“When I was a kid, I was tormented by the morning reading class. When I think about it now, I was sleepy in the morning reading class, and the words just went through my mouth, not my head. Is memory really best in the morning? Morning memory is not necessarily the best. Many psychologists and educators are curious about the question of “when is memory good”. They have done a lot of experiments to study this issue. Some studies found that the question is related to people. Some people have good memory in the morning, some have good memory in the afternoon, and some have good memory at night; while some studies found that this issue has more to do with personal work and rest, and the quality of sleep at night affects memory learning ability; but there are also studies that found nothing. In short, “which time of the day is better for memory” is still an open question. It’s not really scientific to ask all children to read and memorize in the morning. Who is to say whether memory is good or not? Since short term memory has little to do with the time period, what factors are involved? Sleep time and quality The process of sleep is also the process of the brain organizing the daytime memory and preparing for writing a new day’s memory. If sleep does not last long enough at night, or if the quality of sleep is not high enough, memory and learning ability during the day will be affected. Is memory emotionally charged “What do you hate to eat? What did you have for dinner yesterday?” In general, is the answer to the first question more memorable? Unless, of course, you had a big dinner last night, or a noodle dinner with someone special. Are the memory cues rich? As an example, we help our little ones engage all their senses when teaching them to recognize things around them. Baby, this is soap, smells good, feels smooth, we use it to wipe hands, and then remember to turn on the tap to rinse. For the same memory object, using a variety of rich cues can help us better remember it. Of course, in addition to the above factors, the presence of information interference, concentration, etc. will also affect the effectiveness of memory. To improve your child’s memory, try these tricks I believe most of us have been forced to attend morning reading classes, see here, let the pain end in our generation, let your child get a good sleep, rest well, in order to remember better. Of course, in addition to a good night’s rest, there are still some tips to strengthen your child’s memory: 1. Make abstract information concrete For example, when children first start learning English words, it is more difficult to remember unfamiliar letter combinations and pronunciations. By presenting them separately with pictures, it will be much easier for your child to understand and remember the meaning of the words. 2. Sound, visuals, and writing and drawing multiple clues Children have many learning tasks that require rote memorization, so to enhance memory, consider taking your child to look at the pictures while talking. By doing so, you can add different dimensional cues to the memory object, making it easier for children with different memory preferences – after all, some children are good at remembering by ‘listening’ while others are good at remembering by ‘looking’. Just as there is a preference for “listening” or “watching,” some children are naturally more likely to remember “narrative” information and are more likely to remember and be interested in stories than dry statements. So, if you include the words you need to remember in a story, it won’t take more than a few times for your child to tell you a story in English. 4, a variety of forms of repeated practice No matter what you learn, repeated memory and practice are very important. There is an eraser in the brain, where the memory is not looked over for a long time, where it is likely to be wiped clean. In order to keep your child from getting bored, it is also important to have a method for reviewing. Game style exercises with different rules and forms may be a better design. For example, to get your child to learn a word, set up a pile of items on the bed and then hold up some of the ball-shaped objects and tell your child to ‘ball’. Then, break things up and ask the child to pick out the ‘ball’. For example, to learn to use the word ‘ball’, you can make it into a story and have the ‘ball’ be the main character, repeated over and over again in a situation that is familiar to the child. Then, whenever the word is about to appear, the adult waits for the child to say it.
