Kindergarten teachers' growth is the unity of continuity and discontinuity. "Crisis", "encounter", "awaking" and "exhortation" all can break off the continuity of professional growth of kindergarten teachers, put kindergarten teachers' growth into the stage of discontinuity, promote the kindergarten teachers to make a positive self adjustment in shocks, and open up a new stage for kindergarten teachers' growth. In order to promote kindergarten teachers' active self adjustment in shock, and impel kindergarten teachers to step out oftheir"comfort zone", preschool teachers should try their best to overcome the tendency of"comfort zone" and strengthen the spirit of reflection. The kindergarten should create a rich and colorful cultural environment, and establish a cooperative research community for kindergarten teachers.展开更多
