观察是科学研究的基石,观察能力是发明创造的基础。《小学科学》强调从观察入手,到对自然事物能做出解释,得出结论,强调亲历科学探究的过程,重视探究过程中数据资料的收集与积累。由于人们在进行观察时并不费力,教师有时认为观察能力是自然而然产生的,在教学中忽视从基础上培养学生的观察能力。作为培养小学科学素养主阵地的科学课,教师必须发展这种能力,使之充分发挥其潜能,在教学活动中,扎实进行观察过程的训练,培养儿童的观察能力。 Observation is the cornerstone of scientific research, observation ability is the foundation of invention. Primary School Science emphasizes starting from observation to explaining natural things and concludes by emphasizing the process of scientific inquiry and the collection and accumulation of data in the course of inquiry. Because people do not have to go through the process of observation, teachers sometimes think that observation skills are naturally occurring. In teaching, students’ observation ability is neglected. As a science class that fosters primary scientific literacy, teachers must develop this ability so that they can give full play to their potential. In teaching activities, they should conduct solid training in the observation process and develop children’s observation skills.
