When to start learning reading at home
Early childhood development is fashionable now.Mothers try to teach their children to read as early as 2-3 years old. However, experts agree that this is too early. At this age, a child already has to learn a lot about the world around him.
How to teach a child to read by syllables quickly and withoutnerves Photo: Getty Up to 3 years old, a child can see a letter in a picture and distinguish it. This gives parents false hope. Putting two pictures with letters together to form a syllable is still an impossible task for a baby. It is believed that the optimal age for learning to read is 4-5 years, but each child is individual, so there is no exact number. Teach your child to read when he already speaks well, does not lisp, pronounces all the letters, does not miss sounds. Also, the child should be able to concentrate on one thing for 15-20 minutes, otherwise the science will not go.
How to cope with the task quickly and correctly
Here are some tips to help you:
- Choose a good study guide. Suitable, for example, is Zhukov's primer.
- Learn the letters in the correct order - first the consonants, then the voiced vowels, and finally the voiceless and hissing consonants.
- At each lesson, repeat the material that you covered in the previous lessons.
- After the letters and sounds, go to the syllables. First, study simple syllables of two letters, where the vowel goes after the consonant, let the child figure it out with an algorithm for constructing them. Devote it to at least a few days.
- Pass to more complex syllables, for example, to those in which the vowel is in front of the consonant.
- After syllables, begin to study the first simple words, for example, ma-ma, ra-ma, mo-lo-ko, etc.
- Watch your pronunciation from the very beginning.Don't memorize words by singing. For example, children often recite the popular phrase from the ABC book "ma-ma-my-la-ra-mu" in one breath. Sometimes they even try to read the entire paragraph in one breath. Control the pauses between words and between sentences.
- Conduct classes playfully and without nerves. Do not shout at the kid if he will often make mistakes and remember the information too slowly.
If you strictly follow all the rules and do itregularly, the child will learn to read in 1.5-2 months. Create an atmosphere at home in which your baby will love books. Read yourself - this way you will set a good example for the child. In families where parents themselves do not read, children are not very interested in books either. Looking at you, he will also want to learn to read.
