The day before the snow storm comes.....

It was the day before the snow storm comes, some moms discussed about this after school, there will be snow storms tonight and tomorrow, probably at least 25cm.  I need to listen to the snow line tomorrow morning to see if no school or not.

Strong winds already said hello to Moncton and it was so chilly in the afternoon, thought it was minus 3, it felt like minus 8? I guess.

Moses and the other kids ran into the playground after school, I let him stay for a while as usual.  All kids were playing with the snow or some were sledding from the small hill in the playground.

Guiltar teacher Jerry came at 2:30 pm, Moses learned a new song today.  It has been a while that I didn't push Moses to write or do his Chinese homeworks, I know he does not feel interested but it is regret if he didn't learn it. The best way is to read some chinese books with him rather than asking him to do exercise, I think it will be more interesting.

Moses committed to teach Micah some words , numbers as for his goal setting 2011, he tried to do this but it seems that Micah prefers me to do so.. .. Micah, you know you should give your mom a break!

The day before the snow storm comes.....

After school, Kids were so excited to play with the snows in the field,

He was reading his book.

Moses was playing games with Micah, let Micah show him what he asked.

He almost forgot all the chinese words so I read it to him and hope he can read by himself one day.



Moses had the guiltar lesson after school.



starting the regular lesson for Micah now!

 

He sat quietly and felt excited about his lesson.      He was reviewing the learning material from Puggles.

 

 

I cannot be too lazy now. Previously I only taught Micah some basic ABCS, numbers or new words , or read with him but without any systematic plan; I am glad that he is a good and quick learner, he can count 1 to 10 but I didn't teach him , I think he knows it from his brother, or some daily fun activities.

I trust the earlier education for little kids are base on funs,games and activities, not soley relying on books.

I decided to let him have a regular lesson everyday with a sysetmetic teaching plans . Moses went to pre-nursery school when he was two years in Hong Kong, there are a lot of debates about sending your little kids to school before three , four years old. In Hong Kong, some working moms have no other choices but sending their two-year old kids to school , I agree if they are being taken care of maids or grand-parents, they will be over-spoiled .

I always thought Micah is not a type of children who can sit properly and quietly at school to learn, nowI know I was wrong. Whenever he attends the sunday school at church, the leaders tells me he is doing very well in the class, he loves to sing, learn, color pictures, and listen to the stories.

Today, I started my regular lesson for him, I told him he had a class at 9:00 am and he was so excited, he sat very properly and listened to me.

Today his class covers :( total an hour )
1. learning A and B -
2. color : red
3. storytelling : three little pigs
4. color pictures
5. song: I love you .

He is not only a picky eater, but also picky audience, he only loves Barney, even I offered " Disney World Family", or other TV shows suitable for little kids, he refused!!
