What changes does reading bring to children?

What changes does reading bring to children? I think parents who value reading will have their own answers. We Chinese don’t like reading, so the road to promoting reading is always difficult. Bai Yansong once said, \”How come the Chinese people are so reduced to the point where they have to promote reading?\” He mentioned one thing: \”CCTV has done a public service announcement about reading. It has been promoting reading in the past few years. I always wonder, you see Do you celebrate any day that is internationally designated as a \”eating day\”? No. Since there is no international eating day, why should there be a reading day? For people\’s bodies and bodies, they cannot live without eating, but for our From a spiritual point of view, isn\’t it as difficult to survive without reading as it is without eating? Why have we fallen to the point where we need the whole society to promote \”reading\”? This incident just confirms a certain sadness and a certain awakening in China .” But this is our reality. Fortunately, many mothers have begun to pay attention to their children\’s reading. In particular, many mothers on our platform often ask, hoping to give them some suggestions on children\’s reading and recommend books suitable for their children. Because everyone is in a different industry and circle, you are bound to see different things. Whether you are a boss or an ordinary salaryman, or even a middle school or university teacher, when it comes to children’s reading and picture books The level of understanding is definitely still insufficient. Unless you really value your child\’s reading and have been practicing it yourself, choosing books for your child, reading with your child, and explaining your children\’s doubts. Many mothers still tell me, \”My children can\’t sit still. Every time they read a circle, they start playing within a few minutes.\” \”I\’m too busy at work and have no time to cultivate children\’s reading habits.\” The mother said that she has not really paid much attention to reading, and she still feels that it is dispensable. Sometimes I even wonder, is reading useful? The kid from Lao Wang’s family next door takes the first place in the exam every year, but I don’t see him reading any extracurricular books! There are also some parents who relate their pasts and feel that they did not read when they were young, but they are still doing well now! It’s normal to think this way, but what can reading really bring to children? If you knew there were so many benefits, you wouldn’t think so, and you might even feel that it was a lifelong regret that you didn’t have books in your childhood! Professor Wen Rumin, director of the Chinese Department of Peking University, once conducted a survey among first-year undergraduate students admitted to Peking University. Two points were discovered: 1. All students who like Chinese and have developed reading habits have a large amount of extracurricular reading and a wide range of knowledge. These students have more active minds and have high overall quality; 2. They are only familiar with teaching materials and teaching aids. , there is little extracurricular reading and no reading habit. Even if the test scores are good, after entering college, they often feel that they have learning difficulties, their vision is narrow, and their ideas are not developed enough. Since exam-oriented education cannot be completely abolished, I believe that in addition to \”reading for the college entrance examination\”, some space for free reading should be appropriately reserved to allow students\’ hobbies and potential to develop in relatively loose and personalized reading. High humanistic qualities are actually conducive to achieving good results in exams. Developing reading habits lays the foundation for students’ life.A British study found that children with higher childhood reading skills will have better socioeconomic status when they grow up. For every one grade improvement in reading level at the age of 7, the annual income will increase by 5,000 pounds at the age of 42. However, there is no need to be utilitarian in reading for children, because I think the most important thing reading can bring to children is happiness and confidence. Reading brings happiness and confidence to children. Can reading bring happiness to children? Many people deny it and think that playing can bring happiness. This is a real experience of mine. Once, I met a friend whom I hadn’t seen for many years. I heard that his daughter was almost 6 months old. I started talking to him about reading while we were chatting. As soon as I opened my mouth, he waved his hand quickly. , told me: \”My daughter doesn\’t want to read any books before she is three years old. I just want her to have fun.\” People who have been exposed to parent-child reading will never think that there are really many parents in the world who think this way. Just play and don’t read any books!” I also met a mother who said, “I will not buy any extracurricular books for my son until he is 12 years old. There is no need to read. Children already read enough in school.