Actually, think about it, there are many more meaningful things to do. What grade are you in, so that we can make a more targeted analysis.
I want to share this report with you. Very good.
How to make children spend a meaningful summer vacation?
Today I will talk about three parts:
1, teach children to summarize
2. How can parents help their children make a summer vacation plan that suits them? And how to implement it, matters needing attention, etc.
In this summer vacation, what should students and parents pay attention to in the face of several key periods of children's further education? (These critical periods include from kindergarten to primary school, from primary school to junior high school, from junior high school to senior high school, and from senior high school to university, especially for: What should children do after the senior high school entrance examination? What do children do after the college entrance examination?
I will give some advice to parents and children according to my own experience and lessons in guiding children at different growth stages and my experience in volunteering for family education guidance on the ground and online in my spare time, okay?
First of all, summarize the gains and losses of this semester:
The importance of summary:
1, adult: engaged in scientific research, with scientific research reports; Engage in projects and have a project summary; After a stage, there is a stage summary; At the end of the year, there are reviews of workers and cadres, which is actually a summary. You can imagine how important it is to summarize.
2. Do our children need to summarize? What role does the child play in the summary?
The benefits summarized by children are summarized in six words: sober, perfect and improved. By summing up, we can carefully analyze ourselves from different aspects, find out the shortcomings, and achieve the purpose of knowing ourselves, perfecting ourselves, surpassing ourselves, finding the gap in the summary, finding confidence in the summary and improving ourselves in the summary.
Learning knowledge has chapters and sections. After learning a book, there is a summary of knowledge. After a semester, of course, there must be a semester summary! In addition to summing up knowledge, my children encounter major events, such as participating in various competitions and participating in large-scale activities. Since her daughter entered high school, she has summarized her thoughts, business (study) and life every month, and analyzed and summarized her examination results after the mid-term and final exams, especially after each semester. All the above summary, if the problem is simple, then simply summarize it. If you think about it carefully, the problem is clear and there is no need to write it out; Sometimes it takes careful thinking to figure out the problem, so write a simple outline. If it is a comprehensive summary, a detailed written summary is needed. Children's summaries are sometimes chatted with parents, sometimes with sons and sisters, and most of the time, the children write them themselves and show them to their parents. This is actually a way of communication.
This is me guiding my children to make a summary. Where do you sum up?
Let me talk about how to make a summary. On the first day of last summer vacation, in order to strengthen the communication between my son and my classmates, I asked my son to make a batch of invitations and invited his good friends to my home. As a result, a dozen children came. The first thing I do for them is to make a semester summary, and every student will summarize the success or failure of this semester. Let me give my children some ideas to sum up: for example, are you satisfied with your performance in one semester? What is your proudest and most successful thing? What do you think is the reason for your success? What is your most frustrating and unsuccessful thing? What do you think is the reason for the failure? Where do you want to work in the future? What measures do you want to take to achieve your goal? Children think according to my questions, first make a summary orally at the party, and then make a detailed summary in writing. Take a party to sum up, the effect is very good! Every child will say what he really thinks. With my encouragement, there may be an atmosphere in which he wants to express his true feelings. Some children tell secrets that have been hidden for a long time, such as quietly taking home money to play games in internet cafes, which delays learning; When making money from stock trading, I didn't put my mind on my study; I have a problem with a person, and my unhappy mood affects my study; I like people who are always absent-minded in class and so on. It is the confession of the child's heart, and even when it comes to his own sadness, he shed tears of regret! Our parents usually can't hear these voices! I got two inspirations from this practice: First, children are willing to express their thoughts to release their inner space and find lessons of success and failure, but sometimes they dare not tell the truth because of their parents and teachers. As a volunteer counselor, my children regard me as a friend. When I heard him say that he would take money to play games in Internet cafes, I reached out and scraped his nose. Action is punishment, but actually caressing. My preaching is really acceptable to children. If our parents hear that their children spend money to play online games, most parents will be furious! Will the child dare to tell you about his mental journey in the future? Therefore, when summing up with children, parents should keep a normal heart and understand their children's faults. Children are willing to talk to you, which shows that they have realized their mistakes. The second revelation is that "group parenting" has more advantages than "single parenting" (I will talk about it later when I participate in social practice activities). A group of children are together, and their peers are summing up, inspiring each other, correcting each other, supervising each other and encouraging each other. The effect is more powerful than the summary of a single child! Our parents can organize several children in the same class to form a study group and sum up together. Both study and activities are good.
