Children fall in love with reading experience sharing
Readers get Chinese, and those who get Chinese get the world. The new semester has begun. Are parents ready? When it comes to the benefits of reading, parents should have learned a lot from various channels. Although the parent-child reading in our family was established earlier, at that time we didn't feel what impact it would bring to our future study and life. We simply think that it is better to play games and watch cartoons with books all day. Of course, our children also like playing games and watching cartoons. After entering primary school, the class teacher highly praised reading, which not only established a reading corner for children, but also created a very good reading atmosphere for children. I really feel lucky that children can be assigned to such a class. Because of this, I gradually understood the influence of reading on children and began to pay attention to the changes that reading brought to him.
As for the problems children encounter in reading, perhaps the biggest problem parents encounter is not knowing how to choose books for their children and how to make them fall in love with reading. I also see many parents buy many books for their children. Maybe some books are better for parents, or they know better books from other sources, but children don't necessarily like reading. All kinds of books can also be searched online. This so-called book list can be used for reference, but it may not be suitable for every child. Every child's reading taste is different, so children's demand for books is different. If you really want children to regard reading as an interest, you should choose a bibliography according to their tastes. The process of choosing books for children is also the process of understanding children. No one knows children better than parents, so no one can take the place of choosing books. As long as you put your heart into it, you will find your child's interest and choose the book that suits you best.
For a bookworm like me, reading is as interesting as playing with toys, and libraries and playgrounds are equally attractive. Reading every day is as natural as eating (it should be more important than eating in his mind). When a child really loves reading, he doesn't have to worry about not reading and choosing books. What needs to be worried is whether he has been reading for too long today. It's time for dinner. He hasn't come out of the book after screaming for a long time. The library urged me to go home several times, but I couldn't bear to leave. . . If there is a new book, I can't wait to read it at once.
How can we make children fall in love with reading?
In fact, children are curious about everything from birth and try to explore the unknown world. Children are born with super learning ability and exploration spirit. Think back, will our children ask their parents such strange questions for a long time? Many times, parents don't know what to do or even want to answer. In fact, at that time, seeking knowledge was a child's instinctive reaction. Parents who don't respond must have missed the best opportunity to guide their children to learn.
A few years ago, I heard a video lecture by an education expert who respected reading. He said this: When a child has questions to ask us, we shouldn't tell him the answer, let him find the answer by himself, and where to find the answer? You can take him to find the answer from the book. The answer you find yourself will be particularly impressive, and when his thirst for knowledge is satisfied, he will like this way, which is the best way to make children fall in love with reading. ? I deeply remember this sentence, and I did the same, so that Zhuo, who was 4-6 years old, was crazy about all kinds of popular science books, and even extended to some physical chemistry books. What impressed me most was that every time he tried to find an answer from a book, he would come and share it with me excitedly. At that time, his expression was like meeting an oasis in the desert, full of surprise and satisfaction. Will he feel very tired after reading these books? Erudite? He often gives us the limited books he sees? Science conference? ：
? Mom and Dad, do you know? Not all bacteria are harmful. There are many beneficial bacteria in our body, such as yeast and E.coli, and mushrooms are not plants, they are also bacteria. ?
? Do you know that Cordyceps sinensis is actually a fungus? It is Cordyceps sinensis, parasitic in larvae. He ate the meat from the larvae until there was only an empty shell left. In summer, fungi emerge from empty shells and become grass. When the grass dries in winter, it becomes a bug. It is also a very precious medicine. Although it tastes disgusting, it has a good effect. ?
Various topics emerge one after another, and we are often criticized by him? Speech? Shocked, although there are many times when I am eager to express myself incoherently, I still have a good grasp of some basic knowledge points. Such an unpopular topic is so magical and interesting in his mind, and all this is brought to him by books.
Speaking of choosing books, I have to mention the library, which is really a great place. I sincerely thank the government for creating such a good place and must recommend it to parents. We have been clubbing in the library since we were three years old, at least twice a month, rain or shine. I stayed in the library for five and a half hours at the longest, and 80% of the nearly 4,000 books we read were borrowed from the library. There are not only many books in the library, but also many meaningful activities for children. The important thing is that they are all free. When you really don't know how to choose books for your children, take them to the library and let them choose their own books. Even if they don't want to choose, they will be infected by the reading atmosphere there.
When Zhuo was 4-5 years old, he read most popular science comics and almost all comic books in the library. For a long time, I have always liked Korean science comics. What was my favorite at that time? The Science of Happiness, Why? The History of Happiness, Why? Learn math happily. ""Why? Look at the world carefully, "why? The cartoon encyclopedia of popular science knowledge for young people in the new era, my first treasure hunt series of popular science comics, my first popular science comics? Children's question and answer, my first science comic book? Desperate Survival Series, Science Experiment King (1- 14) My first science comic book is quite popular in the library, so I can't borrow it if I go late, so we have to get up early on Saturday. Even so, we still missed a few of 100 books.
