You can write the manuscript in English: most children were born in America and received English training.

They first formed the habit of thinking in English. We can ask them to type the manuscript in English and then translate it.

I once read such a story, which inspired me a lot. Wei Shusheng is a famous teacher in China. There is a classmate in his class who can't write a composition. Teacher Wei asked him, "Can you write a sentence?" He said, "This will do!" .

Teacher Wei said, "Then write a sentence in your composition." He wrote: "School starts today."

By the time he wrote his composition for the second time, Teacher Wei asked him to write two sentences. In this way, from one sentence to two sentences, three sentences.

The student finally learned to write a composition.

In fact, from the beginning of a sentence, many a mickle makes a mickle, which is the secret of writing a composition. "Paying attention everywhere is learning, and practice is writing." Please look at the composition of our classmates below.

Their writing is very immature, and there are no flowery words. However, between the lines, you will find how lovely and amiable the happy world of children is. My mother's best dish is jijingjing. My mother's best dish is spring rolls.

The taste of spring rolls is great! My mother does it very seriously. She made the stuffing first.

There are chicken, eggs, mushrooms and cabbage in the stuffing. She mixed these things together and wrapped them in spring rolls.

Finally, fry it in oil. After frying, it is hot and fragrant.

I like eating spring rolls made by my mother very much, because they are delicious. Look, my mouth is watering.

Crispy outside and fragrant inside. I also want to learn to make spring rolls.

My mother had a red car before our family used Peng Chuyang. My mother and I like it very much.

My father told me that when I was born, my father used this car to take me home. Later when I grew up, my mother drove me to school and went swimming.

This car is getting old, so we bought a new one. However, my mother and I always miss it.

3. Why are foreign children not afraid of writing?

Why are foreign children not afraid to write? Because they got this writing tip 2065438+May 20, 2005 Author: Little Peanut Network ViewNo.: 349 Share and collect mobile phone reading, just one second.

Great, everything is under control! Ziyi: Writing is a headache for both adults and children. Two big problems, I don't know what to write and I don't know how to write. In foreign countries, children's handwriting is similar to ours. Ziyi: Writing is a headache for both adults and children.

Two big problems, I don't know what to write and I don't know how to write. In foreign countries, children's writing is a little different from ours.

Here, the teacher often gives a proposition, and then the child plays by himself, and then the child becomes blind, and the parents are very upset. In fact, for children, most of them really don't have strong expressive ability, analytical ability and writing organization ability, so it is difficult to write openly.

Foreigners teach children to write, which is not so abstract. They will follow a set of simple steps and methods to help children complete their compositions.

For example, in many schools, teachers will give children very specific reading tips to help them sort out ideas, conceive themes, determine writing outlines, revise drafts, and complete editing; For the main steps of children's writing, there are some exercise papers for each step to help children complete it step by step. You may think, why do foreigners have to talk about methods and tools in everything they do? That's true.

The way they teach is often to break down difficult problems and concretize abstract concepts, so learning will become simpler and more interesting for children. Ok, let's see what reading tips look like. A set of reading tips consists of four parts.

The core is to help children determine what to write through some questions. Let's take a look at a set of Prompt 1 for writing a self-report or diary. Here, children should write an important thing that happened to them, or an impressive memory. Step 1: Brainstorm, what should I write? Foreigners think that four paragraphs of children's composition is enough.

The teacher used this paper to write hints for the children. This paper has two parts. 1, the above part is aimed at each paragraph, the teacher asks questions-this is a hint, use questions to help children figure out what to write; 2. Below is a circle divided into four parts, each circle represents a paragraph, and the children write down what they think in each paragraph box. After this step, the child basically determines what to write, that is, the writing outline.

Let's take a look at the question the teacher gave us: Paragraph 1: Tell me about the feeling of doing something for the first time. What did you learn from it? The second paragraph: describe the situation before, during and after the incident. The third paragraph: Tell me how you feel. Will you do it again? Paragraph 4: Do you want this to happen to others? Why? Step 2: write the first draft paragraph by paragraph, using one piece of paper, four paragraphs, exactly four pieces of paper; Write the first draft of a paragraph on each piece of paper. The reason why each paragraph uses a separate piece of paper is to give children enough room to play.

