"mr. Yeko, the kindergarten class, can he practice pen-shaping and writing? I'm in a hurry!"
This is a message from a parent and friend. On the subject of children's pen-shaping and writing, the point is not how early it is for children to write, but to have their body hardware ready before entering primary school。
And this "hardware" is -- enough hand muscle。
This requires parents to exercise this “hardware” condition before the child is four years old。
Because four to six years of age is the best time to lead a child in the right position。
It would be particularly difficult to correct the fact that, after the age of six, the child still maintains the wrong pen-shaping position。
So before school, we should focus more on the handpower of training our children。
The ability of children to help adults with household tasks, their greater involvement in manual activities, their drawings, their playing instruments, their ability to play music, their ability to play music, their ability to build blocks, etc., is an effective way to exercise their hands。
If you can't let the child do more now, it will be the child who will suffer。
Moreover, keeping the wrong pen positions for a long period of time may also affect the position of the child, thus causing a series of problems。
For example, the recent focus on children's spinal bends is related to their poor pen and physical positions。
There are individual differences in the development of children, as if some children speak late, others speak early, and children develop their ability to move in a fine manner。
As a result, some children may be ready at the age of four for hand muscle strength and hand eye coordination and space processing, and they can easily shake and write, while others need to be five or six years old。
However, it would be preferable not to have children practiced pen-shakes before they reached the age of six, otherwise the outside learning environment would undermine the children's learning self-confidence and thus their interest in learning。
How do you know if a kid can practice a penshake
It's easy to give the child a thick crayon and see if the child can be painted with as little control as possible outside the drawing line。
If the child is coloured in a uniform manner and can also be painted on a graphic line, indicating the child's capacity for hand-eye coordination, spatial sensory and mobility planning, it is relatively complete, and parents can try to teach the child the correct pen-shaping position, but care must be taken to move gradually。
If the child is not able to paint relatively evenly at the age of five, and cannot control the extent of the painting, much of it is painted outside the line, it is necessary to strengthen the control of his hands and body stability。
The following games can be used for exercise:
Targeted baskets (2-5 years)
Scrap paper in one group and a trash can at a distance of about one metre from the child so that the child can stand in a fixed place and throw it into the trash can。
Children can also be placed on trampling beds, jumping and throwing, helping to reconcile their hands, visualization and the development of front-court functions。
Single-footed ball (3-6 years)
Having the child sit on a one-legged bench turns around and hits the ball, increases the child's balance capacity and physical harmony, improves the situation of poor sit-in and often incorrect copying。
Paper cups for small balls (over 3)
Prepare a paper cup and a marble to throw the ball on the table, and then hit it with a paper cup, which will help in eye coordination, visual integration and visual tracking。
Doll cut hair (over 4 years of age)
Learning to use scissors before the age of six is a necessary capability for every child. Parents can draw lines in different shapes on paper, allowing children to use child scissors along lines, which can facilitate the development of hand muscles。
That's right
When a child's "hardware" conditions are ready, the child enters the traditional way of handshakes, which are the most standard set of handshakes。
The right handshake is accompanied by finger, wrist and arm strength. It's hard for a grown-up who doesn't practice to stay in this position, not to mention children with limited muscle control。
And to force the so-called “right positions”, which are more susceptible to deformation when they are less capable, is even more difficult to correct later when the wrong pen positions become habitual。
The child's writing is first to ensure the correct posture of the pen, and first to ensure that the writing is correct and neat, and then to discuss it。
