This morning, hubs saw my work desk and commented,
"Are you not stressed with all these rubbish on your desk?"
"That is a few months worth of paperwork."
And I hate myself for letting it mount.
Surprisingly he said, "I help you clean tonight?"
I wanted to say,
Cannot, I have class with Tiger but oh well. Let's see what happens tonight
Here are some stuff we did officially as preschoolers (3 YEARS OLD)!!!
MATH
Patterning
SMART puzzles from FRANK |
More patterning with Duplo printables I shared on our FB page.
We used the unifix cubes
READING
Got this cool stamp storing idea from Prekinders
The original M&D box was so snug, it was difficult for him to extract the stamps.
PHONICS
Word Families {-at}
As in cat, hat, sat, mat, vat, flat, bat
We are using the books from Kohwai & Young since that was his choice.
Books 1 was letter sounds
Book 2 is what we are using right now.
Complemented Dr Seuss's The Cat in the Hat with some props.
We used a LEGO Duplo cat as a pointer (just for fun)
SCIENCE: Life cycle of the butterfly
Printables from Sparklebox
I used The Very Hungry Caterpillar storyline to complement the lesson.
I jogged his memory by asking him questions like,
In the light of the xxxx? What happens next?
What did caterpillar eat on Monday?
Prompt when necessary is our motto :)
He was super excited about the life cycle since I drew arrows on the floor using
a whiteboard marker.
He looked at me wide-eyed, "Can draw? Really?"
Abandoned Father's Day card for hubs ;p
CHINESE
He can recognise several simple words in Chinese but for some reason
he does not want to say it out loud.
He will point out the words a the book and say, "Teacher teach this one today"
???
I don't recall laughing at his Chinese.
*shrug*
Can't wait for him to bring home some flashcards from Bao Bei
(they get to keep the words they are able to read)

Still don't know how you do it all! Love the activities! How did you choose your preschool activities?? I can't decide exactly what I want to do after we finish Mommy and Me ABCs. I think I may have to go through the alphabet again for letter formation, but that sounds boring! I could do big themes (ocean, jungle, space) or go through the alphabet in science topics/experiment. How do you decide what to do each week?
My kid play the duplo last nite too~ :D
where u bought the alphabet and also the blue feathers?
how long u finished all the activities above?
Kaysha,
Alphabet in science topics sounds great! But I doubt tiger would get it ;p Maybe when he is 4 or so.
After he completed his letter sounds way before we completed Tot School, I was lost too. Then we fiddled with Montessori but it was too much work for a working mom to read the syllabus.
I searched and searched and decided to go with his interest :)
Maybe we should write a book together! Hihi...
Hi,
The alphabet is from ELC. One of Tiger's absolute fav things in the world. We use it in the shower too. It's foam, so when it's wet, it will stick to the walls.
The blue feathers are from Daiso. I bought it when we did Birds Week. Recycling only :)
That is some of the things we did in one week. If he likes certain activities, he will do it repeatedly.
