Dr. Wu Jun, who graduated from Tsinghua University and the top universities in the United States and has trained two outstanding daughters in succession, was asked in an interview with the educational media: After being "double subtracted", non-disciplinary education such as science, art, and physical education has been mentioned as a prominent position.
On the one hand, many parents dare not relax in subject education, on the other hand, they continue to pay for the cultivation of their children's non-disciplinary abilities, and dare not relax, always worried that learning less will delay their children's future.
How can parents alleviate anxiety and make appropriate trade-offs across many disciplines? Dr. Wu Jun combined his parenting experience to mention 3 basic abilities, hoping to give parents some inspiration:
[High-five] 1, sports
Sports is the most important, spend more time on physical exercise, so that children have a good physique, a lifetime of benefits.
Moreover, when a person is energetic, the learning efficiency will also increase.
Dr. Wu Jun said that when they studied at Tsinghua, they always emphasized a slogan called 8-1>8, that is, instead of spending all 8 hours on learning, it is better to take 1 hour of exercise, and the remaining 7 hours of work are actually more than 8 hours.
In addition, it is best to help children find a sports interest.
[High fives] 2, English learning
If you have the desire to study abroad and pursue academic pursuits, it is very necessary to learn a foreign language well.
Because the most important part of academic materials is often a slight difference in description, translation software cannot get it done. And more importantly, for academic exchanges with foreign scholars, it is necessary to speak well.
[High-five] 3, science
"Science literacy" is the underlying thinking of children. "Scientific literacy" is not scientific knowledge or skill, but a rational methodology for discovering new knowledge.
The basic abilities of scientific literacy are mainly: logical thinking ability, and experimental thinking ability.
These two abilities are difficult to cultivate well, mainly because the child's abstract thinking ability is not strong enough, and parents themselves often can't do it.
But these two abilities are really important and determine the future height of a child's life. How to cultivate it? On the one hand, parents themselves should strengthen their learning, guide them well, and subtly affect their children.
For example: watch science books and science documentaries with your children. Find out who took a few steps, how they walked, and who solved the problem in the end.
🎁 Book recommendation Award-winning well-known popular science writer Li Jianrong (Lao Duo) wrote to science books, such as: "Science Castle", which can help children establish scientific thinking:
The book tells young readers in interesting and vivid language about the major scientific discoveries that have changed the world, from the heliocentric to the big bang, from the steam engine to the computer, from evolution to genetics, detailing the history of human civilization;
The content of [China Praise] takes the characters as the foothold, showing children how those who were originally ordinary and ordinary people rely on curiosity to "play" great scientific achievements, become scientific giants that affect the world, and turn their scientific thinking and scientific spirit into simple truths that children can read.
A pea experiment was done for 8 years when Mendel proposed the law of inheritance, Darwin, who had done more than 30 years of research, published the far-reaching "Origin of Species" on the world, and Wegener continued to insist on 20 years of research in his favorite address field, and finally proved the continental drift hypothesis... Use the power of example to encourage children to explore the world, find points of interest, and make dazzling achievements in their favorite fields.
