friend? Why is it called this name? (Then I’ll call it the watermelon worm.)

3) This is a long process. Children should be patient and observe to see who discovers the secret of the watermelon bug first.
Reflection on activities:
First, let’s look at content selection and material preparation. Children like small animals very much. The watermelon bug is very interesting because it can curl up and does not bite. Boys and girls will not be too scared. Watermelon worms are easy to find. In terms of material preparation, each person has one worm and an observation box, which is convenient for children to observe carefully and operate by themselves.
In the process of exploring why the watermelon worm curls up, let each child take care of his or her own little friend and introduce the name of the friend, which not only brings the relationship between the child and the watermelon worm closer, but also reflects the Children’s existing experience and understanding of watermelon bugs. To understand the watermelon bug, first start by observing the body structure. Observe the actual watermelon bug. You can see it more clearly with a magnifying glass. Looking at the picture, you can accurately identify the head, antennae, pairs of legs, and how it turns into a ball. The children were surprised to find the lines on the watermelon worm. Understanding watermelon worms is also a preparation for exploring why watermelon worms curl up. Because of the watermelon bug's physical characteristics, it can curl up.
In the discussion of "suspended death", the children did not discuss "danger-self-protection" enough, so the teacher guided, observed, and discussed during the operation activities. The children had fun playing games with watermelon bugs. Using building blocks, paper and pens, the watermelon bugs were allowed to crawl, roll and compete to make the watermelon bugs more interesting. Several children also spontaneously drew pictures of the watermelon bugs to show their understanding.
Generally speaking, in this activity, the children improved their experience based on their original understanding. They knew the name "woodlouse" and were familiar with the living environment and body of watermelon worms. and "suspended death" etc. have a better understanding. This activity stimulated children's strong curiosity for knowledge. During the activity, children and teachers, children and insects, and children were close, happy, and willing to explore, and the three goals were achieved well. After class, the children became more interested and asked to take them home to feed them. Extended activities were natural.
