Recently adopted by the Federal State Educational Standard, among the documents important for covering the work of specialists of the preschool educational institution are the annual analytical report on the work of the educator. Drafting it cannot be considered an empty formality. This document has considerable practical value. The teacher’s report on the work done for the year can be considered a form of creative presentation of their own successes achieved in the field of education. The requirements for it are readability and interesting content. A document should be drawn up using pedagogical vocabulary and terminology.
How to make a report?
How to form such an important document? Let's look at the structure of the above teacher’s report on the work done. To issue it, like any similar document, it should begin with a title page indicating the name of the preschool institution, the name of the teacher and the name itself. In addition, an indication of the time period during which the work was carried out must certainly be present on the title page. Most often, a document is compiled using certain template hints containing a listing of the main sections of the report. Which ones?
The informational and statistical section describes the actual pedagogical activity and lists the achievements of participants in the educational process. It also explains what kind of work was carried out with parents, and provides plans for the next school year. The volume of the annual report on the work done by the educator in the senior in the group may be different. The amount and degree of detail of the information provided is usually dependent on management requirements. Getting acquainted with specific examples of such documents, you can find both detailed descriptions of what was done during the year, and a standard set of brief information.
It should be remembered that the teacher’s report on the work done for the year is an excellent opportunity to successfully pass certification. That is why one should not skimp on the details when compiling it.
Where to start?
At the beginning of the information and statistics section, information is given on the number of children who visited this group during the year, with a reference to the average age, the number of girls and boys. When it comes to the report of the educator of the second younger group on the work done, indicators of the adaptation of the kids to the conditions of the preschool education are determined, which are determined according to special tests. For older children, this indicator is not relevant.
The first section of the annual report, as a rule, characterizes the team as a whole. If problem children are present, the educator usually indicates the possible reasons for their low adaptation to kindergarten conditions. The paper gives an explanation of what measures were taken during the year to solve this problem and how successfully the issue was resolved.
A mandatory element of the first section is a mention of the timely development of children who visited the group and the positive dynamics of children's success. The report on the work done by the educator in the eldest in the group (as well as in the preparatory one) necessarily includes the mention of information about the visit by pupils to various circles and sections as evidence of comprehensive education. It is absolutely not necessary to describe the identity of each specific child in the report, although sometimes such requirements are met by management.
About the teacher’s work program
The next section is pedagogical activity. What does the teacher report on the work done for the year in this chapter? At the beginning of the section, it should be indicated that work with the group was carried out in accordance with the plans available for the reporting period. As the goal of the teacher’s work program, the full and continuous development of the age of each of the children visiting the group according to the requirements of GEF is indicated. Then the tasks set for the group are listed. Traditionally, we are talking about creating favorable conditions for the development of all children, the use of progressive teaching methods and methods, and measures to maintain health.
Also mentioned is the creation of a favorable emotional atmosphere for students and the use of all sorts of useful pedagogical techniques designed to increase the effectiveness of the processes of education and upbringing. It should not be forgotten to mention that the work used the experience of modern educators and methodologists with authority in their field. And also - that the emphasis in the work was on the development of creative thinking in children and the strengthening of friendly relations between them, that the activity was based on principles that affirm respect for the child and do not allow the slightest pressure on him.
About the physical development of children
A good example of a report on the teacher’s work in the senior group includes the most complete description of the areas in which the educational process was conducted. One of them is physical development, which is among the most important priorities. Conditions for it must be created. The goal of this area is to form a need and maintain motivation for maintaining a healthy and proper lifestyle. Here it is explained that for the physical development of the kids, a variety of (including copyright) techniques were used.
As such, one can list morning exercises, physical education exercises using special breathing techniques, elements of relaxation exercises, etc. Children learn spatial orientation skills and joint play actions. Particular attention is paid to such necessary types of movement as running, jumping, vigorous walking, various types of climbing and balance training. The teacher’s progress report for the year should show a transition from simple movements to more complex ones. For example, exercises with the ball gradually become more complicated according to the age of the children, new elements are introduced: throwing at the target, tasks on the throwing range. It should be noted the importance of the selection of such tasks and elements by the educator, in the fulfillment of which the children learn new skills of movements and improve their physical fitness. In addition, this section describes those outdoor games that were organized by the teacher and were held with his direct participation. Their names are listed with a brief description.
What else should be mentioned?
The report should include a description of what basic skills children learned through outdoor games. The inventory involved in the process is mentioned (hoops, jump ropes, arcs and various attributes in the form of ribbons, elements of carnival costumes, etc.). Unlike his colleagues involved with children of primary preschool age, a teacher who prepares children for school is obliged to include a description of those activities that were carried out with the aim of instilling in children a conscious attitude to physical movement.
In the case of the organization of a sports room or special events of a physical culture direction held in a group, this should be mentioned. We can talk about thematic conversations with parents, a sports olympiad, the organization of clubs, or sports events.
Do not forget about aesthetics
The next important area is artistic and aesthetic development. The text of the document should contain instructions on the use by the teacher in the work of the maximum number of various technologies aimed at developing the creative abilities of students. A description of new non-traditional visual techniques is welcome (we can talk about drawing with a sponge, candles, finger technique or the use of natural materials: cereals, twigs, leaflets).
Be sure to make explanations about the integration of the artistic direction with other areas of education: speech, physical, cognitive. Mention is made of creating a creative and welcoming atmosphere during classes, the use of playing techniques and the promotion of children's initiative. The section usually contains information on exhibitions of children's crafts, activities to familiarize kids with their native culture, etc.
Cognitive activity
Another important area is the development of cognitive nature. The older the age of the children, the more important it is. When children are preparing for school, the tasks of sensory development, the formation of the simplest representations in the field of arithmetic and writing, and the skills of productive cognitive research come first. This section lists all activities aimed at expanding children's horizons and introducing children to the world around them.
No less important is the section (especially in the report on the work done in the middle group) devoted to speech development. It describes the results of the educator's work aimed at improving the level of development and formation of children's speech, which occurs simultaneously with the formulation of communication skills. For this purpose, for example, a thematic corner with colorful illustrations on various topics (seasons, nature), as well as collections of short stories and poems, didactic games and subject pictures can be designed (within the study area of ​​the group’s premises).
Networking
We should not forget about social and communicative development. This direction is no less important than all of the above. Each group has children with problematic behavior and a lack of sense of collectivism. Such pupils especially need to study the missing skills. Most often, success in this direction is ensured by correctly organized work by the educator, leading to the socialization of the child's personality. The organization of building and construction games, especially among older children, also contributes to success.
In the section on achievements, it is imperative to indicate children's compliance with hygiene requirements, describe the ongoing medical and psychological routine examinations indicating positive dynamics.
To summarize
Thus, the result of the report should be a brief listing of the list of achievements in the field of physical development, cognitive and speech activity, successes in the social and personal plan, achievements in the artistic and aesthetic field, and also contain references to work with the parent composition of the group and success in engaging Moms and dads in the life of the children's team. It also mentions the work carried out by the educator on conducting individual consultations, meetings, conversations, decorating stands, memos for mothers and fathers, involving parents in the preparation of children's activities.
The final section of the report is devoted to plans for the next academic year with a description of the areas of pedagogical activity and the formulation of new educational and educational tasks.
