Tell my two-year-old daughter a series of picture books about baby quantum physics.
I love physics, but I didn't expect a picture book about quantum physics to be told to such a young child. After checking the information, it turns out that:
After the birth of his daughter 10, Zuckerberg, the founder of Facebook, posted a photo of him and his wife reading a picture book to his daughter on his homepage, and the picture book he chose was "Baby Quantum Physics". The celebrity effect made this book popular all over the world, and the bilingual edition was also published in China.
After understanding the story, I still think it is not appropriate to tell my two-and-a-half-year-old daughter so early, even if I hoard books, so I put it aside.
When I usually tell my daughter a picture book, I don't like to read it just according to the words in the book. I like to guide my daughter to look at every corner of the picture book, describing one by one, and telling a corner of the same picture from another angle and statement next time. This is because I know that I am good at grasping abstract concepts, but I pay special attention to observing details. I don't want my children to look at a painting full of countless details and just listen to that sentence or two repeatedly.
But in fact, repetition is of great significance to the formation of language sense and the baby's memory of picture books. Therefore, we will always insist on reading the words in the book together with the plot (fingers are still pointing at the words in the process), and then expand the content of the painting. And usually if my daughter asks me why, after I explain it for a while, she will say "say it again" if she feels like it, and I will try to say it word for word, two or three times. Let many parents feel the collapse of "one more time". Knowing the meaning of this repetition, they will naturally be patient and willing to repeat. (If it's "one more time" for fun, agree on the number of times the rest will be together. At any time, I won't suddenly stop coming, but I will always say that I'm leaving first, and then activate this link in the remaining appointed times. I was in a hurry three times, and I was in a hurry five times. If I really want to leave, my tone will be different. I'm just saying I'll do it one last time. )
I also like to deviate from the story of the picture book from time to time, connect the things mentioned in the picture book with what my daughter has experienced recently, and occasionally ask some questions for my daughter to answer. My daughter sometimes gives very strange and interesting answers, sometimes gives surprisingly accurate answers, and even links other things in whole paragraphs. Sometimes if you think about it and say you don't know, it's natural to go on like a question. Because I believe that the mechanism of human brain learning and memory is to establish connections.
When talking about picture books, we don't always face them quietly. When I talk about something that needs to be explained, I may stand up and demonstrate with my body movements. Because I know that the more vivid and exaggerated the dynamic scene, the deeper the impression on children. This time is often the most exciting time for my daughter. Sometimes she will associate herself with the proverbs, actions, ballads and poems she has recently learned and perform them.
I am usually busy at work, and I won't talk to my daughter about picture books many times a week. But I think when I can accompany my daughter, I must devote myself wholeheartedly and make up for the time with quality, so when it comes to picture books, I will have infinite patience and can't keep up with the rhythm. And between my two talks about picture books, her mother has told her picture books several times. Every time I speak, I will find that she has made new progress. I haven't understood it very well since I was over one year old. I can't ask or answer questions at will, nor can I repeat them. Now I turn to a page (even if I haven't said it) and take the initiative to look at the picture and speak. If I don't agree with her understanding, she will make corrections. If I stick to my story, she will stick to it and explain it with a muttering sentence.
My daughter especially likes to map the small ones to herself, and she especially likes to map the family in the picture book to her parents and herself. She likes to emphasize the difference between a girl (her mother) and a boy (her father), such as when choosing the color of a chair. She also likes to emphasize the difference between adults and children: when things come, she always speaks according to her own judgment. Dad can, mom can, she is a child, she can't, she can grow up. If she can't have something now, she will say that her mother will buy it for her when she grows up. Even once, when she saw herself wearing a skirt and her mother didn't, she said to her mother, "I have a skirt and you don't." I'll buy it for you when I grow up. " She is also eager to grow up, and because I have nothing to do, I read to her, "Xiaoyu will go to kindergarten when she grows up, then go to primary school, finish primary school and junior high school, finish junior high school and university, and then go to graduate school after finishing graduate school." After finishing her doctorate, she will go to work like her father! " (Of course, I didn't finish this process myself ... Sometimes I add professors and academicians. ) So she is also looking forward to going to kindergarten. Every time I walk past the kindergarten and see many brothers and sisters playing in it, she always says happily that she has grown up and will soon go to kindergarten.
Of course, we usually teach these rules, but it will be particularly lovely to see her implement these routines as rules of the game. This is the grand narrative at this stage. I don't know how we will feel when we see her begin to deconstruct all this.
