Self-education plan: the first step towards professional growth as a teacher

General picture of the work of a self-education teacher

I have already touched on the topic of self-education several times on the pages of the blog, but I haven’t talked about the plan yet. Whatever one may say, at the beginning of each school year all educators must choose and approve this very plan. We choose the topic in accordance with the work plan of the preschool educational institution, as well as with the individual work plan for the year.

That is, if your theme is the development of fine motor skills through finger theater, then throughout the year, as planned, you must definitely implement your theme with the children. For the entire academic period, we record the stages of self-education in a special notebook, where we note everything that has been done specifically on the topic.

What does self-education work include:

Studying thematic literature (we carefully record all authors and the titles of their works);
Attending seminars, participating in webinars, courses, lectures, etc.;
Conducting open classes for colleagues, giving reports, abstracts, consulting on the topic of self-education for parents and colleagues;
Practical activities with children: classes, clubs, diagnostics, holidays, matinees, etc.

By the end of the school year, we will definitely write a report on self-education and present it to the pedagogical council. Certification will also not go smoothly without high-quality materials on the work done. If you approach the question not as an obligation, but as an opportunity to deepen your knowledge and acquire new skills, then the process of self-training will captivate you. Look, there’s enough material for the author’s manual!

Indeed, for a modern teacher, the desire for self-improvement should be natural. We have no right to be ossified, old testament or something. Our children constantly baffle us, so finding new forms of education and development for modern preschoolers is our first task. And for this you need to study, study...

Moreover, in the modern world, information loses its relevance after 5 years. This is what the statistics say. In total, the knowledge that was put into our heads at school or institute is outdated...

So that you don’t have to search for topical materials for a long time, I took on this work.

Self-education plan for preschool teacher

Teacher self-education plan
Topic: “Development of children's creativity through folk arts and crafts” Compiled by teacher: Evdokimenko Svetlana Nikolaevna Dmitrov Purpose. To develop a child’s creative abilities through introducing him to Russian folk applied art. Tasks. — Study scientific, educational and methodological literature on the issue of Russian folk crafts. - Study the experience of other teachers - specialists in this field. — Use the experience gained in working with children. Relevance. Decorative and applied arts open up to the child a colorful world of folk imagination and a variety of folk crafts.
Folk art cultivates an aesthetic sense in children and evokes a desire not only to admire the works of folk artists, but also to try to make something similar with their own hands, and forms a creative approach to arts and crafts. The child’s brain activity is figurative, colorful, rich in sensations, sounds and shapes, as K.D. said. Ushinsky, that’s why folk art makes such a vivid impression on a child. Familiarization with works of folk art evokes in children the first ideas about their Motherland, its culture, contributes to the education of patriotic feelings, and introduces them to the world of beauty. Arts and crafts classes for children in a preschool also help the child develop technical skills in painting various objects, which directly develops fine motor skills of the fingers, color perception, and improves the child’s oculomotor function. Through arts and crafts classes, children develop a variety of abilities - both artistic and intellectual. 2015-2016 academic year Topic: “Clay folk toy”

Kindergarten is a platform for preparing children for a difficult life during the school period, when the life position and personality of a citizen is formed. I would like to note that, despite my sometimes humorous and not entirely scientific language of presentation in articles, I, as a teacher, am fully aware of the responsibility that lies with me. What I will give to each pupil today is what he will go to first grade with.

Whether elementary school teachers thank me or scold me depends on my competence and interest in the effectiveness of my efforts. Therefore, I ask young colleagues not to consider work planning, including self-education, as an unnecessary waste of time for anyone, and unsubscribes for superiors. We do not work on our own, not as a private shop, but as representatives of the state education system.

It may not be perfect, but there is no other. In connection with the above, I propose that we take seriously the development of an individual work plan and try to ensure that it reflects our desire to give children solid luggage for the difficult journey from childhood to adolescence. Eh, how did I screw it up?

So, I won’t be an unfounded moralist, but I will help my young colleagues with practical advice: buy the manual “Teacher’s Work Program: Daily planning according to the program “From birth to school” (edited by Veraksa N.E. and others) from UchMag. It comes with daily planning. There is a separate work program for the middle group (4-5 years), senior group (5-6 years) and preparatory group (6-7 years).

The Federal State Educational Standard is very strict in matters of planning activities, but this particular program is fully approved and recommended by everyone in our education system. By the way, there is also a ready-made approximate plan for self-education.

I also recommend that you take part in the offline webinar “Planning methodological work according to the Rainbow program,” which will also have a very favorable effect on your horizons as a teacher.

Making a plan for self-education: step-by-step instructions

How to properly draw up a work plan for self-improvement:

We design the title page according to well-known canons; you can simply download it on the Internet. But be sure to indicate the name of the preschool institution, write that this is a plan for self-education of such and such a teacher (full name, experience, category), write down the topic, period of work (from September 2022 to May 2017) and the age group of children;
Next pages: topic, goal, tasks. We know the topic, the goal comes directly from the topic. The tasks are as follows: to increase the level of knowledge on the issue by studying relevant literature, attending training seminars, and independent research work.

The tasks also include developing a long-term work plan in accordance with the topic of self-education, preparing diagnostics at the beginning and end of the year, creating a curriculum, organizing a circle for children and other practical activities that you plan to carry out. This could also be the design of a corner, holding consultations, a seminar, a lecture.

Expected results for self-education. We write them based on the tasks. We just put it in other words and add about the children’s achievements.
Specific stages of self-education work. A table is appropriate here: we break it down by month of the school year, distribute work with children, parents, colleagues, and independent work. We include everything that we will conduct and do on the topic: literature studies, classes, seminars, consultations, stand design, exhibitions, moving folders, etc.
Output topic: final results. Here you can indicate an open lesson, a master class for colleagues, a consultation for parents, the design of an exhibition or moving folder, a report at a teachers' meeting.

As you can see, nothing complicated. It’s even easier to download a special plan form and draw up your plan based on the sample.

Before I tire you, I'll finish. In parting, I’ll ask you to do me a favor: share the link with your friends and if you haven’t subscribed yet, you’re welcome to join our company!

Sincerely, Tatyana Sukhikh! Till tomorrow!

How to choose a topic for self-education?

There are only two main criteria:

requirement to study the topic from the outside (formulated in regulatory documents, in particular, in the Federal State Educational Standard for Preschool Education);
the work of the teacher himself (lack of experience and knowledge to resolve a particular pedagogical situation).

Thus, before choosing a topic, you need to familiarize yourself with the regulatory framework for preschool education and analyze your own experience.

According to the Federal State Educational Standard, a preschool child develops in the following areas:
