直言:孩子应该如何读书,读什么书
送交者: 直言 2009年09月05日11:38:22 于 [海 二 代] 发送悄悄话

不言而喻,孩子养成读书的习惯非常重要。培养孩子读书,要从婴儿做起,先是家长用讲故事的方法读,一般到四、五岁孩子大概就会自己看了。到了七、八岁,方法得体的话,孩子就会津津有味地自己读书了。读书多少,因人而异,家长不必太拘泥于具体数量,切忌造成逆反心理。我没有读到过孩子平均看多少书的统计。我自己的孩子十岁后大概是每月读十到二十本书左右。

孩子课外广泛阅读,对于激发孩子求知的好奇心,培养情操,增加孩子的词汇量,提高写作能力,学习不同的思维方法,锻炼孩子独立思考能力(如能对学校或家长的“正统”思维多问几个为什么),接触不同的生活经历,学到课本以外的知识,如人文、科技、生活经验方面的,等等,等等,都是至关重要。

我个人的看法,课外阅读,不要拘泥于所谓的“系统”,要杂,体材、类别上,风格上,题材上,思想体系上,尽量的求广和杂。这样对于培养孩子宽广的视野、丰富的知识面有好处。要鼓励孩子敢于提问题、善于提问题,越有原创性越好。要鼓励孩子 think out of the box,不可苛求对错。

当然,如果孩子提问中反映出的是对刚看过的书不理解,或是逻辑上有问题,这些属于“不善于”提问题,是家长须耐心地帮助的地方。但教育的时候要注意方法,切不可让孩子误解,而不敢再提问题。

读书杂,并不等于滥,看到什么读什么。相反,我认为应该小心翼翼地选择。我们大部分网友在北美,看的是英文书籍,非常幸运,英美文化有重视读书的好传统。不仅各大报纸、杂志有写书评的习惯,好书推荐也多如牛毛。我们家长要善加利用。另外,学校老师、当地图书馆也是咨询的好渠道。

为抛砖引玉,下面是我摘录的美国全国教育协会(the National Education Association根据对在职教师的调查推荐的一百本最佳书籍(应该只是英文书籍),我喜欢他们的方法,但这个清单的缺点是老了点儿(1990年做的调查)。之所以抄在这里,是因为该书单有孩子年龄区别,对朋友们更有帮助。说明一点,这里面的书,是“必看书”,只是起点。
