How can students make effective use of morning self-study?

As the saying goes: "The plan for a year begins in spring, and the plan for a day begins in the morning." Morning is the golden time for memorization. At this time, people are energetic and clear-headed, and their memory is the best in the day. Good moment. We should seize this opportunity and make full use of the golden time of early reading to get twice the result with half the effort. In order to make efficient use of morning self-study time, we must fully realize the importance of morning self-study.

1. Can efficiently accumulate knowledge. Morning is the peak time for memory. Although it does not last long, it is very helpful for accumulating knowledge. The accumulation of liberal arts knowledge such as Chinese, English, and politics is the main direction of early self-study.

2. It can effectively cultivate students’ reading ability. Both Chinese and English focus on cultivating students' "listening", "speaking", "reading" and "writing" abilities, among which "reading" is particularly important. Early self-study encourages students to read aloud in order to improve students' above-mentioned four abilities, especially the ability to "read" effectively.

3. Develop language perception skills. During early reading, the eyes, brain, mouth, and ears work together. The words seen by the eyes and the sound and meaning symbols heard by the ears are transmitted to the central nervous system at the same time, increasing the stimulation channels to the cerebral cortex, which can be engraved into the bone marrow and directly impact the brain. The effect of soul greatly strengthens students' perception of language.

4. Cultivate students’ good reading habits. Effective reading aloud during early reading can stimulate interest, ignite students' desire and enthusiasm for learning, and help students develop the habit of reading.

Although there is only one morning self-study class every day, its role is not small. Early self-study is a valuable opportunity for students to consolidate old knowledge and generate new knowledge in a timely manner. We should make full use of early self-study to preview new lessons and lay the foundation for accepting new knowledge. Morning self-study time is so important, so how should we seize these precious 40 minutes?

First, the goal should be clear and the content should be rich. Morning self-study time is short and precious. We cannot hold books and read aloud aimlessly, as this is inefficient. We should establish a goal before starting morning self-study and reasonably arrange the content that needs to be mastered throughout the morning self-study time.

If the content of reading and reciting is too simple during morning self-study, it will appear boring, the brain will be easily fatigued, and the effect will be poor. You can follow the principle of "language subjects meet every day", arrange two to three memorization contents, and roughly divide the time. Let each task that needs to be memorized have a relatively fixed time to implement and fulfill it. When reading in the morning, people will be "tight" and orderly, avoiding the blindness, randomness and sloppiness of early reading, and the effect will naturally be good.

Second, thoroughly understand the material and clarify the content structure. To recite, you must first thoroughly understand the material to be recited. Experiments have shown that when people memorize sentences, what is stored in the memory is not the form of the language, but the meaning of the language. Therefore, only by fully understanding the content you are reciting can you recite it better.

When reciting content, write an outline of the content and clarify the structure of the content to help memorize the content. Because after your own analysis, you have used your own language to outline the content, which is more conducive to memory and retention.

Third, break the whole into parts and make rational use of the overall recognition method and the partial recognition method. We should use the memorization method reasonably according to the length of the content. The overall memorization method refers to reciting the entire article over and over again until it is memorized. The partial memorization method refers to reciting sentence by sentence, paragraph by paragraph, and then reciting the whole article. The short-term memory capacity of the brain is very limited, therefore, the partial memory method is more conducive to memory. Therefore, after reading the entire material several times, you should recite it sentence by sentence, paragraph by paragraph, and finally recite the entire article.

Fourth, use competitions to encourage students to motivate each other. Competition can improve the efficiency of memory, and competition can mobilize everyone's enthusiasm. Properly guiding students to ask each other questions and check the recitation effect is often better than reciting alone.

At the end of the morning self-study, you can also arrange 3 to 5 minutes to tentatively review and recall the entire morning reading and memorization content, and further summarize, organize and consolidate the memorized content.

If you review and memorize the knowledge in early self-study in a timely manner and consolidate it regularly, you can achieve twice the result with half the effort.
