Primary school is a critical stage in a child\’s growth process. Whether the foundation of primary school is solid or not directly determines the success or failure of a child\’s future learning. However, the foundation of primary school is not only reflected in academic performance. So, in the primary school years from 6 to 12 years old, in addition to learning, there are three more important things that parents should know, so as not to make them more useless the harder they try, and may even be counterproductive. 1. Ye Shengtao, a habit educator, pointed out: \”To put it simply, education is to develop habits.\” Similarly, in ancient my country, there was a saying that \”if a young man is born, habits will become natural\”. In fact, all education can be attributed to developing good habits in children. Children with good habits will not have bad grades. On the contrary, those with poor grades are children with bad habits. Therefore, in primary school, parents should not pay too much attention to their children\’s scores. The important thing is to help their children develop the habit of loving learning. Children of this age need careful company from their parents. This kind of companionship is not about watching your children do homework and forcing them to study, but about regulating your own behavior and being a good role model for your children. After get off work, instead of lying on the sofa playing with mobile phones or sitting together playing mahjong… instead, I focus on caring for my children\’s studies. For example, if a child achieves excellent results or makes slight progress, parents should immediately realize that this is the best time to cultivate their children\’s enthusiasm for learning. Perhaps a single praise can build up their children\’s confidence in learning. Special attention should be paid to study habits, such as previewing, reviewing, sorting out wrong question papers, writing, concentration, etc., and they must be carefully cultivated. The cultivation of good study habits is not achieved overnight. It requires sufficient patience and perseverance to teach repeatedly, teach repeatedly, be meticulous and persevere, and there is no room for slackness or hesitation. I believe that as long as children get used to it, their learning will not be bad. 2. Reading For children, entering elementary school means that their learning life has officially begun. However, there are ways to learn, and reading is the best way. And learning is a step-by-step process, and it is also a process of continuous accumulation. All outstanding children have one common characteristic, that is: they like to read. Most children who have outstanding memory, comprehension, logical thinking, and expressive skills in senior grades have extensive reading habits in elementary school. On the contrary, those children who only study textbooks and do not have extracurricular reading will have limited thinking, insufficient logic, and limited learning ability. The so-called \”the spirit of poetry and calligraphy comes from China\”. The books a child reads today will be hidden in his heart, reflected in his behavior, and in his future life. Therefore, children’s reading habits must be cultivated in primary school, so that children can fall in love with reading and become little book fans. 3. Interests Interests are children’s best teachers and their motivation for learning. Only when a child is interested in learning will he have stamina. If he is not interested in learning, he will be finished. Therefore, parents should cultivate their children\’s interests from an early age and not destroy their children\’s curiosity. Children’s curiosity is their thirst for knowledge. Only children with strong curiosity have strong motivation to learn. Therefore, in daily life, we should maintain children\’s curiosity about new things or events, thereby stimulating children\’s interest in learning new things. existUnder the supervision of curiosity, children will have a desire to explore, causing children to focus on learning. The time of concentration is relatively long, and the ability to accept new knowledge will also change with the strength of curiosity. The stronger the curiosity, the faster the acceptance of new knowledge will be. Therefore, protecting children\’s curiosity is to protect children\’s interests. This is a very important thing. Curiosity that has been protected and guided will become children\’s interest in learning and studying. Naturally, children will have a strong interest in learning. Curiosity.
