The daughter is now in kindergarten and has about 1,200 literate levels, and is still growing every day.
The process of teaching my daughter to read is not smooth sailing, and the pits I have stepped on are also difficult to describe, so I wrote out my experience for the reference of parents and friends.
1, do not dwell on the pros and cons of kindergarten children's literacy, but to see whether children have the desire to read.
When the child was 3 years old, I consulted a lot of information, and there were different opinions about the child's kindergarten literacy problem, but I was more inclined to let the child read.
3 to 6 years old is the peak of children's brain development, but also the child's curiosity and curiosity is very strong age, if the child is curious about words, why stop the child's curiosity and curiosity?
Children generally enter a sensitive period of literacy at the age of 3 or 4, and they will have a strong interest in Chinese characters that appear in daily life. Parents will take the initiative to ask: "What is written on that box?" How do you pronounce the words on that sign? At this time, parents can guide their children to start recognizing words according to the situation.
In addition, the first grade of primary school requires students to read about 950, will write about 350 words, if the child has no literacy foundation at all, the child just went to primary school in learning new words will encounter difficulties, will feel that homework is too difficult, too tired, it is easy to breed boredom, so that students and parents in the child's primary school stage is difficult to have a good start.
2, do not teach children to recognize words in isolation, but put them in the context to make children and Chinese characters mixed with each other.
At the beginning of teaching children to recognize Chinese characters, parents do not have to be too deliberate, nor can they be too rigid. It is also not necessary to ask how many words a child must learn in a day or how many words to know at once.
Instead, it is subtly familiar with the child and the Chinese characters, so that the children can slowly remember the Chinese characters, laying a good foundation for going to primary school and realizing independent reading.
Classmate Li Hong, a special chinese teacher in a well-known primary school, told me that in terms of literacy, do not make specific requirements for kindergarten children, as long as the child is interested, you can subtly cultivate the child's literacy interest.
Parents can read picture books and poems while reading and pointing at the words, so that children can gradually have a familiarity with each word.
Or in daily life, see some signs, words on plaques and read them out, so that children gradually remember.
Parents can diversify their choice of literacy books, such as the combination of situational literacy and vocal recognition books to stimulate the child's brain with multiple senses, which is of great benefit to the child's memory and intelligence.
3, do not let the child learn to write too early, the child generally enters the writing sensitive period when he is 5 or 6 years old, and it is not too late for the child to learn to write after 5 years old.
When the child is about 3 years old, learn to recognize words slowly, and do not let the child rush to write.
Because the child's hand muscles have not yet developed perfectly before the age of 5, the hand strength is still weak, let the baby write prematurely, one is that the baby cannot write well, and the other is that the baby will feel more tired, which will cause resistance to writing, which is not conducive to the growth of the baby.
Some parents confuse literacy with writing, believing that only by learning to write can they be steadfast, which is actually a misunderstanding.
Conform to the natural laws of the sensitive period of children's literacy, satisfy the child's curiosity, exercise the child's memory and brainpower, let the child first learn to recognize words, and after mixing with Chinese characters, wait until the child is 5 or 6 years old to write sensitive period, because there is an impression of Chinese characters in the brain, it is much easier to learn to write.
Let the child learn to recognize words first, lay the foundation for learning to write, and do not rush to let the child learn to write.
Therefore, we must never promote seedlings, but everything must conform to the natural growth of children, and teach children to read and write according to the situation.
4. When children learn to recognize words, they should encourage more and fight less.
For kindergarten children, as long as the child has a strong interest in learning to recognize words, parents should be happy, no matter how many words the child can recognize in a month, parents should be pleased, and do not feel that the child learns to recognize words too slowly, and can not blame the child for "stupid" "bad memory" and so on.
For kindergarten children, more important than literacy is that children are interested in Chinese characters, willing to learn and accept new knowledge, and protect children's curiosity and curiosity.
Any act of rushing for quick success is a destruction of children's curiosity and creativity, and it is not advocated. Therefore, cultivating children to recognize words is in line with the needs of children's natural growth laws, not out of any comparison or utilitarian needs.
The purpose of the "double reduction" policy implemented by primary and secondary school students is also to release children's natural nature, let children have more free time to do what they are interested in, and improve children's autonomy and creativity. Therefore, for kindergarten children, literacy is a natural result, parents must remember not to force children to recognize, and can not be because of the child's literacy speed and blame or blame the child.
5. The tools for teaching children to read should be as diverse as possible and avoid singleness.
In order to prevent children from finding literacy boring, I, like many parents, provide their children with a variety of literacy tools.
I used a paid literacy APP for my children, bought a lot of literacy cards and various literacy books, and used some picture books with large fonts and pinyin as literacy books.
Among them, there are two more classic literacy books that I feel it is necessary to introduce to parents, these two books are highly recommended to me by my old classmate, Li Hong, a special grade Chinese teacher in primary schools.
Both books have a literacy volume of 1600 words, including literacy and writing in the first and second grades of primary school.
