Mrs. Steiner grabbed five or six colored hair bands in one hand and flashed by in front of her daughter. Then she asked her daughter how many hair bands she had. At first, the speed was slow, so that the child had enough time to pay attention to the hair band in her hand. Later, the speed became faster and faster, and finally it was only a blink of an eye.
At first, my daughter lost more times. Later, when my daughter guessed correctly, she turned to test her mother, and as a result, her mother lost more. This kind of attention game is used to cultivate children's attention. Because children want to win in the game, they must try to concentrate on the game for a certain period of time and refrain from distracting themselves.
For children, inattention is mainly manifested in not being able to listen to the teacher carefully. For children's eyes, parents should educate their children about the importance of listening to the teacher's lectures, teach them to try to find out the interesting places of the teacher's lectures, and improve their interest in listening to the lectures. If the teacher's lecture is really not very interesting, it is difficult to arouse children's interest. At this time, parents may wish to teach their children to consider the purpose of the lecture. For example, tell yourself that you will do better in the next exam after listening to this class. This can promote the child's intentional attention.
This is how Guo Zhen, a young college student, controls his attention. His method is "chasing the teacher". Guo Zhen explained it this way: "Beads can be worn in strings to look better, and learning knowledge can also be done. In the classroom, the teacher's lecture is a link, and a link is not well understood. Even if it takes twice as long after class, it's hard to make up. If this continues, it will become more and more backward. Therefore, I ask myself to follow the teacher's ideas. Simply put, it is called' chasing the teacher'. "
Guo Zhen gave an example: "once in class, my deskmate made fun of me, took my pen and twisted my arm." I'm really angry and want to fight back. It suddenly occurred to me that I couldn't interrupt my train of thought. " Therefore, I try my best to be patient, not to delay listening and not to affect others. Because listening to lectures in class is very effective and doing homework is very labor-saving, so I have a lot of time to study by myself. From the second day of junior high school, I taught myself the mathematics course in senior high school and was admitted to the university in advance. "
Guo Zhen's method of "chasing teachers" is a good exercise of intentional attention. When explaining things to their children, many parents always have to repeat them several times, for fear that their children will not remember them until they get bored, which will easily make them careless when listening to others, unable to grasp the main contents of others at one time and accustomed to repeating them constantly. So it's best for parents to explain things to their children only once. Let children concentrate when listening to their parents for the first time, so continuous training can improve children's concentration ability.
