How to raise educational motivation of the child? This question is often heard by psychologists on consultations. Parents come with desire ""to force the child to study"". Not all children go to school with pleasure. And the they become more senior, the this problem is more serious. Therefore it is easier to begin to work already at arrival of the child in school. It is necessary to undertake measures that the child was pleasant to study at elementary school.
It is easier to prevent disgust for school and study, than then to struggle with the child. What should be done that the child was pleasant to study? In article it will be a question of the children studying at elementary school. To correct motivation of such children much more simply, than seniors. And influence of parents on the children in teenage age weakens.
When your child just goes to the first class, you should not remember the school difficulties at it. Of course, at school, all had difficulties. But future first grader should not be told about them. You share happy school memories with the child: what objects were pleasant to you what your favourite teachers were how you were on friendly terms in a class? If you with pleasure speak about school, then and the child, most likely, will consider that the school is cool!
When the child swears on the teacher at home, you should not get up at once on his position of charge. The teacher for the child at elementary school has to be an authority, it is a normal stage of development of mentality of the child. Without it in the subsequent it is difficult to keep the healthy relations "pupil teacher" and educational motivation of the child. Therefore at first sort out a situation, make sure authentically (better not only according to your child) that the teacher really is not absolutely right.
You have to give emotional support to the child, but it is better to do it not to the detriment of the authority of the teacher. Support the child in his feelings: he can be angry, upset or offended. But it does not mean at all that the teacher bad. Help the child to sound the emotions words, without rolling down in charges. For example, ""it is really offensive when you very much were going to answer at a board, and you were not asked" "or" "you are angry when you receive a bad note"". Only having experienced negative feelings, it is possible to pass to adequate assessment of the situation and actions on its permission (for example, to correction of mistakes).
There are cases when the teacher really deserves charge. But these situations happen much more less than children speak and think. It is more useful to understand at first the event, to communicate to the teacher without presence of the child. And further already to look for an exit from current situation.
Guarantee of good educational motivation at elementary school, among other things, is an adequate loading. You should not overload the child with sections and circles. The tired child will hardly feel the joy of study. Allow the child to have a rest, you teach him to do correctly it, adjust a day regimen depending on fatigue of the child.
