[摘要] 学前儿童生活的启蒙性、形象性等特征决定了适合于儿童的课程必然是贴近于儿童真实生活的内容。我国幼儿园的数学教育普遍存在学科化和小学化的倾向，注重幼儿掌握知识的能力，数学教育内容的选择也比较单一，抽象和枯燥，因此幼儿园数学教育内容的生活化成为当今幼教工作者所面临的一项重要课题。生活化教学是陶行知“生活教育”理论的核心思想，提倡将生活中的教育元素融入课堂，从生活经验中抽象出概念和结构，以获得知识。
本研究以常州市某一幼儿园的数学活动为研究对象，结合理论分析、课堂观察和案例分析的方法，对教师在数学内容上的选择进行了讨论，笔者在阐述幼儿园数学教育内容选择现状的基础上，明确提出数学教育内容生活化的意义，并分析探索了教育内容生活化的有效途径。
