What extracurricular books can new first-grade children read?

Not long ago, I was chatting with a teacher who has worked in a junior high school for more than ten years, and she mentioned her observation: Those top students in the class who graduate and successfully advance to key high schools are really extraordinary. It\’s not like what others always say: \”He studies well because he is smart and has a high IQ.\” Some academic top students may not necessarily have great talents, but when compared with average students who have average scores and cannot improve their grades no matter how hard they work, you will find that these four characteristics of them are particularly prominent. Learning motivation does not rely on others\’ recommendation, but \”self-sufficiency\”. I saw a mother sharing online: I hired a senior high school bridging course teacher to teach at home during the summer vacation. She has three children. One went to a first-class high school, one went to an ordinary high school, and the other fell through the cracks and ended up in a private high school. The teacher hasn\’t arrived yet, and the three children are behaving differently. Those in first-class high schools are doing their homework seriously, those in ordinary high schools are building Lego, and those in private schools are watching social animal videos. Seeing this scene, the mother sighed: No wonder the first child can become a top student in a first-class high school. Many children have the same starting point. They are playful by nature. They are inevitably afraid of learning and can be lazy when they can. But top students have strong enthusiasm and motivation for learning. Even if no one reminds or supervises them, they can still be self-disciplined and learn actively. Feng Jinze, a junior high school student who was admitted to Southwest Jiaotong University\’s junior class with a score of 33rd in the country, said that his secret to learning is: take the initiative to maintain interest in learning. Because he likes mathematics, he keeps studying it. In addition to junior high school textbooks, I also take the initiative to read some high school and university mathematics books. Driven by interest, he does not need his parents to push him. But after his parents cultivate his good study habits in advance, he can devote himself to learning and exploration according to his own ideas and ideas. This kind of self-driving force is difficult to see among middle-level students. The teacher is not present, I am bored and making jokes, I don’t know what to do, let alone where to start learning. When his parents weren\’t watching at home, he couldn\’t take out his homework for a long time, and the exercises that could be completed in one hour had to be postponed until 11 or 12 o\’clock in the evening. Asked him what he was studying for, not only did he have no idea, but he would complain and complain in all kinds of ways. No wonder some people say that the drive to learn alone is enough to defeat all poor students. Children\’s internal drive is inseparable from the early guidance and supervision of their parents. Observe your child more to see what he is interested in and has a strong desire for knowledge. Even if it is a \”useless interest\”, children must be allowed to try and develop. When he finds a way and direction to satisfy his inner drive and immerses himself in it, he will not only become self-disciplined and happy, but also have the opportunity to counterattack. No matter how noisy the environment is, you can always focus on your own things. Zhang Qingjie, a famous teacher, shared a story about two girls in the class who had been secretly competing with each other since childhood. They were classmates in elementary school and both were excellent at reading. When I entered high school, my grades in each class were about the same. But soon, the gap between the two began to become apparent. One of them has steadily improved his grades. Not only is he firmly ranked first in the class, but he has also been at the forefront of the school\’s physics subjects many times. The other one was clearly at a disadvantage. During the municipal unified examination, his total score was more than 60 points behind the former. Why did the first girl leave the second girl behind in less than 2 years? After analysis, teacher Zhang Qingjie found that the difference between the two was not in IQ, but in concentration. Whenever the first girl enters the classroom, she isSit upright, without squinting. Except for listening to lectures in class, the teacher barely made eye contact with her; except for answering questions and reading, she could not hear her voice at all. Compared with others, she always sits silently, forgetting both things and myself, reading slowly and unhurriedly, and doing calculations wholeheartedly. The second girl, on the other hand, often wanders off while studying, and her concentration is simply unmatched. High concentration of study attention is particularly common among top students. A junior high school teacher commented on the \”dark horse\” in the class and said: \”She works harder than many of her classmates. The most rare thing is that she can calm down, and even the chaos around her cannot disturb her.\” Most of the top students do not Don\’t be impatient, work quietly, and be highly focused. Unlike average students, they can focus for 5 minutes and wander for an hour. Their attention will be distracted by the slightest disturbance. It is difficult to maintain a stable learning state after their train of thought is interrupted. Because they want what they want, they will strictly require themselves to stay away from external interference and temptation, and devote themselves to learning. Even at home, without teachers and parents watching, I can sit for hours without being affected. How to cultivate children\’s strong concentration? Parents must learn to \”protect\”. When your child is playing, studying or thinking attentively, do not interrupt or influence him inappropriately. Appropriately limit the use of electronic products, assist children in formulating a study time plan, and specify a fixed time to complete a certain task. Once children have clear goals and eliminate learning distractions, they will gradually develop the good habit of focused and efficient learning. Don’t be afraid of failure and have a strong heart to withstand stress. In elementary school, there is not much difference in mentality