As parents return to work, the children's winter vacation is also "insufficient balance". Approaching the start of school, many children have recently developed "school opening syndrome":
and electronic products are reluctant, and the bed is inseparable; Depressed mood and low spirits. In the short time before the start of school, how to help children adjust their state and meet the new journey with full spirit?
Here's a guide to get ready for the new semester with your child!
Wrap up the tail
At the beginning of each school year, there will be a group of children who are in a fugue state of "people in the classroom, hearts in the holidays" for a period of time.
At this time, parents may wish to say goodbye to their children during the winter vacation: review the meaningful or memorable things that happened in their winter vacation life, such as the housework that the children do, the gathering with friends, the family trip together, the reunion of the Chinese New Year's Eve, etc.
Talk to each other about each other's feelings and experiences about the holidayThrough the way of review, the child's sense of experience and gain of the holiday is increased, and the child is also aware of the end of the holiday.
If a child has a winter vacation plan, parents can compare the plan with their child to see which ones have been completed and which ones have not been completed, and praise the completed parts in time to encourage the children to make persistent efforts; If you find that you have not done the finished parts, you can analyze the reasons with your child, whether the goal is too high or the self-discipline is insufficient, etc., and make timely improvements.
Finally, remember to check your holiday homework and fill in the gaps. One is to see how well the assignment is completed. If there are still unfinished parts, parents need to do a good job of supervising and guiding their children to grasp the time and ensure that they can complete their homework on time. The second is to ensure the quality of work. In the last few days, parents should focus on the quality of their children's homework. If there is a hasty response or plagiarism, you should immediately point it out, guide the child to establish a good learning attitude, and suggest that the child complete it again.
In addition, a positive learning atmosphere is key to getting children back into focus, and parents can do the following two things. The first is to prepare learning materials with your child。Life needs a sense of ritual, and the start of school is no exception. Parents can take their child to the bookstore and let him pick out learning tools and some necessary tutoring books. The second is to accompany the child to the library for a walk. The tranquil library is the place where the atmosphere of learning is most intense. Here, children can study the relevant books for the next semester in advance, and they can also read extracurricular books. Let the rich bookish atmosphere calm the hustle and bustle of the heart and return to a quiet state of learning.
Talk about your heart
At the end of the holiday, some children may experience depression, nervousness, anxiety and other emotions due to reasons such as not completing the holiday plan as they wish and having a certain amount of pressure on the new semester.
Parents should give their children a warm embrace, accept their children's emotions, talk to their children from the child's point of view, and give more positive feedback and positive psychological hints in communication with their children to alleviate their inner fragility and uneasiness.
Parents can talk more about school life with their children, guide them to recall interesting events and positive emotional experiences that happened on campus, awaken their children's longing for teachers, classmates, and campus life, and imply that their children have advantages that others do not have, so that children are psychologically full of expectations and confidence in the new semester.
When children have negative emotions that last for a long time and cannot be regulated, parents should seek help from psychological teachers and professional doctors in time.
Schedule
At the end of the holidays, many children will have a thought: "I need to play more happily in the last few days, and I can play enough to go to school with peace of mind".
However, if the schedule is not adjusted in advance, children will usually have poor concentration and poor energy at the beginning of school, which will affect the adaptation after the start of school.
Therefore, parents may wish to seize the tail end of the holiday with their children, make a schedule close to school life, ensure a regular schedule, and gradually go to bed early.
At the same time, discuss the time plan for the last few days with your child, and reasonably arrange the "play time", "study time" and outdoor activity time. Guide children to follow their usual school schedule, study and activities, so that children can adapt to the rhythm of life after school starts.
Reduce the amount of time you spend on entertainment devices such as mobile phones。An important part of collecting your heart is to collect your mobile phone. The "collection of mobile phones" here is not to directly confiscate the mobile phone, but to negotiate with the child to play with the mobile phone. More restraints, more reminders, in front of children, parents try to play less mobile phones, watch less TV, and set a good example for children.
Set goals
At the beginning of the new semester, parents and children can work together to set some goals and plans according to the actual situation, respect the children's wishes in the process of setting goals, and also set goals in combination with the "smart principle", that is, the goals set should be "specific", "measurable", "achievable" and "relevant" time-based" to help children clarify their direction and eliminate their sense of blindness.
Parents can discuss with their children what subject grades they need to focus on in the new semester, what methods they need to improve, and what help they need from parents, so as to improve their children's sense of control over their learning, regain their learning status, and relieve the pressure of the new semester.
As the new semester arrives, let's do it in a gentle and calm way.
Help children adjust their state in time and be a good supporter of children!