Therefore, when my daughter and I explain some natural phenomena, we will naturally explain why in the image language that she can understand half, and then occasionally say, "This is physics. You will learn it when you grow up." Sometimes I am reading a book about physics or math, and she comes to play with me, so I tell her father that Bobby is reading a book about physics. However, she insisted on turning it over and soon turned it over. She saw that it was all words and formulas. Occasionally, she can't read the picture, so she mumbles that when she grows up, she will understand it and drag me away from the book to play with her.
One day, when we were repeating the conversation of reading physics books when we grew up, I suddenly remembered the series of picture books of Quantum Physics for Babies and said to my daughter, "No, there are really physics books for your big little BB." Then ask her, "Can I buy you a physics book?" She nodded naturally and replied, "OK." Then he asked, "where is mom?" Her mother quickly said, "No, I'll buy it for you." I was speechless for a while, and my daughter said, "Don't buy books yet." He pointed to the picture books scattered on the crawling mat and said, "Yes." Then he pulled me and said picture books.
With this conversation, when I decided to buy a list of books, I added this series of picture books "Quantum Physics of Babies" next to my physics books. I also told my daughter in advance, and as a result, my physics book arrived first and opened in front of her. So she is more looking forward to her physics book.
After I got this set of picture books, I flipped through them and arranged them in an order in front of my daughter:
While sorting out, I also explained my consideration to my daughter. When explaining, I will only visualize about half of them, and the other half will use nouns that my daughter has never heard of at will, because I believe that nouns always have to be touched (heard in various contexts) to explain. Word embedding in NLP and word2vec are based on similar ideas.
The process of explanation will also let her see that I am hesitating, adjusting, considering some factors and finally placing an order. Because I believe that it is more important for children to see the process of forming an idea and the possibility of diversification and change than to use the authority of parents to establish a solidified idea, so that when children encounter some facts or statements that conflict with the idea in the future, they can independently re-establish a self-consistent understanding based on the process they have experienced. In other words, I will worry that my daughter will form a single deep-rooted cognition, and I will also worry that when there is a conflict of ideas between adults, such as parents, she will be at a loss. So I think the most important thing in education is the process of shaping cognition, not the result or conclusion of cognition.
After arranging the order, we began to talk about "baby's physics ABC". Every page of this picture book is a noun, a picture and an explanation, all in Chinese and English. I immediately found that I couldn't speak according to reading. When a child is older, it is different from prenatal education or when the baby is born. At this time, as long as he understands the text when reading and reads it coherently and smoothly, he can cultivate the baby through the beauty of sound. After the child understands the words, he can't read the words that the child can't understand in large chunks, but must find a connection point with the child's existing cognition to introduce. This is why this set of books may be difficult to apply to such a young child, because the book itself does not fully visualize these concepts, but barely establishes an image foundation with images, and the text is all textbook-style.
The first noun is "Atom" because its English is Atom, and this book is sorted according to the English initials of nouns, and each letter from A to Z corresponds to a noun. This will lead to incoherent topics, such as nuclear fusion on page 6, ions on page 9, photons on page 16, quantum on page 17, and yttrium on page 25, an atom with 39 protons, all related to microscopic particles.
In fact, atoms are easy to explain, because my daughter understood that atoms are the image of balloons as soon as she came up, so I began to talk about Le Ballon Rouge as protons, blue balloons as neutrons, and green balloons as electrons (thankfully, I checked, and the whole book talked about how these particles didn't change color ...), how red and blue balloons held together, and how green balloons revolved around them, all of which formed atoms.
Black holes are out of the question. Without the concept of gravity, how can light not escape? So I simply built a very dark, deep and large image according to the holes in daily life (meaning that a large range of things will be sucked in, and the black hole itself is only a tiny singularity), which shows that this is a celestial body in the sky, just like the sun, a black hole is a star that is bigger and hotter than the sun, and the sun will not become a black hole when it is old. By the way, I dug another astronomical pit for my daughter, and I will learn it when I grow up.
