Tong Tong is 6 and a half years old this year. He had just started elementary school. In Chinese, for example, he could speak new words at the time. However, when he came back a few days later to review, he found that he could only remember about 30 words of about 15 words, and his mother was a little anxious, going to the Tang family every day after school to guide, but the effect was not ideal, was it a little silly? Many parents complain that their child may not perform well in school or have a bad memory.
Memory is not only an important part of intelligence, but also an important part of your baby's future learning ability. The following is a child's memory self-test. You can start by looking at your own children.
1) When people talk fast, they don't know what others are saying;
2) Can't remember long sentences, can't repeat them immediately after listening;
3) Delayed oral expression;
4) What was learned was what was remembered at the time, but in fact it was not remembered;
5) Can't read texts fluently, can't read complete sentences;
6) I just learned new words and can't remember them for a while;
7) You can't remember what your parents or teachers told you when you come back;
8) Reading text and numbers is slow;
Why do babies have different memories? Babies are born small in the beginning, except for some particularly gifted children, but why does the difference increase? The key is still the parents.
01 Parents prematurely expose their children to televisions, tablets and mobile phones
Some parents are rude to their children, giving them a tablet to watch cartoons and play games while they cry, and thankful that their children operate electronic devices faster than adults. But we don't know that video games are hurting the baby's attention, and videos are usually a lot of short clips, fast movements, camera switching, fading in and out to show information. This "fast succession" and speed weakens the child's attention, and the baby's brain doesn't have time to process or think about the information it gets, let alone integrate it.
02 Parents attach too much importance to the education of their babies and report too many training courses
Some parents, starting with early education, have their children attend a series of training classes and then spend their days at different institutions, regardless of their children's interests and so on. If they don't learn well or fall behind a little, they blame their child for causing a psychological burden at a very young age, and stress can lead to poor sleep, which in turn can affect the child's brain development and lead to a lack of attention and memory.
There was nothing wrong with the kids, it was just that the parents didn't find the right way. Early education experts believe that the main reason for poor memory is the inattention of infants. Attention is the basis of memory. So if you want to improve your baby's memory, you have to first improve your baby's attention and interest. This requires parents and teachers to work together to train their children's attention.
The master of Russian literature once said that "memorization is the gymnastics of memory" He insisted on doing memory gymnastics every day, getting up every morning to recite some knowledge that must be memorized, checking and developing his memory, enough to see that memory can be improved through deliberate practice. But parents may ask, if you keep your baby doing recitations, how do you train your child to do it? Let's start with their favorite game.
There's a simple game called "Never Forget". See who has a better memory than mom? Take out the toys that your child likes and place them from left to right. Let your baby watch for 10 seconds. Cover it with a cloth and have darling tell you what it is from left to right? Babies are inherently competitive. If you're wrong, do it again. If you're right, it's harder to challenge. Through such games, the baby can improve his memory, he is willing to go to the game with the children, play together, enjoy more happiness than others every time.
Psychologists have shown that children between the ages of 5 and 12 make significant improvements in remembering new information, and that as long as they have a good memory and are better at learning new information, children become more confident. Things are moving forward. In recent years, many education experts have summarized many memory training methods according to the law of memory, such as systematic memory method, alternating memory method, dialectical memory method, comparative memory method, trial memory method, associative memory method, etc., which can effectively apply words and achieve good results. Any training of children can not be boring, annoying, parent-child games is a good way, exercise children's attention, thinking ability in the game, play for 10 minutes a day, can strengthen the child's memory.
[Small animals sit in rows] alternate memory, short-term memory enhancement
Short-term memory capacity can be called memory breadth, short-term memory training is good, can remember the potential is good.
How to play:
1) Prepare your child's favorite toys, such as plush toys, cartoon characters, etc., and place them on the table or on the floor.
2) Simulate the scene of the baby in the classroom, put on the small animals, such as 8 children can be placed in 2 rows, each row of 4.
3) The animals are then numbered and a number card is placed to represent the student number of each animal.
4) Give your child a minute and let him remember the location and number of each animal.
5) Then the child is blindfolded and the parents change seats for the animals.
6) The child removes the blindfold to help the animal return to its original position.
My family has a set of Peppa Pig toys, there are all kinds of animal friends, so in the daughter very much like to play this game, has been very interested, a friend to play this game, because she did the exercises in advance, so it will be better than other children, she enjoyed in the process of transcendence, not only achieved the purpose of enhancing memory, but also let the child gain self-confidence.
The game of "sitting in rows of small animals" is actually the recovery of position and the exercise of children's direction memory. Of course, children like to change the way of play, in fact, can also be derived from many games, can be poker, can also be color cards, can change the mode of interaction with children, spend 10 minutes a day, as long as you insist, there will be gains.
[Memory expert] Memory technique, the words of a person are spoken
Specific gameplay: Generally more than 3 people are required to play and sit together.
1) We start with names, like "Apple".
2) The participants in the game speak in a circular direction, with each person repeating all the words said by the previous person through associations.
3) If someone says something wrong, the game is over.
4) Of course, the rules can be rewritten.
One person said, apple, two people said, apple, banana, and the third person said, apple, banana, strawberry, and also: apple, banana, strawberry, blueberry. This game can also add other rules, such as telling a story, story after story.
There are many small games that can improve children's memory, which is much better than forcing children to memorize by rote, rote memorization can stimulate children's interest, 10 minutes a day can not only improve children's memory, but also improve the relationship between parents and children.
