Not all children like to memorize poems, as this task seems difficult and not entirely necessary to them.
Even some parents agree with this position.
However, this activity is extremely useful.
Why is it worth learning poems?
Development of imaginative thinking
All poems not only have an impeccable composition, but also consist of vivid images that are imprinted in the memory. When working with poetic text, children themselves begin to think more colorfully and even learn to use vivid metaphors and epithets in their everyday speech.
Benefits for memory
Even if the child memorizes the text mechanically, it will be an excellent training for memory. However, in most cases, children begin to invent various techniques for themselves.
This not only has a beneficial effect on the quality of memory, but also helps to “tune” logical thinking in general.
Expressiveness of speech
It is when working with poems that a child first begins to use intonation correctly, since it carries a semantic load, experts believe.
Therefore, children's speech becomes more expressive and musical.
Intelligence
Due to the fact that the brain works actively while memorizing a text, this helps to improve intellectual abilities.
Therefore, you should not treat such a task with disdain, because you can get a lot of benefits from it.
