(Baonghean.vn) - The clips are recorded by teachers and sent to interactive groups between teachers and parents such as Zalo, Facebook... to guide children to study and play together at home.

Following the direction of the Department of Education and Training of Tuong Duong on ensuring safety and improving the quality of child care and education at home during the temporary closure to prevent and control the Covid-19 epidemic, many preschools in Tuong Duong district have practiced recording clips of teaching sessions and sending them to parents through interactive groups between teachers and parents so that parents can watch and guide their children to study and play at home. This method has initially been effective and has received very positive feedback from parents.

Tam Thai Kindergarten is one of the first schools to implement this form of teaching.

Having just finished filming a clip instructing children on how to pick water spinach to help their mothers at home, Ms. Ngan Thi Dao, a teacher at Tam Thai Kindergarten, said: "The first few days of filming the clip were a bit awkward, but after a while I got used to it and became more proficient... Honestly, I miss my children when I stay at home for a long time, so I think this policy is very reasonable in the current epidemic context."

In addition to instructing on child care and life skills, teachers also instruct on how to make fun toys using safe and readily available materials at home. Photo: Dinh Tuan
Ms. Tran Thi Thuy, Principal of Tam Thai Kindergarten, said: "The school's curriculum for teachers includes: teaching life skills, how to make simple toys with materials available at home...

When teachers finish filming, they will send it to the school's Board of Directors for strict censorship. If it meets the requirements, it will be posted on interactive groups so that parents can access the lesson and re-teach it to their children. If it does not meet the requirements, it will have to be redone.

All clips need to be short, easy to understand, suitable for each age group, and the tools and materials used must be safe and not dangerous for children. Currently, this method is receiving many positive responses from parents."

“These days, I and the villagers are practicing social isolation according to the Prime Minister's Directive to prevent and fight the Covid-19 epidemic. At home, I also want to teach my children, but I don't know where to start and how to teach appropriately, so I'm very confused. Luckily, since the teachers sent the clips, I have watched and taught my children. With this method, the children like it more and absorb the lessons faster."

Another parent, Mr. Dam Cong Phuc in Cua Rao 1 village, Xa Luong commune, also said, "For higher education levels, students who have a sense of learning can learn through online lectures. As for preschool education, applying this form is reasonable in my opinion. The clips that the teachers make are all short, easy to understand, and the rich content is very suitable for young children."

Currently, Xa Luong Kindergarten and some kindergartens in Tuong Duong district are also implementing teaching in this form.

Ms. Le Hong Quang, Vice Principal of Xa Luong Kindergarten, said: "Up to now, the school's teachers have made 3 clips. According to the plan, the teachers will strive to make about 20 clips. According to the teachers' feedback, parents are very supportive of the school's approach. Because they believe that thanks to these clips, their children can both study and play, play and study at home. This helps children reduce the time they spend with phones and TV screens."

The filming of clips to guide children to study and play at home during the Covid-19 epidemic prevention period of schools in the district is highly appreciated by the department because it is very suitable in the current real situation. The clips are made very carefully, the content is rich, so it attracts the attention and support of parents. Currently, all preschools in the area have simultaneously implemented this activity.

Filming instructional clips for preschool children by teachers in mountainous areas, along with the care and support of parents during this time, is the best way to contribute to disease prevention and control. In addition, it also creates a healthy and useful playground "learning while playing, playing while learning" for children during the temporary break to prevent and control the disease.
