How will primary and secondary school students in Shanghai spend the winter vacation in 2023?
1. Negotiate with your children to formulate a reasonable study plan.
When winter vacation comes, it is easy for children to forget about study. Parents should help their children develop a study plan and consolidate their daily schedule regularly. For example, insisting on reading an article every day, practicing a page of calligraphy textbooks, reciting a Chinese classic, and copying a good composition? These are all beneficial to children.
Parents may wish to urge their children to implement the learning plan, and during the implementation of the plan, promptly discover their children's progress and praise them.
2. Necessary review.
After a semester, a child’s final grade can often reflect his basic level. In order to better welcome the new semester, parents should promptly help their children sort out their learning loopholes and help them lay a solid foundation for learning. You might as well take out the unfinished exercises and encourage your children to complete them. Just one hour a day is enough. After the whole winter vacation, there will definitely be progress.
3. Cultivate children’s attention.
Children’s attention span increases with age, which is why many primary school students are always half-hearted and dilly-dallying when doing homework. Therefore, during the winter vacation, parents have more time to use small techniques to cultivate their children's attention. For example, read an article in front of your children and ask them to pick out numbers and colors and write them out; for example, let your children participate in painting training classes or practice calligraphy textbooks. When your children's interest is high, they will naturally be able to improve their concentration and gradually master it. Habits are brought to school.
