WHAT TV DOES TO CHILDREN

Of course, watching TV has its good and bad sides. From TV children get information about the world, they learn new words and begin to use them in their speech.
But TV also influences the development of a child in a negative way. When children spend all day in front of TV sets they cannot usually find time to read, to play games outside, to talk to their parents and friends.
Some teachers say that children who watch TV every day talk too much at school at the lessons. They can’t talk at home while watching TV and so they began to talk at school.
TV influences the creative abilities of pupils. Pupils who watch TV a lot can’t understand an easy story without pictures, tables and illustrations.
