Perhaps our greatest neglect in child education is the insignificance of the first years. In these years, the child; it is perceived only as a being to be loved, fed and grown.
All children are born with some potential. |
Scientific research considers the first six-year period as the "vital period".
During this period, children develop very rapidly, not only biologically but also spiritually. During this period, the most basic characteristics and abilities of the child are formed. His intelligence, perception, personality and social behaviors develop and become effective enough to form his character in the coming years. The child who learns to walk, cry, laugh, talk, be afraid, sad and happy during this period completes most of his brain development before the age of seven. Early education, experiences, and stimuli influence brain development. The more accurate and high-quality the physical, social and mental demands of the child are met, the healthier his development can be.
Children have potential.
All children are born with some potential.
Discovering, directing and developing this potential is one of the most important duties of the family. Developmental psychology has revealed that a healthy interaction is determinant in the behavior of the child during the period until he starts school and that the effects of this can be seen throughout his life.
If we can lay the foundation right, the school can build something on it and contribute to the healthy development of the child.
- To be with his friends,
- Creating environments within the family where one can express himself,
- Appreciate and listen to him,
- Paying attention to a balanced diet and health,
- Paying attention to their feelings by responding,
- Show warm and close attention
- are just some of these behaviors.
It should never be forgotten that the child is a separate individual and personality. In addition to their physical needs, their social and emotional needs should also be taken into account, and it should not be forgotten that the two will affect each other.
What is the purpose of education?
The overall aim of educational efforts is to help the younger generation grow up in line with their abilities.
Since the human being is a biopsycho-sociocultural entity, it is clear that the individual should be assisted biologically, psychologically, socially and culturally in his education. Education ceases to be the business of educational institutions alone; It is important to enlighten the family, parents, that is, adults, about child education. Apart from these aids, there is a need for parent schools and group work in order to receive psychological help when necessary.
There is no doubt that school success is one of the issues that most concern parents and educators in the child's education process.
There are many factors that play a role in school success;
The environment to which the child belongs and the interpersonal relations within the family,
especially the behavior of the parents towards the child,
relationship between siblings, physical conditions of the house,
physical and mental health of the child,
The child's relationships with school, teachers and school friends, and the form of these relationships affect the school success of the child positively or negatively.
In addition to all these factors, the inability of the child to focus on a subject plays a negative role in his school success. This problem arises when a child starts school and is asked to focus on a subject. However, focusing attention on a subject can be taught with an education started at an early age.
Preschool education is important.
Mother education should never be considered as an alternative to pre-school education.
If children are unable to attend a preschool for various reasons, home mothers can help develop their children's concentration skills. They can help their children by spending time with them and playing various games with them. There are many toys and books on the market that can be used in studies on this subject.
The choice can be made according to the age and interest of the child;
- jigsaw puzzles,
- Creating certain shapes by combining parts,
- Legos,
- domino games,
- dice games,
- Looking at children's picture books with the child,
- Telling stories to children
- Don't ask him to repeat the tales he's heard
At the same time, in such bilateral relations, the child experiences the feeling of being loved and accepted by his mother or father. Self-confidence comes. Self-confidence plays a positive role in school success in later years.
In addition, the child's positive behaviors should be rewarded, self-decision should be supported, a certain place and time should be determined, and games should be played with the child at certain times of the day. During the day, when the child is with him, it should be recorded what he is happy about.
Homework?
One of the important issues in a child's school success is homework. The child should not be impatient and fussy, and should be encouraged and rewarded during his work. Children should be proud of their work. For example, a success notebook or a success board can be made. As the child succeeds, this can be written in the notebook or a green dot is put on the board. While working with the child, "Look how well you work, go on." it can be tried. "You can do the other one as well as you did this homework." can be tried and the child is encouraged.
School success and educational environments
If the child has various fears, inhibitions and psychological problems, he cannot succeed in school. It is a well-known fact that children should be helped before problem situations arise.
The first condition for a successful education is to accept the child as he is and to allow him to realize himself and show himself as he is.
Teacher-student relationship is very important for a successful education. This relationship plays an important role both in the pre-school period and in the later education levels.
Tell the child what he thinks and feels, allowing him to act as he is, accepting it, recognizing his feelings.
