A Qualitative Study Of Junior High School Girls' Boarding Experience In Kindergarten

The boarding schools develop with the development of economy.There are two types of boarding school in our country now,rural boarding schools and private boarding schools in cities.And the current school boarding system has a trend of enrolling more and more children at low ages.Boarding emerged not only at lower grades in primary schools,but also in kindergartens.There are also disputes about boarding kindergartens.However,previous researches about boarding mainly focused on the scales of questionnaire or survey.With the quantitative research methods,the results are presented by data,with lack of in-depth,descriptive and dynamic research results.This study takes the qualitative research method.Through interviews with three respondents,Xiaowen,Xiaoqing and Xiaoyou,this study examines their family,interpersonal interaction(parent-child relationship,peer relationship,teacher-student relationship),the hardships and pleasures of boarding life,boarding students'self-development(self-awareness,emotion,personality)and the experiences and emotions derived from those aspects,as well as the influence on family,interpersonal relationships,life,self-awareness and study after boarding in kindergartens.The Connotation of boarding experience in kindergartens is as follows:The most direct impact of kindergarten boarding is parent-child relationship and boarding difficulties,which impact the teacher-student relationship,peer relationship,sibling relationship,and self-perception afterwards.If we take this series of processes as a system,family is the basis of this system and the growth of young children.The compact and reasonable family structure and harmonious family relations will weaken the impact of boarding to a certain extent.In the process of system operation,each aspect will interact with each other to produce more complex effects and will inevitably produces corresponding emotions and the emotions react the aspects reversely.The influence of emotion is diffuse.The interaction of boarding factors also enlightens us on the relationship between parents and children,the influence of boarding on girls and the essence of boarding benefits.Boarding or not is a dynamic and complex process of evolution.It is a unique choice for each individual and each famil6y.It makes this boarding experience impossible to replicate,but it has a unique reference value.
