somama^_^

我又8到, 青衣宏福用 JP 的.

somama^_^

有没有mama 想用 Jolly Phonics or 有没有小朋友正在學 Jolly Phonics 呢??

大家來傾傾吧!!  其實我也有些問題想問下有經驗的mama 呢!

somama^_^

wfc,

我昨日去jolly faith 時, 同一個mama傾過, 我見她的仔仔blend 得很好. 我問她在那兒上堂好不好, 她說excellent, 仲豎起晒手指公添!!

她說, 她的細女現在4

jenniferpl,

Yes, I agree.  The cost is so high........hhhh!!  

I will, like you, teach my girl by myself first to see if she can pick it up.  If not, I will consider to let her join the course.......... and I may bankrupt....!!  But luckily, she is still v. young and I still have much time!

I know that a centre call 東山 have JP course.  It is located at Admiralty.  It may suit your need.

BTW, I have talked to parents at the re-union night.  They come from TST, Tsuen Wan & one from HK Island.  I didn't ask why they spend so much travel time to study there but upon their comment to the centre, I think they are really satisfied with their kids' achievement.

jenniferpl, Is it difficult to teach those sounds at home??  What material you used??  Can you share as I haven't make up my mind on what material to buy?

Thanks

somama^_^

hiuyui,

我想你可以像我一樣, 去上parent course first.  因為你可以看下個centre的人 (老師/ staff) & 地方, 又自己學下先, 或可估到將來小朋友喜不歡這地方 or programme.  

學東西, 除了知識外, 老師也是小朋友學習的對象!!

so far, comment to this centre and their course are good.

somama^_^

嘩, 無見幾天, 多了那麼多mama 來chat chat,  好呀!!     

jenniferpl,

你有15% off!!  so great!!  我在jflc 買的dvd, 要$280呀!!

不過你說不用買HANDBOOK, 我想想下, 覺得也可以一買.  因為入面有很多可以copy 出來給小朋友玩的工作紙.  如每個sound 的相關公仔, (s = snake; a = ant; t = tennis.......), 小朋友可以用來填色, 可以reinforce 下.  每個sound 還有一張字咭, 可以 cut 出來練blending or

A private class can be arranged, the charge is HK$300 per hour for 1 child or HK$450 per hour for 3 children. The place is at the child's home.
I'm considering to gather 2 to 3 kids for the class.

hi christkiddie,

first of all, i notice the topic of letterland (LL) at BK and look through all message there.... (i spend lots of time!!)  I was attracted by the funny characters of letterland.  I myself do reinforce some blending through the story too!!

However, when I go a bit further, I found that there are too many characters.  As different sound of a letter is represented by a unique character, I think it is a bit strange!!  

When I reconsider it on my girl's view, I choose JP finally.  Yes, JP's scope is not as wide as LL, however,

1. JP use systematice phonics which is more recommended

2. more simple to young kids (for kids below 4, too many characters really confuse them)

3. more funny as JP is multi-sensory

Yes, pls go through the topic of LL and all the reference web & old thread it advised & you can choose by yourself.  You may also go to the showroom of LL at TaiKooShing to have a look.

Hi bbqueen,

I will attend the 1-day training at the Jolly Faith Learning Centre.  It is located at the 畢架山花園商場.  It costs $780 from 10am - 5pm.

The training is provided for parent and teacher.  It will cover introduction of the JP progromme & the 42 sounds and corresponding actions & etc.

In details, you can refer to the web site of the JFLC at page 1,
--> " Course"
--> " Summer Course"
--> go to page 25.

Hi bb2001,

咁, 你住在那兒呀!!  看看有没有mama & kids 會join 到你la......

somama^_^

bbqueen,

我巳報了名, 貴都無計, 因為自己不學的話, 不可能教囡囡的呀!!

我去re-union 時, 有mama 說他們的training 不錯, 我上完堂再share 下啦!!

不過, jenniferpl 好似上過.

jenniferpl, 不如你 share 下啦!!

somama^_^

jenniferpl,

wow........  good sharing....

hehehe......for "ng", I may teach my girl by associating it with poo poo (ng ng ).......

          

somama^_^

jenniferpl,

我也想去wise kids 買materials, 不過我想上完jflc 的parent training 才決定買那些.

請問可不可以借用你的 discount coupon ?  

somama^_^

hiuyui,

以我所知, 她們的主要對象是老師, 所以她們一定會教一些教學方法 (輔助活動及遊戲) & 一定會介紹每種material 的用法. 而家中教一定有些分別, 我想到時我也會留心這方面 or 問多些這方面的問題.

另外, 課程介紹中, 說會介紹評估進度的方法 (進度測試及管理), 我想應該没問題的.

and, 如果你對她們還没有信心, 可以上半天課, cost $390, 只學 42 sounds & actions.  下次你再覺得有需要, 再學評估 & tricky words 都未遲.  因為小朋友都未咁快學到, 自己學了也怕會忘記, 我們的年紀始終.......

Hi jenniferpl & somama,

Thanks so much for your sharing and recommendations.  I am still thinking to join the training course on 30/7.  However, since I really don't know much about phonics, does the course provide info and help on how parents teach children at home?  Besides, do they teach when should we buy what level of materials during suitable time (how to justify children's learning)?

somama^_^

hi Gloria,

long time no see la...  have you moved??  You also have interest in JP??