Second, how to make a summer vacation plan that suits you?
1, summer vacation positioning: first of all, give yourself a positioning. What kind of summer vacation do I want? How to have a meaningful and different summer vacation! My son's slogan is: Have a full, happy and unique summer vacation! Putting forward this slogan may be opposed by most children. The children's reaction is: I finally look forward to the summer vacation. You should have fun and study until you have had enough. Children have this idea, mainly because our parents give their children a fixed mindset. In order to improve their study, they think that learning is painful. Why not play with it? Learn through play, play through school, and have a meaningful summer vacation.
2, summer vacation plan (content):
First of all, we should combine the requirements of the school: a letter to parents, or a letter to parents, and complete the tasks assigned by the school according to the requirements of the school. For example: watching traditional educational films; Ask to write a short essay; Participate in some community public welfare activities; Write handwritten newspaper, when nursing school, etc.
Combine the characteristics of each child: make your own unique summer vacation plan;
Learning: for children whose academic performance is not particularly good and who lack knowledge, I suggest arranging to review this link and read the chapters that they don't understand again; Sort out the wrong problem sets (papers, homework) and key problem sets, and grasp the key points, difficulties and omissions. Review which chapters should be made clear. Especially in the courses of mathematics and physics, if you don't understand the old knowledge, you will never learn new knowledge. The most effective learning method of science is to push forward bit by bit like digging a ditch, so as to thoroughly and solidly learn knowledge and lay a solid foundation for later learning. Last summer vacation, a junior high school student I tutored got 150 in math, but only got 30-40. She just used a summer vacation to improve her math score to about 90 points. For children with good academic performance and solid knowledge, preview the new books for next semester. Learning to preview is actually a way to cultivate autonomous learning. The son previews all the new books (the first step of the three-step preview method is to preview all the new books during the holidays; The second step is to preview the content of the next day's class; The third step is to preview two minutes before class, especially math and physics. What is the goal of preview? Understand the general content of the book, find out the key and difficult chapters and mark them. The goal of my son's preview of the new book is to read it from beginning to end, mark the key points and difficulties of the whole new book, and then do exercises.
Cultivation of good study habits: preview and review are two important links in summer vacation. The quality of preview directly affects children's academic performance and is also the main method to cultivate children's learning ability. Especially for junior and senior high school children, if they don't cultivate self-study ability and self-study, their learning will be very painful, because there are many courses, which are difficult and involve a wide range. If you just listen to the teacher with a pair of ears, your learning efficiency is not high. Mastering the effective time of review, according to Ebbinghaus forgetting curve, the process of forgetting is fast first and then slow. From the law of forgetting process, we should get enlightenment: in order to obtain good memory effect, we should review in time. If you don't review in time, a lot of content will soon be forgotten, and reviewing again will get twice the result with half the effort. My son always recalls the contents of the class two minutes after class. He said it was better than reviewing for two hours in the evening. When studying by yourself, try to review for one day, consolidate for two days and forget less on the third day.
Life: What abilities are you going to exercise this summer vacation?
In terms of self-care, I learned to do my own laundry. Since junior high school, my daughter has taken care of herself, including washing all her clothes, buying school supplies and daily necessities she needs, and buying clothes, shoes and socks she likes. Now in college, she has a strong ability to live independently. She is the only student in the dormitory who doesn't have to wash clothes, and she won't take sheets and quilts home for her parents to wash. It is common for some college students to pack dirty clothes, hide quilts and go home. The exercise of these abilities is to use every holiday to start with small things and exercise item by item, and parents can guide them. This summer vacation, I'm going to hand over my family expenses to my two children, so that they can cook, buy food, pay daily expenses and exercise their living ability together. Because my daughter is likely to study abroad next year, and this summer vacation is a preview to cultivate her living ability. For children in lower grades, we should also contract several household chores, list some chores that we can do, and insist on doing them well.
Healthy habits: Summer vacation is a good time to cultivate habits. 2 1 day can cultivate a good habit. Two months can form good habits; This will benefit children for life! Tidy up your room and desk; Brush your teeth, wash your face and take a bath every day. Pack your clothes, shoes and socks, put things in a fixed position and so on. Everyone needs to cultivate a good habit.
