Subject: A tactile memory Author: Jo [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 09:30:40 03/17/08 Mon We decided as a family to make a set of letters out of fimo, so that we could keep them and use them again for games. E became very good at shaping the letters. Her favourite word that she made was “ant”, however later on she needed some extra fimo for her model of an ant and so used the “n” from her word. She then shouted aloud, saying “look, I made a new word, at!” This then became a new game and we laid letters out, shuffling them around to make new words. This is essentially the same exercise as in module 1, but was enjoyed by E much more using the fimo letters. I continued to make the whole alphabet and E even reminded me that I would need two “e” , “o” and “l” letters for her to make up words with. I think that E learns far better with tactile experiences than by reading, or listening. [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ]