In this way, children will not feel the pressure to write a whole article, but pay attention to the current paragraph and feel a sense of accomplishment after completing a paragraph. Step 3: revise the draft and compare it with the outline to see if everything you want to write has been compared with the outline in chapters. There are three things to do: 1, read in a low voice-be sure to read your own article silently, and you will find mistakes, unsmooth places and missing things.

2. Choose words-see if the words are appropriate, circle at least three words that need to be improved, and reduce repetitive words. 3. Transition-see if some important turning words are appropriate, such as: for example, in addition, for example, also. And so on-foreigners think that turning words and conjunctions are particularly important for training writing logic.

The fourth part: Make a final check on the article like the editor-in-chief. After the article is revised, the whole writing process is not over yet, and the whole article needs to be checked again: 1. Is the topic appropriate and interesting? 2. Is the writing, punctuation and grammar of the article good? Teachers often ask students to check each other's compositions, such as: 1, marking each other's grammatical mistakes with colored pens, 2. Are there any better suggestions on words, and 3. How about writing down your own suggestions and praises for each other's reference? Does it work? Let's look at examples of writing other types of articles. No matter what you write, you can use the four-step method mentioned above. In order to avoid repetition, we only look at how the teacher prompts the children to decide what to write and how to write. This is the first step. The next three steps are the same as writing a readme, so I won't repeat the explanation.

2. Writing a fictional story is fictional and fantasy, but it requires that the cause and effect of the matter be made clear. For example, to write a "magical forest story" related to camping in the wild, you can list the following paragraphs of the outline for children 1: Please describe the camping experience, which is the background of this event; Who were you with, where did you go, what did you bring and what did you do there? Paragraph 2: Describe how you left the camp and entered the enchanted forest. The third paragraph: Tell me how you got lost, how you felt and what you were going to do at that time. Finally, tell me how you got back to the camp and went home. 3. Expressing one's own opinions This kind of writing requires clearly stating one's own opinions and being well-founded. For example, the topic is "Talking about important issues in the world"-isn't this a scary topic? If you want to help your child talk about such a big problem and express his views clearly, you can guide him like this: Paragraph 1: What problems do you think there are in the world, and point out the most important one? Paragraph 2: Why do you think this problem has affected many people in the world? The third paragraph: list two efforts made by others to solve this problem; Make at least one suggestion of your own. Paragraph 4: Write three ways to remind more people to pay attention to this problem, and say what efforts you hope everyone will make to solve this problem. Does this make it concrete? It really feels like resignation, resignation. 4. Writing to convey information This kind of writing requires accurate and vivid language and exercises children's ability to state facts, for example, writing an article about "natural disasters".

4. Write a letter to a foreign child

Dear foreign children: Hello! I am a child of China, and I live in a peaceful environment.

China is a beautiful, rich and vibrant country, where there is no hatred or war. Our children in China are very happy.

Although we haven't met, I sympathize with you. I saw on TV that there is no peace in your place, and evil gunfire threatens you all the time.

In the war, many children lost their beautiful homes and relatives and became homeless refugees. Some children lost their bright classrooms, dear teachers, beloved schoolbags, classmates and friends.

When I know the news, I want to say: "War is terrible, and it does great harm to mankind." The war has brought you great pain, and I can feel your grief at losing your loved ones and your home.

Please don't worry, as long as you have the confidence and strong will to win, with the joint efforts of peace-loving people, you will be able to wait until the day of peace and have a bright tomorrow like us. I hope we can unite and appeal to the whole world: we want peace, not war, and let the god of peace live on earth forever.

May the flower of peace bloom forever! Children in China: Ai Heping 2065438+May 3, 2003.

5. How do foreign primary and secondary school students write their compositions?

About the starting point of writing: "Writing before reading" It is generally believed that children can learn to write only after they can read and write a certain number of words.

