Hello everyone, I'm Themi's mother~
As we all know, reading is a very important thing for children, which can make people wise, intelligent, and noble.
Therefore, many parents will now include accompanying reading in a very important parent-child growth matter.
So the question is: what books will teachers from famous schools such as Tsinghua University and Peking University read to their children?
01. The old professor of Tsinghua took his granddaughter and did not tutor the study but accompanied the reading of the Classic of Mountains and Seas
Across the door from my house lived a retired professor from Tsinghua University, Mr. Hu, whose wife left early, and his son, daughter-in-law, and granddaughter, because of the hukou problem, could only stay in the county town of their hometown.
However, the educational environment in small counties is not as good as that of large cities, so Professor Hu's son and daughter-in-law thought about it and thought of transferring their children's hukou to their grandfather's hukou, letting grandpa take care of it, and going to school in a big city.
Later, after some twists and turns, Professor Hu's granddaughter went to a primary school in a big city as she wished, but after a long time, she found the problem.
Because the pace of learning in big cities is fast, children obviously can't keep up with the trip, and after a long time, they become sullen and unhappy, and they look unconfident.
After all, Professor Hu has been teaching and educating people all his life, and when he saw the changes in his granddaughter, he was distressed while letting go of other things at hand and concentrating on preparing to take his granddaughter.
Not to mention, in less than 3 months, Professor Hu's little granddaughter has undergone earth-shaking changes, and the last time the children's parents came to visit, they were really surprised.
For example, children have always been promised when they see people before, and they have no self-confidence, but now they have become generous and generous, and they are full of aura everywhere they go.
For example, the child's previous language expression ability is very weak, so it is difficult to express his meaning clearly in professional language, but now, not only can he accurately express his own meaning, but also the child has now become a member of the school radio station through his own efforts.
For another example, children used to be like mathematics, how to learn, because they could not understand the meaning of the questions well, but now they can often do the problems correctly, and even the school's performance rankings have improved a lot.
More importantly, when he first transferred schools, the children did not have any friends, but now whether they go to school or go home, there is always a group of enthusiastic fans behind their butts, listening to Professor Hu's granddaughter tell the myths and stories in the Shanhai Classics such as Yao Shunyu and Jingwei Reclamation.
Now it can be said that Compared with the past, Professor Hu's granddaughter is like a changed person, and she has also made a complete change in temperament, and all this is only because Professor Hu takes his children to read the Classic of Mountains and Seas every day.
02. What is the charm of the Classic of Mountains and Seas? Can Professor Hu read with the baby?
In fact, as parents, we would like to know what kind of education methods teachers in famous schools are, and what books they usually read to their children.
So why did Professor Hu choose the book "The Classic of Mountains and Seas" among the many books?
In fact, Professor Hu chose this book for 3 reasons.
First, the Classic of Mountains and Seas is full of fun and opens the door for children to read.
Open the book "Classic of Mountains and Seas", we can see a variety of magical stories, open up a different world full of mysterious colors for children, strange beasts and mysterious stories, and instantly arouse children's interest in reading.
We all know that reading itself can make children more excellent, so how to open the door for children to read? In the case of the classic of mountains and seas, a colorful and interesting book, it must be possible.
Second, the Classic of Mountains and Seas is a set of encyclopedias that increase children's horizons and cognition.
The book "Classic of Mountains and Seas" is not all mysterious ancient stories, it is also an encyclopedia containing knowledge of medicine, botany, geography, history and other aspects.
Through reading this book, children can see the vastness of heaven and earth, and can also understand various knowledge such as mountains, rivers, plants, grasses and trees, laying a solid foundation for children's future learning.
As early as before the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, the "Classic of Mountains and Seas" was the emperor's collection, and the royal family at that time would let their children read this book, presumably, they also wanted to let the future successor emperors understand the vastness of heaven and earth, experience the customs and customs under their management, and better manage the world.
Third, behind the "Classic of Mountains and Seas" is the principle of doing things as a person.
As parents, we always hope to bring children a variety of life principles, and then when they encounter life problems, they can face difficulties and not be afraid of difficulties.
But in fact, we often preach that the method of preaching will cause children to rebel, and reading the "Classic of Mountains and Seas" can solve such problems.
Reading "Praise the Father Chasing the Sun", children will understand that no matter how harsh the environment is, no matter how unreachable, they must bravely chase the goal.
Reading "Jingwei Reclamation", children will understand that no matter how difficult things are, as long as they are determined and not afraid of difficulties, there will always be good results.
Reading "Da Yu Zhi Shui", children will understand a kind of national integrity and spirit of giving up the small self and making the big me, and can also know that when encountering problems, they should not be reckless, but should find a breakthrough in the problem, choose the best method, and give an efficient plan.
Therefore, when children read the "Classic of Mountains and Seas", these principles of being a person and doing things have subtly entered the child's mind, forming the child's personality, temperament, and quality of being a person, which has a decisive impact on the child's future life.
03. Old Professor Tsinghua: "The Classic of Mountains and Seas That Children Can Read and Understand" is the Classic of Mountains and Seas that is suitable for children
Children read, and adults have a lot of differences, the original work of the Shan Hai Jing, itself is a crooked tooth, the whole text is mainly based on words, so it is very jerky, if you let the child read the original, the child not only can not understand, but also boring.
Therefore, Professor Hu of Tsinghua carefully selected this set of "Classics of Mountains and Seas That Children Can Read and Understand" for his granddaughter, which has a total of 3 books, namely "Alien Country", "Myth", and "Divine Beast", with a total of 270 stories and 300 exquisite illustrations, through the way of pictures and texts, bringing children a unique mysterious world.
This set of books adopts the language method that children are interested in, the whole text is vernacular, but it is funny and wonderful, maximizing the restoration and explanation of various wonderful stories in the Classic of Mountains and Seas.
This set of books, on the basis of the vernacular text, also has a literary text, so that children can feel the literary thickness of the vernacular on the basis of reading the vernacular, so as to lay a solid literary foundation for the child.
This set of books, for children of all ages, have a strong attraction, we can use parent-child reading, primary school students independent reading and other combinations of methods, so that children immersed in a colorful, and mysterious world.
The most important thing is that this set of books can not only learn knowledge, but more importantly, children can think independently through stories, increase learning ability, and thus also bring various kinds of help to other aspects of learning.
Therefore, as a parent, how can you not prepare a set for your child?
Mother Themi's message:
We often say that "there is poetry and bookish self-glorification in the belly", in fact, the so-called "self-confidence" is a kind of self-confidence after absorbing knowledge, a kind of open-mindedness after broadening the horizon, a kind of calm after seeing the prosperity of the world, there is something in the head, and there is a kind of ability to act agilely...
And these are not difficult to do, just rely on a set of books, you can easily change.