Other ability goals: learn special skills (dance, painting, various musical instruments), what level to reach, and give yourself a goal. Before the second day of junior high school, my son participated in chess competitions at all levels every summer vacation. With these contents in the summer vacation, we must make a good plan and consider the daily schedule. Break through the key points and strive for a good result. Some students said that I don't take part in any competitions and I don't have any special skills. How can I exercise my ability? Can we let ourselves do something, let you do what mom and dad used to do, such as shopping. For the first time, my son went to the market to buy food independently, without bargaining or picking the quality of the food. He followed an aunt and observed how she bargained with the vegetable vendor. Aunt negotiated the price, and he said, Uncle, I also bought two Jin. Then it depends on what aunt chooses and what he chooses. Just buy food in the future. If the child is not allowed to go out, he will never dare to buy food again. It is also a good way to exercise children's ability to live independently by letting them buy books and spend some time with relatives alone.
The above is what to arrange for the summer vacation. Let's review: 1 First of all, we should combine the requirements of the school: according to the requirements of the school, complete the tasks assigned by the school. 2. Combine the characteristics of each child: make your own unique summer vacation plan: study: which children must review old textbooks and which children can preview new textbooks in advance. How to preview new textbooks and what goals to achieve; How to develop good study habits? Life: What abilities are you going to exercise this summer vacation? Self-care ability; Cultivation of hygienic habits; Other ability goals: learn what you want to achieve, concentrate, make breakthroughs, and strive for good results; Finish some things independently and exercise your communication skills.
With the ideal goal and rich and meaningful content arrangement, if you don't take action, it will be a dead letter! Then, I want to say another table:

Arrange the study contents and activities arranged in the summer vacation into the weekly (daily) schedule, post them on the wall, tick them when you finish the task, and then analyze the reasons after you can't finish the task. Is the plan inappropriate or is there any other interference? Or are you lazy? You can also score yourself according to your own completion. Parents give their children appropriate rewards, especially for children, which is very driving. Not only children like rewards, but I also like rewards. When I study, if I finish a content or a unit, I often give myself a reward, a fruit, eat a handful of melon seeds, or listen to a piece of music, or do something I like.
If our children have rich and concrete things to do in the summer vacation; Guaranteed daily time; With parents' incentive mechanism; Will our children be at a loss?
Many parents complain that their children play games online all day, watch TV all day and sleep all day. It is useless for parents to argue over and over again. They are just anxious. In fact, parents did not guide their children from an early age, taught them to plan time and plan specific things to do! As the saying goes: much ado about nothing, children do nothing, no play!
Pay attention to three points when planning:
Time can be easier than during school. Get up late and go to bed early. Because, with the arrangement of school teaching tasks, students are seriously short of sleep, and summer vacation is a good time to catch up on sleep. It is necessary to set aside time for children to play. Only by combining play, learning and playing is an effective arrangement for children's summer vacation. Judging from my son's daily running schedule, I have a clear rest time, and I also set aside time to play games for myself. And the rest time is twice as much as during school, so go to bed early. Usually, I have to study for 8 hours in school, only 4-6 hours in summer vacation, and other time is used to arrange things other than study. Including ability training and playing games. One day at noon, I came home from work and saw my son playing games. He said confidently: "This is the legal time to play games!" ! I think his schedule is really the "legal" time to play games. Since it is "legal", there is no need to avoid parents.