It is mentioned in the reading manual that people who love reading comics in childhood often become readers with strong reading ability when they grow up. According to a study, more than 200,000 children from 32 countries have taken the IEA assessment exam, and Finnish children have the highest reading scores, while the most common pastime book for Finnish children is comic books. Experts suggest that if children have low reading ability, let them read comic books; If the child shows interest, let him read more comic books. Boys usually like comics better than girls, which is why they are more active in thinking.
In addition, in recent years, by observing children's reading habits, we have also found some reading rules, which are still consistent. Usually, he is interested in a certain kind of books at some time, and he is hungry for food. But it may take a long time to find such an opportunity to restore his enthusiasm after missing this time period, so it is also important to seize this reading opportunity. Can be used as a reference.
The specific method is as follows:
1, choose books through cartoons or movies that children like to watch:
After watching cartoons or movies with my children, I will discuss the plot with them. There must be something that children are very interested in, so here comes the opportunity. At this time, I will collect some books related to movies, which children will definitely love to read. I used to take Zhuo to see a movie called Insect Story. The insects in the micro-world are lifelike, and Zhuo is fascinated, as if he were in a film, so I went to the library to find him various versions of insect stories, and read twenty or thirty books in a row, and he was fascinated by each one. In addition, we will go to the mountains to look for the footprints of insects, watch ants move together, watch bees collect pollen and so on. He will also say to me:? Mom, insects and microorganisms are good friends of human beings. Without them, the human ecosystem will be destroyed and people can't survive. ? So he won't hurt any beneficial insects, even an ant.
Another time, I watched Fantastic Night at the Museum 3. I saw that President Roosevelt, who was finally resurrected, rejected Larry's proposal and decided to return to the new york Museum with all the exhibits to continue making lifeless statues. Seeing this, the child cried and said to me? Mom, this is their value? . While lamenting his profound understanding of movies, I realized that this was the best opportunity for him to get a preliminary understanding of world history. Then I began to collect books about the history of various countries that suited him. Sure enough, he slowly fell in love with history. The history of various countries is extensive and profound, and it is not easy to make it clear in just a few books. But with a good start, such books have been included in our required reading list for each issue.
The recently released "Little Door God" is a China-flavored film, which is related to the ancient legends of China and the New Year. Stories about New Year's Eve, the Classic of Mountains and Seas, and ancient China fairy tales are very suitable for children's desks.
The story behind every movie will arouse children's infinite interest, and through this point of interest, you can find relative books. I don't know if you found it.
2. Choose the right books through travel: the process of travel is also a very good opportunity. It is best to read thousands of books's trip to Wan Li Road, and inspire children through the human history, local conditions and customs, so that travel is no longer a cursory tour, but a deeper learning process. For example, when we went to Sanqingshan Mountain in Jiangxi during the summer vacation, the children were very interested in all kinds of peak forests on the mountain. When they came back, they lent him some books on geography. He was very interested in the stones on famous mountains, and my first comic book, Treasure Hunting in Greater China, Encyclopedia of Children's Interesting Geography and Running Around the Earth. After reading it, he also lamented that our world is so big and wonderful, and at the same time, he was more interested. After coming back from the Botanical Garden, I will find some books related to plants for him to read at this time, such as Journey of a Seed, Planting a Tree on the Mountain, Dancing Leaves, and Encyclopedia of Plants, which he also likes to read. After visiting the museum, he will be interested in some history books. It is also appropriate to choose Happy Historical Comics, Five Thousand Years of China and China Historical Map Picture Books. He is also very enthusiastic about history recently.
After going to the science museum, I will be interested in science books, "Wow! There are many books such as simple science, interesting science, Little Newton Science Museum, secret series, etc. You can choose according to your child's favorite topic. After coming back from Leifeng Tower, I bought a book, Folk Stories of West Lake. After reading it, I will seriously introduce the origin of a scenic spot to others. As long as we pay attention to the topics that children are interested in during their outing and give them targeted choices, we will certainly find the books they like to read. 3. Choose books according to the living environment. The knowledge in any book comes from life. For example, Zhuo was looking at the garbage classification information in the publicity column of the community and paid special attention to an environmental public service advertisement on the roadside, so we began to discuss the topic of environmental protection. Environmental books such as Superman and environmental cartoons make our topic more practical. Even when he goes to the museum, he will be interested in the environmental protection exhibition hall. Recently, he was worried that global warming would bring disaster to mankind, so he was not allowed to buy a car. After primary school, I really got in touch with mathematics and Chinese, and got a new understanding of Chinese characters. I like to read stories about Chinese characters, such as Chinese characters with stories, Chinese characters with hilarious laughter, and the wonderful kingdom of Chinese characters.
