For the sake of their children\’s academic progress, parents spend a lot of money, even to the point of embarrassment themselves. They are reluctant to buy beautiful clothes and jewelry, but they do not hesitate to enroll their children in cram schools. Most of our families are ordinary families, so we have to pursue the highest cost performance. My family has not participated in any cram school since the first grade. Even in the first grade English class, when the child cried and said she did not understand, my first reaction was to look for the audio and read the words and texts with her, and slowly started to catch up. As you progress through school, additional expansions can be made. At present, the scores in Chinese, Mathematics, and English are quite stable and basically remain in the first tier. Do you think the scores of children enrolled in the class can be improved? Maybe, but is it worth sending your child to tutor all day just for those few points? I don’t think it’s worth it. Wouldn’t it be nice to save that money and time to travel with your children or buy books? I think we should develop some basic abilities of our children at home first, and then consider whether to enroll in classes after they have a certain learning ability. First, memory ability. Memory is the basis of learning. Whether it is a new word text or a formula or theorem, if you are slow to memorize it, you are destined to learn poorly. So how to improve children\’s memory? Memorizing by rote will definitely not work. We can use a variety of memory methods, such as drawing mind maps to let children know the structure of the article and then recite it much easier. When memorizing words, you can remember them faster by using the phonetic spelling or homophony method. Only when you understand the meaning behind mathematical formulas can you remember them. You can also use some tips. For example, the best time for memory is before going to bed and getting up in the morning. I usually let my children listen to the audio in the evening, try reading it twice, and then read it again the next morning to memorize it through repeated repetitions. Texts, ancient poems and prose, etc. are all naturally memorized by children during their morning reading time. Second, understanding ability. Comprehension is divided into two aspects, one is Chinese and the other is mathematics. Chinese comprehension is developed by analyzing articles. Starting in middle and high grades, children should learn to analyze the structure of articles and understand the central idea that the author wants to express, etc., and then improve them with specialized reading training. My family uses 100 Chinese reading training articles for primary schools. I like its answers. It not only gives answers, but also gives test points, methods and ideas, so that children can know why the answers are written the way they are. Improvement in mathematical understanding lies in solving word problems. We can draw pictures and analyze known and unknown conditions to make children think more. If you are able, add some Mathematical Olympiad questions to improve your logical thinking ability through continuous practice. Third, comprehensive application ability. Memorizing knowledge is not yet a complete mastery. No matter how firmly you memorize the formulas, it will be useless if you cannot apply them flexibly when encountering application problems. So how to improve comprehensive application ability? This requires a question. There is no need to study a lot of questions, but basic practice is essential. By doing the questions, you can understand how the knowledge points are connected together, build it into a big network, and then discover your own shortcomings and make up for the loopholes in a targeted manner. Doing this will not simply repeat work, but will continuously consolidate and expand your knowledge network. The above three abilities are particularly critical to children\’s learning. If we pay more attention to cultivating these abilities in primary school, I believe our children will be better at learning!