Parents' understanding of children playing games: Speaking of games, I also talk about my views. Some parents asked me: Do your children play games? Do you let children play games? The answers are all yes. My son has been studying and playing games on the computer since he was 3 years old. Now almost everyone in my family has a computer as an advanced learning tool. On the issue of games, I practice principle education. When children have completed their study tasks and housework for a week and made no big mistakes, they can play computer games every Friday night. You can also play for a while after you finish your homework on the weekend. Today is a holiday, so we have "legal" time to play games. Don't delay study, rest and housework, you can play. Playing games can only play small games and intellectual games. You can't play large-scale games in which several people are partners, violent killing games with bloody scenes, and games with pornographic pictures. It is important for parents to pay attention to the content of the games their children play. Playing computer games is not allowed at ordinary times. Now is the information age, the computer age. Besides studying, most of the topics that children communicate together are wonderful games. If your children don't play games, they won't have friends. Even if they do, they won't have the same topic. They will gradually alienate each other, which will make them feel inferior. Children will think like this: they think that their grades are not good, their parents don't let them play, and they think that their parents don't love themselves, so they don't let them play. Last summer vacation, many parents told me: children playing games will affect their studies, and they are afraid that their children will get worse. They should cancel broadband and take shielding measures; Children think that surfing the Internet can help them learn knowledge, have fun and make friends. They strongly demand surfing the Internet, and even secretly go to Internet cafes outside. Parents and children have opposing views, so I organized a family debate: draw lots to decide the pros and cons. The debate is: the advantages and disadvantages of home internet access. Through the debate, children can not only understand the advantages and disadvantages of family surfing the Internet, but also understand that their parents' worries are not unreasonable. There is such a documentary article on my blog. Later, near the end of the summer vacation, I invited the parents of the students who participated in the debate to my home for discussion. I played the recording of the debate to my parents. They were very moved. They finally understood their children's desire to surf the Internet and realized that the guidance of parents is the most important thing, not by shielding, but by persuasion. What parents should do is to teach their children how to surf the internet, guide them to enhance their ability to distinguish right from wrong, resist temptation and screen useful information, and make good use of the computer as a double-edged sword.
4. Key breakthrough projects in summer vacation:
For example, learn from children with "short boards" and fill in the short boards. The capacity of a barrel depends on the shortest board. Replace the short board with a long board, and the capacity of the barrel will increase. Children should get a total score in the college entrance examination. If there are lame subjects, it will definitely affect the total score. Making up the lame subjects is the most effective way to improve the total score. Last summer vacation, a junior high school student I tutored got 150 in math, but only got 30-40. I almost lost confidence in my study. I encouraged her to start over. As a result, she used a summer vacation to make up the math in the first grade of primary school, and learned about 12 points every day. I really admire this student's courage and perseverance, and now he can get 70% to 80% in mathematics. If children have no time to study because of the tight curriculum, then this summer vacation is the best time to study. I suggest that children under grade two should read more books at ordinary times. Physical chemistry is added after the second grade to deepen the knowledge difficulty of other subjects. Children are under great pressure to study and have little time to read extracurricular books. It is necessary to use this summer vacation to read extracurricular books. Today's summer vacation, my family is going to compete with the children to study; Buy two books, one for parents and one for children, read books together, share the contents of the books with each other, and then exchange books. Last summer vacation, I volunteered to give family composition counseling to more than a dozen children. One of the projects is to lead the children to take part in a reading contest and tell them that I will hold an exhibition after the summer vacation. The items on display include: summer composition collections made by everyone, books read, excerpts, reading experiences and feelings. I want to invite the headmaster, school teachers, some parents and some classmates to visit. With this purpose, children's reading enthusiasm will come up. Every time in class, let the children share the joy of reading, chat with each other about the contents of the book, and stimulate other children's desire to read that book. Then exchange books with each other. "You can't read books unless you borrow them." Last week, Teacher Zhang Shen said: Borrowed books are more interesting, you will cherish them more and read faster. After the summer vacation, the students who read the most books read more than 20 books, and the few students also read 7 books, about 654.38+00,000 words. It seems that such reading activities are very effective. I asked my children to carefully revise their compositions and diaries written every summer vacation and compile them into a composition collection, which became their first book! Children design their own covers, write their own prefaces, postscript, typewriter compositions, edit their own illustrations, and finally print and bind them into a book. Choose a beautiful topic for your composition in triplicate, one for me, one for the school Chinese teacher and one for yourself. What a sense of accomplishment This greatly stimulated children's desire to write. What our parents should do is to encourage: praise children for their good writing; Driver: It is best for parents to write, and I will write with them when children write, so that children can write more vigorously! Create opportunities for children: parents can carry out a series of activities; Lead children to walk on foot for hard exercise; Picnic; Tourism; Participating in social practice and so on are all materials for children's writing. There was a winter vacation one year, and the Spring Festival was coming soon. I took my son to the park to pick up garbage. In the morning, we picked up six bags of garbage and sent them to the garbage room. As a result, my son wrote a good article, and I led the children on foot. After I come back, I want to write a sentiment article. Give appropriate help to children: For children in lower grades, parents can help with revision, typing, typesetting, editing, printing and binding. My son already has five such compositions. Every book is the footprint of a child's growth, which is commendable!
