1
15 years ago, I walked into a classroom as a first -year preschool teacher.
2
Ambitious and eager to impress, I created this Excel document to track the things I thought mattered most for my students.
3
Letters, numbers, shapes, and colors.
4
Looking back though, I wish Instead, I had leveraged the power of brain building interactive play.
5
The back and forth interactions, the serve and return, the alternating comments,
6
questions, gestures between children and adults when they play together, that's what helps build neural connections in the child's brain.
7
And in particular, they build the brain's prefrontal cortex, the part that manages emotions,
8
solves problems, makes plans, all things that children have to do when they play.
9
The research community's support of play is so resounding, I would expect to see children in nearly every household, every preschool and kindergarten classroom,
10
playing for most of their waking hours.
11
But that's far from reality.
12
So what's going on?
13
Our best intentions are getting in the way.
14
Our hyper focus on our children and our students' success is backfiring,
15
and it's exacerbated by two forces I see impacting the large majority of parents and teachers.
16
First, the need for immediate gratification and quick results.
17
We often revert to fact -based teaching because we see pretty immediate results that affirm our efforts.
18
Whereas we can't see the connections in the child's brain
19
that fire when they finally get that wobbly black tower to stay standing.
20
The immediate result of something like our child learning a new letter, it gives us this dopamine rush.
21
We subconsciously begin to prioritize that type of teaching.
22
The second force I see negatively impacting play -based learning is that we, as grown -ups, parents and teachers,
23
just don't always like hearing that play -based learning might require some of us because that means it will take time,
24
energy, and skills that we don't think we have.
25
But not only is it worth our time, it can be done in really small doses.
26
So take this simple example of bath time.
27
If I'm a busy mom who has a few extra dollars to spend, I might pop my kiddo into the tub.
28
Remember that buying bath toys has been on my never -ending mental to -do list for weeks.
29
So I whip out my phone and I use
30
that five minutes to go over to Amazon and buy the top -rated bath toys.
31
And you know what would be way better than scrolling Amazon and even better than those bath toys?
32
Three things that I can almost guarantee you have in your home.
33
Measuring cups, kitchen sponges, and you.
34
Because a couple of household materials dropped into the bathtub and this mundane routine becomes fun, energizing bonding time.
35
And bonus, instead of the toy telling your child how to play, your child's brain has to do the heavy lifting.
36
And that's that superfood for the brain.
37
Over the past 10 years coaching parents, I have heard over and over again that parents don't feel good enough at their job at parenting.
38
When it comes to our children's learning though, we don't have to be the perfect Etsy parent or the perfect Pinterest teacher.
39
We have to prioritize interactions and be okay with them being imperfect.
40
It may seem silly to admit that we don't feel good at playing with our kids, but as adults it's not always intuitive.
41
Sure, most of us played a lot when we were little.
42
We'd tie the blankets around our neck and bound around the house like superheroes, but as we grew up that type of play wasn't encouraged anymore.
43
A couple of months ago my colleague
44
and I were leading a workshop for parents and teachers
45
and we brought materials like shaving cream and plastic straws
46
and buttons and pipe cleaners and just ask the parents and teachers to play to create.
47
Everyone froze then slowly but surely people started to create
48
and by the end of the session their faces were lighting
49
up as they shared their creations with the rest of the group.
50
It It reminded me that as adults we have to let go of our expectation that we get it right.
51
You have the power to have an enormous impact on their brain development.
52
You are helping build the network of neural connections that lay the foundation for all of their future learning.
53
Education is the ultimate idea worth spreading.
54
That's why we've launched Innovate TED, a program that helps educators develop their brightest ideas and share them with the world.

おすすめ動画

この動画で身につく英語スピーキングのポイント

「遊びが子どもの脳に与える影響」について語るこの動画は、日常的な会話のリズムや自然な表現を学ぶのに最適です。特に、shadow speak(シャドースピーチ)の練習により、流利な発音とスピードのコントロールが向上します。また、IELTS スピーキング対策にも役立つ「説得力のある話し方」や「具体例を挙げる技術」を身につけることができます。

聞き取りに注意すべき音のつながり

動画の中では、日常会話でよく見られるリンキングやリダクションが多く使われています。例えば、「it's not always intuitive」は「its not awlways inchooitive」のように発音され、「don't have to be」は「don't hafta be」となります。これらの音のつながりを聞き取り、shadow speechで真似ることで、自然な英語のリズムを体得できます。

ネイティブのように話すコツ

ネイティブスピーカーのようなリズムとストレスを身につけるには、動画の中の発言を繰り返しshadow speakで練習しましょう。特に、「we don't have to be the perfect...」のような否定文のアクセントや、「three things that I can almost guarantee」のような長い文の息継ぎが重要です。また、「superfood for the brain」のような比喩表現を使うことで、話し言葉に生き生きとした雰囲気を加えることができます。

動画で英語学習をする際は、単に聞くだけでなく、自分の口で発音してみることが鍵です。英語スピーキング練習にこの動画を活用することで、日常会話のスキルだけでなく、子どもの教育についての考え方も新たに発見できるでしょう。

シャドーイングとは?英語上達に効果的な理由

シャドーイング(Shadowing)は、もともとプロの通訳者養成プログラムで開発された言語学習法で、多言語習得者として知られるDr. Alexander Arguelles によって広く普及されました。方法はシンプルですが非常に効果的:ネイティブスピーカーの英語を聞きながら、1〜2秒の遅延で声に出してすぐに繰り返す——まるで「影(shadow)」のように話者を追いかけます。文法ドリルや受動的なリスニングと異なり、シャドーイングは脳と口の筋肉が同時にリアルタイムで英語を処理・再現することを強制します。研究により、発音精度、抑揚、リズム、連音、リスニング力、そして会話の流暢さが大幅に向上することが確認されています。IELTSスピーキング対策や自然な英語コミュニケーションを目指す方に特におすすめです。
