In the past, we also bought a bunch of expensive Legos and found online and offline courses to understand. We have some ideas, such as:
1, online courses are relatively cheap, but basically useless, because children are too young to understand and interact.
2. Offline training courses have advantages and disadvantages, and the relative price is relatively expensive. The course will be taught at three levels: low, middle and high. Most of the training teachers are young men with a kind and gentle attitude.
However, there is a common problem in these courses, that is, the higher the course level, the more obvious it is, and there is a lack of inspiration and guidance, which is related to the teacher's experience.
3. In the course, parents actually pay more attention to the process, hoping that children can learn the ability of hands-on and creation in the process, but most courses pay more attention to the results, so that children can build a beautiful model and then show it.
In fact, parents carefully observe that Lego and building block toys are "rough" piece by piece, and there is no limit to putting them together, because every child has different drawings in his heart.
What model does the child want to spell? Parents help him look at the drawings and help him build them. If he doesn't finish it one day, he will keep it and continue to build it the next day. If he wants to give up halfway, he should be encouraged to continue. The process of doing it together is what children and parents want most.
Generally speaking, the teaching AIDS used by institutions are regular Lego teaching AIDS. For children, these teaching AIDS are not only about how to assemble the toy, but also about why to assemble it like this and what possible ways to complete it. According to the headmaster there, this kind of teaching aid is not available in the market, and it is specially designed for teaching institutions.
In class, every child has his own Lego toy. Choose your own building blocks according to what the teacher said, and let the children find different building blocks suitable for different parts through their own observation ability. Then put the building blocks in different places according to their shapes. This process is mainly to train their hand-eye coordination ability. There is also the ability to innovate, because the overall structure of the excavator is fixed but the composition can be different, and each child can have his own ideas and work hard to realize them.
Taken together, you can learn a lot in class, which is really useful for children's growth. Although this kind of use may not be reflected in learning, it can play a role in children's future life.
If we want to help children improve these abilities, do we have to take Lego courses? The answer is no, there are many such toys on the Internet, and you don't have to use Lego. Our parents can patiently let their children splice toys and finish leather clothes. If parents can answer their children's questions all the way, they can still get the same effect as applying for Lego courses.
Only one is more professional and the other is more free. One is the atmosphere, and the other is the difference between playing by yourself. Moreover, it is quite expensive for most families to apply for a series of tens of thousands to tens of thousands of Lego courses. If parents can do it, they can save the money. Parents at home are busy, they don't have much time to spend with their children, and they can go to school without that kind of money. If the financial situation at home does not allow, parents can buy corresponding toys to play with their children, but the effect is the same.
