"Reading history makes people wise, reading poetry makes people witty, mathematics makes people careful, science makes people profound, ethics makes people grave, and the study of logic and rhetoric makes people eloquent: all that you learn becomes character." Francis Bacon's words are regarded as the motivation of reading by many people. For my daughter and I, I really feel the benefits of reading. Cultivating my daughter's habit of reading is still inspired by this book. The book 100 Suggestions for Parents says: Don't give children extra homework to improve their grades, just teach them to read and think. Reading is like making the mind feel a certain meaning and arousing its awakening.
The "Proposal" also requires us to remember that the harder it is for children to learn, the more obstacles they will encounter in their studies, and they should read more books. Reading can teach him to think, and thinking will become a stimulus to stimulate intelligence. Books and life ideas inspired by books are the most powerful means to prevent rote learning, which is the enemy that dulls people's wisdom. The more a student thinks, the more things he doesn't understand, the sharper his sensitivity to knowledge, the stronger his interest and desire to learn, and the easier it is for our parents to educate. Guiding children to read some famous books is very beneficial to cultivate their healthy personality. Mr. Tao Xingzhi, a famous educator, once said, "How many books to read at the bottom of life" is a famous book recommended by the Ministry of Education.
Understanding children's emotions is what our teachers and parents should pay attention to. Compassion, a very precious emotion, is the foundation of many noble emotions. The education of children should not be based on abstract truth, but on emotional education. Teachers and parents should care about children's self-confidence. For children, self-confidence is the driving force for them to embark on the journey of life calmly. Self-confidence is like a catalyst of human ability, which mobilizes all human potential and promotes the functions of all parts to reach the best state. High-level gameplay is based on constant repetition, which becomes a part of human nature, thus raising people's level to a new level. If a person's growth route is along such a positive trend, it is conceivable that its cumulative effect is very considerable.
Self-confidence and lack of self-reliance are not enough. Imagine that in such an era of fierce competition, the idea of "men are superior to women" still controls most people. As a woman, she has no independent ability. How can she get a foothold in society? Parents should know this truth well, so why not give this golden key to her by cultivating her daughter's self-confidence and self-reliance, so that she can benefit for life? Regarding self-confidence, Napoleon Hill said: "The power of self-confidence is amazing. Believe in yourself, then all difficulties will not be difficult. Because self-confidence is a positive psychological quality, an internal driving force for people to forge ahead, and an essential psychological quality for a person to succeed. "
Teachers should talk about art, so should parents. In parents' art, one or two examples are worth a ton of preaching. Our children are watching us. What we are is more powerful than what we say. So as parents, we should have five kinds of consciousness, and I think our teachers should also have these five kinds of consciousness. The first is a sense of mission. Our sense of mission is to let children learn to be happy and learn to be useful to society. The second sense of responsibility is that no one will educate our children for us. As parents, it is irreplaceable. Parents have the priority to get along with their children, and should not intentionally or unintentionally push the responsibility of educating their children to others. The third sense of urgency teaches children that we cannot hesitate. Children need our education today, but it may be late tomorrow. Time is a treasure, once lost, it can never be found again. The fourth is the sense of equality. Parents should become their children's "big friends", learn to see what happens to them from their children's eyes, and give help according to their reality. Fifth, a sense of humor is related to the ability to cope with challenges, and is closely related to an optimistic attitude towards life and a positive world outlook.
In a word, the future competition will be the competition of compound talents, and the society needs general talents, that is, competitors are required to know a variety of knowledge and get familiar with new jobs quickly. This requires our children not only to study hard and master the existing scientific and cultural knowledge, but also to master the means and skills to explore new knowledge, and to be innovative and challenging.
