Lack of imaginative concepts and wrong body movements can affect the effectiveness of learning. Today we share a mother's observation, she saw many examples of children learning in their daily lives due to learning "stuck" in a certain place and the learning effect is not ideal, they are not learning ability is worse than others, but "card" in the average person never thought of the place, today's article hopes to inspire everyone.

I can't learn carpentry to draw
When my husband decided to switch from an architect's office to interior design, I also went to the interior design classroom to learn about floor drawing, the concept of three-dimensional is actually very interesting, at the beginning the teacher used some graphics, let us judge how to present the pattern three-dimensionally.
There was a classmate in the class who impressed me very much. He worked as a carpenter with his father, he could read the graphic design of interior designers, and often thought that if he could draw design drawings, he might not need to be a labor-oriented carpenter. So he signed up for a computer drawing class.
In fact, he was not very old at that time, but perhaps because of the relationship between hard work and work environment, he seemed to be much older than other classmates. The concept of cartography is not the same as flat drawing, it is a concept that is slowly modeled, but this carpentry classmate can't learn anything.
The teacher was a graduate student of the Department of Architecture, very young, but the computer drawing technology was very good, he went out of his way to explain the basic concept of three-dimensional to Mr. Carpenter, but no matter how hard he tried to teach, the carpentry students could not understand "obviously only a few lines on paper, why everyone can see the thickness and height."
The carpentry classmate said a sentence that I should never forget in my life: "If there were bricks to play with when I was a child, will I still be a carpenter now?" "It's like irony, it's like self-deprecation, and it's more sentimental.
At the moment, the classroom fell silent, no one dared to say a word, and after a long time, I heard the teacher say: "I'm sorry!" ”

Lower the height
In order to understand the difficulties of children's learning
When my daughter was in her lower grades, she once wrote homework outside, and across the table was another mother and daughter, and the girl had reached the upper grade. While I was with my daughter, I heard the mother explain the area of the triangle, from the gentle explanation of the formula, slowly more and more angry.
Later, he dropped the textbook in a huff and said, "Forget it, you are not learning mathematics material, I don't care." After breathing away, the girl picked up her textbook and sobbed.
I asked the girl, "Can you borrow me to read the textbook?" Auntie try to see if you can see where you don't understand. ”
The girl pushed the textbook to me without hesitation, and I waited for her to calm down before asking, "Where do you not understand?" The girl replied to me with a crying voice: "The paper is obviously flat, where is the height of the triangle?" ”
At that time, I suddenly understood that the girl's problem was the same as the carpenter's problem. Obviously, it is a thin triangle pattern on the paper, just like flattening in the textbook, where is the "high"? Obviously the computer is flat, where do those figures come from in height and thickness?
Later, I took out a piece of paper, the bevel line was folded in half, into two triangles, let her think about how to calculate the area of the triangle after the folding, I put the paper parallel in front of her line of sight, she quickly deduced the equation came, I put the textbook up again, asked her: "Now, do you think that this triangle in the textbook has the same height as the triangle in my hand?" ”
The child suddenly realized, I was also shocked, the original child looked at the textbook graphics on the table, will not understand the obvious flat triangle spread on the table, textbook, how can there be "height"! When the textbook stood up, they could see that the triangle did have a "height." The problem of the carpenter master is that he cannot turn the plane into a three-dimensional.

Body movements may also hinder learning
Another time, I was chatting with my daughter's music teacher and watching several children play in front of us, a seven-year-old child picked up the automatic slewing yo-yo that I had bought from the United States and tried to play, I watched it for a while and said lightly: "Her wrist..." The teacher nodded, and then said: "Can't turn." ”
It was a child I was in a lot of pain, very close to my daughter since I was a child. After music lessons that day, after coming home with us, I wrote my homework with my daughter. I watched the child write a few words and then stand up and play twice, write two words and touch the things on the side of the table, and the daughter felt that she had been distracted, not doing her homework well, and was a little angry with her.
I sat on the side and watched, remembering that when my daughter first started learning music, the teacher found a problem not long ago, took out her treasured yo-yo to play with her daughter for a long time, and her daughter's wrist would not turn, so she would only use the strength of her whole arm to exert force when she played the piano, which would not only be tiring, but also affect the learning and timbre.
To this end, the teacher collects a lot of toys that can strengthen the child's wrist rotation function. In addition to the formal music lessons, all musical concepts and the physical necessities required to play the piano are integrated into a variety of games.
For example, playing basketball and shooting balls, playing yo-yos, waving badminton, many small children because the wrist is not very good at turning up and down, the ball is with the strength of the whole arm, so the game chosen by the teacher is very important.
That was the first time I experienced what is called "playing with power", it turns out that there are many people with children to get along and play, in fact, to help children prepare for the future.
Daughter angry friend writing homework is not attentive, but I see that child, every time "lazy", "distracted", the subconscious action is to press the right hand with the left hand, I know that she is not not inattentive, not lazy, but will not use the wrist strength to write, so her posture of holding the pen is the entire arm and palm are continuing to exert force, very hard.
I was thinking that if my daughter hadn't been discovered by the teacher early on about her wrist problem, then I might have also come to the conclusion that she was "not attentive" and "lazy" to her learning attitude.

Children are not talentless
I just don't know where my card is yet
Slowly, I found in the process of children's learning that children have many problems, in fact, they can be found in preschool games, and can also be solved through many games and ways.
Can't read the history textbook, then from the game, practice to explain a thing in chronological order; children can't understand the causes and consequences, parents can also think about how to add more interaction to the dialogue in the game, guide children to become more thoughtful.
The girl in the upper grades, if she hadn't figured out her problems, might have really believed that she didn't have a "talent" for math, and had given up math and herself. Maybe she will choose to swallow her doubts and questions, and just memorize the formula to cope with the exam.
I remember telling her the other day, "You may not be able to understand how flat things can have height, next time you look at the textbook upright, or make one out of blocks." You're not talentless, you just don't know where your card is. ”
Don't label your child's mistakes and problems too early, your child may be stuck in places we can't think of, and have been repeatedly hitting the wall in corners that no one knows.
The way to get along
There are interesting and interesting things and attitudes. Analyze the feelings of both sexes, the psychology of men and women, interpret the origin of love marriage and family, discuss the wisdom of getting along with friends in the workplace and friends, share love skills, mother-in-law and daughter-in-law relationship, learn children's parent-child relationship, family education, and make your life more harmonious.
