How to improve children's attention

How to improve children's attention and make their babies smarter and smarter? Children's world is clear and gentle, and their healthy growth cannot be separated from their parents' patient teaching. Parents should seize every opportunity to educate their children well. Let me share how to improve children's attention.

How to improve children's attention 1 1, and the time to pay attention to children.

Because most families are now a child, the child has become the "viewpoint" of many adults, such as parents, grandparents and so on, and has become the object of attention. The child's every move has attracted much attention. What children pay attention to, what adults pay attention to, and provide it as soon as possible. For example, if the child is immersed in a page-turning with great interest, the mother will immediately go over and guide him: "Baby, turn the page like this"; Or praise with joy: "Baby, you are so good today. Are you studying?" ! Look, what is this? "... the result is often that the mother is cheerful and the child is impatient. In fact, children have their own unique way of observing and exploring the world. Even before he was 3 years old, he needed his own space. Who knows what he's thinking, discovering and groping for when he turns over the books? As an adult, you should leave your child time and space alone, otherwise you will interrupt the child's rare intentional attention and you will become a distracting factor. Over time, he is really a "three-minute fever"

2. Give children a quiet and tidy learning environment.

Don't put anything on the child's desk except stationery and books, so as not to distract him; It is best to lock drawers and cabinets so that children can open and clean drawers at any time without finishing their homework; In front of the desk, there should be nothing to attract children's attention except maps, formulas and pinyin forms related to learning. A girl shouldn't put a mirror on her desk, which will give her time to look at herself or feel sorry for herself. Children should not be allowed to do their homework while watching TV.

3. Ask children to finish their homework within the specified time.

If there are too many homework, you can finish it in stages. Some parents "stand guard" because their children are not focused enough. This is not a long-term effective way because it will make children dependent. In addition, children's attention and emotions have a great relationship, and parents should create a peaceful, peaceful and warm learning environment. Noisy environment, messy house and abnormal family life will seriously affect children's attention. At the same time, parents should understand that whether they can concentrate is also related to their children's age. The research shows that the time of attention stability of children aged 5~ 10 is 20 minutes, that of children aged 10~ 12 is 25 minutes and that of children aged 12 is 30 minutes. Therefore, it is almost impossible for a child of 10 to sit there for 60 minutes and concentrate on finishing his homework.

4. Let children concentrate on one thing within a certain period of time.

I often hear some parents say, "My children are inefficient and slow in doing homework, so they play while writing." Parents should pay attention to cultivating their children's ability to do one thing well in a certain period of time. Parents should help them arrange their homework. After finishing an assignment, they can be allowed to have a rest so as not to make the children too tired. Some parents feel that their children are slow to respond, don't let their children rest, and nag endlessly, which makes their children have resistance and the effect is not good.

Don't always repeat what you said to your children.

Some parents don't trust their children, and they always have to say one thing several times, so that children can get used to it after listening to it several times. The teacher only talks once, but it seems that he can't hear or hear clearly. In this way, children often can't understand what the teacher says well, can't comply with the teacher's requirements, and naturally can't get good academic results. Parents only tell their children things once, which is a way to cultivate their attention.

6. Cultivate children to be good at "listening"

Listening is an important source for people to acquire information and enrich their knowledge. Listening is very important for learning, because most teachers impart knowledge to learning in the form of explanations. Parents can train their children's attention by listening. For example, parents can let their children listen to music and novels, and encourage them to describe what they have heard in their own words, thus cultivating the good habit of listening attentively.

How to improve children's attention II. Causes of children's distraction

First, the interference of irrelevant stimuli.

Children's attention is mainly unintentional and easily attracted by new, changing or strong stimuli. In addition, their attention stability is low and they are easily influenced by irrelevant stimuli. For example, the layout of the activity room is too complicated, the environment is too noisy, and even the teachers' clothes are too weird, which may affect children's attention and make them unable to concentrate on the objects they should pay attention to. Experiments show that when children choose their own games, it is generally appropriate to provide four or five different games. Putting forward too many games makes it difficult for children to choose and concentrate on playing well.

Second, fatigue.

The child's nervous system function is not fully developed. If they are in a state of tension or engaged in monotonous activities for a long time, they will have fatigue and appear "protective inhibition". At first, they will be listless, and then their attention will start to be distracted. Therefore, children's teaching activities should pay attention to dynamic and static collocation, the time should not be too long, the content and methods should be vivid and changeable, which can arouse children's interest and prevent fatigue and distraction.

Third, the purpose of teachers is not clear.

Sometimes the teacher's requirements for children are not specific, or the purpose of activities cannot be understood by children, which is also the reason for children's distraction. Children often look around because they don't know what they should do, their attention is shaken, and they can't actively engage in activities.

Fourth, poor attention transfer ability.

Children's attention transfer quality has not been fully developed, so they are not good at actively mobilizing their attention as required. For example, after listening to an interesting story, children may be influenced by some vivid content for a long time, and it is difficult to quickly shift their attention to new activities. Therefore, when they engage in new activities, they tend to "remember" their previous activities, resulting in the phenomenon of distraction.
