How to train children to concentrate

It is children's nature to like playing and exercising. These are all relatively normal phenomena, but if children play too much or even develop ADHD, this will often lead to their inability to concentrate. If this continues for a long time, it will have an adverse effect on their intellectual development and future social life. As parents, we should provide certain training in this regard.

1. Paired practice method

The practice of this training method is to let the teenagers memorize two related materials at the same time, and then let them recall the other related material based on one material.

2. Practice by sequence

The practice of this training method is: let the teenager memorize some information in order, then cover the information and reveal the contents of the information one by one. Each time a piece of information is revealed, let the teenager recall the following content.

Examples of detailed exercises:

The adults find some pictures, cover them with pieces of paper, and then reveal them one by one from top to bottom so that the teenagers can remember them.

After showing the picture to the boy three times, cover it up, then reveal each one and ask the boy to say what the next one is.

The adult asks the teenager to look at the numbers in the box below for 1 minute, then covers the numbers and reveals them in order from left to right.

Each time a number is revealed, ask the child to say the number to the right of it (if the child does not complete it well the first time, he can do it again).

1 3 8 2 5 9 0 12 4 7 10 15 17 20

3. Throwing exercise method

The practice of this training method is: first let the teenagers memorize some information, and then do not let them recall it immediately after memorizing it. Instead, let them do some other work, and then let them recall the content they have memorized before.

4. Digital practice method

The purpose of this training method is to develop memory ability by allowing teenagers to memorize a large number of numbers. As mentioned earlier, numbers are the most difficult material to remember, so they are also the best material for practicing memory skills.

5. Frequency practice method

The practice of this training method is to repeatedly show some information to the teenagers, some of which are presented multiple times, so that the teenagers can remember the number of times these materials are presented.

Examples of detailed exercises: Parents prepare pictures of 7 animals, such as rabbit, dog, horse, monkey, elephant, giraffe, and sheep. Then show the pictures to the teenagers in the following order, with each picture showing for one second. Then ask the teenagers to say how many times the pictures of the rabbit and the elephant appeared. If the youth does not complete it well, it can be repeated once. Rabbit, monkey, giraffe, rabbit, elephant, sheep, dog, horse, monkey, elephant, rabbit, monkey, elephant, giraffe. The parent reads the following numbers to the teenager in sequence, one per second. After reading it, let the boy say 5 and 6, and read these two numbers several times. If the youth does not finish well, he can repeat it. 5-4-3-6-8-5-8-5-2-9-6-1-5-2-7, parents please guide them patiently.
