How teachers guide children to read

At school, I witnessed the growth of children one after another, just like the flower of life blooming layer after layer, Each layer of bloom brings us surprises. Children in this age group undergo tremendous changes every year they grow older, and their development needs are different from those in the past. Deeply aware of the differences between urban and rural children, more and more parents pay more attention to their children's education and hope to know what they can do to help their children. The following is my opinion on "how to guide young children to read":

Every parent hopes that his or her child will be excellent and love reading and learning. For this desire to become excellent, parents will buy many excellent books for their children. For example, the set of classic children's books you see now are placed on the bookshelves of many children. Experts believe that reading is crucial to a person's lifelong growth and development. A large amount of reading will give children obvious advantages in thinking, expression, and problem-solving. So how do you get your child to love reading? I think the first thing is to get children interested in books. Maybe your child already likes reading, and that's really good. Maybe your child isn't interested in books, and that's okay. We can cultivate their interest. How to cultivate it? Every child likes to listen to stories. This is a child's nature, such as fairy tales, detective stories, character stories, etc. Therefore, parents can choose to tell their children what they like and deliberately tell half of them. When the children are eager to know the ending of the story, they can take this opportunity. Show her the book. Children will naturally become very interested in reading!

A childhood with books is always enviable, but there is a problem. Although these books are in this home and on the children's bookshelf, they have really become children's books and become children's books. Have you got the book at home? Our parents’ own hobbies affect their children. For example, if you particularly like books about various scholars, you can also choose some for your children, such as the illustrated books "Laozi and Zhuangzi", "The Analects of Confucius", or some Books with ancient teachings, such as "Disciple Rules", "Three Character Classic", etc. This problem is also a headache for many parents. In fact, for a family, the best way to make children fall in love with reading is to read together with their children. The following suggestions about parent-child reading may be of some help to you.

One: Cultivate children’s interest in reading.

Nowadays, parents attach great importance to their children’s extracurricular reading. However, in the process of children's reading, this situation often occurs: the children do not want to read the books that parents buy for their children. Parents are dissatisfied with the books their children love to read. What's going on? First, let’s talk about the books that parents buy for their children. Why do children not want to read them? There are various situations here, some are disharmony in the parent-child relationship - the children obviously like to read but just don't; some are parents who keep asking their children to read this and that, which arouses the child's resentment; some are children who don't like it yet, but Too much coercion by parents makes the children disgusted, and they really don't like watching it; there are also cases where the children are really not interested, the parents do not respect the children's interests, etc. Besides, why are parents dissatisfied with the books their children love to read? There are various situations for this too. For example, some parents are too concerned about their children's reading content and are too strict. In fact, as long as their children do not read some harmful books, parents do not need to care too much. For another example, some parents do not allow their children to read novels and leisure magazines, believing that reading these books cannot improve their grades, but only allow their children to read some composition books and study guide books - this is of course contrary to the concept of quality education and is Wrong. Some parents do not allow boys to read martial arts books and magic books, and do not allow girls to read romance novels, etc. These are some improper practices. Therefore, if parents are dissatisfied with the books their children read, it actually reflects the problem of the parents, not the problem of the parents. child problems. Of course, there are also children's problems. For example, some children are too obsessed with martial arts cartoons, martial arts, romance books, etc. However, behind these problems of children is the insufficient guidance of parents to their children. In the final analysis, it is still the problem of parents.

The children are interested in reading and have chosen good books that they like. Our ultimate goal is to let children gain something from reading. How can we gain something from reading? Parents can read a book with their children and use communication methods to guide their children to think actively during the reading process. For example: You might as well ask your child this before reading? What interested you about this book? Or ask: Why should you read this book? As you read, you ask again: "What is happening now?".

After reading, you can ask: "Is the ending as you expected?" Or ask: "Are you satisfied with the ending?" Then communicate with your children about your feelings or a certain issue, and each talk about your own thoughts. In this process, parents listen carefully to their children, fully affirm their children's ideas, and show their appreciation for his discoveries. This not only allows children to feel respect and equality, but also stimulates children's imagination and promotes their emotional development, so that children voluntarily want to read. Regarding this point, the famous American educator Jim believes that the role of reading with children is "second only to hugging". Under such "hugging", children's enthusiasm increases, their thinking becomes active, and their expression becomes fluent. Slowly, they become You will gain something from reading! In this way, choosing, reading, progressing and being happy. With your ardent expectations and hard work, the children have grown strong wings and can fly independently.

