How to let children see more details of learning to speak by looking at pictures?

Why is the world what children see and magic what children see? How to let children see more details, read the humor of visual transformation, derive more associations and speak with their eyes through the book "The World I See"?

In the last program, we said that we should learn to talk to children by looking at pictures, and recommended a picture book, The World I See, written by Antoine de Rochelle, a well-respected illustrator in France, who has drawn illustrations for many magazines and children's books and magazines. Katie Kupr is a painter and photographer in Paris. They selected the pictures in the book, including photography, painting and clay sculpture, each with unique details, such as the X-ray of half a pear, such as human figures piled with stones on the beach, giraffes watching TV, and dad's stubble. They painted their hands and posed as turkeys? The arrangement of the works is carefully considered, and you can actually read humor.

How should parents use this super interesting picture book? These 250 pictures can be viewed separately, together or by skipping.

Let's talk about how to guide children to watch alone. In fact, it's not just five-year-olds who look at a picture and talk. I teach the host an impromptu oral class in the university, the content of which is oral communication. We found that even the host, a fluent professional student, was still nervous and embarrassed when he was trained to look at pictures and speak. Because, ah, they have poor observation, just boring imagination, swallowing words, and then preaching at length. Let's observe, think and express from the doll.

It's not bad to say four or five sentences in the language of a five-year-old child. But some children may feel good when they see the pictures, but they may be cheated when they want to express them. Mom and dad should guide the children to say it. Some parents often use closed questions when guiding, for example, how many leaves are these, are they true or false, and so on. As for these questions, when he was about two or three years old, such questions could help him count or learn some words, but by the age of five, the intensity of connecting phrases and sentences was probably not enough. Language is like this, just like writing. If you don't train, you will only stay at a certain primary level. This is why most people can speak and write, but whether they are artistic or not is another matter. Although I speak and write every day, I repeat at the same level, which may not improve my ability. Therefore, our speech training for children should also be ahead of schedule.

For five-year-old children, closed questions are not suitable, so at this time, parents' questions can be moderately open. For example, what do you see? What are these points on the twinkling stars? What do you think the elephant's ears look like? A moderately open question like this.

Next, parents' guidance can be to let children know how a painting is observed from outside to inside or from top to bottom through the process of asking questions. The order of asking questions is the process of observation. For example, take the silhouette of a carnation in the dark in The World I See as an example. This painting is abstract, emphasizing the contrast between black and white, the composition and coordination of points, lines and surfaces. What do you see? The child's answer may fall below the glasses, he said dust. Oh, let's blow it and see if it can fly. But do they really look like they can fly? Why? This is because children may pay more attention to the thickness of each point and so on. And so on. You can also ask how they were painted and whether they were blown in. Can we try, too?

This is how a single work looks at pictures and speaks. The question is moderately open, starting with the focus of children's observation and not evaluating right or wrong. It is good to expand, explore and imagine according to children's ideas.
