5. Avoid frequently using negative language, such as "No", "Stop" and "No".
6. Distinguish the children's bad habits from the children themselves. For example, you can say to your child, "I like you, but I don't like your disobedience."
7. Make a very clear schedule for children. Set a timetable for getting up, eating, playing, watching TV and going to bed. Observe the time schedule, but be flexible when children don't observe the time. After a period of time, your schedule will become your child's own habit.
8. When you teach him new things, be patient, explain briefly and clearly, and repeat your requirements frequently.
9. Try to set aside a space for children in the room, avoid decorating with bright and strong colors, and keep the room simple and tidy. Put the desk under an empty wall to keep it away from interference, which is good for children's concentration.

5. Four ways to arouse interest in learning
(1) Interest suggestion method
For those subjects that you don't like, you can use interest suggestion method.
For example, in mathematics, before studying, first warm up, rubbing your hands, smiling, looking at mathematics, and saying loudly, "Mathematics, I will like you from today!" "Lovely math, I'm going to be interested in you." "Teaching, I will learn you with great interest!"
Hint at yourself loudly before learning math every time. If you persist for three weeks, or even longer, these languages will go deep into the subconscious. Once you enter the subconscious, your interest in math will really be established.
Many students who are not interested in learning will have unpleasant emotions, even boredom and fear as soon as they pick up books, thus closing their spiritual doors, resulting in low learning efficiency and even ineffectiveness.
When you are rubbing your hands and smiling at yourself, you will feel a sense of pleasure. Boredom and fear will be swept away, and the door of your heart will gradually open, so that the knowledge you want to learn will be easily absorbed.
As students, learning is our duty. If we can't change the curriculum, we have to change ourselves and our attitude towards learning. Pain is learning, and happiness is learning. Why don't we choose to learn happily?
When learning Chinese, I hint to myself: "I am very happy to learn Chinese well, and I am full of interest in Chinese."
when learning mathematics, I suggest to myself: "I am very happy to learn mathematics well, and I am full of interest in mathematics."
this method can be applied to any course. When you study happily, you have become attached to your interest.
(2) self-confidence enhancement method
People often succeed because of self-confidence and often fail because of lack of self-confidence. Emerson, a thinker in the 19 th century, said; "If you believe that you can, you will be invincible. Napoleon even said,' In my dictionary, there is no such word as' impossible'. "It is not the word that made him travel to the north and sweep across the European continent.
In fact, many students just lack the confidence to learn a certain course well, which leads to fear and loss of interest. Therefore, to build up their interest in learning, we can start with enhancing their self-confidence, with the following specific steps;
① imagine what you have achieved, and try to remember that sense of accomplishment in order to gain interest in learning.
② Pleasant things always arouse interest. So try to think of happy things, such as "I will learn another 11 words today" and "I learned how to solve equations today", so that I can know that today is beyond yesterday and establish the belief that "doing more every day is the beginning of success".
(3) Making things real
Dale Carnegie has a famous saying; "If you pretend to be interested in your job, then this attitude will make your interest real and eliminate fatigue." This kind of experience can be well applied to the rise and cultivation of learning; If you are not interested in a certain course or study, you can train yourself to pretend to be interested in it and stick to it, which will certainly have good results.
first, train yourself to smile. Don't frown when you face the course you don't like. Let yourself smile and be happy from the bottom of your heart to keep a sense of happiness.
Then, announce it in affirmative and short sentences; I like you very much! ""I'm very interested in you! "
If you persist in this way for a period of time, you will get rid of the sense of exclusion in your heart. You will really become interested. This method does not mean "getting everything you want", nor does it mean that I can do whatever I want. It requires you to start immediately after you have an interest in learning, and make in-depth research to turn this interest into motivation for in-depth learning.
