樂最近常哼這首歌

連Ms. Senzsi 都在連絡本寫著：

Lawrence is very interested in Sesame street- especially Cookie Monster. He always wants to hear the "C is for Cookie"song

Link to below website, and find C for Cookie song!

就是這首歌

1Y3M Zoe 發展大觀

日子過的好快！

小妞zozo 已經滿1Y3M即將邁入16M囉～

身高超過 80cm

體重維持在10.5kg左右

牙齒目前上排4顆/下排4顆

<食>

最不用讓人擔心的就是她的好胃口！

依舊維持, 一天3餐加睡前的210c.c 的牛奶

主食以高湯吻仔魚粥為主

搭配百變的食物泥(參考自百歲醫生教我的育兒寶典)為輔

加上不時的水果,餅乾小點心無限供應

<語言發展>

我們都一致認為小妞的認知能力比哥哥來的強上許多

目前她最會講的還是 Dede (Daddy), Mama, 姨嬤(保姆, 外婆家的姨婆）

最好笑的是她叫哥哥時也是說dede,

要吃東西時一律說mum.. (一招闖天下！）

名詞大概只有花/鳥說得最清楚了！（因為叔公跟嬸婆每天都會帶去散步時教會的！）

東西不見or人不在了一併說momo＋手語 (沒了！）

<動作發展>

手部的細部動作很棒 （跟哥哥比起來）

尤其是在拿東西吃的時候, 左右手替換著拿也沒問題！最後一口也可已精確地塞入口中, 不會花花落（這點實在很優～）

平常時最愛趴趴走

而且愛爬高爬低的高度流動能力常讓人嚇出一身冷汗

哥哥的stokke餐椅也可上下自如～

平時最愛人家放音樂

音樂一下, 熱舞靈魂便上身！（甩頭, 抖肩都難不倒她～）

<作息>

白天小睡1.5~2hr

晚間約7:30~8:00就寢, 正常狀況可一覺到天亮！

算是完美寶貝！

Lawrence @ Happy Kids-- 1st homework

Upcoming theme of preschool class is "Home and Family".

Thus, each child should bring home a poster size piece of paper to make their Family banner with. There are some direction for making family banner:

1. write family name on top

2. trace each family member's hand and write the name on or under it.

3. with your child, decorate the hands-- use crayons, markers, stickers, paint, photos-- whatever you and your child want.

We actually took some days to finish Lawrence's first homework!

I discussed with Lori the layouts of poster, and how are we goin' to decorate

the traced hands.

And below is our final work! I'm so proud of my Lori, because he did almost 90% of works! except some notes that I added aside.

Lawrence @ Happy Kids-- Pick a Pattern (Math)

Today the teacher hands out a sheet about early building up the concepts on math.

I think it's really good one, and would like to share with you~

PICK A PATTERN

Have you ever seen your child hop down a stone walk, being ever so careful to step only on every so many stones? That's a pattern in action! When your child creates or discovers patterns, he or she is exploring mathematical relationships. Looking for patterns can help your child make sense of mathematical problems. For example, skip counting by tens creates the pattern 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, and so on. Your child can use this understanding to solve related math problems such as, "if one lollipop costs 10 cents, how much will five costs?"

樂在跳計數方面沒什麼問題;

主要是因為樂對於等差的概念很強

所以, 你只要跟他說, “樂從2,4,6,8,10 開始數, 數到100“ 他便可以一直往下數...

尤其, 自從今年暑假我讓他看了一片 九九乘法的DVD之後

他對數字的概念更強了,

從1~10幾乎都可以一直數到1000.... 如果他有更多的耐心的話還可以一直數下去！

至於"if one lollipop costs 10 cents, how much will five costs?"這一題應用題

直接念英文給他時, 他只回答了一句：what's "cost"?

翻成中文之後, 他馬上就回答 “50"了～

Moving Patterns............................................

When you take a walk with your child (or just head out to the bus stop), take turns making pattern for the other to replicate. For example, hop on one foot twice, then hop on both feet three times. Repeat to make a pattern.

樂的四肢協調還沒那麼優,

所以我覺得這部份是可以再加強喔～

Guess My Pattern..........................................

Give your child an assortment of dried pasta shapes, stickers, or pieces of cereal. Let him or her start a pattern with the pieces. Add on to your child's pattern, then switch places: You make a pattern for your child to finish.

這是一個很好玩的練習！尤其如果要加強邏輯推理的思考能力的話！

之前, 我常和樂玩 “紅黃藍 紅黃藍 紅, 然後接什麼？

當然用物品玩接力也會是以一個不錯的好選擇喔～

Number Connections....................................

Look for opportunities for your child to skip count. Socks to be sorted, shoes in a line, mittens in a basket, legs on chairs, panes for a window... they're all invitations to count by twos, fours, tens, or some other number. As your child counts, help him or her discover patterns or regulations. For example, your child may not be able to count by fours, but he or she may discover that the chairs at the table have four legs each.

利用日常生活用品來幫助孩子練習skip count是個不錯的點子呢！

091209 My kite runner (馬場河濱公園放風箏)

週六下午晴

我們一家四口帶著郁文姐姐一同去放風箏

今天的風夠大, 放風箏真好！

可是那即將西下的太陽可還是炙熱的很, 逼得我躲在樹下不願出來

各自選的風箏

樂選彩虹款

郁文選最愛的粉紅款

看兩人放風箏的專著神情～

1.

今天要彎進一個巷子時, 突然有個阿伯走到巷口的水果攤就自顧自地停了下來

我想後頭沒車跟著我, 我也就順勢等阿伯看完水果後靠邊讓我繼續開

不料, 等了一會兒..他遲遲沒有想轉身的動作

在我搖下車窗想請阿伯靠邊的同時,

一旁有位婦人提醒了他別在路口停留...

所以, 我又順勢往前開去...

請注意！這時我家的樂說話了～～～

“媽, 你是覺得空氣很差嗎？“

嗯.. 又是天外飛來一記的kuso問句！

2.

昨天, 我為了打發樂的時間

給了他3個數字, 看他想到什麼?

13

-- 20-7=13

-- 21-8=13

-- 14-1=13

5

-- 10-5=5

-- 55-50=5

-- 2+3=5

9

-- 4+5=9

-- 3+2+3+1=9

-- 1+8=9

這就是他給我的算式！真是滿腦子都是數字的孩子啊～

Lawrence's Daily 090409'

今天早上, 我問樂說：寶貝, 你早上要吃什麼啊？

以下是我家樂的回答：

“我不知道啊！媽, 你自己想想看, 我早餐要吃什麼！“

轉述給老媽, 老弟後...

他們異口同聲說: 啊...這不就是學你的嘛！

為什麼....為什麼都沒有人挺我...

教訓一下我的小孩說話的態度啊～

Lawrence's Daily 090609'

第一堂打擊樂的課, 是在主日學的教室圓滿完成的！

我是沒有在一旁觀看啦！

只不過, 大家一致認為樂很乖（有別於以外的活潑）, 有在follow 老師上課的步調！

我想老師應該也還蠻頭痛的吧！有學齡前的, 也有小學高年級生

識譜程度差異之大之外, 學齡前的孩子, 大字也都不認得幾個

更遑論年紀最小的樂！

不過, 一個鐘頭左右的課, 老師還教了蠻多東西

有

全音符/二分音符/四分音符/八分音符

全休止符/二分休止符/四分休止符/八分休止符

不過, 小子一上完課, 就急著和我分享他的吸收

“一拍二拍 三三拍拍 四四拍拍“

從昨天到今天仍念念不忘啊～～
