During this period, I would help my neighbor’s sister’s son with his homework every night. The child always struggled with the fourth-grade elementary school classes. In the words of the neighbor\’s eldest sister, her son Hanhan \”doesn\’t get enough food and salt\”. I am not good at anything except language and math, and my grades have always been below average. Even if I use encouragement, beating and scolding, my grades will not improve. I took several cram schools, but the effect was not obvious. Since Hanhan said that she likes mathematics, and my eldest sister also felt that mathematics can produce quick results and increase Hanhan\’s confidence in learning, we decided to start with mathematics. But I soon discovered that just tutoring children in math is not enough. The problem with children is not that they can’t calculate, but that they simply can’t read the questions. Simply writing numbers and calculating vertical expressions can be done correctly as long as you are not sloppy. But for the fill-in-the-blank, judgment, and word-question parts, each sentence should be broken down and explained to the child bit by bit, and the child will be able to do it. Let the children see the problem for themselves, which is a very confusing state. This is not a mathematical problem, this is a Chinese problem. What children really lack is the ability to read and understand questions. Children\’s poor English scores are closely related to the fact that they can only understand the words, but cannot understand the whole sentence and the questions that follow. Chinese is not only related to other subjects, but also the cornerstone of a child’s life. I suggested to my neighbor’s sister that we should stop obsessing over sending our children to so many tutoring classes and let them improve their Chinese scores as soon as possible. At this stage, it is still too late to cultivate Chinese literacy. It will be too late. What is affected is not mathematics and English, but many, many subjects. In the future, when children go to junior high school, they will need to fully understand the textbooks and relatively large sections of materials when learning politics, history and geography. Physical chemistry also requires a full understanding of the conditions given in the question stem, and the experimental steps also require high language expression skills. If the child still cannot read the materials and questions as he does now, it will be very difficult for him to make up for any number of lessons. It is best to read more books to your children. In addition to the content that needs to be mastered in the textbooks, ensure a certain amount of time for extracurricular reading, and also study compositions and classical prose. Many places are similar. If you do this, your basic Chinese scores won’t be too bad. The eldest sister said that composition classes are easy to find, and classical Chinese teachers are not difficult to find. It’s just that it’s a bit difficult to read outside of class. \”Actually, I used to buy a lot of books for my children to read. Later, my children didn\’t like reading so much, so I bought fewer books. In addition, the study tasks are tight, they have to go to school and make up classes, and they have to ensure that their children sleep. Let\’s see Extracurricular books, this… what a waste of time.\” But Chinese is a \”waste of time\”. She is a subject that is difficult to achieve immediate results. The more time you \”waste\” on her, the greater the return she will give you. She not only affects children\’s understanding of other subjects, but also affects the cornerstone of children\’s lives. Professor Chen Pingyuan from the Chinese Department of Peking University wrote a special article calling on students to pay attention to Chinese. \”College students must learn to express themselves. Sometimes, the path of a lifetime is determined by these ten or twenty minutes of speech or interview. Therefore, it cannot be underestimated.\” From a utilitarian point of view, if a child is not good at Chinese, he will not be able to read. If you don\’t understand the problems in various subjects, you may not even have the chance to go to a better university. Now be stingy about setting aside time for children to read outside of class.If you don\’t cultivate your children\’s habit of reading, they will most likely have to spend time with computer games, gossipy copycat entertainment programs, and soap operas with the same routine in the future. The time \”wasted\” in Chinese, especially reading, may not necessarily make a child a top student or a person with a brilliant career, but it will definitely make a child a rich person who can think and have opinions. . Improving Chinese language performance starts with cultivating children\’s interest in reading. I don\’t know if you have discovered that reading is a bit like feeding children. If he thinks the dish is delicious when he first eats it, he will eat a few more bites. If the first bite of the dish is difficult to eat, it will be difficult to get him to try the second and third bites. Children who fall in love with reading are like people who eat delicious food. They will especially like reading and may even become \”addicted\” to it. When they see a book they like, they will be unable to put it down and read it eagerly. Children who don\’t like reading will find it a burden and find everything they read boring. Whether this dish is delicious or not depends on whether the book you choose for your child can stimulate your child\’s interest in reading. A former colleague of mine also felt that her child\’s Chinese language performance was not good and she needed to read more, so he gave her a homework to read a newspaper every day and read one page of the content to her. At first, the child could read well, then he would read a few sentences and glance at the clock on the wall, and then he would become very resistant to reading and reading newspapers. I also came into contact with the father of an 8-year-old child. He told me that there were many books at home, but his child just didn’t want to read them. What kind of books are there at home? The child\’s father replied: \”There are all kinds of books, and they are all famous works recommended on TV, such as \”War and Peace\”, \”How Steel Was Tempered\”, \”Les Miserables\”, \”The Catcher in the Rye\”…\” There is no doubt that these are They are all rare and good books. It can stand the test of time and will benefit you deeply after reading it. But the problem is, the child is only 8 years old. What he needs to read is not these books, but more interesting story books and easy-to-understand popular science books. Zhu Yongxin once said, \”Childhood is a colorful ladder from romance to precision, from pink to sky blue, and children\’s reading is also a step-by-step, gradual transition process.