Remember, Don’t Bore Your Child

You should also remember the supreme rule of not ever boring the child. If the child becomes bored with this, most likely you are going too fast. He should be learning quickly and asking you if you can keep on playing this game. If you have done it right, he will be learning around five new words every day around the middle of this. If you have sufficient ability and the enthusiasm it is very possible your child will learn more. After a child has learned the flash card “me” words, you will need to be prepared for the next step of the reading process. By now you should have already done the two most difficult steps of the reading process. If you have had success up to now, it will be easier to avoid that your child learns in just a little bit of time from now. When you get to this pint, both the mother and the father as well as the child will need to take on thi s reading game with a lot of pleasure and expectation. Keep in mind: you are bringing your child into a love towards learning that is going to multiply throughout his lifetime. More precisely, you are reinforcing an anxiety to learn that will not be repressed, but that can become deformed if it is guided into the wrong or even negative ways for the child. Play entertainment with joy and enthusiasm. You are already prepared to introduce the names of familiar objects in the environment of your child now.

The vocabulary “home” is divided really, into diverse secondary vocabulary. These groups are those of possessions, foods, animals and deeds. At this point the child will need to have a reading vocabulary between twenty five and thirty words per day. Once he has reached this point, it is very tempting sometimes to go over the old words over again. However, do not fall into this temptation because your child will just think they are boring. Children are all for learning new words but they do not like to go over the old ones over and over again. You can also feel the temptation of testing your child. Don’t do this either. Exams cause invariable tension in the situation on the part of the father or the mother and the children can easily perceive this tension. It is easy to associate the tension learning and the disagreeable situation. Do not forget to show your child love and let him know how much you respect him in any opportunity you get.