The charge is easier to talk about. There is some cognition before plus sign and minus sign, so it is not difficult to change them into plus sign and minus sign. The key is to have solid toys with plus and minus signs in your hand. Moreover, the interaction between the two charges can be role-played. For example, I am positively charged (take the plus sign), and my daughter is negatively charged (take the minus sign and play the small green balloon electron), so we are attracted together (hold together). When we all carry a plus sign (one of which is actually a multiplication sign), we are all positively charged, so we push each other away. In fact, after seeing the electric field line drawn on this page, my daughter shouted: "Lantern!" " So besides charge, we can also talk about electric field lines together. My daughter brought a marker and a whiteboard. As in the book, I drew positive charges in red and negative charges in blue, and then drew the electric field lines one by one with a gray pen. Sometimes we draw magnetic field lines together, but it may not be like lanterns. My daughter says she doesn't like magnetic lines that much.
Diffraction is "bypassed" because we attach great importance to bypassing water and manhole covers when walking outside. So I told my daughter first that diffraction means that I walk in front of you and then bypass you. If there is no diffraction, I can only bump into you. After establishing this basic action, we say that water waves and light waves can be diffracted (that is, the subject or object is given this action at this time), and then observe the corresponding phenomenon (only water waves can be observed at present).
Einstein was a grandfather with a white beard. He is one of the "greatest physicists". By the way, my dad bought the first five volumes of Einstein's complete works when he was a freshman. How thick are they and where are they now?
According to nuclear fusion, the atom with only one Le Ballon Rouge is the smallest atom, the lightest atom, and the hydrogen atom. Moreover, the book draws hydrogen nuclei, and there are no small green balloons, just like the nuclei spit out by grapes you usually eat. Then two hydrogen nuclei collided, "Bang!" With a click, a lot of energy was released (pointing to a yellow polygonal star in the picture), and then the daughter took it and said, "It's stuck together!" " "I went on to say," it became a helium nucleus with two Le Ballon Rouge (protons). "
Gravity will talk more. Let's talk about autumn and autumn. Let's talk about the earth attracting her daughter, and then start throwing all kinds of things into parabolas. Finally, let's talk about the moon. Because it flies very fast, although the earth keeps sucking, the moon just keeps going around the earth. Role playing can be introduced at this time. I am the earth and my daughter is the moon. I held her hand and attracted her, but she ran as hard as she could, just around me.
Heat is only combined with "scalding" because my daughter has learned to touch quickly to identify burns. "scalding" and "spicy" can be regarded as one of the earliest language feedbacks she learned about "danger" or "discomfort".
Mainly count ions, because the number of red protons and green electrons is different, so ions are formed, because some balloons leave this atom, and this atom becomes incomplete. At this time, we will talk about leaving and loneliness, and naturally turn to the "humanistic concept" that is easier to talk about.
Joule and Kelvin mainly talk about energy and temperature. Living in Kelvin, for example, is used to make clear how hot and cold the weather is. It is also mentioned that these are actually the names of great physicists. Because they made great contributions to physics, they named the unit after them. In order to clarify the unit, the centimeters and kilograms that my daughter had touched before when measuring her height and weight came in handy. When my daughter was more than 90 centimeters, she often took the initiative to measure her height at home because she was not tall enough to play some games such as bumper cars on the playground. She knew that she was now more than 96 centimeters. There are two weighing scale at home, one is ordinary, and the other can measure body fat and other indicators. Because I have been losing weight recently, I will weigh myself sooner or later. When I weigh, my daughter will help me press the button on the App, start the Bluetooth connection, and then come and read the numbers displayed on the weighing scale. Gradually, I will read from one number to another, and then skillfully use the last ten points, so I am familiar with "kilogram".
Liquid is just an extension. Drinking water and milk are both liquids. Take water as an example. When it is cooled to a certain extent, it will turn into ice and solid, and when it is heated to a certain extent, it will turn into water vapor.
Magnets Because there are some magnetic stickers on the refrigerator at home, there are also some alphanumeric teaching AIDS with magnets, and there are also magnets for small trains (lifted to the highest track by magnetic force, and then let the small train circle around the track by gravity). It can be found that the magnets of the small train will repel each other, and the magnets of the letters will repel each other, but the magnets and letters of the small train can be attracted to each other and both can be attracted to the refrigerator. So we can talk about the "iron" of the magnetic pole and the iron that ignores the direction of the magnetic pole. My daughter has seen the compass on her mobile phone before and already knows that the balcony is in the north, the kitchen is in the south, the sofa is in the west and the TV is in the east. She also knows that there are polar bears in the North Pole and penguins in the South Pole, so she can say that the earth is a big magnet.
Newton noticed curly hair, and combined with gravity, he could tell the story of Newton, the apple and the moon. After the completion of Newtonian Infant Mechanics, he could still say that Newton is the unit of force. Optics directly takes the book of optics and says it's optics. Show her the colors inside.
