<div class="text-justify">Hello friends of STEEMIT, I want to talk to you today about how to make mental maps to help the children to study. What they do not know is that playing is also learned, and this technique is great for achieving that goal. First I must clarify to the parents **what are mental maps**, and so they can understand the concept and put them into practice with the small ones of the house. Mind maps are diagrams or sketches that well raised through key words, concrete ideas, drawings will allow us to start from the central idea that we want to define. It is said that mental maps came to provide ease in teaching children, the idea is to become a memory game where a drawing or a word easily remind me of what I want to explain. <center></center> <center> [**Source**](https://www.google.com/search?client=firefox-b-ab&dcr=0&biw=1280&bih=915&tbm=isch&sa=1&q=mapa+mental+de+dibujos+animados&oq=mapa+mental+de+dibujo&gs_l=psy-ab.1.3.0l4j0i8i30k1l2.95761.99042.0.105425.21.11.0.0.0.0.1184.1184.7-1.1.0....0...1.1.64.psy-ab..20.1.1183....0.YM8ldfkjXWs#imgrc=vjS9O2ZeYf4FrM:)</center> It is said that mental maps came to provide ease in teaching children, the idea is to become a memory game where a drawing or a word easily remind me of what I want to explain. <center> </center> <center> [**Source**](https://www.google.com/search?client=firefox-b-ab&dcr=0&tbm=isch&q=great+idea&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwj87Jv3q_HWAhVB4iYKHS53B0sQhyYIJw&biw=1280&bih=915&dpr=1)</center> All part of a central point, for example the house and from there would ramify the subjects that have relation with the point to expose. The participant's creativity would have no limit. <center></center> <center>[**Source**](https://www.google.com/search?client=firefox-b-ab&dcr=0&biw=1280&bih=915&tbm=isch&sa=1&q=mapa+menta+la+house&oq=mapa+menta+la+house&gs_l=psy-ab.3...67427.67673.0.67926.2.2.0.0.0.0.0.0..0.0....0...1.1.64.psy-ab..2.0.0....0.mhCwyrmo3Ug)</center> Mind maps are so useful to help our children learn that even without the child being able to read, they can visualize the pictures or images remembering what is being taught. But many will wonder, what do we accomplish with this? The answer is simple, when putting this study system into practice the child can make it a study habit that can be applied at any stage of study (primary, secondary, middle, university, to the professional level). <center></center> <center>[**Source**](https://www.google.com/search?client=firefox-b-ab&dcr=0&biw=1280&bih=915&tbm=isch&sa=1&q=mapa+mental+y+la+creatividad&oq=mapa+mental+y+la+creatividad&gs_l=psy-ab.3...186771.192332.0.193030.28.18.0.0.0.0.631.1820.5-3.3.0....0...1.1.64.psy-ab..25.3.1818...0.0.Aj6RPAGBCaY#imgrc=lleoHY6Ly916HM:) </center> The best thing of all is that the mental map can be put into practice in any subject: Spanish, mathematics, biology, etc. The child with the passage of time will be an expert in making expositions only by applying this technique. What happens in many classrooms when young people have to expose, all the content is placed on a sheet of bond paper and they forget what makes things worse because all the colleagues who are watching the exhibition know that they are lost or deconcentrated by a word. The mind maps create the attention of the comrades who see another child stand with their cardboard and only drawings and ideas that will lead him to explain and make an excellent exhibition. According to studies, the good thing about this method is that both hemispheres are used. <center></center> <center>[**Source**](https://www.google.com/search?client=firefox-b-ab&dcr=0&biw=1280&bih=915&tbm=isch&sa=1&q=hemisferio+derecho+e+izquierdo+animado&oq=emisferio+derecho+e+izquue&gs_l=psy-ab.1.7.0i13k1l9j0i13i30k1.739496.747732.0.753261.28.19.0.0.0.0.1431.5094.3-1j1j0j2j2.6.0....0...1.1.64.psy-ab..22.6.5089...0i10k1j0i10i24k1.0.90wQ_x6O278#imgrc=Vqo1wtdQAty35M:)</center> **MOTY IT TO STUDY WITH A MENTAL MAP, I EXPLAIN HOW YOU**: ** It has to start from a central image. ** Here comes the brainstorming. ** You can do it like a sketch, like clockwise. ** Dry the creativity and invite him to make his own drawings. **The colors you prefer. ** A lot of imagination. ** Man to the work with the mental map. ¿**HOW TO MAKE A MENTAL MAP**? -In a cardboard let the child draw in the center that will be their main theme. -With ramifications that are born from the central drawing will annotate ideas or key words, will be secondary issues. - Let it explode your creativity by creating your own symbols, this will quickly make the drawing remind you of an idea. It does not matter that other comrades do not understand the image. **MENTAL MAP READS SO** *It will read as clockwise, that is to say it will start to (the one), and will continue in circle always towards the right until concluding to (the twelve). *The little one will present in his exposition his central theme and then he will pass to the ramifications that are the secondary subjects. * This can be put into practice in five-year-olds, starting with simple drawings or clippings and thus progressing. * From the age of 5 your child can use the mental map starting with simple drawings and progressing according to age to get to more complicated subjects. --- I hope these tips have helped you and you can put them into practice in a classroom or at home. **We read in a post, if you like to share.** translator that utlicé google</div>
