Charlie and David and I have been sitting down working with him on his
ABC's and numbers now for a while as we had taken him out of school
for a bit as the funds where not there to pay for it. But I see that
he is wanting to learn as he is always asking questions and this last
week he wants to count everything. Which I am thinking is a good sign.
So today I thought while he was over at my sisters I would look around
and put together some stuff we can work on next week.
Since I have never taught anyone this young I was thinking I would
start with the letter A and work on it for at least two weeks. To
Charlie though a A is a tee pee as he says this is what it looks like.
I figured I would try and cook some foods that start with A's as well
like apples and applesauce. Do you have any another suggestions on
things we can cook? I figure this is also a good way to get him to try
foods he would not normally eat and that we can get him to help us
prepare them.
I am also thinking of things he can do in the house that starts with
A's so he sees how it all ties in.
So if you have any suggestions on chores that start with the letter A
please let me know.
Then another question I have is should I just work on the letter A or
is it ok to add in a number like 1 or will this confuse him?
So Please if you have a toddler and you work with them at home help me here.
Do you have sites you would suggest?
What do you think about the worksheets I found below? Are these good
ones to start with?
Do you let your children work on the computer and if so which sites do
you use and why? Which ones do you stay away from and why?
Do you have any shows on TV or DVDs that you think I should look into?
