Abstract

The Professional Standards for Early Childhood Teachers state that teachers must master the fundamental methods of understanding children, such as observation, conversation, and record-keeping. Pay attention to children’s daily performance; discover and appreciate each child’s progress promptly; focus on motivating and protecting children’s motivation and self-confidence and effectively use various methods. This shows that early childhood teachers must be good observers. Under such standards, preschool education majors in teacher training colleges and universities should focus on developing pre-service early childhood teachers’ observation skills in training talents, timely changing their teaching and training plans, and growing associated information. We should also consider the effectiveness and needs of pre-service early childhood teachers in learning about knowledge and practice interaction, reform, and innovation in education and teaching approaches. The study indicated that pre-service instructors are “fast to learn” but “slow to adapt” to children’s observations. This study uses empirical and action research to assess pre-service teachers’ observation and support of children’s activities. Pre-service teachers can observe and encourage children’s behaviors by improving their skills in several areas. Observation and support let pre-service teachers “notice, comprehend, and support” children’s behaviors.
