Already from the first grade, kids are taught to write their first compositions. In elementary grades, simple topics are used for the child's reasoning: "How I spent my holidays," "My favorite hobby," or "Description of mom."
But despite the simplicity of the topics, writing an essay for a child is sometimes difficult. To understand all the nuances of this task for both the child and the parents, we advise you to familiarize yourself with the following writing rules. And in order not to be unfounded, as an example, let's take an essay on the topic “Description of Mom”.
What does a child need to know?
Some tips for writing similar essays:
- With each school year after the end of the "junior" school, the required amount of essay increases. In grades 1-4, a child's essay should be approximately 0.5 pages long.
- Even in elementary school, an essay should have three parts: introduction, body, conclusion. It is enough to give 1-2 sentences to the introduction and conclusion.
- Always write an essay on a draft so that you have the opportunity to correct anything.
Now let's move on to the description of mom.
Intro and main body
What should be the introduction and body of the essay? First of all, the child must designate his hero in the essay - this will be the introduction. Example: “My mother's name is Olga Vladimirovna. She works as a kindergarten teacher and loves children very much.”
You can also start the story in another way. “My mother is the closest person I have. And I want to talk about why I think she is the best mom in the world.”
The student must make up the image of his mother. “My mother has blonde long hair and very beautiful brown eyes. When she gets angry with me, they even darken a little, but only for a moment - my mother is very kind and almost never scolds me.”
Next, let's proceed to the main part. It can contain not only an external description of the mother, but also pleasant memories or funny events. “I remember my mother from about the age of three. What I remember most vividly at that age was playing hide and seek with her.”
One day I decided to play with a cat. Then I was only 4 years old. I took a large jar and tried to put the cat in it. And just in time, mom appeared in the room! But she did not scold me, but only laughed at the surprised look of the cat and explained that it was not necessary to do this.”
Conclusion
The description of the mother may end with the child's statement about the role she plays in the life of the student. “My mother always helps me cope with any difficulties, for which I love and appreciate her very much.”
Also, a child's description of a mother may sound like a conclusion: "I think every child loves his mother very much, despite all the small quarrels that sometimes arise in every family."
Here in such simple ways you can write a full-fledged and interesting essay about your mother. An important tip for parents is to help your child with homework, but do not do the work for them. After all, only with experience and practice will a child be able to independently write an interesting, and maybe even a funny description of his mother, which will be worthy of high praise.
