How to teach children to learn ancient poetry

Basic principles for children to learn ancient poems;

Learning ancient poetry is not a simple "learning", but a game first. Be sure to take your child to study with the attitude of enjoyment, not with the attitude of "doing homework". Parents can point to the words in the book and read with their children, but don't deliberately, don't let the children think that you really want him to read, literacy must be a natural thing. This book is illustrated with pictures and texts. You can taste the interest of illustrations when reading poems with your children, even copy them, or illustrate poems with your children.

Children don't pay attention to understanding when learning ancient poetry, and a lot of reading and reciting are still the most classic ways to learn ancient poetry. If children really want to know what a poem is about, try telling them. If the child is not interested in the content, or the parents can't explain it, it is ok not to explain it. As a general principle, explain as much as you can, and don't over-explain, especially don't interpret it indiscriminately. Don't worry that children don't understand. Read the book a hundred times to see what it means. I don't understand now, but I'll understand after reading more.

How to make children interested in learning ancient poetry;

First, parents should read with their children as "* * * learners", not as teachers, statisticians or invigilators, and don't impose reciting ancient poems on their children as a task. Children may have better memories than their parents. Parents don't have to force themselves to recite, just recite some appropriately, and read more with their children, which is tasteful. Let the reading time become a wonderful time for parents and children to get along, without pressure or reprimand.

Second, learning motivation should be simple, just for liking, not for showing off, not for coping with exams. Recite as much as you can, don't care how much you recite, just care about the good feelings in the reading process. There is no purpose outside poetry, and there is no requirement outside enjoyment.

Third, develop the habit and hobby of learning ancient poems, and keep learning all the year round, but you don't have to insist on it every day, just like you don't have to eat your favorite food every day. All we need to guard against is exposing ten chills at a time. Reciting and reviewing time is best placed before going to bed and when you don't get up in the morning, which is the best memory time. Of course, other times can also be handled according to your own needs and actual situation.
