the text of page 137-139 of the two grade Chinese textbook for grade two, the text of "save mother" is not strict or coined. The text mainly said that Edison was 7 years old, and mother got appendicitis. When he was late to the hospital and the lights were dim at home, he came up with a way of concentrating with mirrors, so that his mother's operation was successful. However, Edison, born in 1847, was 7 years old in 1854, and the first case of appendicitis in the world was 1886, that is to say, when Edison was a child, there was no appendicitis at all. It is really painful to have such an error in such an authoritative textbook. If such a textbook will go wrong, how should we give the children the books that are reliable now?
even authoritative textbooks are wrong. What else can we trust? As parents, how can we choose books? On this issue, I would like to talk about my feelings, welcome criticism and correction. All the time, I have chosen books for children to follow the three principles of interesting, useful and beneficial, specifically:
the interesting book is the name of the book that can attract children and allow children to contact books and close books. Interest is the best teacher, usually to care more about children, to observe what the children are interested in and talented, and we will gradually guide the children to this aspect. Children are interested in things, they will do it themselves, do not need our parents to supervise and urge, it can be said to be twice the result with half the effort.
useful books are books that can be taught, knowledge-based, and aesthetical, and thus the children's thinking, imagination, and expressiveness can be exercised through interesting guidance. Because children are still small and immature, if they are only interested in choosing the books they need to read, they need to guide them correctly and choose some useful books for them to learn and make them develop more comprehensively. For example, some popular science books, humanities books and so on, can let children learn something.
is a useful book, which is a useful concept in narrow sense, which is of great benefit to children's life education and philosophical thinking. Teach some easy to understand philosophical stories, tell some useful historical allusions and so on.
read together with children, grow together!
although I have chosen a lot of books for the children, but when I give them the books, I will tell them that the knowledge on the books is not necessarily 100% correct, and there are questions or ideas that can be told to mother, we study together. The children learned a lot from books, and asked me a lot of questions. Some of them were childish, but maybe this is normal. Some questions even I don't know the answer, and search related information to answer, this is also a way for me to grow up.
chatting with children, becoming friends with them and growing together with them. We are not the only authority to look forward to. Therefore, although the book has the wrong place, who will care, we do not think that it can not be wrong, when we find mistakes even let us excited, because only serious, rigorous talent will find the problem from the clues.
