How to develop logical thinking skills in your child?

Logical reasoning and thinking are inculcated in early childhood. It is essential to sharpen these skills, as they are influential in driving critical decisions in life. However, not everyone will have good logical skills. A few may acquire it innately, while others have to work hard to improve this skill. Although, research shows that it is best if logical reasoning is developed in childhood. So, is there any proven method to enable these skills in our children? Follow this article to know more. 

Importance of logical thinking in children  

Through logical thinking, everyone is able to arrive at a conclusion. Logical reasoning helps overcome drawbacks, by establishing a pattern, relationship or facts.  Usually, logical thinking is defined as a sequence which leads to an interpretation. Mathematics is a highly logical subject. It demands your children’s logical reasoning to a great extent. Read on to know what works to hone logical thinking.  

 How to improve your mathematical skills and analytical thinking?  

Analytical thinking and mathematical skills will progress, as and when children are exposed to a series of logical activities from their pre-school. Here are a few ways to improve kids’ logical thinking.  

 Solve problems   

Depending on your children's capacity, ask them to solve a problem that you give them. By doing so, their critical thinking will automatically push them to decipher the issue.   

 Establish responsibility  

This task aims to encourage children to step out of their comfort zone. Give them a situation that requires them to think. Eventually children will learn the do's and don'ts of solving various issues.   

 Sequence worksheets and games   

Sequencing games involve arranging things with a pattern or an order. These can be pictures, objects, numbers or alphabet sequencing, and it helps children organise their thoughts and plans.  

 Sorting by shape   

A sorting game is an exciting activity for kids, as they are able categorise shapes, colours or objects by keeping various parameters in mind. As your child attempts the sorting game, question them to help them reason and understand the logic that will help them ace the game. 

 Treasure hunt   

A treasure hunt is all about finding something with the help of clues. Find out what children like and create a quest based on their interests. Make simple clues, so they will find it fun.   

If your kids are in kindergarten, pictorial clues will be easy. When they solve the clues, their thinking skills will be active, pushing them to succeed in the hunt.   

 Pretend play   

Pretend play is precisely like solving problems or giving responsibility. Instead of giving a severe real-world complication, you can give them funny and imaginary circumstances. They will find it exciting, and at the same time, their creativity will flourish.   

 Connect dissimilar ideas   

Offer your kids contrasting ideas to check if they can identify them. This activity will enable your children to think more and point it out.   

 Encourage decision-making   

If your children cannot arrive at a decision, help them by laying out the pros and cons of the matter. When they are in the same situation next time, your children will weigh the benefits and disadvantages themselves.   

 Prompt uniqueness   

Each child is unique. Hence teachers and parents should encourage children's individuality and let them pursue their tricks to fix an issue.   

 Inculcate and inspire creativity   

Children cannot get creative and improve logical thinking skills without their parents' and teachers' help. It is your responsibility to be inspiring and motivate them to be creative.  

Amity School, Dubai has an established curriculum that encourages students to think independently. Academics and developing crucial logical-thinking skills have been our primary focus since kindergarten classes. This is how Amity has been training students since its inception in Dubai.

Importance Of Moral Values in A Student's Life

There is no doubt that instilling moral values in students is highly essential. Ethical principles, regardless of how old you are, are the fundamental elements of a person's character. While these principles can be learnt at any age, school is the ideal time to do it. Undoubtedly, students are a country's future. Therefore, parents and teachers must inculcate moral values in their children from the earliest age. It will make it easier for children to respect, accept, and appreciate their society, teachers, peers, and parents. A healthy educational environment like that in leading schools of the UAE, for instance, Amity School, Sharjah, goes a long way in helping students learn the significance of moral values. 

 What are moral values? 

 Moral values are the ethical norms that direct a person in the right direction. Hence, parents should instill moral principles in their kids to deter them from going astray. A few essential moral values that every individual must possess include- Gratitude, Kindness, Integrity, Sharing, Empathy, Compassion, Cooperation, Respect, and Equality. 

 To make it easier for parents and teachers to inculcate moral values in children, creating a caring environment in the classroom and at home is essential. Displaying through example and practice is the best method to shape and develop moral values among children. 

 How are moral values helpful?

 1) Character building 

 Early exposure to moral principles like kindness, humility, bravery, and compassion helps children develop their character. It becomes the center of who they are and the basis for their moral convictions. This is why it's crucial to instill moral ideals in them while they're still young. They develop into the person you want them to be as a result of those ideals. 

2) Boosts Self-Confidence and Positivity 

Children who perform good deeds, such as donating to the needy or volunteering at social welfare initiatives, feel better about themselves. The thrilling feeling of being able to serve others and give back to the community helps to boost a kid's self-confidence. This, in turn, aids in the formation of healthy relationships. 

3) Shapes Attitudes, Beliefs and Determines Their Adult Behaviour 

 The new generation will go on to fill the most crucial roles that will either improve or degrade society, communities, nations, and the entire world. They will become future doctors, entrepreneurs, engineers, scientists, legislators, police, and so forth. The proper instillation of ethical beliefs should begin at a young age since the values you teach your children now will shape how they act as adults. 

