How to enlighten your baby in English?
My husband and I are both college students and can speak a little English, but it has been useless for many years. I want my baby to grow up in a bilingual environment, but my vocabulary is obviously not enough. So how should you enlighten your baby?
Question answer
Bian Xiao's view: Enlightenment begins with interest.
Interest is the best teacher.
There is nothing wrong with this sentence. Before you find your interest in learning, your grades are a guide.
So how to cultivate interest:
Start with cartoons with Chinese and English subtitles;
If your child is still in preschool, Disney has a set of English short films, which are very practical, starting with simple words and phrases needed in daily life, accompanied by animations and songs.
If children can read, they can watch some cartoons with faster speech and stronger content. Like Starbaby or something. Or take the children to watch some English animated movies.
Note that this stage is not for children to learn anything specific. This stage is mainly to cultivate children's interest, let children have a preliminary understanding of English as a language, and have a certain curiosity and yearning for English language and culture. At the same time, it subtly cultivates pronunciation, intonation and sense of language.
Chinese-English mashup
The topic mainly knows that Dora, the program of learning English, adopts the English-Chinese mixed teaching mode for teaching. In fact, this is a very suitable language teaching method.
The theme can take the form of, for example: What is this? This is an apple, and so on, teach children some simple life terms.
* * * Study together to create a parent-child atmosphere for family study.
The problem mentioned by the subject said that the vocabulary was not enough. In fact, you don't have to play the role of a perfect and omnipotent mother or father all the time. You can have shortcomings or do bad things, so that you can learn and grow together with your children. This can not only cultivate the scholarly atmosphere of the family, but also cultivate the parent-child relationship of unity and cooperation and enhance the unity between families.
In short, the lack of vocabulary is not a problem, but an opportunity.
Come on, for tomorrow's sun.
