Regarding parent-child reading, there is always a topic that continues to be concerned, that is, whether children should read intensively or extensively?
Many parents feel that there are so many books in my home, but just read them dryly once or twice, always feel that the knowledge in the picture books and the content conveyed are not well mastered, and they will also feel that it is a pity to spend so much money to buy picture books.
That's why it's up to debate whether extensive or intensive reading is needed.
Today, Xiaobian will analyze and discuss with you whether intensive reading is important or extensive reading is important in children's reading.
The relationship and timing of extensive reading and intensive reading
Intensive reading, as the name suggests, requires readers to strive for excellence, careful words and sentences, carefully comprehend the deep meaning conveyed by the article, and be meticulous to the extreme; and extensive reading is often a generation passing, point to the end.
From this interpretation, it seems that intensive reading seems to be more important, so about the relationship between intensive reading and extensive reading, Xiaobian expounds from the following two angles, hoping to give you reference.
Both extensive and intensive reading are indispensable
It is precisely in this way that the amount of reading is the basis of reading quality, on the contrary, the amount of reading will not reduce the quality of reading, and it will also promote the quality of reading.
If a child reads less, then his background knowledge accumulation is less, the knowledge structure is relatively simple, of course, it is difficult to understand complex knowledge.
Therefore, for children's reading, it will be more appropriate to expand knowledge through a large number of extensive readings, increase children's accumulation and understanding of some background knowledge, and improve children's comprehension on the basis of appropriate intensive reading.
On the basis of understanding children, we can distinguish between intensive reading and extensive reading
If you have any book in hand, you must observe, ask questions, do reading strategies and extensions, as if it may be more tiring for parents and children.
Each child's reading habits are different, some read very slowly, some read and can't remember too much information, some always read those two books repeatedly, some only like to read fresh books, can find a reading rhythm suitable for their own children, on the basis of understanding their own children, and then look at intensive reading and extensive reading, it is more reasonable.
When the child likes to read widely and experience different themes, he is provided with different themes and different types of books, on this basis, it is appropriate to explore the child's interests and hobbies, find the "treasure" picture books that you like together, explore together, and inspire children to observe and think, which is suitable for the rhythm of most people.
Of course, in the process of intensive reading, do not rush to make children remember how much content, or must understand the key ideas expressed by the author, or deeply understand the logic to what extent, and gradually guide children to think in the reading process is a better way.
Speaking of this, the relationship between intensive reading and extensive reading is actually a sentence: extensive reading ensures the reading surface, intensive reading improves the quality of reading, and appropriate intensive reading on the basis of extensive reading, both of which are essential, but the specific development time depends on the child's reading situation.
How to lead children to intensive reading in family reading
That solves the problem of whether to read intensively and extensively, the next is how to do it, extensive reading needless to say, reading, understanding the general idea, more people are confused about how to lead children to intensive reading, and then Xiaobian provides the following in-depth reading angles for everyone's reference.
Before carrying out intensive reading, Xiaobian must tell you about the premise of being able to take children to read a book intensively: that is, parents have enough patience to read the text and picture information in picture books in advance, the so-called intensive reading, all based on your understanding of the overall picture book, so that you can really guide your children.
1
Read the completeness of the picture book
The general picture book has begun to add a lot of design from the beginning of the cover, so at the beginning we have to start from the details of the cover and the details of the title page, so that the children can observe and think.
Therefore, before reading, for the cover of the book, the ring lining, and even the author, etc., to expand, many people say that the picture book starts from the text of the article, the cover, the author and the ring lining will be ignored, in fact, this is a misunderstanding, the cover design and the ring lining contain a lot of information, the picture book plays a supporting and guiding role, the use of these can also interact effectively with children.
The most typical is the front ring lining and rear ring lining of "Good Hungry Little Snake", without careful reading, you may misunderstand this story.
2
Read the picture patiently and carefully
For a picture book, it is a picture-based expression, the dual expression of pictures + words, in order to convey the information that the author wants the reader to know, just read the text without reading the picture, then such information is incomplete, and, a good picture book, the information conveyed by the picture is very rich, and even adults seem to have a lot of invisible brain holes, we must pay more attention to observation when reading.
In each book, there are actually many clues and Easter eggs hidden, guiding children not to turn a blind eye, but to pay attention to details, to use small heads to think about whether there is logic in this, whether there is anything wrong, and then think and reason.
And this is something that is easy to miss by extensive reading. For example, in addition to the main story on each page, will there always be some small animals, so the question is, will these small animals appear on other pages? Was it deliberately arranged?
Zheng Zongqiong's "Sleepwalking famous painting country" recommended to everyone before is a wordless book, how to read it, that is, reading the picture.
The clues of the little rabbit, Mrs. Rabbit, and Mrs. Pig in the book continue, it is a big drama with infinite foreshadowing, who stole the famous painting? What famous painting scenes have you experienced along the way? Clues can be found in the ring lining in front of the text.

Understand the rich language in picture books
Give them a perspective on reading other than reading words.
For example, whether there are some special vocabulary, through observing the details of the picture book, tasting the rhythm and beauty of the text, interesting images, etc., gradually added to the repeated reading, each time you read, you can find some fresh content.
In this process there will be new words to explain, such as "bright", when reading the word, the child does not understand what is bright, must seize this keyword to ask, the mother can follow the trend to explain, of course, the explanation of the word so small children must be placed in the context of the meaning, simple word explanation will be very poor, not necessarily able to understand the meaning.
And in the process of reading, like poetry, very typical such as "Important Book", each page is a beautiful little poem, enjoy reading with feelings, and experience the beauty of language and words.

Proper guidance and discussion
If the child can have a more complete dialogue with you, then the focus is on observation and thinking at this time, to experience the emotions, knowledge, storyline and so on contained in the author's paintings. It is not simply storytelling, but to guide children to discover stories and say their thoughts and ideas in reading, but asking questions requires skill and questioning time.
To guide in the way of asking questions, the difficulty must be moderate, do not embarrass the child as soon as it comes up, it will be too disgusting. This incision action must be very natural. It is recommended that at the beginning, it is mainly fun and interesting to cultivate basic reading skills.
The timing is to ask questions in a gap between the starting and closing places, and not to suddenly ask questions while the child is concentrating on listening.
Technique is the openness of the problem and the guidance of the picture book according to the sentence pattern, helping the child to pay attention to observation and develop his imagination, rather than stifling. Try to avoid asking non-open-ended questions, "Isn't it?" "Right?" Avoid asking self-reflective, utilitarian questions, "Do you understand?" "Do you remember?" "Do you have an impression of this word?" Don't use the adult's point of view to bind the child, such reading fun is nothing.
Of course, before we ask questions, we must first have sufficient understanding and preparation of the picture book, and understand the mystery of the picture text before we can ask questions.
The love of reading is the most important thing
Above, I hope that today's article can give all the parents who carry out family reading some reference, Xiaobian thinks that reading is actually no so-called paradigm or stereotype, all good reading, are based on observing children, understanding children's foundation, the form is good, the method is good, can really let the child find the love of reading, is the most important.
