My DD (6) always gets b & d mixed up - I will try this way with her - thanks :T
lol my son (6) always writes the word "bed" on the back of the paper so he can refer to it!"One day I realised that when you are lying in your grave, it's no good saying, "I was too shy, too frightened."
Because by then you've blown your chances. That's it."0 -
My son is in reception and isn't 5 until July, being one of the youngest has had a big affect on his confidence and his view of his abilities.
One of the sites he loves is
http://www.uptoten.com/kids/boowakwala-home.html
It's lovely and ideal for reception age kids. There's 100's of games, lots of educational ones but they don't feel like work if you know what I mean!
Keep with the artwork, that will really help her pencil control and will make writing easier when she is ready for it. Just go at her pace, when she's ready she'll go for it.
Good luck!0 -
Hi there,
I teach children at an international school in Japan.
If I were you I would organise a meeting with her teacher to discuss:
- details of areas she is struggling in
- what teaching techniques work best with her (e.g. is she a visual/auditory or kinesthetic learner?).
- What advice does she have on lessons you can to do at home to complement the classroom curriculum.
I'm sure her teacher will be grateful of your interest and support - I am always happy to work with mums to improve my students education.
Good luck,
