Who did not write essays at school?Everyone wrote, everyone remembers these insistent exclamations of the teacher: "We give leaflets!", "Five minutes before the end of the lesson!", "Soon the call!" And almost everyone fiercely hates the very word "composition".
Why is this happening?
It's all about rigorous assessments, red ink,comments of teachers and, of course, in the time limit. And even a dearly beloved story is rewarded with a lot of red blots and remarks from an evil teacher: not that, not so, so you can not write.
And what about writing works now?
Now children write a lot of essays in almost every lesson. For example, on the theme "The World around". The story about insects is asked to write not infrequently, and every schoolboy will have to face it.
If your child was suddenly asked to writea story about a ladybug or a description of a butterfly, then do not panic. In this article, you will find a short guide on how to make stories about insects for children. And not only about insects, because these tips can be used for almost any essay or essay.
Six points of tranquility
In order to avoid any problems when writing essays, the child needs to explain the following things:
- He should not be afraid to express his opinion. Even if it is different from what the teacher thinks, classmates, best friend or parents.
- You will love your child, even if he has overwhelmed the composition and made a heap of mistakes in every word. Yes, you will be upset by this, but your attitude towards him will not change.
- While explaining the task (whether it's a taskwrite a small story about insects, solve an example or just write something off the board) you need to listen carefully to the teacher, and not be distracted by friends, birds outside the window or phone.
- Do not be afraid to ask questions and clarify incomprehensible details. It is better to find out the task more thoroughly than to do it incorrectly and then to rewrite it.
- With any problem (it can be rude screaminga teacher, a pen that has not run out of time or an annoying neighbor on the desk) your child can always turn to you. Also, in any case, he can try to explain why he refused to perform the task, did it poorly or did not do it as required.
- Do not hurry when writing a composition, becauseHaste, oddly enough, only slows down the task. If the child does not manage to finish it, then he can always come to the teacher after the lesson and ask him to finish the story later. If this is not possible, then you can ask to finish at home or just to warn that you did not complete the task.
By the way, almost all of the above points are tied to a conversation between the parent and the child. Remember that communication is the most important part of a happy family!
Story about insects: write in class
So, if your child understands what was written before, he should not be nervous if he has to write an essay in the class.
If the job was announced in advance, then you can conduct training at home: pick up materials, view necessary information about insects, roughly draw up a plan for the future story and so on.
Также можно взять с собой в школу атлас или encyclopedia devoted to the theme of composition. Colorful pictures will stimulate the imagination of the child, and the information in the collection can help him write a good story about the ladybug, for example.
If the essay is announced suddenly, directlyduring the lesson, then those six points of tranquility should come to the rescue. After all, the child will simply try diligently to carry out the task, and not to worry because of a bad mark or the corresponding reaction of the parents.
Story on the topic of insects: writing at home
At home, of course, and the walls help. The advantage of writing stories at home is several factors:
- There is no pressure from the teacher.
- Great time frame.
- There is an opportunity to climb the Internet or in the atlas to look at insects and correctly write a story about the butterfly, for example.
- Can help parents or older brothers and sisters.
- You can sit and think about the story as much as you want, bringing the works to perfection.
The only minus in writing work at homeis that you can relax and completely forget about the task. In order to avoid such unpleasant situations, you can either do your homework immediately upon your arrival home, or set an alarm-reminder. Another child may ask parents to remind him of the task, which would be the best option.
A few tricks to help write work
It is very important to decide how the future story should look like. A writing can be written in three ways:
- In the form of a story-memories.In this case, the child must describe any incident that happened to him with the participation of the insect. For example, if a kid writes a story about a ladybug, then a mention of how he found her in an apartment in the winter will do. What she did and how she looked. A story about a butterfly may contain a memory of a village or a dacha, where there are many different bright beauties.
- In the form of descriptions, reflections.Here the child will need to choose a certain insect and just describe it: how it looks, where it lives, what it does, and so on. Also in such stories, it is recommended to indicate a personal opinion: "I like butterflies, because ..." "I do not like spiders, because ..." "I think that centipedes are beautiful because ..." and in the same spirit .
- In the form of a work of art.For example, a child chooses a butterfly and writes about how she walked, what happened to her during the walk and how she reacted to it. This method requires the greatest connection of the imagination, because, in fact, a real little fairy tale is being written. And such a work of art has two subspecies.
- Художественная выдумка.Here butterflies can jump, ants fly, and insect dwellings are more like ordinary apartments. An example is the familiar fable "Dragonfly and the Ant" - a pure fiction. However, you should be careful with this kind of story, because the teacher is unlikely to appreciate the flight of the child’s fantasy when it was asked to write a short story-description of one particular insect.
- The art of playing up the real.The meaning of this story is that the properties and characteristics of a real insect are taken and neatly woven into the composition. A butterfly, for example, can show off its wings and talk about how she dreamed about them when she was still a caterpillar. The same ant can modestly mention how he single-handedly dragged a heavy leaf from a tree to his home, to an anthill. Options for playing on the qualities of insects are great.
Some more ways to write
From the third person. In such a story there are no "I", "we", "you", if this is not a direct speech. These are usually narrative descriptions without expressing your own opinion. Example: "This is a beetle. The beetle is green and very large. He crawls along the branch and drags the leaf behind him. "
Рассказ о насекомых от первого лица: я - автор.This applies to writing-reflections, descriptions of cases from life or memories. It can also be the above story-description with a small addition: "This is a beautiful beetle. The beetle is green and very large. He crawls along the branch and drags the leaf behind him. I think it's very hard for him. "
From the first person: I am a bug. This item applies to artwork. This may be an adventure story on behalf of a butterfly, a description of a beloved beetle, and so on.
As a conclusion
Writing a story is a creative process, and heshould always be fun. In the event that it becomes a heavy duty and unpleasant duty, according to teachers and writers, the soul suffers.
It’s not so important how good it is.child story, because the main thing - what he felt during creation. And, if this process brought him pleasure, then with due diligence the baby will someday be able to become an outstanding writer!
