Home teaching in early childhood

What are the essential points for letting a child in early childhood study at home?Recently, an increasing number of households are studying by purchasing a commercially available practicing method at home in preparation for entering elementary school. Then, how do you work to study at home efficiently and take root? I will explain the points and NG(not good) items that you should keep in mind about home study for young children.When do you start studying at home?When should your child's study habits start? I think many people are worried. I think it varies depending on the child, but if you get used to "studying" before entering elementary school, things may go smoothly after you go to elementary school. From the time when my child entered kindergarten and calm down, when I was having conversations every day, I invited him to say, "I'm in elementary school soon," "Would you like to start practicing pencils?" If you are interested in it, you may start your habit little by little. If you're not interested at all, wait for a while and call out again.How to get used to home teachingo how do you actually go about studying? After learning the basics of how to hold a pencil and the posture when writing letters, start by tracing simple lines and circles for a few minutes. I think it's a good idea to gradually increase your study time as if you were gradually developing your child's level, motivation, concentration and patience while watching the situation.Before entering elementary school, the content of her study is important, but it is just as important to go to the desk as training to acquire the "study habit itself". For that reason, I set the study time so that it will be more fun to go to the desk than to do something that is too difficult, and to increase motivation. The point of smooth habituation is to praise a lot and develop good points, and when you feel that your concentration is about to be interrupted, proceed while calling out so that you do not lose consciousness.Ultimately, I think it is enough to be able to concentrate and study for about 15 to 20 minutes before entering elementary school. It's a good idea to start with a few minutes, gradually increase the time and content you do, and slowly adjust to suit your child to prepare for elementary school admission.NG response that makes children lose motivationScolding when your kid makes a mistake or can't write wellNever be careful or scold when your child is wrong or can't write well. Strictly pointing out mistakes can be daunting and discouraging for children. For example, when a child cannot write well, it is a good idea to bring it to a conversation that sympathizes with the child's mistake, such as "Mom always made a mistake when writing this character, isn't it difficult?" And please encourage me, "I can write better next time."Forcibly continue for a long timeLet's set a time and work on it. It is said that a child about 5 years old can concentrate for 2 to 3 minutes. Therefore, it is a good idea to start with about 10 minutes and gradually increase the time to work on the drill. As a parent, you may want to get it done until the planned page is over. However, please be aware that if you force yourself from this time on, you will have the image of "learning = painful things". And when your child is distracted by something else and feels restless, close the drill and stop. If you continue to force yourself forever, you will have a habit of not concentrating on learning.The important thing is to make learning feel funThe most important thing in home study for young children is to make them feel "fun". Try not to have the image that learning is painful and painful. For that purpose, don't force yourself, and even if you make a mistake or can't write a little well, please follow me without scolding.
