Children's cognitive psychology shows that children aged 3-6 are better at memorizing static information and imitating dynamic behavior, while pupils and adults are better at experience and logical reasoning. Therefore, this is precisely the difference in their cognitive patterns. 3-6-year-old children's literacy is to directly absorb the external outline of words, just like taking pictures of words with their eyes, instead of dividing a word into many strokes to remember the internal structure of words when primary school students and adults recognize words. For example, primary school students recognize the word "Fan" because it takes time to divide many strokes, while children aged 3-6 only need to take pictures of its shape, and there is only one image, which is unique, unlike "Big", "Too" and "Dog". Children aged 3-6 know 4,000 Chinese characters, which is equivalent to storing 4,000 photos in their brains. This is very easy for them, and it is not inconceivable for adults who are stronger than experience and logical reasoning according to their own abilities and cognitive models. Because the children's brains at this stage are almost blank, they instinctively need to take pictures of external information every day. The key is how to stimulate their interest, concentrate and display scientific and efficient teaching materials.

Grasp the critical period of 3-6 years old literacy

Child development psychology shows that 3-7 years old is the critical period of literacy. Four and a half to six and a half years old is the golden age for literacy. They are sensitive to pronunciation and font, but they don't understand the meaning of words, so they can read quickly and happily. Before the age of four and a half, he focused on body shape and pronunciation, was insensitive to word meaning, followed words quickly and recognized words slowly; After six and a half years old, they pay more attention to the meaning and application of characters, but are not sensitive to glyphs and pronunciations, and their literacy speed is slow and difficult.
