April 2 - International Children's Book Day. Do your kids love to read? It would seem a paradox: there are techniques for teaching reading - spelling syllables, words - but the techniques accustomed to read books - not. Because there is no love, through violence, and if the passion for reading has not emerged by itself, it will have to give a little, homeopathically, in a very literate doses. Fortunately, this "recipe" has described in his book, the French writer Daniel Pennac.
He formulated the 10 golden rules for children's reading. Ingeniously simple rules that act, they have helped to make friends with books to thousands of children. Try this method to a month to see how your offspring with gusto read at bedtime. This is reality!
10 Rules Daniel Pennac
1. The right not to read. Do not force the power of reading. Creak teeth. Silently creak, but do not force. Think of ways to be interested, but not force. The best way - to begin to read the book aloud to your child and... focus on the most interesting place.
2. Right jump. The child has the right to flip through pages of boring (for example, long descriptions of nature), and read what he is interested.
3. The right not to finish. Never force your child to finish before the end of the book, which he did not like. Will be in his collection book that he would re-read many times.
4. The right to reread. Let reread a favorite book as often as the child wants.
5. The right to read it anyhow. At first glance, this rule seems to be controversial, but it is important. In the school world, every child is having a lot of restrictions, so read at home, he should have a full and unconditional right to choose a book to read (except, of course, dangerous literature).
6. The right to bovarizm(Enthusiastic and sublime attitude to read, unwillingness to see the line between fantasy and reality). Never make fun of ideals teens, be tolerant, and let you know perfectly well that your child's favorite hero - just a figment of imagination of the author, and is far from reality.
7. The right to read anywhere. Do not forbid your child to read in bed, on the subway or bus, even for food. If a child takes with him a book, this is the best thing you could have done: he loved to read!
9. The right to "stick" (Extract from the shelf the first book, open it at any page and stuck for a moment, because we have only available this minute is).
Even one page read broadens the mind. If the young reader into the hands of the book, to which he has "not mature enough", he leafed through it, read a couple of lines - and then, the book will remain in the memory of the child and remember it at the right time.
10. The right to remain silent about the read. Normally, if the child does not want to talk to someone (and you as well) Read. Perhaps now it is not ready, but it is not necessary that he did not read the book remained indifferent to its content. Maybe just the opposite: the story so shocked that a child needs time to "digest" the reading. Do not hurry, let him catch his breath, to be fed with the atmosphere and their thoughts.
Maybe these rules will be useful to children you know - share them just now, and you will be very grateful for the valuable clue.