between top students and poor students. But once they enter middle school, on the one hand they have to receive a geometrically increased amount of knowledge, and on the other hand they have to face the pressure of diversion. It is easy for middle-level students to be overwhelmed, their mentality suddenly collapses, their grades fluctuate, and their condition is in a state of decline. The ones who have the last laugh must be children who are good at resisting stress, are adaptable, are not afraid to give up when encountering difficulties, and proactively face problems and find solutions. A top student in Xi\’an once shared: In the first semester exam of the third year of junior high school, his ranking dropped from 18th in grade to dozens in grade. So I reflected carefully and determined that the main reason for my falling ranking was not paying attention in class, so I put a \”Stop it\” sign on my pencil case. Yu Miao, a top student in the Harbin High School Entrance Examination, summed up the secret of her success in one sentence: maintain a good attitude. She has always been calm and gentle, but once she failed in a mock exam, she was very scared and couldn\’t concentrate. Fortunately, her teachers and parents have been encouraging her and helping her adjust her mentality. After she regained her composure, she studied more seriously and diligently, but she also took some time every day to relax, read books, listen to music, and sometimes play games. It was in this relaxed and happy state that she finally achieved good results in the high school entrance examination. In middle school, children face more challenges than ever before. The confusion of adolescence, the high pressure of the learning period, including the confusion and distress about growing up. If you are too fragile and easily affected by various failures and difficulties, the road ahead will only become more and more difficult. As a parent, you must pay attention to your child\’s emotions, life and learning in a timely manner, and provide him with methods and support.Build his confidence. Even if the child doesn\’t say anything and keeps the problem in his heart, parents must fully understand and accept it. Take the initiative to learn and understand the psychological state of children at this stage, and use scientific and reliable methods to educate and accompany children. Many top students with good attitudes have relaxed, peaceful and tolerant parents behind them. Children who are not afraid of temporary setbacks can go further and become stronger in the future. Know how to plan your studies and spend your energy in the right places. I often hear some parents complain: My children study very seriously. They lie on the table to do questions as soon as school is over. Sometimes they forget to memorize words on the way to and from school. Even the notes taken during class are more beautiful and neat than others. But the results are always unsatisfactory. What is the problem? This is probably the child\’s \”fake effort\” and fails to grasp the key points of learning in middle school. At the primary school level, if you memorize a lot of questions and memorize them by rote, it won\’t be a big problem to get high marks in the exam. But in middle school, it is no longer the more questions, the better, and the more complete the content, the better, but to learn to summarize, think and plan. A super academic at Beijing No. 4 Middle School studied like this: out of the 1,000 days of studying in junior high school, he spent 100 days thinking about how to learn more efficiently. He used his brain like this for every chapter and subject he studied. Coupled with the usual lectures and sorting out the knowledge he has learned after class, his learning ability has improved little by little. Some people say that starting from junior high school, learning to fight is more about thinking. This is not directly proportional to the level of IQ. If a child\’s memory and understanding are superior to others, but he doesn\’t know how to learn, he will end up knowing nothing. A student who had average grades in the first grade of junior high school but made a comeback in the third grade of junior high school once shared: When I first entered middle school, I always felt that I could rely on a little cleverness to learn while playing and achieve similar grades. As a result, when I entered the third grade of junior high school, all the knowledge points became familiar and unfamiliar at the same time, and I was unable to learn no matter how hard I studied. It wasn\’t until the first monthly exam results came out that he finally realized that he needed to plan his studies carefully. Start systematically taking notes, making question papers, making monthly and weekly plans, and envisioning the goals to be achieved in advance. I set a goal plan and strictly required myself to implement it. After one semester, I finally improved the speed of completing homework. On weekends, I go to the library to study and let the quiet environment help me concentrate on studying. With these methods, he finally got into the school of his choice. For middle school students, efficiency is the most critical. Simply compressing time and extending the study time will make learning painful and hectic, and in the end your efforts may be in vain. If you want to quickly change your learning mode and improve efficiency, you must plan in advance and understand the learning points of each course. Only by making appropriate arrangements and plans based on your actual situation and making good use of your time can you continue to overcome difficulties. Today\’s children are faced with one hurdle after another. Countless parents are struggling, wanting to give their children a push to help them overcome obstacles and successfully embark on a broad road in life. But if someone succeeds, someone is destined to fail. No matter what the final outcome is, the key is the parents\’ mentality and teachings. Don\’t judge a child\’s quality based on a single standard, but look at growth and education from the perspective of challenges. Use a method suitable for children to teach them how to learn and how to have the future ability to adapt to society. Focus on developing children\’s habits, exploring interests, and cultivating learning abilities. believeNo matter how ordinary and ordinary he is now, he will have the opportunity to shine on the track he loves and live his own style in the future.