\” Therefore, when choosing extracurricular reading books for children, you must choose them according to your own needs. The interests and hobbies of the child and the age group of the child. You can take your children to visit bookstores more often and let them choose on their own. You can also prepare more books of different types and put them together so that your children can choose what they like to read. For younger children, parent-child reading is the main option. For older children, you can combine independent reading with parent-child reading. If you find that your child is happy and happy when reading, then you have found the child\’s interest in reading. Keep at it, and one day you will find that reading has changed from a heavy burden and pressure on your children to a beautiful and pleasant thing. Improving Chinese language performance requires cultivating children\’s reading taste. One year during the Chinese New Year, my parents and I went to my aunt\’s house to visit relatives. I found that the younger sister in my aunt\’s house who was in junior high school didn\’t talk much and was always looking at her mobile phone. After asking, I found out that she was reading a novel on her mobile phone. In addition to nagging a few words, \”Looking at the phone every day,\”Do I need my eyes anymore?\” I didn\’t say much, and I was even a little happy, \”It\’s good to read more books, novels are also books.\” I was very curious about what book my little sister was reading, and she was so fascinated, so I asked her to read the book too. Pass me a copy. As a result, she really enthusiastically passed the book to me on her mobile phone and said to me: \”Sister, this book is really good. You will definitely like it too. All the classmates in our class are here.\” Look…\”. I still remember the ridiculous title of the book \”Billionaire Wife Buy One Get One Free\”. I read half of this book patiently, and the content is just an occasional love affair between a young domineering CEO and a common girl. , and then the girl gives birth to a son abroad and meets the CEO by chance when she returns home, and the three of them battle wits and courage. Not only is the book not literary, its logic and plot are also full of loopholes. If a child is addicted to such a book, it is really better not to Look. Because even if such a book is in line with children\’s reading interests, it will also destroy the child\’s context and writing style. These books ruin the child\’s reading taste. Just like people who are used to eating junk food, When you accept healthy green foods such as fruits and cereals, you will not find them delicious. Instead, you will be more willing to consume your time, money and health in these fast food. Now is an era of diversified information. Every year There are more than ten times more books published than in the past. Some of these books are relatively high-quality, but many of them are fast food books that publishers and authors have casually processed in order to make profits. I want my children to improve their Chinese language. There is no point in reading these books to improve children\’s academic performance. If you want your children to read really good books but are not very good at selecting them, parents can consult their children\’s Chinese teachers for their opinions. This is the easiest way. Method, after all, Chinese teachers know better than others which reading materials are most suitable for children at this stage. You can also look at the publishing house of this book. Generally speaking, the reading materials published by regular large publishing houses have gone through strict Screening. There are also classic children\’s books that are read to children. After several years or even more than ten years of testing, the quality of these books is guaranteed. The award-winning status of the books can also be used as a reference, at least to indicate that the book The author put a lot of thought into it, and it has been affirmed by many parents, friends, experts and scholars. Regarding reading, I read a wonderful saying: \”If you don\’t have time to accompany your child, please let him read, and the book will accompany him. If a person knows how to read a book when he is lonely, he will not be too lonely; if you don\’t know how to teach your child, ask him to read, and the book will teach him. As long as he picks up the book, he can have an in-depth free dialogue with various masters. ; If you are afraid that one day you will leave your child and no longer be able to advise him or protect him from wind and rain, please also ask him to read. The future is unknown and parents will not always be with you, but we can still cultivate children to read so that they will always be connected with knowledge. Accompany each other. \”Parents should really stop thinking that letting their children read extracurricular books is a waste of time. Once children have the habit of reading and a certain amount of reading, their sense of language will naturally improve and their compositions will naturally become fluent. , when you translate ancient texts, they will naturally become fluent. These can be slowly understood. ReadReading is the wealth of a child\’s life. Language determines a child’s lifelong path.
