What should a 5-year-old learn?

As children grow up, their intelligence gradually develops. During this period, parents need to teach their children some things to enrich their spiritual world. When the child is around five years old, parents must let the child practice observation. They can also teach the child some simple nursery rhymes and give the child certain classification exercises to develop the child's intelligence and make the child smarter!

1. Practice observation

Purpose: To cultivate observation skills in the changes of nature

Method: Take your children to parks and the countryside to cultivate their observation skills by being exposed to nature. For example, they are all water, but why is the water in the suburban rivers flowing and relatively clear, while the water in the park pools does not flow, appears turbid, and sometimes has suspended matter on the surface? Why is it that when we go to the park in the early morning, before the sun rises, it seems a little cool; but when we go to the park at noon, when the sun is at its highest point in the sky, it feels hotter. While the child is observing, parents should constantly ask questions to encourage the child to compare and think continuously. This improves the child's observation ability and, as a result, his thinking ability. In this way, the content and scope of observation can be continuously expanded.

2. Children's songs

1) Wake-up song - Big rooster, crow, little baby, get up early, put on your own clothes, shoes and socks,

The small quilt was folded neatly. I looked at it left and right. It was so tidy and I was happy.

2) Rope skipping song - The flowers are red, the birds are singing, I am skipping rope under the willow tree, my steps are becoming more and more nimble. You jump, I jump, one after the other, with your chest held high and you jumping forward, be gentle with your feet so as not to fall.

3) Song of the Wandering Son - The loving mother sews clothes for her wandering son. I sew my clothes tightly before leaving, fearing that I will return late. Who says that the love of a child can repay the kindness of his parents? (Tang Dynasty Poetry)

3. Classification exercises

Purpose: To develop observation and thinking skills.

Method: Place rabbits, cats, dogs, cars, ships, airplanes and many other toys on the table, and let the children learn to classify the toys according to their nature and store them in different boxes. The child may not be able to meet the requirements at the beginning, but after training, he will classify "animals" into one category and put them in a box; he will classify "transportation tools" into one category and put them in another box. Using this method, you can constantly change the items placed on display and improve children's thinking ability through observation.