4) Boosts Mental Strength 

 A child becomes stronger and develops beliefs as a result of moral principles. Because of the character they have acquired due to their ethical principles, these beliefs enable them to be strong and work hard for the results. The students are constantly faced with challenging circumstances, but their ideals provide the mental strength they need to overcome them. One of the most important lessons you can teach your children as a parent or teacher is how to be mentally strong and determined. 

 5) Positive behaviour in kids 

 Children must learn values like sharing, kindness, teamwork, acceptance, equality, charity, and justice to make decisions daily with objectivity and empathy. Society as a whole will benefit from actions as simple as displaying the courage to report a bully at school or dedication in reaching goals at work. In addition, they can build and sustain connections and set high standards for social behaviour, which will positively affect others. 

 It is essential to help students evolve into conscious, alert, and sensitive people who can use resources for the good of humanity in this cut-throat and advanced world. It also helps them develop mentally and morally to make wise decisions and respect everyone. Leading schools in the UAE, like Amity School, Sharjah, believe it is their duty to support and nurture the planet's future. By encouraging moral principles and character development, such excellent schools try to develop a student's physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual health. With such holistic development, you can be rest assured that your child will grow into a morally healthy and disciplined adult!

How to Help Kids Cope With Stage Fear

Stage fear is something we have all battled with as kids. This is especially true for kids who are introverts. They get easily worked up and distressed about facing a crowd. However, this is not something that kids cannot overcome. 

Parents and teachers should create a safe environment to encourage kids to work on their stage fear. They can teach kids meditation at early stages, which nurtures their overall progress and develops the right state of mind. As a result, they will learn to relax and stay calm.

 Tips to help children overcome stage fear   

What can parents and teachers do?  

Turn anxiety to excitement   

Generally, for the human body, fear and excitement are one. It is the brain that has to perceive it differently. So, what can you do to turn that into excitement? Cheerfully respond to your kids. Say “I’m excited to hear this”, and try other positive affirmations. While they try to understand your reply, children will eventually feel that their new journey will be fun and exciting.   

Listen to their fears 

Talking to your children will strengthen your bond with them. They can readily disclose their fears to you if they feel safe with you. Have an open mind to their problems and do not judge quickly.  Hug them, make them feel relaxed and try to give your advice. 

 Create a positive feedback loop   

Feedback is an essential part of a child’s development. While constructive criticism is significant, making them feel good and using positive affirmations can go a long way. Shower them with praise for their excellent behaviour in the beginning, tell them how their naughty actions will affect others, without criticising their personality. Never treat them harshly in public. All these will improve your child’s actions.  

How can kids help themselves?  

Children in middle school can experience stage fear too. To overcome this, they can perform a few leisurely activities by themselves to build a positive attitude. Here they are:  

Soothe with self-talk   

Self-talk can usually be harmful and hurt one’s personality. But journal-writing is also another form of self–talk. While journaling, you will get to put down your every thought into words. Go back to your writing and analyse it. When you do this, you might find where you have gone wrong.  

Practice Public Speaking   

The only way to master stage fear is through public speaking. The famous Irish dramatist George Bernard Shaw was once a beginner too, before he went on to become a great public speaker. Talk about your opinions in front of your family, friends and acquaintances, which will help you be bold when facing an audience.

   Watch and learn  

You can observe how others carry themselves on stage through videos. Note down what they do differently to stay confident. Try to incorporate those during small performance opportunities.

Prepare and practice 

When you have to give a speech to your teacher and friends, prepare in front of a mirror. Practice till you feel like you can deliver it with ease.   

Enjoy a healthy diet   

Our everyday staples can significantly affect how we behave and react. Have foods that make you happy and healthy. Avoid junk food whenever you can, sip water often and stay hydrated.   

Stay positive and build confidence   

Stay away from people who make you feel negative. Read motivational quotes before bedtime, and be inspired to do and feel good. While you get rid of all the negativity, you will glow with confidence.   

Strategies to help children with anxiety   

Children develop anxiety at various ages during their youth. It may be due to the new school or environment, exam season, social gatherings etc. Small children might form fears because of animals, insects, and heights, which gradually intensify as they grow. As a result, they will show signs of irritability, clinginess, bed wetting etc. In older children, one might notice a lack of confidence, increased angry outbursts, having trouble sleeping or eating. Make your children aware of their anxiety. Explain the physical effects of stress and reassure to them with politeness. If your children are small, distract them by going out often, give them books to read and show pleasing films.   

These are some effective ways to end your child’s fear and anxiety. Apart from academics, extra-curricular activities are great to develop positively.   

Extra-Curricular Activities at Amity Dubai   

Amity believes that extra-curricular activities are a holistic means to enable a child’s growth. These activities make children confident and help them act instantly, another way to end stage fear. Sports and the Arts are a prominent part of our syllabus for children to increase their sportsmanship and fuel creativity. Sports activities drive children to cultivate leadership qualities and team spirit and shape a healthy lifestyle ahead of time. Through Arts, they can learn how to express themselves freely. Amity strives to strike a balance that will enhance a child’s personality to ensure that they have a great future!
