Having good grades and getting into a good school can be said to be what most parents expect from their children.
However, I believe that many parents have also found a problem, that is, children do not seem to be very "open- and open- in learning this matter, obviously the content of learning and examination is not difficult, but it is impossible to get good results.
With the expectation of their children, parents always can't help but ask questions, when will the child's "elm head" be enlightened? In fact, if you want to improve your child's intelligence, parents should not miss these 2 "golden periods".
What periods can be called the golden period of children's intellectual improvement?
1) The stage of the child's transition from concrete perception to abstract thinking
In the cognitive theory of the famous psychologist Piaget, children in early childhood do not yet have abstract consciousness, so they are more able to accept concrete perceptions in learning and life.
That is to say, children in early childhood can only perceive the world around them through objects that they can see and touch.
As children grow up, their brain development will enter the stage from concrete perception to abstract thinking, which ushers in the first golden period of children's intellectual improvement.
Children at this stage have gained a lot of knowledge from specific perceptions, including various objects, languages, and so on.
These concrete perceptions help children gradually acquire abstract thinking, and they are able to imagine many things that do not necessarily have substance, including knowledge and information.
This stage probably occurs around the age of 6 or 7, which is when the child has just entered elementary school.
If parents can give their children more encouragement at this stage of the child, the child's brain development and thinking transformation will be completed, and the child will appear smarter than before.
2) The child enters the post-pubertal stage
As children grow up, brain development continues, and children enter puberty in the second golden period of intellectual improvement.
Adolescent children will not only have a greater improvement in understanding ability, memory ability and childhood, but even children's emotions and emotions will change significantly.
Adolescent children are full of energy and begin to have their own independent thoughts, they do not need to be repeated by their parents, and they know the importance of learning for themselves.
In addition, after entering puberty, children's emotions and emotions are relatively rich, in addition to being able to grab knowledge in the learning process, they can also gradually gain empathy and empathy ability.
However, there is also a more obvious feature of children at this stage, that is, their self-awareness is too inflated, and there may be a situation of rebellious psychology and emotional loss of control.
Therefore, when the child enters this golden stage, the parent's education method can not only affect the child's intellectual development, but also affect the child's emotional intelligence and other aspects.
Although they understand the 2 golden periods of children's intellectual development, many parents still raise questions, that is, their children do not seem to have a clear sense of entering the "golden period". In fact, this is where every child's difference lies.
What should parents do if they feel like their children haven't been "enlightened"?
First, give your child some patience.
Although 6 and 7 years old is the first stage of children's thinking change, not all children will necessarily "open up" at this age.
Because each child's brain development rate is different, and some children's brain development level is slightly behind, then they may be able to have abstract thinking ability later.
Therefore, when parents see that children in primary school cannot remember the knowledge points taught by the teacher and the test results are not satisfactory, the most important thing to do is to give the child more patience.
Parents should not use uniform standards to require children to be "enlightened", but give their children more encouragement, so that they know that they will not always be worse than others.
Second, give your children more targeted training.
Development varies among children, so parents are able to find that their children, while prominent in some respects, still seem to lag behind their peers in others.
It is precisely because the child's characteristic development in all aspects is not synchronized, it will appear that the child seems to have not "opened the trick" for a long time.
At this time, parents may wish to give their children more targeted training.
For example, parents can focus on the simultaneous development of their children's left and right brains, which can make the child's brain develop further.
summary
As a parent, although you need to seize the golden age of your child's brain development, you also need to pay attention to teaching according to your aptitude, rather than pulling out seedlings to promote growth.
And the performance of each child's "enlightenment" is not necessarily the same, and parents still have to observe and be patient in the process of their children's growth.
