Jolly Phonics - My Teaching Experience
Some parents asked me if they "really" need to learn Jolly phonics in detail since their children have already started taking phonics lessons. Then again, there are parents who wondered if it is too early for them to know about phonics when their children are still going to playgroups.
I believe that school education + parental guidance = the key to success. It is critical that the parents know how to monitor the progress of their children and understand how to give them a hand when needed. On the way to acquiring a new language, children will have to overcome many hurdles. If they are stuck, they can benefit much from gentle reminders. For instance, I once had a student who just could not make the /th/ sound properly. But after I taught his mom the trick of lightly biting the tip of the tongue, the boy got on quickly because he had more chances to imitate. Parent's assistance can do wonders!
Furthermore, children tend to live up to parents' expectation. When they know that phonics is something their parents' care about, they will pay extra attention and be motivated to impress their parents.
When all's said and done, phonics knowledge is closely tied to language learning. Understanding how children acquire languages will help parents make good choice in terms of picking the right teaching materials/programs or even school!
Wishing every mom a successful early years education! |
