有些家长很苦恼,无论他们怎么诱导,孩子就是对阅读不感兴趣。
何振(何振,上海正向家庭教育研究中心研究员、家庭教育问题研究实践专家,现任多地教育局、妇联与团委的家庭教育顾问。): 如何让孩子喜欢上阅读,我在教育自已的孩子的过程中走了三条途径:
一、多买孩子喜欢的书给他看,同时引导他阅读相关的书籍。有些家长买书只考虑这本书对学习成绩有没有帮助,如一课一练,作文集等。事实证明,这种书买得越多,孩子越厌学。
我孩子平时喜欢看奥特曼的书,我就买了大量这方面的书给他看,然后引导孩子再去阅读相关的书籍,如:机器人、科学、《十万个为什么》以及恐龙、动物和植物等书籍。虽然他今年才8岁,却已看过400多本书,阅读的书籍类型几乎无所不有,甚至包括非常枯燥和深奥的物理学和化学。
二、不断给孩子买书,营造书香家庭环境。有了读书的氛围,在不干扰孩子阅读选择的同时,也不对孩子阅读时间和数量做具体限制,那么,随着家中藏书的不断积累,孩子就会自然而然地爱上阅读。
我在测试中发现:如果一个读小学二年级的孩子,除了课本还有100本以上的书的家庭中,几乎每个孩子都会喜欢阅读。以所,我建议家长每个月给孩子买100元以上的书。这样,小学毕业时家里就会有近800本书。通过这800本书的阅读,孩子不但会喜欢上读书,得到的信息也会比课本大许多。
三、做一个聆听者,分享孩子阅读的感受。当孩子把自已所学知识讲给你听时,不管他表达得是否具体和正确,你都专注地聆听。当讲到你所不知道的事情时,你要从语言和表情上体现出你的惊喜和对孩子由衷的欣赏,承认我们的无知,孩子就会从我们的“无知”中找到自信和成功感。

How to Induce your Children to Like to Read
Some parents are very distressed, because their children are no interested in reading, no matter how they induce their children to read.
He Zhen(a researcher comes from Family Education Research Center of ZhengXiang, shanghai, as well as be known as an expert who research and practice the problem of family education. Now, he is serving as a family education expert consultant to the Department of Education, Women’s Federation and the Youth League Committee at some areas.): How to induce children to like to read. In the process of educating my own child, I have taken three avenues:
First, buy more books which your children like, meanwhile, guide them to read the related books. Some parents buy the books that just consider whether it can help their children’s study or not. Such as, one lesson with one practice, compositions collection, and so on. The facts have proved that the more these books you buy, the more they would weary of study.
My son usually likes to read the books about Altman, so I bought a lot of these books to him, and then guided him to read the related books. Such as: robots, science, tell me why, as well as dinosaurs, animals and plants, and so on. Even though he is 8 years old, he has already read more than 400 books. The books which he read refer to every type, even including the very boring and difficult physics and chemistry.
Second, buy books to your children continually and create an environment which all family members are book-lovers. With the reading atmosphere and without interference reading choice, as well as the specific restriction on reading time and quantity, then, the collection of books in your family will become more and more. At that time, your children will love to read naturally.
According to a test, I found that if a second grade primary school child has more than 100 books besides the textbooks, almost every child would like to read. So, my suggestion is that parents should spend over 100 yuan on buying books to your children per month. Therefore, after your children graduate from elementary school, they will have nearly 800books. By reading these 800books, your children not only like to read, but also can get the larger information than that from the textbooks.
Third, you should be a listener and share your children’s feelings which they get from reading. When your children want to share their own knowledge they have learnt, no matter his expression is specific and accurate or not, you should be dedicated to listen. When they talk something you do not know, you should reflect your pleasure surprise and heartfelt appreciation to them by your language and expression and admit our ignorance. Therefore, our children will find the self-confidence and a sense of success from our ignorant.
