所以,去年我們決定采取不同的方法。我們?nèi)绾尾拍茏寣W(xué)習(xí)和閱讀再次有趣?我們?cè)趺茨茏屗麄兣d奮地打開(kāi)一本書(shū)?或者探索一個(gè)新的主題?
Here are three ideas we used, and two more that we’ll try this year. Plus, these don’t just work for kids! Adults can always use extra motivation to get our minds in high gear too. So, try them for everyone in your family!
這里有三個(gè)我們使用過(guò)的好主意,還有兩個(gè)我們今年將嘗試的。另外,這些不只適用于孩子們!成年人也可以利用額外的動(dòng)力讓我們的頭腦保持良好狀態(tài)。所以,為你家里的每個(gè)人試一試吧!
Find Fun Bookmarks
有趣的書(shū)簽
These cute printable bookmarks to color are the perfect start to a new look on reading. Have kids color them in, and then laminate for extra durability (or print on cardstock). Tell your kids to put one in the next good book they want to read, and you’ve instantly created a more fun experience.
這些可愛(ài)的彩色打印書(shū)簽是閱讀的完美開(kāi)始。讓孩子們給它們上色,然后用層壓板來(lái)增加耐用性(或者在卡片上打印)。告訴孩子在下一本他們想讀的好書(shū)里放一個(gè),你立刻就創(chuàng)造了一個(gè)更有趣的體驗(yàn)。
Make a Reading Spot
設(shè)置閱讀點(diǎn)
Do you have a super comfy place in your home just for reading? Perhaps it’s time to make one! Throw blankets in the bathtub or make a permanent window seat where anyone can go to enjoy a good book. By making your home conducive to reading, you’ll be setting the stage for lifelong readers.
你家里有沒(méi)有一個(gè)超級(jí)舒適的地方專門(mén)用來(lái)閱讀?也許是時(shí)候做一個(gè)了!在浴缸里鋪上毯子或者做一個(gè)永久的靠窗的座位,任何人都可以去那里享受一本好書(shū)。通過(guò)讓你的家有利于閱讀,你將為終身讀者搭建舞臺(tái)。
Get Into a Program
參加一個(gè)挑戰(zhàn)
Especially in the summer, most libraries have a reading program that ends in a prize. At ours, it’s a book that the kids get to pick out at the end of the summer. If yours doesn’t have one, create your own reading challenge or program and let the kids decide what they’d like to do if they hit their reading goals. It will be the perfect end of summer delight to celebrate their accomplishment!
特別是在夏天,大多數(shù)圖書(shū)館都有一個(gè)閱讀計(jì)劃,以獎(jiǎng)品結(jié)束。在我們家,這是一本孩子們?cè)谑罴俳Y(jié)束時(shí)可以挑選的書(shū)。如果你的孩子沒(méi)有閱讀計(jì)劃,那么你可以創(chuàng)建自己的閱讀挑戰(zhàn)或者計(jì)劃,讓孩子們自己決定如果他們達(dá)到了自己的閱讀目標(biāo),他們想要做什么。慶祝他們的成就將是夏天的完美結(jié)束!
Get Audiobooks
有聲讀物
Who says YOU or THEY have to do all the reading?! Why not try a recorded read-a-loud where you listen. You are still getting into the story or gaining unique knowledge, and sometimes this is a wonderful and effortless way to wind down the family at night.
誰(shuí)說(shuō)你或他們必須要讀所有的書(shū)?!為什么不試試用錄音聽(tīng)一聽(tīng)呢。你仍然可以進(jìn)入故事或獲得獨(dú)特的知識(shí),有時(shí)這是一個(gè)美妙和輕松的夜晚。
Model Learning
榜樣的力量
And finally, if you want your kids to become lifelong learners and readers, they should see their parents doing it too. Because here’s the truth: we do what is modeled for us, not what someone tells us to do. I mean, isn’t it really annoying when someone advises you to do something that they would never do themselves?!
最后,如果你希望你的孩子成為終身學(xué)習(xí)者和讀者,他們也應(yīng)該看到他們的父母也這樣做。因?yàn)檫@是事實(shí):我們要做我們想要效仿的,而不是別人告訴我們要做的。我是說(shuō),當(dāng)有人建議你做一些他們永遠(yuǎn)不會(huì)做的事情時(shí),不是真的很煩人嗎?!
So, find books that you love to read and join a challenge yourself. (I love my book a week challenge with a friend). And, take it a step further by talking to your kids about the books you enjoy, or the new information you learned today. They will love sharing ideas and you’ll be creating an environment that benefits them for a lifetime.
所以,找一些你喜歡讀的書(shū),自己參加一個(gè)挑戰(zhàn)。(我喜歡我的書(shū),每周和朋友一起挑戰(zhàn))。更進(jìn)一步,和你的孩子談?wù)勀阆矚g的書(shū),或者你今天學(xué)到的新知識(shí)。他們會(huì)喜歡分享想法,而你會(huì)創(chuàng)造一個(gè)讓他們終身受益的環(huán)境。
In Conclusion
總之
Finally, one of the best gifts you could give your kids is a love for learning. So, take the time to make sure they have books and series that really speak to them.
最后,你能給孩子的最好禮物之一就是對(duì)學(xué)習(xí)的熱愛(ài)。所以,花點(diǎn)時(shí)間確保他們有真正能與他們對(duì)話的書(shū)籍和系列。
