1, the first thing to control your attention is to understand your feelings.
It's not easy to concentrate on one thing. We need to control all parts of our body, including eyes, ears, nose, tongue, body, mind and heart. These seven parts involve the basic feelings of our human body, the thoughts of our heads and our inner emotional feelings. So, when we are doing something, are we aware of our feelings and feel our specific feelings? Only when we feel our feelings can we try to improve our attention.
Therefore, to improve children's attention, the first thing to do is to be aware of their feelings.
Generally speaking, helping children realize their sense of distraction depends mainly on our reminders. When we see that children's attention begins to be distracted, we remind them to look at me with their eyes, listen to me with their ears and sit up straight. We remind children not to get a learning result immediately, but to pay attention to their physical feelings and adjust their state.
At school, although the teacher is also imparting knowledge to the children, after discovering that the children are distracted, they will remind the children where to look, look at the blackboard with their eyes, or take out the blackboard brush and knock on the blackboard a few times. These are all through various sensory stimuli to influence children, so that children can turn their attention to the current learning content.
Therefore, the first way to improve children's attention is to learn to consciously remind children of their current state and pay attention to their feelings when they are distracted.
2. Control yourself and learn to persist in doing boring things.
The second method is to find a simple thing that children can do independently, so that children can keep training and practicing every day. Under normal circumstances, a person's concentration and willpower are often stronger. This strong willpower is not innate, but an instinct to turn basic actions into their own actions through continuous training.
It's boring to keep doing an action. Many people often lose their attention in the process of doing it, and often divert their attention because of curiosity, so they can't continue and persist.
Whenever I mention this method, I think of Zhao, a young classmate I met this summer vacation. A 7-year-old boy can help his family roll out more than 500 steamed stuffed bun skins in one morning. His movements are skillful and smooth, and he has no childlike feeling. Because of such a thing, he has been training since he was over 4 years old, which makes his attention highly concentrated now. My academic performance in school is also excellent, and I can play Sanda and piano, so I can be regarded as an all-round primary school student.
Therefore, the method of training children's attention is not complicated, that is, mastering the essence and training decisively.
3. Appropriate encouragement and praise
If children want to make progress and consciously change their behavior, they must realize that they have been praised in the process of doing well, and feel happy in their hearts and spirits. For example, children play a game of wearing beads in kindergarten, and we have similar games at home. For example, mother must wear a needle to mend a small hole in her dress.
At this time, you can ask the children to come and help. "Son, please help your mother put this thread into the pinhole. Mom needs your help. " Let the children feel that we need him, he can help us, the children feel useful and will actively participate in what we ask.
Then, in the process of piercing the needle, the child needs the cooperation of eyes, hands and other bodies. What he can't think of in his mind is to wear money wholeheartedly. When the child completes this action, praise the child's perfect performance in the process, focused eyes and accurate hand control. This feeling is the feeling of concentration. In praise, he once again strengthened his physical feelings and performed well.
