Abstract

Early childhood stage is an important stage of children's language development, language teaching is also an important part of kindergarten teaching, games are the basic form of kindergarten activities, language teaching in the form of games is in line with the characteristics of children's physical and mental development, and teachers' scientific guidance in children's language play activities is conducive to the development of children's social, emotional, cognitive, and linguistic abilities. This study took Kindergarten A in Chengdu City as the research object, and aimed to understand the current situation and existing problems of teachers' guidance behavior in language play in kindergarten class by observing and recording teachers' guidance behavior and interviewing teachers' knowledge of language play. The results showed that: in the language games of kindergarten children, the stimulation of teachers' language guidance is mostly for young children; teachers participate in the games mostly as educators and less as players; teachers pay more attention to the rules of the games in their guidance and lack attention to the plot and roles; and they mostly use commands and actions to give guidance. In this regard, the following educational suggestions were made: to increase teachers' awareness of the initiative of guidance, to enhance teachers' participation in the game as players; to strengthen teachers' focus on guidance; and to utilize scientific guidance methods.