\” Our reaction at that time was also very puzzled, Oh my God! This mother actually made her child’s reading world pale before the age of 12. She felt that textbooks were enough to support her child’s most precious childhood reading time! Of course, children have a lot of happiness. They will be happy when they receive gifts from their parents, they will be happy when they eat what they like, and they will be as happy as a puppy when they go for a walk in the park with their favorite friends. However, children can also get happiness from reading, and this happiness is long-lasting. I have almost a wall of books at home. I\’m really worried about putting pressure on my child, but he doesn\’t seem to be under any pressure at all. He can find a few books from the middle every day, lie on the bed and look through them, mumbling words, and when he encounters something he can\’t understand, He asked me to tell him. At first, his grandma thought it was inappropriate to read to her children because reading at such a young age was too tiring. Later, after she listened to the little guy telling her a few picture book stories, she felt that there were such good stories and such beautiful books in the world. She also began to think that reading was good, and she also taught reading to the parents of the children who came to my house. The benefits are there. Nao Matsui, the father of Japanese picture books, mentioned in his book \”The Seeds of Happiness\”: \”Picture books are not for learning, but for feeling happiness.\” I think as long as parents know how to do it, they should not force their children to read. Let your children start reading naturally and they will definitely feel happy. In addition, reading can make children confident. Sometimes, we will find a kind of children who are plain in appearance and even look a little indifferent, but they impress people as soon as they open their mouths, and they are very confident. Because he has a lot of money in his stomach and has his own attitude and grasp of life, he is very confident at a young age. Children who love reading will learn and write much more easily. Soviet educator Suhomlinsky once said in \”Suggestions for Teachers\”: \”Reading is an important means of intellectual education for students with \’learning difficulties\’. The better students learn, the better they learn.\” The more difficulties they feel and encounter in mental work, the more likely they are toThe more you need to read. Just as photographic films with poor sensitivity require longer exposure, the minds of students with poor academic performance also need the light of scientific knowledge to shine brighter and longer. Don’t rely on supplementary lessons, don’t rely on endless ‘tugging’, but rely on reading, reading, reading again – it is this that plays a decisive role in the mental work of students with ‘learning difficulties’. As for children\’s composition, I have some opinions of my own. First of all, we must prevent children from copying. Because I found that many children have just started to write compositions. In order to complete their homework, they take out their composition books and copy them. I once saw two children copying compositions, saying that they went to Xiufeng Park, and then saw something. In fact, they had never been to Xiufeng Park, and they just stayed at home and copied compositions. If you copy it like this, the child\’s composition will be ruined. So what should we do in the early stage of children\’s composition? I think the first one is to read more. Because one of the compositions relies on thinking, and the other relies on experience. Why some children can’t write anything? It’s because they haven’t paid attention to the world or thought about it. What’s more important is the lack of experience. Children’s lack of life experience means they don’t have it all at once. Changes, but being able to gain life experience and ideological achievements from books. With long-term reading accumulation, children\’s thoughts will become deeper. At this time, they will be able to formulate ideas, have ideas, and have things to write. The other is to write more. At the beginning, you must keep a diary, make reading notes or summaries, write out what you have absorbed, and write more. Regarding children’s writing, we will talk about it in detail next time. In addition, the benefits of reading are too numerous to list here. In addition, reading can exercise children\’s concentration. This is more useful for little ones. Some mothers say that their children cannot sit still, but they can sit still when playing with iPhone or iPad. In fact, their minds were not still at that time. Their attention was scattered and they were enjoying the excitement of the game. However, facing a quiet book without any sound effects, they would definitely not be able to meditate. If you have been addicted to the world of video games as a child and stayed away from books. The probability of falling into online games in primary school is much higher, because these children only know the joy of video games and have never heard of books. A lot of responsibility lies with the parents themselves. I really don’t want the children raised by mothers who play mahjong in those shabby shops on the corner of the street to only know mahjong. I hope that every child can read more extracurricular books during their childhood. Parents have no right to deprive their children of reading experience in childhood because of their own ignorance. You may still not know why your child is slowly falling behind. Because of your neglect, your child has really started to fall behind at the very beginning of life. Of course, you might say that there are many people who have not studied and become rich. All I can say is that you only see these lucky people who got rich suddenly, but you don’t see how many books a truly wealthy person has read from you. Children who love reading will not be fine, but children who love reading will definitely be different: there will be more sparkling things in their eyes, and there will be more things in their minds.A few question marks, there will be more smiles on their faces, more elegance in their movements, and their hearts will be full… Years later, when they recall the time when they were studying with their parents, they will feel Pleasurable, you will feel warm in your heart! When I think of the books I have read, I feel that this is the source of inner peace.
