Four Memory Exercises to Improve Your Child’s Memory

 

Having a great memory is important for both kids and grown-ups as it makes learning and memorizing things a lot easier. But, just like any other skill, a child is not born with a strong memory. Instead, it can be acquired by different means and practices. So, when it comes to the sharper memory of your child, there are several memory exercises that you should help your child to practice regularly.

Kaintal Senior, one of the best ICSE schools in Patiala, recommends some tips to help your children enrich their experiences and build essential life skills to perform better in their personal and professional lives.

4 Memory Exercises that You Can Try with Your Child:

1. Meditation: Meditation works great for all. Teaching your child to meditate from a very early age is an excellent way to boost his/her memory. It is an effective way to instil good habits in your child and also keep him/her calm and focused. Though practising meditation with a younger kid is a challenging task, still you can start with just 2-5 minutes and then increase the timing accordingly.
2. Exercising: Mental health largely depends upon the well-being of the body. Simply put, being physically fit and active helps the brain to stay sharp and healthy. This is the reason why you should develop the habit of exercising with your child from an earlier age and make it a part of their everyday schedule.
3. Colours: Using colours while teaching your child is an excellent way to ensure that the information will stay in the brain of your child for a longer time. Tactful uses of colours are such an effective element that the brain filters very easily among the billions of pieces of sensory information. So, what you can do is highlight some important passages with different colours or use colourful notes in the textbooks. It can help your child memorize specific information without much hassle.
4. Nutrition: Good diet is essential for the well functioning of both the body and the brain. Without proper nutrition, it will be hard for your child to achieve good health and memory. Experts suggest giving a wholesome diet to children. Foods that contain omega-3, antioxidants, and flavonoids are highly recommended to include in your child's diet to promote brain health.

Conclusion:

Kaintal Senior, being one of the top ICSE schools in Patiala focuses on identifying ways to optimize the overall development of their students and assists them with proper skill development training.

How to Teach Your Child to Spell Difficult Words?

 

Learning to spell is considered an essential academic milestone that allows children to convey their thoughts properly and become proficient writers. So, parents always look for how to teach their children how to spell. It is important to introduce a child to the concept of spelling at the right time and then polish the skill thoroughly. After all, spelling words is a challenging task that requires several rules to understand.

Kaintal Senior, one of the top ICSE schools in Patiala comes with some effective and age-appropriate ways to help you teach spelling to your child in a step-by-step method.

Tips to Help Your Child Learn Spelling:

Now try these easy and effective tricks and tips to help your child learn spelling words.

• Highlight the Difficult Words: The majority of children face difficulties with specific words. For example, your child may find it challenging to spell words like a weird, thief, and achieve, or with some double-letter words like accommodation, address, occasion, etc. In such a case what you can do is highlight these words and encourage them to pay attention to them while reading.

• Break Words: This is the most effective and easiest way to teach spelling to children. When you will break a complex word into a simpler part, your child will automatically spell it. So, it is recommended to separate the words by syllables to make children understand how to spell the letters of each syllable and finally bring them together to form a word. Suppose you are facing difficulties to teach your child spell work like Television or Cycle. So, what you can do is break up the work into te/le/vi/sion and cy/cle. Thus, you can help your child to learn the proper way to spell words.

• Practice: When it comes to teaching your child to spell words, make sure you regularly encourage your child to practice them and make it a habit. What you can do is to write down work in their notebook and then draw three sections beside it for your child to write the same word. Thus you can make your child remember difficult words.

Conclusion:

Learning to spell offers several benefits to children. The more fluently a child knows how to spell, the better he/she can read and write. This is why Kaintal Senior, the best ICSE school in Patiala always gives importance to cultivating this skill in their students.