Practice calligraphy; Speech and eloquence, etc.
An important content of summer vacation should be: use the opportunity of summer vacation to experience hardship and participate in social practice;
It is necessary for the only child to have a proper hardship experience and exercise his will and endurance. Why are children born in happiness not happy now? Many children are weak-willed, have no fighting spirit, can't eat any bitterness, are afraid of hardship and fatigue, and have no motivation to learn? I think the main reason is that children enjoy too many comfortable and comfortable environments, have no sense of crisis and can't experience real pain and fatigue. If we can experience the living environment and working environment of farmers through labor training, why do people of different classes have different life paths? Teacher Chen Xinmin, an expert in quality education in the oil field, set up a labor training base in Yimeng Mountain area, sending those children who have no motivation to learn, unclear goals and no thoughts about the future to the farmhouse there, where they can eat, live and work with farmers, so that children can experience what real happiness is. What is bitterness? What is sweet? Let the children think about the consequences of being comfortable now. What's the difference between survival and life? How can we change our destiny? After a period of labor, most children's concepts and attitudes have changed, and some have undergone earth-shaking changes, completely changing the state of passive learning, thus changing their lives! Some children came back and concluded that learning now is really learning by themselves, not fooling their parents. If you don't want to study, you think of the scene of working in the countryside and the hard life of farmers. This has a great influence on children. When my children were very young, I took them to the nearby rural farmers' homes to harvest food with them. Lead children to observe the hardships of construction workers and cleaning workers, so as to cherish our current learning conditions, stimulate children to study hard, and change backward production tools when they grow up for the benefit of everyone. In order to exercise children's spirit of hardship, when my son was 6 years old, my husband and I took him on a 30-kilometer hike in the hot summer. In the cold winter, our family of four walked more than 20 kilometers; Last summer vacation, he led more than a dozen students to walk 10 kilometers. Good exercise of children's willpower, physical endurance, but also let children experience the joy of overcoming difficulties and self-defeating! My daughter works as a newsboy (selling wholesale newspapers) in the summer vacation of the second day of junior high school. After two days of sunshine, rain and high temperature, she earned 1 1 yuan. After such exercise, she understood that she could no longer support her family by selling newspapers. I should study hard and find a better job in the future. She cherishes every penny now, and has never eaten KFC since then, saying that she can't buy a hamburger after two days of hard work! Of course, there is no need for all our children to be newsboys. Children can also visit workers' labor scenes in their parents' units, experience their parents' labor, work as waiters in the canteen, practice in their parents' posts and help their parents. It's all good exercise opportunities.
Parents can also organize several families, and parents and children can participate in activities together. Last summer vacation, my colleague organized several parents and children to visit the Shanghai World Expo. After coming back, they also had a summary and a party. The children gave speeches, wrote essays and won prizes, and invited me to be the instructor to participate in the essay writing. These methods are all very good, and this is the advantage of "group rearing". Some of them are in charge of eating, studying and activities. Parents can follow suit.
Attention should be paid here: ① Parents should participate, especially in safety issues. I took my children out twice. I am a counselor, and my husband is a security officer and photographer for children. ② The preparation work before departure, so that children can participate, the reason why children are unwilling to go out: Parents arrange their children's activities according to their parents' intentions, and children find it boring. If children are allowed to design their own entertainment plans, places and ways and play with friends, do you think children are still willing to go out to play? ③ Preparation: Including materials: suitable sportswear, sports shoes, necessary items, money, food and water. Anticipate possible problems, such as heatstroke, fatigue and weak will. Teach children to learn to ask for help and so on. Psychological preparation: Our slogan is: Happiness, Experience, Challenge and Transcendence! (4) To sum up after coming back, this activity, from organization to participation, what has been successful and what has failed, and what should be paid attention to in the future, is crucial. It is to teach children to accumulate experience, learn lessons and do things better and better in the future. I wrote more than 400 thousand words of children's growth notes, which recorded many such lessons: what are the reasons for the success or failure of a thing, and what are the gains? What other improvements are there? What did you get from it?
