Good concentration is a powerful guarantee for children's future study, but many children lack this ability in real life. In fact, concentration is not innate, but needs to be cultivated.

So, what can we do as parents to help children to cultivate their concentration in order to let them finish their "work" calmly? Here are ten ways to teach parents how to cultivate their children's concentration for their reference.

1

Learning quantification

Let the children complete the learning task in stages within the specified time, and change the timing to quantitative. If the child can concentrate on finishing, parents should give him some encouragement (praise, touching, kissing, etc. ) and let him rest for 5- 10 minutes. Then complete the following study in the same way.

When children can do well, they can gradually extend the time to concentrate on doing problems at one time. Let the children tick off the requirements and conditions of the topic with a pen during the examination to prevent distractions from making mistakes. All these can enhance the child's self-confidence and make him feel that "I can consciously concentrate on doing one thing well".

2

Encourage children to develop their interests.

Encourage more at ordinary times and don't interfere with children doing what they like. When a child is absorbed in his small craft or observing small animals and forgets to eat, parents should remember not to disturb the child, but wait patiently for him to finish his work. You know, when a child is immersed in interest, he is inadvertently cultivating his attention.

three

Reduce nagging and condemnation

Try to minimize the nagging and reprimanding of children, so that children feel that he is the master of time. Teach children how to allocate time. When they concentrate on their homework in a relatively short time, they have more time to do other things. Children learn to control their time, have a sense of success, and have more confidence in doing things.

four

read aloud

Reading aloud is good for training attention. Arrange a time every day (10-20 minutes) for children to choose their favorite essays and read them aloud to their parents. This is a process of coordinating children's mouth, eyes and brain. In the process of reading, children should try not to read wrong, lose or be interrupted. He must be highly focused and stick to this kind of training.

five

Create a family learning environment

Create a family study environment conducive to concentration. Children's desks can only put books and other corresponding school supplies, and toys and food are not allowed; Stationery should be concise.

Children like pencil boxes with bright colors, exquisite patterns and diverse functions, and the functions are as simple as possible. Pencils and erasers should also be simple in shape and single in function to prevent children from playing with them as toys. Children's study should also be neat and concise, toys should be put away, not in conspicuous places; When children study, there should be no sound interference such as TV and telephone; Parents also try not to go in and out when their children are studying and interfere loudly.

In addition, indoor lighting is also an easily overlooked link. Soft and moderate lighting helps children to concentrate and create a quiet and tidy environment for them.

six

Don't buy too many toys

Don't buy too many toys for children in daily life. We often see such a situation that parents buy a lot of toys for their children, but the children often play this and that for a while. Too many toys will only distract children.

seven

Do one thing at a time.

Let children do only one thing at a time. People's attention resources are limited, and allocating them to different things will seriously consume the effectiveness of attention, especially when children's attention is developing and doing many things at the same time will damage the effective concentration of attention.

Therefore, even if children play with toys, they should turn off the TV. Don't play music when you do your homework.

eight

Self-binding game

Play "self-binding" games with children and integrate this way into their lives. You can consciously set up some situations to help children enhance their self-restraint ability under multiple stimuli and follow a gradual process.

nine

Intelligence training

Buy some intellectual training books and keep doing exercises every day. Some pictures and words to exercise observation, attention and memory, such as walking a maze, looking for things in many pictures, looking for mistakes, looking for similarities and differences (looking for differences in the same, looking for similarities in different), comparing sizes, lengths and so on.

Don't take too long, but you can extend the practice time later. You must practice every day. You can give a red five-star reward or score.

10

Use the marking method for training at any time.

In the classroom and at home, just stare at a certain point and object for a few minutes every day, or you can use shulte training method. This method is the most professional, popular and simple training method in the world.

Shulte Square is to draw 25 squares 1CM × 1CM on a square card, and fill in the Arabic numeral 1-25 on each square card at will, making a total of 25 squares. During the training, the subjects were required to point out their positions with their fingers in the order of 1-25, and read aloud at the same time.

Of course, there are many ways to cultivate children's concentration, and the specific implementation methods are not the same. Different children have different characteristics. When training children's concentration, parents should not compare him with other children. Instead, we should start from his focus baseline (the average time he focuses on things) and train patiently.

Parents can take appropriate and effective measures according to their children's personality characteristics to train and cultivate their children's concentration in a planned and purposeful way. As long as you adopt a scientific method and attitude and work hard, you will surely succeed.
