28、ey always win in sports.Every child likes winning because it gives children a good feeling about themselves and makes them proud. But learning to lose is just as important as learning to win. Research has shown that losing games is helpful for children.Melody Brook, a therapist(治疗师) in Texas, says t
29、hat the experience of coping with(处理) loss is helping children to understand other children in the same position. A child that has never lost a game will not realize that everyone struggles in life.Losing a game is the only way for children to learn from their mistakes and think about strategies(策略)
30、to improve. When children improve their skills and win the next time, they do not only get better at the sport or game, but they also learn something new.

Why Does Losing Make Children Feel Anxious?DDoes Writing by Hand Make Kids Smarter?Do you often write by hand or type on a keyboard? Does your school offer any handwriting training?Maybe you think its the age of tec
37、hnology now and digital learning is popular. And typing is easier than handwriting. Digital learning has many positive aspects, but we also need to write by hand.The result from Vander Meer and her colleagues studies has shown that both children and adults learn more and remember better when writing
38、 by hand. They used an EEG(脑电图)to track and record brain wave activity. Young adults and children participated in their study. The participants wore a hood(兜帽)with over 250 electrodes(电极) attached. The brain produces electrical impulses(脉冲)when it is active. The sensors(传感器)in the electrodes are ver
39、y sensitive and pick up the electrical activity that takes place in the brain. The result shows that the brain in both adults and children is much more active when writing by hand than when typing on a keyboard. “Writing by hand creates much more activity in the sensorimotor(感觉运动的) parts of the brai
40、n. A lot of senses are activated by pressing the pen on paper, seeing the letters you write and hearing the sound you make while writing. These sense experiences create contact between different parts of the brain and open the brain up for learning. We both learn better and remember better.” says Va
41、nderMeer.In the debate about handwriting or keyboard use in school, some teachers believe that keyboards create less frustration for children. They point out that children can write longer texts earlier, and are more motivated to write because they experience greater mastery with a keyboard.“Learnin
42、g to write by hand is a bit slower process, but its important for children to write by hand. The hand movements and the shaping of letters are beneficial in several ways. If you use a keyboard, you use the same movement for each letter. Writing by hand requires control of your fine motor skills and
43、senses. Its important to put the brain in a learning state as often as possible.” says Vander Meer.Given the development of the last several years, we risk having one or more generations lose the ability to write by hand. In order for the brain to develop in the best possible way, we need to use it
44、for what its best at. If we dont challenge our brain, it cant reach its full potential(潜能). And that can have a strong effect on school performance.We should ensure children receive at least a minimum(最小量) of handwriting training. Now its time to use the pen and paper to do some writing.31.
