Into the book
What's the most powerful enemy that destroys the parent-child relationship? It's the fear of failure.
Most parents think that if their child fails even once, they will be in big trouble.
There are many parents who are anxious about what will happen to their child's life just because they failed to get a perfect score on a dictation test once.
This kind of impatience causes parents to nag their children, and in the process, a rift develops between them.
In fact, when a child is young, these cracks are often so small that they are not easily visible.
But as the child gets older, the rift becomes more severe, and by the time they reach puberty, it has widened to the point where it is impossible for anyone to cross.
---From "The Law of Relationships"

Self-directed learning ability is formed through the process of planning what to do in the given time and then putting it into practice.
It is only natural to make numerous mistakes and experience failure at this time.
This is because it involves correcting mistakes and overcoming failures to find a study method that suits you.
However, if you are obsessed with private education, there are few opportunities to go through this process.
Because the academy schedule is so tight and you only have to study as the academy tells you to, self-directed learning skills are not developed.
---From "The Law of Precedence and Failure"

The biggest difference between children who are good at English and those who are not is their reading skills.
When you ask children who don't speak English to read, they usually have a hard time being patient.
This is because, like a child learning Korean for the first time, they read by pointing at each letter with their hand.
But children who are good at English read fluently.
It is also read by breaking it down into precise units of meaning.
Why does this phenomenon occur? It's because children who are good at English read aloud a lot.

---From "The Law of Reading Out Loud"

The method of memorizing formulas and repeatedly solving problems is more suitable for upperclassmen or middle and high school students.
Forcing children to focus on problem-solving from the early elementary school years is no different from encouraging them to hate math.
In lower grades, you should avoid studying math only in your head as much as possible.
Just because you're learning math through your body doesn't mean you have to start with fancy teaching aids like Gabe.
If parents are willing, they can teach their children math while playing with simple materials such as Go stones, dice, and cards.
Through this, children can not only enjoy math but also develop mathematical sense.
---From "The Law of Manipulative Activity"

The first reason why your scores fluctuate every time you take a test is because of the difficulty of the test.
Math tests are more affected by difficulty than other subjects.
Top-tier children with excellent math skills are relatively less affected by difficulty, but middle- and upper-middle-tier children are greatly affected by difficulty.
Among boys and girls, girls tend to be more affected by difficulty.
Therefore, these children should consistently solve one page of a workbook that they usually find difficult, and acquire a sense of challenge and strategies for overcoming difficult application problems.
---From "The Law of Weakness"

If parents do not establish sound principles from the beginning regarding their children's studies, character, and lifestyle habits, they will constantly waver.
If parents are lost and confused, their children will inevitably become confused as well.
The most important task given to parents is to establish sound principles.
Parents who feel frustrated and lost about what principles to establish should definitely listen to the 22 rules the author presents in this book.

Second grade, the real learning begins!
How to Raise a Top-Ranking Child Without Special Aptitude or Advanced Private Education


When their children enter elementary school, many parents worry about whether their children will be able to adapt well to school life.
Because of these concerns, there are dozens of books on the market about preparing for elementary school admission.
So what about second grade? After the first year of adjustment, both children and parents' anxiety about school life gradually diminishes.
If 'adaptation' was the most important keyword in first grade, then the thing to pay the most attention to in second grade is definitely 'learning'.
Unlike the first grade when children were immature and clumsy but still received consideration at school, many things begin to change starting from the second grade.
Homework increases, and there is a big difference in the difficulty of dictation tests.


The author of this book emphasizes that 'real studying begins in the second year.'
This is because the second grade of elementary school is a crucial period for developing habits that will affect a child's entire life, attitudes toward learning, social development, and the formation of a study identity.
This book contains detailed information on the essential elements for a child to grow into a top student, grouped into three keywords: 'study habits', 'study skills', and 'study identity'.
In addition to the well-known importance of 'self-directed learning', 'learning environment', and 'reading', we can also glimpse the author's unique insights into 'pre-learning', 'securing play time', and 'relationships with parents'.


Children who grow up to be top students do not grow up with special academic talent or through excessive private education.
Rather, if a child relies on private education without establishing a foundation for self-study habits from the early grades, his or her true abilities will eventually surface.

Just as a young tree needs strong roots to grow well, it is important to provide a solid and firm foundation for learning for our children to grow well through study.
This book will be of great help in setting the direction for study needed in the second grade of elementary school, when real studying begins.
