? "Children who are willing to read can connect with the world around them, and at this stage, they finally have the thinking ability beyond imagination. This is the necessary foundation for children to become distinctive adults when they grow up-they can consider other people's opinions, have an open mind and have the ability to discuss great ideas with others. " Rafe said this when talking about the importance of reading to children.
? As a kindergarten teacher, I have been troubled by this phenomenon: the time to organize children to read in one day's life is over. For a child who is still immersed in his own book world, should he interrupt her to put away the book or continue to read it? In class regional activities, the reading area is often the area with the least number of people. Even children who choose the reading area are not interested in the books in the reading area. How to better guide children to read when taking them to the kindergarten library? After reading Rafe's chapter "Cultivating Children's Lifelong Reading", I think I have found some answers.
? When talking about his reading, Rafe said, "I read myself every day. I study because I like it. " Only subjective initiative can truly enjoy reading. As teachers, we should strive to create an environment that attracts children to read actively. Why are children not interested in the reading area of the class? After careful consideration, the books in the reading area have not been changed for a long time, and these books have lost their appeal to children. Is it possible to change some books that children are interested in regularly? So what kind of books are children interested in? When children are found to like a book in the organization of daily life, even when it is time to collect the book, can teachers still study why such books are so attractive to children? Find similar books and put them in the reading area?
? In order to cultivate lifelong reading children, Rafe talked about "adult guidance". Most children have the ability to learn to read. Think of the children in their own class, only 3-year-old children, they definitely need the guidance of adults to study. Take the children to the kindergarten library to read. After telling them the rules of reading in the library, let the children find their own books to read. Children are still young, and they are more keen on plush animal cushions in the library and audio books that can be listened to with headphones. Is it possible to choose a book area suitable for children's age and put their favorite plush animal cushions before children enter the library? Let children read in an environment that interests them. Listen to the audio book with your child, carefully observe the child's reaction, and press the pause button appropriately to ensure that the child can understand the content of the audio book. Instead of taking an audio book as a nanny, press the play button and rest by yourself.
? One day, waiting for the bus at the book city bus stop, a young father and a boy who looked about 5 years old caught my attention. Dad has a backpack on his generous shoulder, with the zipper open, and several newly bought books can be clearly seen in the backpack. Dad is standing reading carefully, his eyes drooping. The 5-year-old boy used his father's feet as a small bench and carefully looked through the books in his hand. The little boy's smile and attentive eyes show his love for reading. Rafe said, "Children need adults to read and discuss with them often. We must set an example and be a good example. " The father has just set an example. In today's information age, many adults have time to brush Weibo, watch TV dramas and play mobile games, but they have been worried about why their children don't have the habit of reading. If the adults around the child can be like this father, I think the child will be deeply impressed. The key to education lies in words and deeds, and it goes without saying that peaches and plums will learn from themselves.
Reading ability is measured by how much laughter a child makes and how many tears he leaves when reading from the heart. Writing here, I remembered the smile and attentive eyes of the 5-year-old boy who devoted himself to books when he was reading.
