9. 需要讓孩子反覆背誦字詞卡嗎？
Do children need to repeatedly memorize flashcards? Why is rote memorization ineffective?

🔹 缺乏語境，孩子無法理解字詞真正的意義
單純死記單字，孩子很快就忘記，因為他們無法將這些字詞與實際語言使用連結起來。舉例來說，如果孩子背了「飛」這個字，卻從未在故事中看到「小鳥會飛」的句子，他很難真正理解這個字的用法。
🔹 記憶短暫，沒有長期識字效果
死記硬背是短期記憶，當孩子沒有持續複習或應用這些字，很快就會忘記。而透過大量閱讀故事，孩子能反覆遇見相同的字，建立長期記憶，甚至能自然識別和理解新的字詞。
🔹 影響學習興趣，導致孩子抗拒中文
許多海外家庭的孩子最終放棄學中文，正是因為傳統的中文學校只重視背誦和默寫，孩子從小對中文產生負面印象，變成「中文=壓力」，最後選擇抗拒學習。
A: Rote drilling of isolated characters on flashcards often backfires for three key reasons:
Lack of context: Memorizing “飞” in isolation doesn’t teach a child how it’s used in a sentence like “小鸟会飞” (“The bird can fly”), so the character’s meaning and usage remain opaque.
Short-term retention: Pure memorization lives in short-term memory. Without seeing characters repeatedly in real stories, children quickly forget what they’ve “learned.”
Reduced motivation: Constant drilling turns Chinese into a chore, creating negative associations (“Chinese = stress”) that lead many non-native learners to give up.
Instead, LeLe’s approach embeds characters in engaging, leveled stories—children encounter each character naturally and repeatedly in meaningful contexts, building deep, long-lasting literacy and genuine enthusiasm for reading.
