It's winter vacation, and it's time for parents and friends to have an annual headache time award, will your "divine beast" be like this when studying?
Maybe the child is not just "not interested in learning" and "naughty and rebellious", but may be learning difficulties.
01 Is learning difficulty a disease?
Learning difficulties are a disease! In medicine, learning difficulty in the narrow sense is actually a disorder in the development of learning skills, including mathematical learning disabilities, dysgraphia, dyslexia, etc., which make children show incomplete abilities in activities such as listening, reading, writing, or mathematical calculations. Learning difficulties are the result of a child's poor learning status and poor grades due to a variety of factors.
Jiang Zhihua, an expert from Fudan Children's Hospital in Hangzhou, pointed out that children with learning difficulties usually have normal IQs, and some children even exceed the normal level. However, they are often hit by the difficulty of completing some simple and ordinary things, and they appear to be isolated and lonely, which may also induce serious psychological and behavioral problems.
Therefore, parents should raise their awareness and go to a professional hospital in time to cooperate with the doctor when the child has the above symptoms.
02Early identification and intervention are important
7-year-old Yuanyuan was brought to Hangzhou Fudan Children's Hospital by her mother for treatment, and Director Jiang Zhihua learned after the consultation: Yuanyuan does not talk much at home and school because of her grades, and often goes alone, so she can't make new friends, causing Yuanyuan to be more introverted and less and less good at interpersonal communication.
In terms of learning, my mother reported that Yuanyuan's memory was very poor, and she forgot the words she had just been taught, and she could not complete the simplest mathematical calculations well; Not understanding and being distracted have become a stumbling block on Yuanyuan's learning path, and Yuanyuan's parents have a hard time tutoring their children's homework.
Through multi-dimensional professional consultation and testing, we found that Yuanyuan had extremely poor attention and a total Wechsler IQ score of 79.
After several months of physiotherapy, attention training sessions and medication** from Director Jiang, Yuanyuan's attention review turned into moderate inconcentration. Although it is still difficult for the child to do homework and needs to be supervised and tutored, the degree of cooperation and understanding and acceptance have improved, and Yuanyuan's mother is also very happy.
03 Don't have a headache during the winter vacation, let the child overtake in the corner
At home during the winter vacation, parents can supervise and intervene in their children's learning, which is a good time to overtake in corners. In the face of children's learning difficulties, parents should not be too anxious and harsh on their children, you can try the following methods
1. Dyslexia:
Use visual tools or techniques to aid reading, such as subtitles, large print, voice readers, etc.
Help children understand texts through play and interactive methods, such as role-playing, story retelling, etc.
Encourage children to ask questions while reading and develop their critical thinking.
2. Dysgraphia:
Strengthen finger dexterity and strength, and train with hand movement games or tools.
Use a template or clipboard to help your child write letters and Chinese characters correctly.
Encourage your child to write more by hand, such as diaries, notes, etc.
3. Dyscalculia:
Counting and simple arithmetic operations through objects or models enhance children's intuitive understanding.
Cultivate children's logical thinking, such as Sudoku, math games, etc.
Regular calculation exercises to strengthen memory.
4. Lack of concentration:
Set clear goals and time management techniques so your child knows when to focus.
Encourage your child to participate in activities that require concentration, such as puzzles, building blocks, etc.
Provide a quiet, distraction-free learning environment with less distractions from external factors.
Reminder:
In view of some children's inattention, hyperactivity and distraction, dyslexia, dyscalculia, etc., Hangzhou Fudan Children's Hospital has set up a "Learning Difficulties Clinic" to understand and analyze children's learning ability from multiple perspectives and dimensions such as the children's self, parents, and schools, so as to find the root cause of the problem faster. Individualized and comprehensive intervention plans are developed for each child, and more comprehensive diagnosis and treatment services are provided for children from the aspects of physiology, neuroscience, psychology, etc., and psychological counseling services can be carried out at the same time.