Photons are hard to talk about. When I put photons and quantum together, I was forced to talk about wave-particle duality, accompanied only by fluctuations in body language and statements of particles. I told my daughter that at first physicists thought light was a particle (Newton), but later they thought everything else was a particle. Light is a kind of wave, because it will "diffract" (bypass it, but I didn't expect it to be used here), and finally particles are found.
Relativity I just associate it with Grandpa Einstein, and then say that Newtonian mechanics invented by Curly Newton (ha, it's convenient to have a book in hand) can't figure out black holes, but Grandpa Einstein's relativity can. String theory, as long as the wave-particle duality in front of the hole is filled in, says that some physicists think that it is possible that photon quantum these things are particles and will "fluctuate" (shake), so they guess that they are actually small strings (find a rubber band to make a bullet), because they are too small, they look like particles, and because they are strings, they will "fluctuate" (shake) and diffract (shake).
Thermodynamics mainly talks about the next heat will flow to a cold place, combined with the air conditioning in the car (reversing). Uncertainty I just ran from room to room physically and asked my daughter which room I was in, until she finally blocked me in a room, but I still ran quickly in the room. I just introduced the vacuum. There is actually air around us, which makes my daughter feel the wind when waving her arms, but there is really nothing in the vacuum. The daughter's reaction is also exaggerated. She opened her eyes and said "nothing" in imitation of me in surprise.
The wavelength is the distance it twists. X-ray means reaching out and saying you can see bones. By the way, there are x-rays at home. Yttrium just feels atoms with many balloons. Zero degree is the coldest place. At this point, even the letter Z has been written.
This is actually the first lecture, and each lecture enriches the vocabulary. You can continue to introduce it in depth later, or change it. Different from other picture books, you have to do it again after you finish it. But "Baby Physics ABC" can't finish reading one book at a time because of many demonstrations and games. Speaking of 1/3- 1/2, the time for picture books is over, and the next things to do, such as eating, sleeping, going out or going to work. ...
The second time, I didn't talk much about optics, and continued to talk about Newtonian mechanics of babies with many balloons. From the beginning of this picture book, it is no longer a string of nouns, but a child's favorite form: a story with a protagonist and a plot.
What is better in this book is gravity and support. Like gravity, it is easy to combine it with falling, and then ask why the daughter sitting on the sofa didn't fall, or why the daughter who bounced and fell didn't continue to fall, so support was introduced. Then I began to give my daughter all kinds of "support" to help her up. Then, "less support" makes her fall quickly, and then "more support" makes her lift quickly. Often, when this daughter has completely entered the excited state of sports, she may no longer be talking about books, but may let me pick her up again and again, or circle around her, or play ball and frisbee.
Newton's first law is really hard to say. When no force is applied or the resultant force is zero, the motion state will not change. I will sit still or keep walking. I was obviously pushing when I kept walking. So I left inertia to the future and only talked about friction. This concept was introduced when my daughter climbed a slide or walked in the opposite direction. Some shoes/clothes/body parts don't have enough friction.
Newton's second law becomes that my daughter pushes me, and I decide whether to walk slowly or run to the other end of the hall very quickly according to the size of the force. Newton's third law is that my daughter and I push each other's hands and feel the force on each other.
Newton's picture books on mechanics have left me the impression that my daughter sometimes pushes or pulls a thing or a person and will say, "I gave XXX a force." Sometimes holding a plate will say that it gives the plate a support. Newton's three laws are still too early. Compared with these laws, the concept of baby's center of gravity and balance may be more useful, because she will use it when doing various movements or playing with cars, and the concepts of firmness, turnover and flattening will help her learn to understand that not everything is unbreakable or can't be pushed down or pulled over. This is a limited world, and it may be dangerous if it crosses the limit.
After studying Newtonian mechanics, we still didn't talk about optics or even look at the basis of physics. But first talked about the baby's quantum informatics, or because there are many "balloons" in it ... The main shortcoming of this book is that electrons change color and become colorful colors ... but there is nothing we can do. In this book, red and blue represent 0 and 1 respectively, and the red balloon is a bit.
The story of baby's quantum informatics is mainly about the information in a mobile phone. It needs 6.5438+00000 "red and blue balloons" (bits), but only 20 "color balloons" (bits) are needed, and 22 "color balloons" are equivalent to the information of 4 mobile phones. Finally, in order to store information in a molecule, all mobile phones on the earth are needed, but only one molecule consisting of "colored balloons" is needed to store it.
