Before the child is 6 years old, there are more than 40 sensitive periods, large and small, and the language sensitive period spans a long time. Ms. Montessori believes that the peak of children's language sensitivity period is 1~3 years old, while 0~6 years old is the language sensitivity period, and children have a strong ability to absorb language.
The first is the pre-language period (0~ 1 year). The baby's babbling opened the door to his language sensitive period. Generally, children will carefully observe the mouth shape of adults when they speak in about 4 months and imitate it. In about 10 months, he will begin to realize the meaning of language. About one year old, he will consciously express words.
Followed by the expression stage (12~24 months). At this stage, the baby will experience the transformation from the word stage to the phrase stage, and the child will gradually express what he wants to say. From simple words to four-word short sentences. Children's language ability has entered a stage of rapid development, and you may be delighted to find that children will talk more and more and even chat with you.
Finally, master sentences and complete grammar (2~6 years old). At this stage, children's language development ability is rapid, they can make their own mistakes, speak like adults and understand the abstract relationship of words. After children reach the age of 5, they can master complete grammar as adults and gradually enter the stage of "growing up".
Some experts believe that 5 years old is a watershed in children's language development. From 5 years old to 12 years old, children's language development will undergo fundamental changes, which is due to children's reading habits and learning ability. Therefore, our parents should pay attention to the language sensitive period in order to better develop their children's language system.
Seize the sensitive period and let the children speak early.
The sensitive period of children's language is short. If you miss it, there will be no stage suitable for children to develop their language ability in the future. Therefore, if you want your child to have a "golden mouth" as soon as possible, please grasp the language sensitive period.
First of all, build interest and entertain and educate. If you want a child to talk, it must be based on his interest. You don't have to force your child to communicate with you, so he will have resistance. You can tell your baby what you see, food, words, etc. When taking him to the supermarket or shopping, let the children read and get familiar with the surrounding environment.
Secondly, don't let TV become a "nanny" for children. Some parents like to throw their children to electronic products such as televisions and mobile phones, thinking that they are more professional than what they teach. But in fact, this is not right. No matter how rich the programs on TV are, there is no interaction and communication. This passive language mode is not conducive to children's language development.
Finally, reading training is very important. If there is any "best companion" in children's language sensitive period, it is reading. My second treasure likes listening to stories very much, especially the stories told by my sister. My sister showed him the pictures in the picture book and then explained them in children's language. It's humorous and interesting, and children naturally like it.
Every night is the reading time of our picture book, and it has become a habit for the boss to tell stories to the second child. Reading picture books can not only stimulate children's language development, but also increase their understanding ability and help them acquire more knowledge. This is also a way to train children's thinking and imagination.
In addition to picture books, there are building blocks, audio wall charts, literacy cards and so on. These are all good early education props for children. Of course, the most important thing is that parents or family members are involved, rather than buying it and leaving it alone.
Teaching children to speak, the important thing is the language environment.
The speed of children's language development is closely related to the family environment (language environment). If all family members like talking very much and can respond to their children's language in time, especially when children express their bad emotions, it will play a positive role in promoting their language development.
Parents must not "work too hard". You can understand children at a glance. Doing something for him seems to be helping him, but in fact, it is not a good thing for children. We should guide children and express their needs in words.
Most importantly, it is best to use a unified language at home. When children learn English, if there are many kinds of languages, it may cause trouble, especially the expression of dialects. If possible, it is suggested to use Mandarin as much as possible and pay attention to the standardization of language, which is helpful for children's language development. The sensitive period of children's language development is not as long as expected. Our parents should seize the golden period of language development, speak more, listen more and practice more through high-quality companionship, accompany their children through this period, and lay a foundation for future language learning.
In the early morning, my mother came to talk: a second-born mother who started writing in the early morning, I wrote my heart by hand, and everything was my parenting experience with my children. I hope my parenting experience can bring you some help.