Adventures of digital kingdom, wonderful digital kingdom, etc. It's also my favorite. Among them, "Wonderful Digital Kingdom" has been watched three times in a row, and I have made up several versions of interesting stories. Once he caught a cold, but why do people catch a cold? He must want to know why, so books like The Battle of the Cold Virus, The Terrible Bacteria and The Story of Man and Bacteria should appear. Of course, it doesn't mean that he has a cold. Just throw these books at him. We should create an atmosphere, preferably one that can arouse his thirst for knowledge. For example, I said to him sympathetically: Oh, the cold is too uncomfortable. Why do you think people get sick? I heard that a group of bad guys called bacteria broke into our bodies, and then a group of knights called white blood cells bravely resisted, and finally white blood cells failed. Bacteria broke through a line of defense and finally occupied our bodies and destroyed them in our bodies. We felt very uncomfortable. ? Then he began to read the book you chose. At this time, he must be very interested.
4. Choose books through books that children like to read:
This is the simplest and most practical method. Whether parents read it or children read it themselves, they will find some books that children like better. Look for children's interests from these favorite books, and find some books with similar content, the same series or written by the same author. For example, we read Edith naisbitt's Want to Be a Good Boy. The author of this book is imaginative and humorous, combining theory with interest. Children laugh every time they watch it, and then I borrowed her children by the railway from the library, which is also very popular. What's more, as I mentioned earlier, I watched twenty or thirty different versions in a row. I loved it during that time, but I didn't watch it much later. So when you find your child's interest, you must grasp it well, and you can start from this point. Because there is a certain relationship between books, as long as you pay enough attention to your child's concerns in reading, you are not afraid to find a book he likes.
After reading a good book, children want to read more good books, just like eating delicious food. At this time, books become real spiritual food, and children will fall in love with reading as if possessed, and learn more books from one book. I read Einstein's series of picture books before, which not only made him understand Einstein, but also reminded me of words I was unfamiliar with, such as World War II, Nazi, Jew and Hitler, so that he said to me when I saw Het Achterhuis recently. Annie is a poor girl. She is as Jewish as Einstein. They live in the same era. Hitler didn't like Jews. He wanted to kill all the Jews in Germany, so Einstein went to America, and finally Anne died. This is all because of the war, so I hate it. ? It can be seen that all the keywords in that history can find his favorite book. Recently, he found another book. Hitler stole the pink rabbit, and maybe he will like it.
Sometimes I'm not sure, sometimes he doesn't necessarily like the book I choose, but as long as I read it to him, he won't reject it, and he will soon enter the state. These days, I am reading a history book "Lost Civilization" with him. He has read a lot of history books about this kind before, but most of them are comics or picture books. This is a documentary book, and its content is rather boring. It is the only one of the 20 books borrowed at the same time that he doesn't want to read. So I tried to read it to him every day, and my interest was aroused by reading it. When we read the chapter "The Legend of Alexander", there was a passage in it, and he asked me to read it three times.
If Alexander had continued eastward at that time, this seemingly spent force might have crossed the mountains and forests and entered the territory of China during the Warring States Period in a few years, then the first opponent he met in China would probably be Qin, who had just experienced Shang Yang's political reform, and his political influence and economic and military strength were booming. At that time, China was a time full of heroes and vigor: Monk and Zhuang Zhou were philosophers, King Wuling of Zhao carried out the riding and shooting reform in Khufu, Qu Yuan's words began to shine, and Zhang Yi shuttled between countries for political mediation. . . . . If Alexander's army meets the ancestors of Tian Lei, Wang Jian and Meng Tian. Will this invincible myth sweeping across Europe, Asia and Africa come to an end? History has not given these two civilizations a chance to compete. -This passage has been read three times, and the history of China and Europe has been compared in his little head. In addition to Alexander, he has begun to be interested in several historical figures in China mentioned here, and will find some books about the history of the Qin Dynasty for him to read.
For children's reading, don't be utilitarian, let them feel the pleasure of reading, let them choose their own books, talk to them in a relaxed atmosphere, and even make up some stories related to books with them according to their own preferences. After reading Sanmao's wandering story, we made up a story with him if Sanmao came to my house. After Sanmao came to our house, we went to the supermarket, school and park with Sanmao. All kinds of scenes are very interesting, and at the same time, they make him feel that he can be a writer, which makes him feel very fulfilled.
Encouraging children to make up stories can not only exercise children's imagination and writing ability, but also be a very good way to test whether children master knowledge points. Many times I doubted that the child had read so many books and read so fast. Does he really understand? In fact, we should not doubt children's acceptance. Although he can't master all the knowledge so comprehensively, he can firmly remember the main knowledge points. Don't test him in the traditional way, reading under pressure will be less fun.
Thank you very much for reading carefully and look forward to sharing it with other parents. Everyone learns from each other, and there are more good ways to learn from.
