Many parents face the problem of lack of motivation for study in their school-age children.
Instead of blaming the child, it is worth first understanding the reasons for his attitude towards studying.
They can be very diverse. For example, negativity towards studying can be caused by the atmosphere in the classroom or the teacher's work in the lessons.
To identify the so-called "primary source", go to the class teacher and ask him or her questions about how your son or daughter behaves at school. In which lessons they work actively, and which ones do not interest them.
During the conversation, test the waters: it may also happen that the child has a conflict with the class teacher.
Interest in a particular subject or studies in general is determined by the behavior of the teacher, the way he presents the material.
For clarity, you can compare lessons with dishes in restaurants. No one will bring out products piled up in a shapeless heap on a plate to a visitor. Instead, chefs create interesting compositions from them, and even if the dish contains products you don’t like, it is still impressive and memorable for a long time.
So the lesson should be interesting and memorable.
To "warm up interest", you can offer the child to participate in extracurricular activities related to the subject, or in competitions and festivals. Similarly, the desire to attend school increases due to active participation in the life of the class and school.
