Parents know the importance of memory, especially children reading, learning, and even future work and life are inseparable from a good memory. Ancient beliefs that good memory mostly comes from the inheritance of parents. While brain innate factors do play an important role in memory, getting a good memory is entirely accessible through acquired exercise. Mr. Understander here to provide a few suggestions to parents:
First, cultivate children's concentration
We often complain that children "can't remember" things, but in fact, "can't remember" most of the time is because the child's concentration is not good enough. The child has left the attention to something, and the memory naturally disappears like a cloud of smoke.
If a person wants to achieve something in any field, he must have enough cognitive ability, and concentration is the basis of cognitive ability.
For children who are not focused enough, parents should not be too impatient, and they should not force their children to act according to their own wishes. We can pay attention to the child, if the child is interested in something, we take this thing as a starting point, let the child as long as possible to maintain attention to this thing for a long time, as long as the child is more focused than once, we give encouragement.
Children's attention is easily attracted to new things, so a good learning atmosphere is also one of the ways to cultivate children's concentration. A good learning atmosphere can help children become the dominant, so as to enjoy the joy of learning and avoid distraction.
Second, use memory games to stimulate children's interest
Memory is not boring indoctrination, when we find ways to improve children's memory, looking for ways to make children feel happy, will make our efforts more effective. However, the game is loved by most children, and we can create some interesting memory games to stimulate the child and thus enhance his memory.
For example, when visiting the park with the child, introduce the signs or symbol buildings along the way to the child: dessert shop, bus stop, ticket office, etc., let the child go home to draw a simple map, and draw the marker, the next time, take out the map, guide the child to point out the marker, if necessary, give the child a reward. It is worth noting that the whole process should not make the child feel that he is forced to complete the task, but let the child really feel the fun.
Third, flexibly use different memory methods
Human memory is divided into long-term memory and short-term memory. The human brain is like the memory and hard disk of the computer, short-term memory is stored in memory, and long-term memory is stored in hard disk.
When children endorse and memorize words, usually the number of passages and letters in the article is large, and the more difficult it is for children to remember. And when endorsing the book, most of the time can be quickly memorized, but as long as you wait a day or two and then ask the child to recite, the child has forgotten almost.
This is actually a very normal phenomenon, and in the face of this phenomenon of "forgetting quickly", it is necessary to constantly review and consolidate to achieve the purpose of remembering.
If the content of the recitation is boring, we can also teach children to use the association method to memorize. As long as the learning is linked to the actual life, the knowledge that needs to be memorized can be placed in practical application to deepen the child's memory.
Memory is something that takes time to cultivate. If we want to improve our memory, we must correct the attitude of memory and build our confidence with our children. Secondly, we must have perseverance, only by continuously applying a variety of wonderful memory methods to memory, can we truly improve children's memory.
