Sensitivity to co-ordination of movement
新生兒因為神經系統未成熟，動作是不協調及隨機的而且大多數是反射動作。因為反射動作不受大腦皮質所控制…… 出生後的7-12個月，嬰兒的動作發展主要是，爬、滾動、坐及手足並用。而這些動作發展需要視覺、四肢及神經系統的成熟發展及協調才能完成。 而嬰幼兒學習/練習一個動作是為了下一個動作做準備，而動作的發展是為了讓BB有更多的機會可以向外探索，也有更多能力可以操作環境而學習(As what Montessori emphasis “Intelligence and The Hand” Absorbent Mind) Movement development is very important to the infant & young children. For the new born baby, he moves randomly without co-ordinated and most of his movement is reflex action. … Continue reading
Using sand to learn how to write chinese character (玩沙)
自從沙士一役及手足口病後，本地大部分的幼兒學校都不能玩沙，實在非常可惜。在玩的過程中，幼兒可以獲得很多知識。興幸現在工作的學校有沙這物料可讓我使用…… 我一直很煩腦怎樣教小朋友(母語不是中文)寫中文，今次就嘗試用沙(10年前讀書有學過用這方法但一直也沒有機會用>.<) 我先準備一個比較深色的tray(因為想寫出來後同沙的對比色大一點，容易看出文字), 再將沙子倒進。沙的分量只要剛好蓋著盤子就可以。 這個活動前我以先介紹沙紙字(一(yī)橫(héng)和(hé)一(yī)豎(shù))讓小朋對這個筆劃(stroke)有初步的概念，然後再在Mandarin Circle Time再把沙子拿出來介紹給小朋友及請他們續一出來嘗試，因為我班已經有24個小孩，最初很擔心他們沒有這個耐性等…..誰知道個個孩子坐定等，小女孩已經試完了，還在坐著問 “Can I have another turns?”。 看著孩子享受學習是我樂趣之一，要不然每天便會變得枯橾。 當日下課時清潔姐姐問我點解膽大讓他們玩沙，我回答他因為我相信我的小朋友會好好地使用他不會弄得很messy，如果真的話我會讓小朋友tidy up…… 有時家長為了方便自己，可能想家裡保持整潔而沒有安排這類活動給孩子，其實只要安排妥當，給孩子作好準備的話應該是好好玩的活動。 Prepare a tray of sand. Better use darker color’s tray to make the outcome more contrast. Start to write a stroke (一(yī)橫(héng)) Then … Continue reading
