Four differences in junior high school
Difference 1: The amount of knowledge becomes larger
In general, the initial increase in knowledge span is very large. The total amount of knowledge learned in junior high school for three years is not even as good as that of high school. For example, mathematics, high school mathematics science students need to study ten books, each book has important test sites for college entrance examination. The amount of English words has risen from 1,600 in junior high school to 3,500 words +600 phrases. Therefore, at the beginning of the new high school, many students will have the feeling of “crashing the wall”, which is commonly referred to as the steep slope effect.
Difference 2: Gao Yi content is directly examined in the college entrance examination
Because of the large amount of knowledge in high school, high school and first day are completely different. The knowledge of the first year of learning is more to realize the transition of students from elementary school to junior high school. For example, some simple contents that have just begun to be learned in the first grade of English have already been studied in elementary school. High school is different. The knowledge of Gao Yixue is directly examined in the college entrance examination by 30%~45% (for example, mathematics is about 65 points).
Difference 3: Different ways of teaching
Junior high school teachers often use intuitive image teaching methods to explain repeatedly, teachers should spend more time to give students specific guidance. After entering high school, teachers pay more attention to analysis and less practice. Repeatedly speaking, many students are required to think independently. Moreover, there are many high school disciplines and many teachers. Each teacher has different teaching methods and different teaching contents. The learning requirements for students are often inconsistent. Therefore, only by adapting to each teacher's teaching methods can they promote their own learning.
Difference 4: Different learning methods
Junior high school students have a relatively simple learning method, are accustomed to "listening, back, and silence", are accustomed to written assignments, and are accustomed to relying on teachers. High school learning requires students to learn to study independently, read independently, think independently, analyze problems independently, and solve problems. The learning method requires flexibility and variety, and it is necessary to prevent and overcome the incorrect learning methods such as simple rote memorization, heavy memory and light understanding, redo reading light reading, and re-calculation of light concepts.
Two issues that need attention
1. Be vigilant - the steep slope effect of the connection between the middle and high schools
The general distribution of grades is that the scores are high and the scores are low, and the proportion at the middle level is the highest. However, in the initial stage of convergence, the first few exams in high school will have a 2/8 regular distribution similar to the social structure, that is, 80% of those with poor grades and only 20% of those with good grades.
The root cause of the “steep slope effect” is a result of the sharp changes in the knowledge and ability requirements of high school and the contradiction between the slow adjustment of students' psychology and methods. What appears outside is the “steep slope effect”.
At the same time, because the high school entrance examination has higher requirements for comprehensive ability, it is no longer the memory + application mode of compulsory education. Too much loose knowledge is not reflected in the test scores, so most students fail to achieve satisfactory results. The “steep slope effect” will increase the pressure on students, quickly lag behind in rankings, and even begin to doubt themselves and lose interest in learning.
Because the difficulty of knowledge and the ability requirements are steep slopes that are gradually upgraded, if they do not advance or retreat, most of the students will be at the foot of the mountain during the climbing process. At the beginning, the knowledge will be exhausted, and it will be difficult to continue in the subsequent climbing process. Adequate knowledge reserve and confidence.
Therefore, the first semester of high school must be properly previewed in the summer. In the process of children adapting to the new environment, parents should do a good job of psychological communication and guidance, so that children can smoothly transition and do a good psychological reserve. With better external adaptability, you can concentrate on learning the real "difficult" knowledge in the next semester.
2. Be aware - psychological changes are ignored
The period of convergence between middle and high school is a period of great physical and psychological changes. Some students are very adaptable, can adjust quickly, and have a smooth transition. Some students have developed some psychological problems for various reasons and have gone through a period of sorrow. Due to the change of environment, many students also have psychological phenomena such as loss, loneliness and weightlessness.
Lost feeling: Especially for those students who can take the key middle school, the original leading edge advantage has ceased to exist, and the "drop" is too big. Many students are very difficult to correct their mentality.
Isolated feeling: There are quite a few students who are not good at communication in high school. They don't know how to get along with classmates and don't know how to understand others. Although most of the students will gradually integrate into the group over time, there are also a few introverted students who have certain social obstacles. For various reasons, their “locking psychology” is constantly increasing, forming a psychological defect that seriously affects. Its normal learning and life.
Feelings of weightlessness: After I was in high school, I found that the methods of learning that used junior high school were not working. I was at a loss, and all the examinations were urgent. It was very lost.
