Second, import: share reasons

This book has a total of 150 pages. It is a thin book, but it is very beneficial, especially for parents. I couldn't forget it after reading it, and I felt I had to tidy it up.

The greatest significance of this book to me is that it gives me a feeling like a reassurance, which makes my anxious old mother calm down gradually and adds some reflection, growth and belief on the road of parenting.

We often see such news: some parents have a heart attack for their children's homework; Parents sent their children to the railway station in the middle of the night because they didn't do their homework well and threw him a bowl; Some children committed suicide directly from the overpass because they listened to their parents' constant nagging; There are also situations such as killing mothers ... some news we see is very funny, and some news we feel very sorry and sad. The common topic of these satirical or sad news reports is family education.

Many examples of failed education are because they violate the law of children's growth, encourage children to get quick success and instant benefit, and constantly persecute them. The potential given to them in life is constantly suppressed and hit, and finally becomes worse and worse. The educational concept introduced in this book is to respect children, appreciate children, follow the law of children's growth, and let children grow up happily.

Third, the introduction of core concepts.

The core idea of this book is appreciation education. Just like when he was a child, we taught him to talk and walk. We don't care about returns and utility. When parents get along with their children, they are full of happiness and joy. We didn't expect him to write an article and run away immediately. I am no longer frustrated by repeated failures, but give more encouragement and praise to my children. I firmly believe that my children can talk and walk. However, with the growth of children's age, parents' anxiety is increasing day by day, and their expectations for children are far beyond their normal growth range. There is less and less concern and encouragement for children, and more and more blame, disappointment, sarcasm and even beatings make children worse and worse.

Appreciation education is to awaken the return of family ties, is a kind of love without utility and return, is an education that teaches children to learn to speak and walk, and is an education that always believes that children can do it. By discovering the advantages and strengths of children, fully affirming and constantly strengthening them, the trend of starting a prairie fire is gradually formed and the life of "good children" is awakened.

Four. Introduction of specific chapters

Hong Zhou's daughter, Zhou Tingting, was born deaf. In the end, Mr. Zhou Hong fell in love with education when educating her daughter, and constantly explored and studied, which not only cultivated her daughter into a talent, but also became an expert in civilian education.

The table of contents of this book is clear at a glance, and six chapters record their six awakenings respectively. It is a chronological record of Tingting's growth story and teacher Zhou's mental journey from birth to studying in the United States. There are not many chapters, and "tips and questions" are designed at the back of each chapter to help readers draw the key points. There are also some parents' reading notes. It can be seen that the author especially hopes to convey this kind of appreciation education, and hopes that readers can really read, think and practice.

The first awakening is an emotional awakening. As soon as the child was born, she knew that she was completely deaf, and the whole family fell into despair. Later, after watching the TV series "Coagulation" and Oshima's love for terminally ill children, he realized his mistakes and problems and made up his mind to give his children unlimited love and unrequited love. Finally, she took her children to the road of fighting against fate and finally lost everything. Tingting finally recovered some hearing. The author has also studied many methods to guide children's written and oral expression, so that children can enter primary school smoothly.

The first awakening is crucial. Without the first awakening, there is no story behind. The helpless scene described by the author makes people cry. Moreover, it is his persistent love and active exploration of learning methods that enabled him to hold up a sky for his daughter and enable Tingting to go to a regular primary school.

The second awakening is the awakening of methodology. The author realizes that teaching children how to speak and how to walk are the two magic weapons of education, and more firmly develops the cosmic potential in her daughter's life. In the end, Tingting played in school, and even remembered the last 1000th of pi on10, and Tingting became famous all over the country.

The third awakening is the awakening of attitude. After Tingting became famous, parents from all over the country came to visit the methods of cultivating prodigies. Teacher Zhou continued to explore the mystery of education, and finally found that the word "yes" was the word. She firmly believed in children's behavior and solved the fundamental problem of attitude towards life. It lists all kinds of wrong practices and attitudes of parents in educating their children, and how to encourage their children and firmly believe that they can do it. For example, give a thumbs up and say "much better" to your child.

The fourth awakening is a theoretical awakening. Tingting's education began to bear fruit, and she was admitted to a key high school in Nanjing. Teacher Zhou also held educational lectures all over the country, formally put forward the concept of "appreciation education" and further explored its connotation:

Appreciation means unconditionally respecting personality, trusting potential and understanding personality.

Appreciation means strategic enthusiasm, patience and tolerance, and friendly tips.