Two: Make this important thing wonderful first. Parent-child reading is of course important, but it should first be a wonderful thing. Because for children, the process of reading is first of all a process of playing games and enjoying family affection with their parents. It is a way to get love and happiness, and secondly it is a means of acquiring knowledge. When a child sits on the lap of his parents, or cuddles up next to his parents and listens to stories, the first thing he enjoys is the love of his parents. His parents’ voices make him feel happy and the fun of each story. This kind of family atmosphere not only helps shorten the distance between parents and children and harmonizes the parent-child relationship, but also makes children feel the joy of reading, and the relationship between children and books becomes intimate and warm. To facilitate the development of habits, the time for parent-child reading can be relatively fixed, such as getting up in the morning, after meals, before going to bed, etc. Each family can determine a time period based on its own family situation. Spend about fifteen minutes reading with your children every day. The purpose is to help your children develop good reading habits. But this does not mean that this time period remains unchanged. Sometimes we can make appropriate adjustments. For example, if the whole family has an outing plan on this day, we might as well move the reading location to the countryside. A piece of grass or a stone chair can become a parent-child* The best place for reading, in the embrace of nature, parent-child reading will become more poetic.

The forms of parent-child reading are mainly reading aloud and silent reading. Reading aloud means reading aloud. For all children (especially young children and children in middle and lower grades), parents reading aloud to their children is the best parent-child reading method. Reading starts with listening, and children’s initial interest in reading and good reading habits come from listening. A child who has listened to his parents reading since childhood will be very attentive when he walks into school and classroom. At the same time, because he is good at listening, his information reserve, language accumulation, and thinking quality will be much better than those children who are unwilling or unable to listen at all (some Children often lose the ability to listen quietly because they do not have the habit of listening). More importantly, this child will fall in love with reading and books because of his childhood listening. Because listening to wonderful stories with ears gives children the most enjoyable reading experience, without the fetters of new words or the pain of being ordered to read. It is a shortcut to deepen children's memory of language and accumulate written language.

Three: Respect children’s interests and pay attention to nutrition: Respecting children’s interests is very important. If the children have no interest in reading the books chosen by the parents, it will be meaningless no matter how good the books chosen by the parents are. But it is not enough to simply respect children's interests and hobbies. We must also match children with spiritual nutrition in reading just like dietary nutrition: for example, natural sciences ("One Hundred Thousand Whys"), humanities ("Up and Down Five Thousand Years") ) must be balanced; for example, some famous books should be guided to children's reading, and some leisure books should be appropriately matched, etc. Of course, this kind of matching is only a general idea and a material preparation. In other words: I will prepare all these different types of books, and I can also give the children certain requirements, but in the end, I still have to respect the children's wishes as to what books they read. For example, my daughter has loved reading Grimm's fairy tales since she was a child, and she always buys them every time she goes to a bookstore. But I know that reading too much Grimm’s Fairy Tales is not good either. This is just like meat is very nutritious, but if you eat too much meat, the nutrition will be imbalanced and not good for the body. In this case, I consciously bought some more realistic books for her to read. She was a little repelled at first, but I ignored her. The book is placed on her desk. She can read it if she likes it, but not if she doesn't like it.

As a result, she finally read it. After reading it, she said that the book was really good and she wanted to buy it for her again. A special reminder here is: Boys generally prefer some natural science books, so parents of boys should usually guide them to read literary and artistic works; girls generally like some literary works, so parents of girls usually It is necessary to guide her to read scientific books.

I believe that effective parent-child reading will bring huge gains to children. As long as we persist, I believe that children will develop good reading habits subconsciously. Comply with the child's psychological characteristics and select the first batch of books that the child "loves to read" so that the child will have a good impression of the book. It is not advisable to control your child's reading process too tightly. Curiosity, restlessness, lack of patience and persistence are common psychological characteristics of children. Give children the right to choose reading and provide them with a relaxing and free reading environment as much as possible. Reading is an act of seeking knowledge and a kind of enjoyment. Generally speaking, starting from elementary school, most children have gradually formed their own hobbies and interests in the choice of reading content. In this regard, parents should pay attention to observation, understanding and guidance, and should not interfere too much. Finally, I would like to share with you a sentence that impressed me deeply: "If you want your child to read exactly according to your plan, it is destined to not last long."
