标 题: 郁闷了：孩子上公立学校的花费非常高，顺便请教一下有上学的孩子的父母
发信站: BBS 未名空间站 (Mon Apr 15 16:53:16 2013, 美东)
请帮忙转一下parenting版。谢谢。
今天去Kindergarten打听了一下。太郁闷了。
想请教一下有上学的孩子的父母。
原来以为孩子上公立的Kindergarten后，学费花费会减少。结果发现，真正免费的只有
大约三个小时的时间。其他还得花钱上before school care （7；30am-9am),
kindergarten extended day, after school care (3:30pm-6pm).总共一个学年（9个
月），得交大约9500多刀的学费。夏天，还得交summer camp的钱。
真是打击很大。原来觉得咬了牙，在好学区买了房，交了房税后，学费可以少些。
想请问一下有经验的父母，大家都是怎么办的？有什么好办法可以减轻一些这方面的花
费？
非常感谢。 |

Kids may be ready for math earlier than you think
http://www.washingtonpost.com/local/education/quick-whats-bigge
By Lyndsey Layton, Published: December 17
摘要：研究发现，3岁的幼儿就可以理解数字的含义。
这个报告发现了一个重要的情况：儿童认数字比用实物的教具更有效。
这个和我的教育理念基本一致——
人大脑本身在小数目是可以实例化的，而大的数目要用抽象的方式对待。
美国数学教育界过于强调用“实例”教育，损伤了孩子的数学抽象能力。

有一个观点就是kindergarten根本教不了多少东西，孩子也没学到什么，所以更无所谓。

发帖数: 3142 | 7 New math
是专有名词，即所谓新数学
1950s-1960s
从美国经几个法国大数学家在美国开始倡导，不仅在美国大行其道，西欧亦步亦趋。
新数学彻底改变传统数学，无论从内容，从教学法，还是考试选拔。
从 Kindergarten 开始学集合论，基本上取消传统的殴氏几何。
关键词：SMSG，后被戏称为some math,some garbage
New math是彻底失败，60年代后期被取消。
Reform math：
从1970s开始持续到现在
因为new math 彻底失败，1970年代美国开始提出back-to-basics的口号。
Reform math 又被成为 new-new math，以everyday math系列为典型。
Reform math 把大部分的集合论从小学数学当中去掉，但新数学的残余阴魂不散。所以
，理论不见了，离散数学的许多内容被强行加入到从Kindergarten自始的数学教育当中。
Reform math的特点是，强调推翻传统数学的学习方法，在kindergarten开始就开始使
用计算器，主张5＋3等于8不重要，重要的是要知道5＋3＝3＋5

发帖数: 65 | 9 你看pbs的用词：extend
你这里的“落后”二字就完全不对。
common core 从1999年开始，对kindergarten开始有要求
这个真是完全错误的。
美国真是跟中国越来越像！
我敢说russia，hungary，germany的kindergarten的数学里都会有这样的字样：no
writing. Kids' finger joints are ready yet for writing.
几年前，我就在kindergarten里volunteer过，当时看到这样的字样，还挺想吃惊的，
所以印象就特别深。从100年前开始就有无数early learning psychologists 做过大量
的研究，得出的结果是56%的5+儿童not ready for writing。所以给出的建议是在1年
级（也就是6岁前）不ready的也不可以去纠正。不能写就不写，而不是去纠正。小孩还
没ready，家长或学校强迫去要求，那是对小孩的abuse。
曾有人做过研究，就是有些东西 让小孩子5岁时候学，和跟7岁时学 相比较，
7岁时学的效果更好。（手头没reference） |

发帖数: 2888 | 10 去参观了一下一个小学，本来 打算让小女在那里 从kindergarten开始上。
但是看了一下，有两个担忧。不知该担忧否，请问各位父母高见。
一个是kindergarten的那个房间特别暗，故意的，我们进去，老师还特别提出说，这样
孩子喜欢，因为cozy，而且光线太强了对眼睛不好，晴天会比今天稍亮。这个房间一面
墙有窗，说是要用自然光（窗户还用半透明的那种百叶窗遮了一半），屋里点了几个白
色的灯笼灯。放了4-5个桌式台灯。我问老师小孩在哪里看书，老师说哪里都可以。---
-我们老两口都近视，平时在家很注意光线，不会太暗。那个房间的光线，我自己是没
法看书的。但是真的是我知识落伍了么？要暗到那种程度玩玩具或者看书 才不会近视？
第二个是 kindergarten老师 一个白女，一个亚裔女。亚裔女以英语口语判断，应该
不是第一代移民。当天只有两家（一对白人夫妻+我） 参观。亚裔女开始介绍了后，很
吝啬给我一个对视，基本都望着另外一个白女家长说的。不像白女老师基本在两家之间
轮流。也许我敏感了，但是我担心的是小孩在这个班上被故意忽略，这种感觉太差了
，如果是这样，那就是花钱买不爽了。 |

