Second, do not seek understanding, only familiarity, only return, not coercion. Children can recite it naturally as long as they repeat it. Oppose coercion, oppose pawning the course of reading classics.
Third, we should persevere, avoid the three-minute fever and try hard.
Fourth, to teach children to recite, we must remember a principle, and don't skip the chapter. Just read all the way. Don't think that the difficulty of things is relative by adults' views on the classical difficulty. Adults find it difficult, children may not find it difficult, and vice versa. Many adults find the classics difficult to read, which is indeed the actual situation at present, because they have never read them since childhood, or read too little. The ancients were not like this. The ancients read classics from childhood, and it is not difficult to grow up.
It is actually very easy for children to read classics, both at home and abroad. Because children first develop memory and intuition, not understanding. Reciting is a child's nature, and it is very easy to read classics by memory and intuition. To measure the depth of the course, children's learning potential and absorption are unimaginable to adults. It is an indisputable fact that today's children have tight study time and great pressure. But classic reading will not add extra burden to children, on the contrary, it will improve children's learning ability.
Reading a classic is better than reading miscellaneous books. Classics are things that directly discuss the origin of human nature. Reciting classics from childhood is like standing on the shoulders of giants. Children's minds will be broader and their horizons will be more profound. This is what the ancients called knowledge, and what we now call cultural education. With this background, children will be handy when they learn relatively simple applied knowledge and culture, and many parents will get twice the result with half the effort when they ask this question. We give different suggestions for children of different ages: if the children are younger, we can start with enlightenment books such as Three Amethyst and Disciples Rules; If a child has already entered primary school, knows Pinyin and some Chinese characters, and has the basic knowledge of learning, he can start with classics such as University, Analects of Confucius or Laozi. . From the experience of all parts of the country, the general situation is that the number of words can be less and slower at the beginning. After children accept the classic reading method, younger children insist on reading about 50 words a day, while older children read about 80 words a day. Before reading classics, listening to CDs is a very important link, so that children can get used to listening to classics and blurt out some classic contents. Especially for young children, you should listen more. As for the number of times, there is no hard and fast rule, what matters is the edification of classics. Reading classics is not to let children reach the level of proficient reading as soon as they start, but to let children read classics.
Canon infiltrates children's hearts, just like spring rain, "moistening things silently." It doesn't matter even if the child is not good at talking. You can turn on the CD player when your child wakes up in the morning, plays games, eats, and goes to bed at night. Parents can read to their children sentence by sentence when they have time. Children of this age have no problem with pinyin. They know basic Chinese characters and can use some memory methods. Besides listening to CDs in scattered time every day, we should also make a reading plan and persevere. In addition to encouraging children, parents should also pay attention not to have a quick success and instant benefit mentality. Parents should first realize that children's attention time is not as long as that of adults, which is related to their brain development. In the process of children reading classics, parents can prolong their children's attention in many ways: for example, various reading methods are used alternately; Reading classics in the form of games; It is children's nature to read classics and other memories through competitions. Once children find the "feeling" of reading classics, they will soon read a classic. But we must review in time, which can be a unit for three days, a unit for one week and a unit for ten days. Under normal circumstances, reviewing six to eight times can make children forget it. Interest is the best teacher for children. For such children, it is very important for parents to find ways to stimulate their interest in reading classics. First of all, the enthusiasm of adults can arouse the interest of children; Secondly, emotion can arouse interest, and parents have strong feelings with their children on weekdays, which is easier to stimulate their interest; Thirdly, a sense of accomplishment can enhance their interest. The better they read, the more they like reading. Fourth, encouragement can consolidate their interest; Fifth, changing the pattern can arouse interest. If some children are still not interested, it doesn't matter if they let go. As long as it is before the age of 13, Professor Cai Gui still has the opportunity to read the classic "Everyone can be a teacher and teach everywhere". Parents are too busy, and children's classic education can be carried out completely. Old people or nannies can spend 15-20 minutes every day reading classics with their children without explaining them to them. You can also just play CDs for children and let them live in the classic atmosphere recited by broadcast artists. Parents only need to encourage, urge and appreciate their children. The best way is for parents to study with their children. You can make a family classic study plan, create a relaxed and happy family atmosphere, and grow up with your children. At the same time, reading classics at home is also the best parent-child activity.
1), ancient and modern Chinese and foreign classics are the crystallization of human knowledge, the source of human wisdom, and contain the treasures of human splendid civilization and wisdom for thousands of years. Children are in the golden stage of memory development. If we can seize the opportunity to recite some timeless classics, it will have a great impact on his life. Reading classics is undoubtedly the most concise and efficient educational method suitable for the development of children's intellectual structure.
2) Long-term educational practice and scientific research show that carrying out children's classic reading is an important way to stimulate children's potential, learn languages, enhance humanistic heritage and open up wisdom. At the same time, it can cultivate children's noble sentiments and humanistic care, and make them broad-minded, knowledgeable, kind, intelligent, optimistic and firm. Exhibiting children's classic reading activities can not only achieve the purpose of developing children's wisdom, stimulating children's potential, shaping children's personality and learning languages, but also have many obvious benefits.
First, reading classics can greatly improve children's memory. Long-term practice shows that reading classics can significantly improve children's memory breadth and depth. Children's memory is improved, and their imagination and creativity are bound to improve.
Second, classic reading can greatly enhance children's attention, which is one of the key factors to improve children's learning efficiency, and it is also a necessary psychological condition for acquiring knowledge, mastering skills and completing various intellectual operations. After reading aloud, the child's attention will be obviously improved.
Third, classic reading can significantly and quickly improve children's literacy. After a period of classic reading, children's reading and writing ability will be significantly improved rapidly. People have to accept all kinds of useful information in the process of growing up, and the amount of information obtained through words is the largest and most important. Therefore, it is of great significance to let children have the ability to receive written information from an early age.
Fourth, reading classics helps children's personality growth. While reading the classics, children will consciously or unconsciously use the words and deeds of saints to regulate their words and deeds. It is "reading thousands of beautiful books and being a young gentleman".
Fifth, classic reading helps to improve children's reading and writing skills. Children read a lot of classics, with thousands of books in their chests, and naturally they write wonderfully! Of course, the earlier the classic reading education, the better, but this does not mean that children aged 10 or 12 will read later. Age is relative, but the best age for reading classics is before 13.
The research law of psychology shows that there are two main learning abilities of a child: memory and understanding. The development of these two learning abilities is not synchronous. Between 0- 13 years old, memory develops very rapidly, reaching the peak of human life memory around 13 years old, and memory begins to decline after 13 years old; On the other hand, comprehension develops slowly between 0- 13 years old, and develops rapidly after 13 years old. It is precisely because of the unsynchronized development of memory and understanding that for children at this stage, memory is his nature and recitation is his specialty. One of the main ways of classic education is to let children make full use of the best memory stage in life and recite a considerable number of classics. "It will be difficult to learn after a long time."
In addition, around the age of 13, children gradually enter the second period of resistance in life, which is what we usually call adolescence. After children enter adolescence, their minds are not as pure as before 13, and the effect of memory is far worse than before 13. Moreover, 13 years old, children are basically studying in middle schools, and the schoolwork pressure in middle schools is much heavier than that in primary schools. Therefore, 0- 13 years old is the best time to learn classics and the golden age to lay the foundation for children's education.
