My Peter & Jane

There was one time that mommy has given up on teaching Eeanne reading the Peter & Jane, that was during Eeanne 2y.o..Think mommy has been very "kiasu" during that time and was quite disappointed on Eeanne's response whenever mommy shown the P&J book, Eeanne will just looked around distracted, showing totally no interest or sometimes will even say "mommy.....I'm tired"..:-/

Kids are really good in hearing, initially mommy thought Eeanne really can recognize those words in the book, but when mommy wrote down each word to show Eeanne, she has no idea at all, then only mommy realized that Eeanne was actually learnt by hearing not recognizing.

Thus mommy changed the way on teaching Eeanne, instead of being so serious in reading, we make it a more casual reading in the car during the morning ride to mama's house.

Surprisingly, by using this method, Eeanne suddenly shows the interest of reading the P&J, and by only 2-3 days, she has mastered well on P&J 1a & 1b. Yeh!

Thus, mommy slowly upgrade Eeanne to 2a and it is really amazing to look at the speed of Eeanne catching up the new words, once the momentum started, the learning power keep generating at an incredible beat.

So last month early Aug, Eeanne has graduated her 2a!!! To ensure this round Eeanne is really learn by words, mommy kept writing all the words on paper and tested Eeanne (sound pressuring....hehe) and Eeanne passed all the test...bravo!

Hey...my first reading book of Peter & Jane.

Now within a month, Eeanne progresses to 2b, 3a, 3b and now is in the 4a stage!!..mmm, mommy is really proud of you, darling....

Somehow Eeanne's patience has reach a limit, once finished the 3a, her speed has slow down and started to show her usual laziness attitude. Perhaps the 4a truly has too many new words to catch up and reduce her interest.

Maybe mommy need to let Eeanne to have a break before boosting up her interest again...:-)