业没有做过一次。他非常的advanced， 在kindergarten第一次接触word，
kindergarten结束后阅读水平能够到三四年级。各种领悟都很快，学得也很快，也就不
一一吹了。但是我发现他所有的领悟快都是因为记忆力超强。他social 没有问题，也
不是外向小孩。小孩子现在很多学得东西靠的都是记忆力，丢开记忆力你会发现他的表
达能力，组织能力，自我控制能力，管理能力，创新能力等等方面都是平平常常；现在
，我对孩子所有的重点都在身心这一块。学习上我不闻不问，他自己领悟。我知道记忆
力强不可能出天才，他是个平常娃，上个一般的大学，身体棒棒，心理健康阳光才是最
重要。当然，如果他真是天才娃，我也会人类服务，哈哈。。观察下来不是。
从楼主的描述看，你们家小孩可能主要的强项是记忆力，很多记忆力强的小孩，逻辑推
理能力差，但是楼主的小孩没有这个短柄，这点和我家小孩很像，但是并不是靠逻辑能
力甩同辈一大截，靠的是记忆力。所以个人觉得还是把重点放在孩子的身心上为好。 |

在三岁之前，她一直都是我们自己带的。好像没有为她不听指令烦恼过，早晚洗漱她基
本都是和我一起做的，我还记得她歪着小脑袋，仔细看我是怎么刷牙漱口的，然后一板
一眼的照着做。虽然小时候她就很喜欢读书，好像没有那么着迷，那时候，我们看着她
自己坐在摇椅上，一边摇，一边念唐诗或三字经什么的，心里是开心和骄傲的。那时候
，叫她做什么事情，感觉反应都比较及时。当然，那时候也不赶时间。
3岁到5岁，上托儿所了，老师也会偶尔抱怨她不听指令，但是也没有惹大的麻烦，托儿
所的老师还是比较喜欢她的。至于早晚洗漱，磨磨蹭蹭是有的，不过因为比较小，我们
也比较包容，如果赶时间，我们就赶紧帮忙穿好衣服，随便刷刷牙。在家里，读的英文
书也是比较简单的，带图片的，没有几页纸，也不会着迷， 很少发呆或出神。我们好
像也没有为不听指令发过愁。
5岁以后，上小学。上K第一周就到校长办公室一游，因为不听指令，老师要求进行下一

Of the graduate school mountain,
But there in the sandpile at Sunday school.
These are the things I learned:
Share everything.
Play fair.
Don't hit people.
Put things back where you found them.
Clean up your own mess.
Don't take things that aren't yours.

发帖数: 12020 | 42 严格来说我指的是 preschool，不过我一直以为 pre-k 和 preschool 是混用的。
wiki 上说：
Pre-kindergarten (also called Pre-K or PK) is a classroom-based preschool
program for children below the age of five in the United States, Canada and
Turkey (when kindergarten starts).

又随便选了个校区，Palo Alto：
The Board of Education recognizes that high-quality preschool experiences
for children ages 3-5 help them develop knowledge, skills, and attributes

Kids may be ready for math earlier than you think
http://www.washingtonpost.com/local/education/quick-whats-bigge
By Lyndsey Layton, Published: December 17
摘要：研究发现，3岁的幼儿就可以理解数字的含义。
这个报告发现了一个重要的情况：儿童认数字比用实物的教具更有效。
这个和我的教育理念基本一致——
人大脑本身在小数目是可以实例化的，而大的数目要用抽象的方式对待。
美国数学教育界过于强调用“实例”教育，损伤了孩子的数学抽象能力。
Children as young as 3 can understand the meaning and value of multi-digit
numbers and might be more ready for direct math instruction when they begin
formal schooling than previously believed, ... 阅读全帖 |

发帖数: 19398 | 44 A draft of newly revised math standards to be used as the basis for
instruction in the state's kindergarten-through-12th-grade classrooms is now
available online for public scrutiny and comment.
The proposed Arkansas Mathematical Standards, the work of some 170 educators
including teachers, content specialists and higher education faculty
members, will go to the state Board of Education for approval, probably in
March. The draft math standards are a change from the Common Core State

KINDERGARTEN: HOW OLD IS OLD ENOUGH?
• Current law: Children can begin kindergarten if they turn 5 by
Dec. 2. Parents can choose to hold kids back.
• Proposed law: Children could begin kindergarten if they turn 5
by Sept. 1. The change would be phased in, starting with a new cutoff date
of Nov. 1 in 2012-13; Oct. 1 in 2013-14; and Sept. 1 in 2014-15 and
thereafter. |

My son attended a Montessori preschool for 2 weeks before we changed to
Discoveryland. He loves discoveryland, tons of toys (also computers!) and
very very nice teachers. There are two teachers for 8 students for the 2
years old class when he first there. In his first two months in school my
son has already showed great improvement - potty training done, no more

发帖数: 695 | 47 这贴早该发了，刺激大家，罪过罪过（尽管我每天都爱上这儿来受刺激：-））
首先申明，娃还小，了解得很片面，如有出入敬请指正。
6岁前的学前教育：kita和kindergarten，kita接收0-3岁的小朋友，不同kita接收不同
年龄段的小娃，分0-2和2-3
岁。3-6岁混合班，统一进kindergarten，这个混合班一直颇有争议，我觉得万事有利
有弊吧。
我家宝贝，保姆从7个月带到20个月，之后去了kita，接着上kindergarten。
小学：义务性教育，不可拒绝。在大部份的邦里，小学为四年制，只有柏林与布兰登堡
为六年。
中级教育：分职业预校Hauptschule、实科中学Realschule、文理中学初阶
Sekundarbereich I des Gymnasium，还
有综合中学Gesamtschule。其毕业学位为综合中学毕业证书Hauptschulabschluss，或
是中级文凭mittleren Reife，
而这也是文理中学进阶的必要条件之一。
1)职业预校Hauptschule
职业预校的发展是以职业教育为主，并强调实务性与方法操作。以学生人数比而 |
