Start reading a lot with your children

How to enable children to complete such a large amount of reading? This requires us parents to adopt certain strategies. 1. Reading should start from an early age and provide sufficient picture books. The traditional concept of many parents is that if their children don’t know the words, how can they read? Reading must first be literacy. The main task of first and second graders is literacy. If children in kindergarten are not literate, they will not be able to read. It is this misconception that causes children to have less exposure to reading at the age of 3-6, when they are full of curiosity about the world. In fact, children at the lower end of preschool and primary school can read a lot of picture books to gain a preliminary understanding of the many operating logics of the world. Of course, some parents also read picture books to their children, but they often do not fully understand the important role of picture books. Therefore, the number of children exposed to picture books is far from meeting the requirements. Picture books themselves are designed for children with limited literacy. With the help of pictures, children can understand the story and enter the story. Therefore, a sufficient number of picture books should be provided for preschoolers and lower elementary school students, at least 2 books a week, so that kindergarteners can read about 200 picture books in three years. In this way, when children enter elementary school, they already have a certain foundation in reading, and school learning will be relatively easy because they have a certain knowledge background. 2. There are various ways to start reading and a multi-pronged approach. Reading is not necessarily just about children reading books by themselves. Listening to stories is also a good way to read. Think about it before the popularity of movies and television. At that time, many children were deeply attracted by the stories on the radio. Before children can fully read on their own, parents reading bedtime stories is also the favorite thing for countless children, and it is also the best guide for children to start self-reading in the future. Everyone can consciously pay attention to the scenes of children sleeping in foreign movies. Bedtime stories are almost a must. In today\’s information age, we guide children to read in various ways. For children in lower primary schools, they can use the Internet to find some classic picture book stories, or they can also be traditional audio stories. Of course, the final method must be stories told by their parents themselves. When children don\’t want to read, you can also use some movies to stimulate their interest and get them into reading. The best example: There are seven books in the \”Harry Potter\” series. If you read them in the middle of primary school with the help of seven movies, your children\’s reading ability will definitely be greatly improved. 3. Reading should be based on children’s interests, and the books provided should be in line with children’s age characteristics. Children of different ages have different psychological characteristics, and their understanding of the world is also a gradual development process. Therefore, when providing books to children, they must be in line with the children\’s psychological development. There are many recommended book lists for children of different ages on the Internet. You can search online by yourself. Of course, you don’t have to buy it exactly as you found it, you also need to check with multiple parties. Nowadays, many good books are in series. It is generally good to choose some that have accumulated over time and are widely recognized, such as some international award-winning novel series. Of course, different children have different life temperaments and growing environments, so their choice of books is also different. For a series of books, you canYou can buy a few books first, let your children read them to see if they like them, and then decide whether to buy them. 4. Reading should always be presented in the form of works to constantly encourage children to read. To achieve a large amount of reading, children need to develop the habit of reading. It is best to be able to read for more than 30 minutes every day. In order for children to develop such a reading habit, some methods must be adopted to continuously encourage children to read. At the lower end of primary school, children may not be able to read quickly. At this time, you can ask your children to read their favorite picture books aloud or tell them in a story-telling way, record them as videos, and post them to Moments or video accounts. I record one video for my children every week, and often show my children my works. At the same time, it is best to establish a reading log for the child from an early age, record the children\’s reading list every day, and when the child reaches a certain number, hold a reading celebration for the child (it can also be combined with important events such as birthdays, Spring Festival, New Year\’s Day, and the end of term). You can also use the winter and summer vacations to make a reading sprint plan with your children and read a lot of good books in a concentrated manner. What do you think of these strategies? Or is it too strenuous? Let’s simplify it again. There is only one trick – as a parent, you read for 1 hour every day.
