Wanda 回答五岁孩子开始学习的建议

瑜珈

You wrote that you do not know where to start with your 5 year old. Your first focus will be two things.

1. You want to start developing ear training by playing "Slow word/ Fast word. The most important skill for a beginner is learning hot to break words apart and blend them back together. You can start playing with this without showing the word. You just say the word stretched out /m-o-m/. Teach her to say the sounds together fast and discover the word. When she says this one, she can get a special hug. You can then sound out /h-u-g/ and give her yet another one. This is describes in Step 2, Prep the Senses.

2. The next most important thing to do as a foundation is to teach her the phonograms. For a very young child, this can also be done by sound only. I used to pay a recording for my newborn. You daughter is old enough to give her stronger interaction. Teach her to shape the phonogram as she says the sound or sounds that it makes. Start by doing this with big motor skills like you see Britta doing on the DVD, "You Can Do It!"

The phonograms are the base for both spelling and reading. You need to alternate reviewing them for both skills. For spelling we say the sounds without showing the card and have the student echo the sounds and shape the phonogram. For reading we show the card and have the student say the sound(s).

As soon as your daughter has a working knowledge of the basic, single letter alphabet, you want to present the Consonant /Vowel page. This gives her the big picture of how the phonograms work. It sets the stage for you to introduce her to actual spelling dictation.

There is a reason that you have kept coming back to SWR over the years. It is the most natural way to teach a student. It starts with what is needed most, when it is needed and it builds progressively on that foundation all the way to 12th grade spelling.

There is also a reason that you have felt inadequate. For most adults this is a new approach. It is not the old well worn shoe. It is better for the student, but harder for the teacher to comprehend until she just jumps in and starts doing it. While you are doing these beginning steps with your five year old, you can work ahead building your sample learning log. This will help you experience what you will be doing.

If you would share the town where you live, there may be someone here who could come along side to guide you in these early days with the program. You may also be able to attend a teacher training class. They are just starting to form for the new year. Most classes are in the summer, but when there is interest in an area, they can come together throughout the year.

I'm glad that you want the best education for your children and that you are open to learn something different that will help make that possible. I had the same attitude and the Lord honored that over and above anything that I could have imagined. The overflow has been that many other teachers around the world have been helped.

要点：

第一，　训练耳朵，The most important skill for a beginner is learning hot to break words apart and blend them back together. 　开始学习　phonics　最重要的一项技能就是学习如何拆分单词中的音、再拼合回去，这个就是音素训练。口头练习，  playing "Slow word/ Fast word”，就是将音放慢速度说，cat,[k----a----t ]　再快说[kat] cat

第二个最重要的基础工作是教音图。５岁已经足够大可以同时教形和音。教发音的同时，要教如何写。用大动作，不要握笔在纸上写（孩子手还没发育好，太早握笔写字不好），可以粉笔在画板上，可以用手指在沙盒里写等方式。

The phonograms are the base for both spelling and reading. You need to alternate reviewing them for both skills. For spelling we say the sounds without showing the card and have the student echo the sounds and shape the phonogram. For reading we show the card and have the student say the sound(s).

上面这段话非常重要。音图同时是拼写和拼读的base，平时练习时要双向训练。为拼写，不给看音图卡片，我们说出音图的音，孩子嘴上repeat，手上写下相应的音图来。　为拼读，我们展示音图卡片，孩子说出音图发音。

女儿是一年级开始学的，我觉得年龄小，理解力还不够的时候，教学者不要有太多的期待与要求，孩子吸收多少算多少，今年暑假（2013）的时候，我原本是想带着孩子再学一次，可是实行了两週後，我发现孩子的理解力还是有点困难，我就暂停了，但是其他听故事吸收新单字的步骤还是继续。

这个月，趁着孩子刚结束一个故事，我再次带她回头复习SWR，我发现她的理解力开始有点不一样了，许多之前无法做的拓展练习也能做了，她也能理解了，所以，我先放下新故事的单字加入，转回头再复习一次SWR，看看这次能到做到什么程度。

群里有不同年龄孩子的教学计划么?
