Parent-child self-study English reference book: Mama Xiong's classic English picture book 10 1+

The first time I got to know mother bear was in Home in a Beautiful Place: Little Bear Tribe.

The first time I got to know mother bear was in Home in a Beautiful Place: Little Bear Tribe. Mother Bear's warm words truly recorded her interaction with three bears. The article conveys its own educational philosophy-an educational method that respects children, appreciates their advantages and follows the trend. Mother Xiong has published many books. This time, I want to share her experience of leading children to read and learning English by herself through picture books. I am an English teacher myself and have two little babies. It shouldn't be difficult to take children to read English at home. However, judging from the messages I received from parents at the first teaching point, many parents worry that their English ability is not enough to lead their children to learn English, and they will send their children to bilingual kindergartens and cram schools when they are young, in order to lay a good foundation in English and keep their children's English at the starting point. However, when the tide of "abandoning Britain" strikes at the age of ten, it is often the children who "win at the starting point" who give up and move on. Why is this happening? These children don't know why they want to learn English The expectation and vanity of adults make them think that English is a tool to show off from an early age. However, these children have good listening and speaking skills and are confident in their English, but their reading and writing skills are not at the corresponding level. Relying on my fluent English, I often get distracted in class and complain that textbooks are too easy! If parents know that the consequences of learning English early are serious pride, will they regret spending a lot of money to make their children go in the opposite direction? I'm not saying that it's not good to learn English early, but that children's learning motivation is very important, and it's very important to let children have a sincere interest in English. However, such a small child, how do they know what they want? At this time, we (parents) who sow the seeds are the soul figures. Picture books are a good medium. A lot of knowledge, through picture books, will soften the seriousness of knowledge itself and bring us closer. Through the rich pictures in the picture book, readers can immediately understand the meaning. A good picture book will have a fascinating story, which will make the language "three days around the beam" and it is not easy to forget. More importantly, the fun brought by picture books is priceless. It is so easy to get close to, attracting readers of all sizes to take the initiative to play with it, and it is not boring to read it repeatedly. Learning English through English picture books is as natural and catchy as learning your mother tongue from daily life. Then why should children learn letters, recite words and understand grammar in a standard way? When you learn your mother tongue for the first time, will you learn it in order from "ㄅピㄇ"? Can you recite words? Can you analyze sentence structure? Mama Xiong's 10 1 graded picture book only provides parents with a book selection scheme. Of course, not all parents can tell English stories to their children as freely and confidently as I do. Here, in every picture book scheme, Mama Xiong provides a youtube link, which is a reading version of the picture book-either recorded by foreigners themselves or read by foreigners themselves. These free resources have broken the limitation of parents' English ability and turned every picture book into an audio book! However, Mama Xiong also suggested that not only parents and children should listen together, but parents should learn by themselves first, and then read aloud to their children through these free audio resources. After all, parents' voices can make children listen to stories more attentively, and I also think that the temperature of parents' voices is definitely higher than that of speakers, which will deeply plant children's memories and accompany them to grow up. In addition to these free resources, Mama Xiong also provides some feasible references for parent-child expansion activities at home, such as telling children the difference between "stealing" and "taking" after watching "This is not my hat" and taking children to the fish market to know the fish they often eat; After watching the baby owl, take the children to learn about other Nocturnal Animals, and talk about the safety issues that should be paid attention to when parents are not around. After reading "Little Mouse" and "Red-/",take the children to pick strawberries and cut fruits. These activities are different from the theme activities in the classroom, but focus on parent-child interaction and "reader response", emphasizing the depth of the theme and practical experience, rather than English exploration and practice. English has become a tool here, a process of gaining experience rather than an end. This is also what I neglected as an English teacher. Because of occupational diseases, I often unconsciously design some word extension activities to play English with my children. It seems that I am concerned with the breadth of the theme rather than the depth. In fact, there are many in-depth activities that I can experience at home! ▼ Title, general idea, features, reading resources, parent-child development activities, and detailed arrangements.

In addition, for children to learn English, I personally think that we should not overemphasize the importance of English and ignore the mother tongue. On the contrary, Chinese is our root. In the future, children's language ability is closely related to various disciplines. If they can't understand math problems, how can they solve them? Many students fail because they can't read the instructions, not the question. Chinese is a sharp weapon leading to all kinds of knowledge halls, so we must lay a good foundation when children are young. ? I didn't make up lessons in the process of learning English myself, but I taught myself with great interest. In middle schools in China, there are English classes, but the content of self-study is always twice as much as that stipulated by the school. As long as people listen to everyone speak English, I also listen to Ivy to analyze English, and write an English diary every day and send it to the English teacher for correction. At the beginning, my brain learned English through the traditional Chinese-English translation method. I think my English ability is not bad. Therefore, I have a good foundation in Chinese and learn English quickly. Those children who have poor English ability in school actually have poor Chinese ability. ? Also, I don't want a child's "comfortable language" to be English, because in communication, if he knows English and doesn't know Chinese, it is like a new ethnic group, and he can't understand what people around him are saying, and that feeling is very uneasy. When you want to express your needs, you can't find a suitable corpus, but it will make you more anxious, cry more easily and lose your temper more easily. Besides, Chinese is actually much more difficult than English! Efforts to improve Chinese ability, in other words, flexible use, will be very helpful to children in the future. ? So my two children mainly read Chinese picture books, supplemented by English picture books. This idea that "mother tongue is the king of learning" coincides with mother bear's idea. Another great advantage of this book is that you don't have to buy every book. After listening to the free audio resources on the Internet, if you have any ideas, buy them further. You just like 1/3 the frustration of not buying a set of books at all. I recommend it to everyone! This book is dedicated to: 1 Parents who want to read English picture books but are not confident about pronunciation II. Parents who want to buy English picture books but don't know where to start? Parents who want their children to teach themselves English at home. Parents who don't want to spend a lot of money and are afraid of choosing the wrong English book 5. Parents and children who simply want to tell stories and learn English! ? Usage and suggestion of mother bear: 1. It is suggested that children over three years old can enjoy picture books with their parents and listen to pronunciation online. 2. It is not recommended that children under three years old use network audio and video excessively. What I do is to listen to stories online by myself, then read them out loud, record them with MP3 or mobile phone, and listen to them to children from time to time. If possible, please try to read and record by parents, because according to research, children listen to their parents' voices to understand stories, and they are the most attentive! 4. If parents really can't read aloud to their children, they can also use MP3 to record stories online and use them as self-study materials at home, but please pay attention to intellectual property rights and scope of use. 5. Parent-child reading is the most encouraging practice in this book: dare to use language, not afraid of nonstandard pronunciation. I met many excellent immigrants in America, such as Indians and Singaporeans. Their English pronunciation may not be clear, but they dare to speak, speak confidently and know a lot. Parents in Taiwan Province Province, in fact, English is not bad. They really advise everyone: Dare to read aloud with children, dare to learn English with children, and beautiful pronunciation is not the most important issue. Really learning words and usage, and being brave in using foreign languages, is really useful learning! "This article is the author's view on cooperative innovation, not his position."