Donald Graves, a famous American educator, does not think so. He thinks that children will not learn to read before they learn to write. Instead, they learned to write before they learned to read. Starting from children's psychological characteristics, he compared articles to passwords, compared writing articles to coding passwords, and compared reading to cracking passwords.

He said: "In the eyes of children, it is easier to make a password than to crack it." Besides, if you know how to mend it, then you also know how to dismantle it.

Obviously, writing can promote reading. Graves believes that writing is a tool to express ideas. As long as children have ideas, they will instinctively use this tool to express their ideas.

He said: "Children's initial instinct is to draw symbols. Before primary school, they painted everywhere-walls, sidewalks, concrete slabs, windows with steam ... "Graves proved through surveys that 90% of children thought they could write when they started school; Only 15% children think they can read.

He told a story: a female teacher began to teach a first-grade child. She sent the composition to the child and said, "This is your own composition book. If you like, you can start writing now. " After a moment of meditation, the children all began to write.

Some children have been able to write some sentences; Some children can only write their own names; The rest of the children drew some pictures casually or simply. But no one said "I can't write".

In composition class, teachers usually ask children to keep quiet. But Graves found that children's early writing needs the help of mouth and hands.

He photographed the movements of children's hands when they were writing, and recorded the voices of children talking to themselves when they were writing with a miniature tape recorder. He found that when children write, they usually say things over and over again, and then write them on paper.

Facts show that children need their own pronunciation organs to help them write early. In the early writing process, it is not naughty for children to talk and draw in class, on the contrary, it is a normal activity for children to write.

After long-term observation and experiment, Graves also summed up a rule in children's learning and writing process, that is, from self-centeredness to self-criticism. At the beginning of writing, children are completely self-centered.

They have no fear of writing, whether others can understand it or not. He believes that this kind of self-confidence and self-enjoyment is the source of children's enthusiasm for learning to write.

He said, "Egocentrism has put on protective armor for itself. Children need this kind of armor.

At this stage, he will never stop to think whether others can understand what he has written. "After children go to school, with the continuous improvement of their writing ability, the" self-centered "writing stage cannot last long.

A great breakthrough comes when a child goes back to read something he is not satisfied with. Since then, children have entered the stage of looking at works with critical eyes.

From this time on, he will actively and continuously improve his writing style. Graves believes that this has entered a critical period for the development of children's writing ability.

7. How do American primary school students learn composition and arithmetic?

Generally speaking, in schools in China, American children learn English differently from China children.

I am a native American, and my children are in primary school. My American company, emicview, has specially designed courses to train foreign children to learn English to the level of their mother tongue.

The following are my views as a father and a teacher. American children have an English environment. They first learn everyday language at home/in life.

When children go to preschool (before the first grade), the teacher mainly teaches them to recognize letters and associate the pronunciation of letters with letters. Children guess the meaning of words and sentences in the book according to the pronunciation of letters, and begin to learn to read and write compositions. They have reading assignments every day and read at least one book suitable for students' English level.

After a year, children have read at least hundreds of books. The United States is rich in educational resources, and a large number of books suitable for students' English level can be borrowed free of charge from schools or local libraries.

The reading capacity of American students is very large compared with that of China schools, which is also the reason why American students are ahead in humanities courses. Unlike children in China who learn English, children in China spend a lot of time memorizing words.

American children learn to read and write mainly according to the pronunciation rules of letters. After American children reach the third grade, teachers will begin to pay attention to correcting their spelling mistakes and demand accurate spelling.

Generally speaking, American children spend a lot of time reading and writing, while China children spend a lot of time remembering words. Talking about Americans learning foreign languages.

American universities have foreign language requirements, otherwise they cannot graduate. American elementary schools also offer foreign language courses.

Good private middle schools offer hundreds of foreign languages, as long as students choose. Most foreign language teachers in the United States are native speakers.

The United States is an immigrant country, so it is relatively easy to find foreign teachers in various mother tongues. American students learn foreign languages, and schools often provide opportunities to study and communicate in that country.
