The head teacher reminded: Why do we say that the first and second grade of primary school should be paid close attention to? Catch what? You’ll know after reading it!

There is a popular saying in the education circle: \”Keeping a close eye on\” a child for a month in first grade is more effective than keeping an eye on a child for a whole year in sixth grade. Everything is difficult at the beginning, especially children\’s education. Today we are going to talk about a topic that gives many parents a headache but is of vital importance—education in the first and second grades of primary school. I remember when my little baby first stepped into the elementary school, I was full of anxiety and expectation. Watching him skipping to school with his little schoolbag on his back every day, I felt both relieved and worried. What is gratifying is that the child has finally taken an important step in his growth; what is worrying is how to accompany him every step of the way during these six years, especially the first and second grades where the foundation is laid, when the child is extremely dependent on his parents. . I remember when my little baby first entered primary school, I was still immersed in the fantasy that \”the child has finally gone to school and I can relax.\” But soon, reality taught me a lesson. At the first parent-teacher meeting, the words of the head teacher still echo in my ears: \”The first and second grades of elementary school are the critical period for children to develop their study habits and behavioral habits. If you miss it, it will be difficult to make up for it later.\” Once, Xiaobao told me excitedly after school: \”Mom, I learned Pinyin today and read the text by myself!\” At that moment, I saw the light in his eyes and felt his joy at his progress. At that moment, I strengthened my belief: in the first and second grades of elementary school, we must pay close attention, and we must pay attention in the right direction! 011. Why pay close attention to the first and second grades of primary school? One time, I accidentally saw Xiaobao\’s homework book. It was full of traces of alterations, the handwriting was crooked, and the math questions were full of errors and omissions. I asked him: \”Xiaobao, why are you so careless?\” He said aggrievedly: \”Mom, I don\’t know how. The teacher spoke too fast and I didn\’t understand.\” At that moment, my heart tightened and my consciousness to the seriousness of the problem. The first and second grades of primary school are an important transition period for children from kindergarten to primary school. They are also a golden period for the formation of their study habits, time management skills, social skills and other comprehensive qualities. At this stage, if parents can give enough attention and guidance to help their children lay a solid foundation, their future learning path will be smoother. On the contrary, if the cultivation of these aspects is ignored, children may encounter more and more difficulties in learning, and even become tired of learning. 02. Pay close attention to habits and lay a solid foundation. I remember one time I was a guest at a friend\’s house. Her child was in the second grade of elementary school. He was lying on the table doing homework, with his head almost buried in his notebook. I reminded him a few words softly, but my friend shook his head helplessly: \”Having a bad habit will not change no matter how many times I tell you.\” At that moment, I knew that the formation of good habits does not happen overnight, but once I miss it, I will never change it in the future. It is difficult to change. 1. Study habits: In the first and second grades of elementary school, we must pay close attention to children\’s study habits. For example, regular and quantitative homework habits, attentive listening habits, and the ability to think independently and solve problems. These habits are like a child\’s \”learning engine\”. Once started, they will continuously provide him with motivation to move forward. 2. Living habits: Good living habits are equally important. For example, regular work and rest time, tidy personalhygiene, and simple housework. These seemingly insignificant habits can actually cultivate children\’s self-discipline and sense of responsibility and lay a solid foundation for independent life in the future. 033. Pay close attention to the basics: The basics are fundamental. Xiao Ming, who lives next door, never learned Pinyin well in the first grade and stumbled every time he read the text. The parents didn\’t take it seriously, thinking that it would be fine if they grew up. As a result, in the third grade, Xiao Ming began to write essays. Xiao Ming\’s self-confidence was greatly affected because of his weak pinyin foundation and frequent typos. The first and second grades of primary school are the starting point for knowledge learning and the foundation of the foundation. Pinyin, literacy, and simple mathematical operations are all indispensable cornerstones for subsequent learning. At this stage, what we have to do is to ensure that the children have a solid grasp of these basic knowledge. Don\’t underestimate these simple contents. They are like the foundation of a house. If they are not stable, no matter how tall the building is, it will collapse. Let’s talk about literacy! If literacy and reading are not enough, the child cannot understand the questions in each subject, and the homework will be greatly hindered. You need to read the questions. By the second semester of the first grade, the teacher has stopped reading the questions. My son has a test paper. If you don’t know half of the questions, leave them blank, and the teacher will just write a big “fail” mark. It\’s very damaging to children\’s self-confidence. So, what do we do? Parents can help their children master this knowledge in a relaxed and pleasant atmosphere by accompanying them in reading, telling stories, playing games, etc. 04 4. Pay close attention to interest and stimulate inner motivation. Xiaobao has had a strong interest in science since he was a child. He has to do scientific experiments every time he sees it when he goes out. So, I enrolled him in a science experiment class. Unexpectedly, he not only learned quickly, but also loved it more and more. This made me realize deeply that interest is the best teacher. 1. Discover interests: As parents, we should be our children’s “bo le” and discover their interests and hobbies attentively. Whether it is painting, dancing, or scientific experiments, as long as children are interested, it is worth trying and encouraging us. 2. Cultivate interest: After discovering the child\’s interest, we also need to know how to cultivate and maintain this interest. You can let your children feel fun and a sense of accomplishment while exploring by participating in interest classes, reading relevant books, watching documentaries, etc. 055. Pay close attention to social interaction and cultivate interpersonal relationships. On campus, a group of children gathered together, talking and laughing. Xiaobao stood aside shyly at first, but not long after, he was pulled into the circle by an enthusiastic child. They played games, shared snacks and looked very happy. At that moment, I realized that good social skills are equally important for children. 1. Learn to share: In the world of children, sharing is a virtue and an ability. We need to teach children how to share their toys, food and happiness so that they can integrate into the group more easily and gain friendship. 2. Respect differences: Every child is unique, with different personalities, hobbies and specialties. We need to guide children to learn to respect the differences of others, understand and accept different viewpoints and ideas, so that they can operate with ease in a diverse social environment. 06 6. Pay close attention to mentality and create a healthy psychology. “Attitude determines destiny.” This sentence is also applicable to children. oneA child with a positive attitude can remain optimistic and confident and move forward courageously no matter what difficulties and challenges he encounters. 1. Positive encouragement: We need to give more positive encouragement and support to children so that they can feel their own value and abilities. When children make progress, they should be given timely recognition and praise; when children encounter setbacks, they should be guided to face them positively and find solutions to problems. 2. Emotional management: Emotional management is an indispensable lesson in children’s growth. We need to teach children how to identify and manage their emotions so that they can stay calm and rational when facing stress and negative emotions. Dear parents, the first and second grades of elementary school are important stages in a child\’s growth. At this stage, we must pay close attention to the five aspects of habits, foundation, interest, social interaction and mentality to lay a solid foundation for the child\’s future. Of course, this does not mean that we should become \”tiger mothers\” or \”wolf fathers\”, but that we should use scientific methods to guide and accompany our children\’s growth based on care and understanding. Finally, I would like to end today\’s sharing with one sentence: \”There is an old saying that a good start is half the battle, so when children are in first or second grade, we should pay close attention to these habits and develop a good student from now on.\”
