JOOYES Jia Yi, such as the “Tool Recognition Wall”, “sawing operation Area”,
and “Fine Grinding Area”, advocating the use of modular layout to achieve
classified storage of tools, convenient access to materials, and centralized display
of works. For instance, the wall environmental creation area can stimulate
children’s interest through contents such as wood grain maps and tool usage
flowcharts. The design of the operation console should take into account both high
compatibility and anti-slip functions to ensure the safety of children’s operations.
In terms of the selection of tools and materials, the author emphasizes the
principle of “child-centeredness”, recommends the use of low-risk tools such
as round-headed hammers, plastic saw blades, and soft sandpaper, and equips
them with a variety of wooden raw materials and auxiliary materials. In addition,
for safety management issues, it is proposed to establish a “triple guarantee
mechanism” : first, formulate clear tool usage rules (such as “wear protective gear
before operation”), second, carry out specialized training for teachers, and third,
introduce parent volunteers to assist in supervision.
Chapter Four: Design of the Woodworking Little Maker Activity.
This chapter is the practical core of the entire book, systematically sorting out
the design logic and implementation strategies of the woodworking little maker
activities. The author divides the activity goals into three levels: the basic level
(mastering tool usage skills), the advanced level (completing simple woodworking
works), and the innovation level (independently designing complex projects).
For instance, children in the small class can recognize shapes and structures by
assembling building blocks, those in the middle class can try to make simple pen
holders, and those in the large class can take on the challenge of building multi-
functional toy boxes.
In terms of activity forms, the author advocates the combination of “gamified
teaching” and “cooperative learning”. For instance, children’s fear of difficulties
can be reduced through role-playing (such as “Little Carpenter”), or team spirit can
be cultivated by completing large-scale works through group collaboration. These
activities not only enhance children’s spatial perception ability, but also promote
the emergence of their environmental awareness.
In terms of the evaluation system, the author proposes to adopt a model that
attaches equal importance to “process evaluation” and “outcome evaluation”. The
