During my pregnancy, I read many books on family education, and the series "Let Reading Light up Wisdom" of Feng Dequan's "Zero Year Plan" had the greatest influence on me. The important point in the book is that every child has the ability to "eat language", and every parent should be the first teacher of the child to cultivate his reading ability.
I couldn't agree more. Combined with my own growth experience, I confidently began to prepare a parent-child reading plan.
The child can sit around half a year old, so I began to hold him in my arms and read. I still remember my child's first cloth book: the big picture book. Children are curious to watch me turn pages and listen to me read slowly. By eight or nine months, cloth books had become his favorite toy. As long as there is a book in front of him, he will climb it happily.
When my child was about one and a half years old, I found Sina Early Education Forum, Reading Forum and Cradle Network. Teacher Xiaowu, now a parenting expert, was the moderator of several forums at that time. She read the sharing of many teachers and mothers on the forum, bought exquisite picture books introduced from abroad recommended by them, and began to formally adhere to daily parent-child reading.
When my child was about three years old, the picture book museum in Hongniba Village, Guangzhou opened. I took my children to several offline activities. Now, Detective Radish, a well-known children's book publisher in China, an expert in parent-child reading promotion, and Teacher Jia lead the activity to talk about how to do parent-child reading well. During this period, I bought a lot of picture books, reading manuals and 10 1 methods, which made children love reading. This activity made me more clear and determined the direction of parent-child reading, and I also met a group of mothers who practiced parent-child reading. We shared and encouraged each other, and posted reading notes of parents and children in the forum for a period of time.
During the children's kindergarten, parent-child reading is basically formed half an hour before going to bed every night. My heart is my mother's emotional stability and peace is the foundation. Mothers enjoy the intimacy and pleasure of reading with their children, which can nourish both children and mothers. Excellent picture books abroad are exquisite in pictures, rich in content and full of philosophy, which are no less than or even beyond adult books. I really like picture books. In the years of reading aloud with my children, I found that my sensitivity to words has improved and my reading ability has improved.
I didn't deliberately teach my children to read. Children especially like several books, such as Crocodiles Afraid of Dentists, Ants and Watermelons, Flower Popo, The Magical Mr. Fox and so on. He listened to me repeatedly and read it nearly a hundred times. Before going to primary school, he was able to "read" them by himself. I think we should memorize it.
Children can read books by themselves soon after the first grade begins, but I really like the feeling of reading with him. In the third and fourth grades, he will read two books, Education of Love and Journey to the Center of the Earth. I don't know why he doesn't like reading, so I continue to read to him every night after he goes to bed.
During my children's primary school, I especially thanked the three Chinese teachers I met: Tan in Grade One and Grade Two, Tan in Grade Three and Grade Four, and Yin Jiehua in Grade Five and Grade Six. All three teachers especially admire reading, and set up a book corner and book drifting activities in their classes. There is also a reading manual for parents to record their children's reading every week, and for children to extract and write reading notes. I like to finish this homework with my children very much. I have read almost all the books he wants to read with his children.
After the fifth grade, children have developed very good reading habits. I will borrow books from the library every week and start buying books online by myself. I was addicted to martial arts novels and online novels for a while. Under the temptation of my "mom found a good book, I'll read it to you", I usually read a few, so he grabbed it and read it himself.
It is the third grade now, and reading has become a must-read for children every day. There are often conversations at home: "Dad, I recommend a book to you" and "Mom, you can read this book". The biggest advantage of reading is that children have always been very relaxed in their studies, and compositions are often used as model essays. More importantly, books open a window for children to see the world. Children are sunny, full of curiosity and creativity. Some time ago, the child quoted such a famous saying: "You may have unlimited wealth, boxes of jewelry and gold. But you will never be richer than me, because I have a mother who reads to me. " I saw it, and I was very moved and pleased.
The above is my reading experience with my children. The method I use is summarized as follows:
1, use all festivals to send books to children, and write your words on the title page of each book. World Reading Day, Children's Day, Christmas Day, Children's Birthday. Not only in his own name, but also people that children respect and like, such as Santa Claus. , send him books and write letters in different ways. Reading is a good habit, and you are a child who loves reading.
2. Read with your children. No matter how old he is, read a book with him from time to time and communicate with him. When you meet a book that he can't read or doesn't like for a while, no matter how old he is, try to read it to him and guide him to read it.
3. When I am sick or on a business trip, I will also listen to audio for my children. But I always feel that my mother's arms, breath, voice and emotion have a temperature that is incomparable to any famous book. (When I was a child, I also heard Dan Tianfang's storytelling, trumpet radio series, and grandpa Sun Jingxiu's The Journey to the West and other classic works, but I also loved my mother to read them to him. )
4. Do theme reading. Before each trip, we try to find as many books as possible about geographical atlas, cultural environment, works of famous writers or poets, etc. Read them with questions and explorations, and then witness them one by one on the journey.
5. Encourage children to cultivate their reading preferences. At one time, my child almost broke Lin Handa's China Historical Tales, so I found him many history books. I like Keigo Higashino for a long time, so I found many mystery novels. In short, we should always pay attention to children's movements and give them support and guidance.
Reading seems to be an endless topic. Suhomlinski, a famous educator in the former Soviet Union, said: "All those educated, well-behaved and trustworthy young people mostly come from families with a passion for books." Daniel defoe, a British writer, said: "Parents are definitely not an ineffective labor for children's early education. Although in some years, the educated seem to be asleep and have not seen the effect, one day, they will see great benefits. " I deeply agree with you and would like to encourage you.
My conclusion is:
1. For children, books are an important channel to learn about the outside world. Both parents and children like reading, which is an extremely important seed to trigger children to "love reading".
Children are sensitive to language when they are four or five years old, so we must seize the opportunity to give them a lot of reading. From six to twelve, I read a lot. Children are like sponges, they suck when they meet water. Parents need to pay more attention to their children's reading. Keep pace with the times and keep learning. It is best to enter a benign reading circle to guide and influence children's reading preferences.
3. If you miss the early parent-child reading, as long as parents insist on having a book in their spare time and have a reading environment at home, children will imitate and get close to books sooner or later.
Conditions today are much better than fifteen years ago. Dongguan is a scholarly city. Every town, district and community is creating a reading culture, and there are countless picture books and libraries. Parents can cultivate their children's reading habits as long as they really have confidence and persistence.
May every child bathe in books and enjoy reading.
