It is rather common that few schools make science attractive. Textbooks are as dull as dictionaries. As a result, children think that science is only for people as clever as Einstein. But actually children start out as natural scientists, eager to look into the world around them. Helping them enjoy science can be easy. 1 You just have to share your children’s curiosity.

Give them time to think and ask. Adults are always used to asking children questions and waiting for their answers. It is typical that after asking a question, adults wait only one second or less for an answer, no time for a child to think. In fact, when adults increase their “wait time” to three seconds or more, children give more logical and complete answers. Besides, if given some chances, children can also ask some wonderful and creative questions. 2

Watch your language. Once you have a child involved in a science discussion, don’t jump in with “That’s right” or “Very good”. These words work well when it comes to encouraging good behavior.

3 Instead, keep things going by saying “That’s interesting” or “I’d never thought of it that way before”, or coming up with more questions or ideas.

4 It doesn’t make sense. Children are always thinking, without your telling them to. What’s more, this can turn a conversation into a performance. The child will try to find the answer you want, in as few words as possible, so that he will be a less likely target for your disagreement.

Show; don’t tell. 5 Let children look at their fingertips through a magnifying glass (放大镜), and they’ll understand why you want them to wash before dinner. Instead of saying that water evaporates (蒸发), set a pot of water to boil and let them watch the water level drop.

A．Encourage children to think.

B．Never push a child to “Think”.

C．Real-life impressions of nature are far more impressive.

D．It is necessary for parents to tell children some stories about science.

E．There’s no need for a lot of scientific terms or expensive lab equipment.

F．But in talking about science, quick praise can signal that discussion is over.

G．This ability comes from the deep thinking and the desire to know what they don’t know.

【推荐2】When my friend offered me a spider plant sprout, I decided to try something I'd never done before: commit to becoming a plant person. After doing research and changing my perspective, I can proudly say I am succeeding. 1 .

Start with Easy Plants

2 . Just water and sunlight, right? Apparently not. I focused my efforts on easy plants, which have basic needs, and aren't as temperamental as some other plants.

Research

It might seem like a pain but doing a little research can be the difference between your plant surviving and thriving. Looking up how much sunlight the plant needs, how often to water it, 3 and if it requires any special care can help you to be a good plant person.

Too much water can drown the plant. Not watering your plant enough can cause it to dry out and die very quickly. You'd better make a watering schedule to make sure you don't over or under water your plants.

Cater to the Plant

Just after a few weeks, I noticed the plant leaves were losing their green color. I found spider plants don't do well with intense afternoon sunlight. So I completely rearranged all my plants in my living room to cater to their specific sunlight needs. 5 .

A．Do It with Love

B．Plants Need Watering Every Day

C．Create a Watering Schedule

D．what temperature it does best in

E．Now my plants are thriving more than ever
