In the junior high school stage, children have to learn 8-9 subjects. Among them, mathematics and English, children must study hard and must not relax. As long as these two subjects are studied to an excellent level (the score rate is about 90%), the child is expected to be admitted to a key high school. If these two subjects are too high (the score rate is less than 60%), the child may not be admitted to high school. Why are these two courses so important? There are 5 main reasons. 1. High scores in main subjects. Mathematics and English are both 150 points, adding up to 300 points. Such a high score determines that their status in the world cannot be shaken. PS: You may want to ask: Then why not just add Chinese? Chinese is also 150 points? The reason is very simple. Although Chinese is also very important, it is absolutely impossible to rely on it. The scope of Chinese knowledge is like a vast ocean. There is no other way but to accumulate knowledge over time and continuously improve the language sense. 2. Have a chance to get full marks. Children with good Chinese scores are already very good when they get around 130. It is difficult to make breakthroughs even further. In mathematics and English, children who learn well can directly get full marks. Many children who are finally admitted to the experimental classes of key high schools have scores of over 140 or full marks in mathematics and English. 3. Able to achieve rapid score improvement. Even if a child spends a lot of time studying in Chinese, he may not be able to achieve a big score increase. Especially after 110 points, it is very difficult to increase the score by 10-20 points. Even some children who are academic masters are not easy to achieve a big score in Chinese. breakthrough. Mathematics and English are different. As long as the child is willing to spend time and use the right method, the child\’s score will rise from 50-60 to around 90 in about two months. On this basis, raising the score from 90 to 120 can only be regarded as moderate difficulty. It\’s not really difficult until you have a score of 130 or above. Because it can improve scores quickly, English and mathematics have always been the most popular subjects for junior high school tutoring. Because of this, if a child does not do well in these two subjects, the child\’s class ranking will be very poor. 4. The subject that attracts the most points. There is a huge gap in scores between students who do well in mathematics and English and those who do not. Taking mathematics as an example, a class of children who are good at mathematics can directly get about 140 points, or even get full marks in the exam. Children who are not good at mathematics may only get 60-70 points out of 150, or even lower. In a single subject, the difference can be about 70 points. This kind of score gap is difficult to see in Chinese and Primary 4 subjects. A junior high school teacher I know who has been teaching for more than 20 years found that a child\’s math and English performance in junior high school can most likely predict whether the child will be admitted to high school or a key high school. If math and English are only at a passing level, the child may not be able to attend high school. If you can get around 120 points in math and English, your child will basically be able to enter high school. If you can get around 140 points in both math and English, your child can basically get into a key high school. 5. The connection between middle school and high school is very close. Children who learn English well in junior high school will most likely be excellent in English in high school. There is not much difference in knowledge between junior high school English and high school English.There are more words, longer sentences, and more complexity. If your child\’s English level in junior high school is high and can reach around 140, when he enters high school, he only needs to follow the teacher\’s pace in learning English without spending any special time, and he can maintain a very good score. As for the subject of mathematics, although there is a very big difference in difficulty between high school mathematics and junior high school mathematics, if a child learns junior high school mathematics well and can reach about 140 points, it means that the child\’s junior high school mathematics foundation is quite solid and has been established. A certain mathematical thinking and mathematical knowledge system, both of which are very important at the high school level. Children who have mathematical thinking ability and the ability to construct a knowledge system will learn very well in high school mathematics! As long as children adjust their mentality and learning rhythm, they can maximize their advantages in mathematics. In high school, they can still challenge for high scores, or even perfect scores. Since mathematics and English in junior high school are so important, how can children learn these two subjects well? Parents only need to grasp three points. 1. We must lay a solid foundation. Basic subject knowledge must be reviewed frequently. The basic concepts of mathematics, formulas, theorems, and motifs in books must be thoroughly understood. English vocabulary and grammar must be mastered proficiently. It is best for children to start memorizing the 2,000 words for the high school entrance examination in the first year of junior high school, and systematically learn grammar knowledge to eliminate blind spots in knowledge. 2. A knowledge system must be established. Especially for highly structured subjects like mathematics, you should develop a good habit of using mind maps to summarize. Summarize while learning. While learning new knowledge, you must not only establish connections between new knowledge, but also between new knowledge and old knowledge. The more connections between knowledge points, the stronger the connection, the more firmly the children remember, and the more they can draw parallels. The ability to construct a knowledge system will benefit children throughout their lives. 3. Self-study must be the main focus. Although remedial courses in mathematics and English have obvious effects on improving scores, we still recommend that you do not rely too much on remedial courses. It is best not to take remedial courses if possible. Because making up lessons takes up a lot of time and energy, it will increase the child\’s learning burden and is far less efficient than self-study. And more importantly, after entering high school, if children want to learn knowledge well, they mainly rely on self-study. If a child relies too much on supplementary classes in junior high school, his self-study ability cannot be improved. When he enters high school, his thinking ability cannot keep up, and his grades will soon decline off a cliff. Those children who are true academic masters are, without exception, masters of independent learning. If you want your children to extend the advantages of junior high school to high school, you must consciously cultivate your children\’s self-learning ability from the first grade of junior high school. This is the core ability for children to stand out in high school!
