Is it necessary and why to read before bed?
The pedagogical process of kindergarten includes 3 participants: parent, child and teacher. Often only teachers are involved in the development of children, but this happens due to the fact that parents are pedagogically illiterate. Teachers can conduct the following activities for parents:
- lectures on the use of fiction for children;
- master classes on reading individual works to develop certain skills in children;
- Experience exchange events, exhibitions of children's books, card index of books.
Important! Parents often ask whether they should read to their child before bed. Teachers and psychologists agree that reading is necessary, but not necessary before bed.
Reading literature must be planned. It is necessary to choose those books that are recommended by teachers for a certain age. Reading can start from birth.
You can also find information on how exactly to read the book. Basically the following algorithm is implemented:
- reading the book by parents independently;
- identifying key issues;
- conducting preliminary work with children: characterizing unfamiliar words, explaining difficult moments;
- expressive reading to children and subsequent conversation on the content.
Parents should read to children
First, the parent must determine the purpose of reading a particular book. Even the simplest children's book has a certain meaning. It is better to choose books with pictures that the child can look at and analyze.
A subsequent conversation is also necessary: which hero did you like best and why, whether the hero acted correctly in a given situation, and whether the child would have acted the same as the hero. This contributes to the formation of the ability to evaluate one’s actions and words, and also contributes to the formation of correct, adequate self-esteem.