When telling this story, we are more playing the game of counting balloons. For example, one side of the equation is a "colored balloon" and the other side is a mobile phone. When talking about a lot of red and blue balloons in my mobile phone, my daughter took my mobile phone and imagined tiny balloons, which she could gesture with her hands. Speaking of 1 10,000, it took a lot of effort to present a million. From 1 block, to 10 block to form a row, to 10 block, and then draw this 10 block into a circle, and then I crawl around on the crawling mat and draw 10 block to make 1 crawling mat. You don't need a daughter to really understand 654.38+0 million. Maybe it's more because she saw her grown-up father and wanted to express it more.
I don't like the story of baby quantum entanglement very much. Mainly because entangled particles actually have opposite properties, such as opposite spins, and in the book, red and blue balloons are put in boxes and taken out separately from red and blue. And this story is full of all kinds of seemingly random and tortuous settings. For example, balloons can decide their own colors, but they must be the same color. And the book said that we knew the color when we first put it in, and later said that we didn't even know what color to put in this time. Although my knowledge of physics makes me very clear that these two situations are different and why they are different, I can't tell the difference between these two settings. If you can't even explain the setting of the question itself clearly, how can you render the question interesting? This story is particularly difficult to tell, and I feel that I have quantum uncertainty in my daughter's eyes. The only interesting thing in the whole process may be a vivid "tangled" paragraph, where our hands are intertwined until they are separated.
The story "Quantum Physics of Babies" is easier to tell. You can review protons, neutrons and electrons page by page, and then watch protons and neutrons embrace each other. Small electrons revolve around them along the track (train track) (combined with the story that the moon will not fall), absorb energy and jump on the track (followed by a small train or pushed by a small train), and release energy and jump off the track (followed by a small train), but the electrons jump. ) Orbits are like steps, and energy is quantized. The concept of quantum is also mentioned in the previous book ABC, which is based on the weight of mom and dad and their daughter (loosely), saying that dad is several times heavier than her and mom is several times heavier than her. Quantum is a kind of her, without half, smaller half or half.
Baby's optics seem to be the best in this series in the end. This paper mainly discusses that an object has color because it reflects this light and absorbs light of other colors. Transparency means that all colors of light can pass through and all colors turn white together. White can separate all colors, reflection, refraction and dispersion. Finally, talk about Rainbow Bridge. Optics is full of colors and arrows, rainbows are related to rain, and the book itself is vivid enough, and the acceptance of explanations is the same as that of other story picture books. When telling a story, the sense of order of optical magic is naturally established.
In fact, the whole set of picture books has not been completely read many times, among which "Baby's Physics ABC" and "Baby's Newtonian Mechanics" may be the most repeated, and the process of telling is very immersive and joyful, and it also leaves various shallow marks in daily life. I seldom take the initiative to pick up these picture books and tell them to my daughter, mainly because my daughter remembers her picture books and chooses which one we tell. Often daughters will choose the most humanistic picture books, good habits picture books, story picture books and so on. And often she chooses physics picture books because when she asks why, she suddenly involves physical concepts such as force and magnet.
In addition to explaining picture books at home, I always insist on driving my daughter and her wife to early education (now I mainly take creative classes). Every time besides waiting for her to show her finished work after class, she always tells two or three picture books in the reading corner of early education before going home. During this time, my daughter chose some science books, such as Earth, Human Body and Flowers. In fact, this book itself is for older children, with a lot of words and rich content, but the picture is also very vivid, with many details and angles, and the effect of telling my daughter is also very good. This series of picture books for infants, Quantum Physics of Infants, has indeed been simplified, but it is precisely this simplification that makes the story itself slightly simple, but it is not necessarily better understood. In fact, for young babies, it is more about contact and experience. When you come into contact with some nouns and expressions, you will experience some order, interaction and association, but you will never understand them anyway. So why not feel more complete, just a more vivid version?
Generally speaking, although this is not necessarily a set of physics picture books tailored for infants, nor is it necessarily suitable for many parents who don't have too deep physical background knowledge to tell, I still like the time brought by such a set of picture books, and at the same time, I have put down my original high expectations for popular science or science. Like hundreds of other picture books, the picture book itself is just a material and a medium. It is important to share your feelings about the world with your baby with concentration and heart, and feel the morning-like family happiness in interaction.
