Planting roots, Growing wings: Right start for Math
http://learningwithkyle.blogspot.com/2010/04/right-start-for-math.html
Planting roots, Growing wings. Right start for Math. I did not grow up liking Math. Maybe because I did not have a logical mind and Math just did not make sense to me. Or simply because I learnt Math by rote and never learn the principals of Math. So as to help a child develop a conceptual understanding of math.

Planting roots, Growing wings. There are two lasting bequests we can give our children: One is roots, the other is wings.". Parents.mothers especially, will always be the child's first teacher and what we teach them in their early years will be more important than things that they will learn through formal education. Afterall, this blog will always serve to remind me that I have the most exciting, challenging and most rewarding job in the world. Kyle at 2 years 7 months. Is a depiction of a mother and a ...

Planting roots, Growing wings. We did some mosaic art this week, decorating the plain photoframes from Ikea. These photoframes will be personalised with Kyle's own artwork, which I plan to let him give to our family members this christmas. The end product will be uploaded once it is completed by the end of next week. I made a 'mailbox' out of a recycled appliance box and Kyle enjoyed posting letters into the mailbox and pretending to be the mail man. We had fun with the science experiment Magic Milk.

Planting roots, Growing wings. Jesse Bear, What will you wear? The 3rd BFIAR book we started this week is Jesse Bear, What Will You Wear? We only spent abou 10-15 minutes on the lapbook and did not manage to do any accompanying activities with this book. Lapbook materials were obtained from homeschool share. The concepts in the book and covered in the lapbook were really simple, and it hardly intrigued Kyle. The only key take out that Kyle got from the book and lapbook was the concept of rhyming words.

All materials from this lapbook were taken from homeschool share. Initially I was ...
