DOES YOUR CHILD STRUGGLE TO REMEMBER WHAT THEY LEARNT AT SCHOOL? 

Some parents complain to me that their children don’t remember things. 

So today I’m going to share some tips on how to help your children remember things they have learnt. 

From my experience as a teacher, I notice that children tend to forget things that they do not practice often.  

So one of the things I do with my students before I teach them a new topic is to go over the previous learning so that they can remember what they’ve learnt before, before teaching them new topics.

 When your child returns from school each day you can ask your child what they learned in school each day. 

By asking them what they learn you are helping them to recall their experience in their head and then put it in words. 

Repetition is key: Another way you can help your child remember stuff is by going over what they learnt previously with them. 

If your child can’t remember then you can speak to their teacher and ask them yourself. Most teacher will be happy to share this with you.

When you’re engaged with your child’s learning, they are more enthusiastic about their education and want to make you proud. 

No matter how small or big their achievement that day / shows that you care. 

The other thing you can do is to break tasks into smaller, manageable chunks and use pictures.

For example: 

Let’s say you are trying to teach your child how to spell -(anger,  television or cycle …) 

You can break up the word anger into an/ger, television into te/le/vi/sion, and cycle into cy/cle.

You can also play memory games as a fun way to sharpen their memory (examples of free online memory games are; 

If all this does not work, get him tested for a learning disability. 

Remember, every child is different, and what works for one might not work for another. It’s all about finding the strategies that best support your child’s needs.

Please be patient with them 🙏🏾❤️❤️

I hope this helps 😊
