It is necessary not just to put letters in words, and words - in offers, but also to understand sense, to draw an image in own head. To the person, including it is difficult to the child who got used to see already ready images on the screen to create something special in the head. And if in family it is accepted to spend leisure-time behind viewing telecasts or having buried in the smartphone, then it is not necessary to expect from the child of love for reading. And "to force to fall in love with a phrase" it is better to forget once and for all.
Whether there is a sense to force the child to read
Many skilled parents easily can give to beginners in this case hundreds of advice, from a row "… will not read yet and will not retell And, will not receive B". Whether it is possible to develop in such a way interest in reading at the child? No! It will cause boomerang effect. First, under threat to receive a whip or not to receive gingerbread, the child though will read, and will retell, but will not receive any sincere response. He will not like sympathy or antipathy for heroes, will not try to put himself on their place, will not acquire a work message. That is from reading "under pressure" it is more harm, than advantage.
How to develop interest in reading at the child
If to analyze works of various psychologists and teachers on this subject, then it will become clear that to force the child it is not necessary to read. But it is possible to carry away him reading. Advice which will help to make it are given below:
1. To fall in love to read books. To force the child to read the book when itself for days on end you watch TV − silly. It is necessary to begin always with itself as children are taught not by(with) the words of parents, but their acts. If the child does not see how his parents derive pleasure from reading, then and itself will not become the bibliophile. At the same time important not only to read to adults, but also to discuss read with each other and with children.
2. To read aloud. Many parents read to little children of the fairy tale before going to bed. But when they reach that age when can independently fill up, reading aloud, usually, stops. Therefore it is recommended or to continue it to do, or to arrange family readings. For example, dad can read aloud to mom the fairy tale, and the child just is nearby. If the fairy tale interests him, then he will listen, and then, perhaps, will take part in its discussion. This way is also good the fact that it will allow to understand taste of the child.
3. To create the book about the child. It is curious to children to know that adults think of them. And the book about the child can not only satisfy curiosity, but also involve the child in reading. For example, it is possible to photograph the child in the course of any occupation, to describe the events, to unpack and hang up on a foreground. It will also be one of pages in the book. The book can gradually involve the child in writing about itself. Studying the letter, the child will study and read.
4. To draw illustrations. If the child still small, then drawing of illustrations to the read books − excellent occupation. It not only gives the chance to discuss with the child that to it most of all was pleasant and remembered, but also to draw additional attention and love for books.
5. To begin with easy and interesting. Knowing about preferences of the child, books should be offered which will be interesting to him. Let it will be adventures, a fantasy or stories about animals. Even the book according to the favourite animated film can cause desire to read it in the child. 6. Not to worry if the child does not read the books entering the list of references for the summer. It is possible to strike safely off the list those works which will not interest the child. Reading is a duty and not work, and process which brings pleasure. Often teachers enter in the list of references for summer of the work, suitable children of more advanced age. So in the list for the second-grader it is possible to meet "Robinson Crusoe's Adventures" or "Hobbit". These works pass in the 5th class, then the child also will be ready to study them.
It is important to remember that if parents want to carry away the child reading, then it is possible to speak about it only in the context of pleasure and pleasant leisure always. The love for books does not appear in itself, it needs to be formed gradually.