The fifth awakening is a philosophical awakening, and the wisdom of appreciating education is a word-communication, and the lives of parents and children are in a harmonious state. Harmony with one's own life, harmony with the life around, and harmony with the life of all things in nature.

The sixth awakening is the awakening of practice. Appreciation education is not intoxicated with self-awakening, but appeals to all parents to act and become discoverers and advocates of appreciation education.

Verb (abbreviation of verb) other supplements

The books are all short stories, especially the story between Mr. Zhou himself and his daughter, which is particularly touching and makes people sincerely admire such a selfless and wise father.

For example, Mr. Zhou took his daughter all over the country, went bankrupt and sought medical advice for her daughter, and finally got acupuncture treatment in a hospital in Shanghai. "A new type of electroacupuncture therapy called electrocution, in which more than a dozen silver needles are inserted into the powerful acupoints one inch deep in Tingting's ear, and it is electrified for half an hour, which makes people tremble all over!" At first Tingting was filled with endless tears and begging, and later Tingting sat in a chair for treatment.

Meanwhile, the whole family tried their best to treat Tingting's deafness. When riding a bike, I repeatedly pointed to the street lamp and said "light". I ignored the strange eyes of people around me and didn't care about embarrassment at all. Riding for 40 minutes, shouting for 40 minutes, screaming at the top of my lungs. Finally, Tingting can talk at last.

Mr. Zhou is also a very wise man. It is his wholehearted exploration and study of educational books and materials that enabled him to find appreciation education, and also created and developed many specific methods to educate children so that they can play in middle school. For example:

Write what you say to your daughter on the wall, on the floor, on paper, and even on the back of your daughter's hand to create a written language environment for her.

Write a shopping diary, a medical diary, a play diary, a visit diary, a school diary and so on.

In life and speaking, methods such as "playing with words" let her daughter pass the oral barrier and become a strong written language.

Make the pi of 1000 an absurd story, and Tingting will remember it in 10 days.

Play math, composition and abacus, and all learning takes the form of games to encourage children to do better.

Think about how we accompany our children. I have relatives who just brush their mobile phones and supervise their homework. In fact, there is a lack of high-quality companionship and little attention to the real needs of children. I just ask blindly, I don't know what problems my child has encountered in the process of solving problems, and I haven't thought about solving problems with him or cultivating children's problem-solving ability.

Many people have complained to me about the trouble of accompanying children to do their homework, but when I really put forward some suggestions. They always perfunctory, no action, no change. Maybe I haven't had time to help with my homework myself. It's really easy to doubt standing and talking.

There are many golden sentences in the educational concept, each of which is inspiring, such as:

1. The awakening power of every kind of life is unstoppable and unstoppable.

2. The most essential need in human nature is to be respected and appreciated.

There are no crops that can't grow well, only people who can't grow well. There are no children who can't teach well, only parents and teachers who can't teach well.

4, the ratio is not terrible, the problem is that the advantages of other children are often compared with the shortcomings of their own children.

Everyone has a happy and successful life experience. The difference between people is that most people forget this feeling of happiness with the growth of life, while a few people continue this feeling of happiness all their lives. They are the real winners.

6. Whenever I find a good method and get a result, the idea that comes with it is often to overthrow it as soon as possible and replace it with a better method.

Sixth, summary.

Fascinated by education, he thinks about eating, walking and even sleeping, and writes down good methods as soon as he thinks of them. Really not crazy, not alive. Teacher Zhou, an ordinary worker in Grade Three, studied education and became an education expert. From being forced at the beginning to being fascinated later, he fully proved the law of ten thousand hours, and also proved that heaven rewards diligence. Education knows no boundaries, classes or academic qualifications.

This book is also the first serious reading experience and reading sharing I have written. It means a lot to me, because I am extremely reluctant to watch it a second time and I am unwilling to start sorting it out. But I deeply feel that if you don't read it several times and start sorting it out, it is not real reading, and it is also extremely inefficient reading. This activity of not quitting school finally forced me to act, and finally put my reading plan and reading feeling plan on the agenda.

I am very grateful for this persecution, and I am greatly relieved when I say that. I finally have an explanation for myself. Anyway, I took the first step to write a review. My writing style is average, basically in the final stage, few people have played it, but I have a sense of accomplishment.

At the same time, I really have a deeper understanding of the concept and content of this book. I still have to read deeply, open my books, take notes, write book reviews and force me to read.
