I also agree that there's no one and only way to learn chinese char recog. No matter how good a product is, if the parent doesn't know how to use it correctly, it is still useless. Charmaine_Chong, if ur child is restless and did not respond well to flash cards, u may need to think abt how to use 中华字经effectively on him. I've ever sent my girl to 经典导读班, concept very similiar to 中华字经, except they read classics and ancient writings. Gave up half way cos it's simply too dry for her. One mother who shared her exp in using 中华字经 says initially she tried also find no result. Later she realize her method is wrong. Finally she made it.

I guess i also did not use the right method last time in 经典导读班, tat's why no result.

So the bottom line is : besides determining a right product, also must figure out the correct way to use it.

Hi Merlion,


My son does confuse sometimes. eg: bulldozer & excavator, wolf & fox.

I taught and showed him picture of Dalmation dog . At the end, when he see spotted cow, he happily tell me:’ mommy, this is dalmation cow, that is dalmation cat."

These are things that i need to explain to him.

He likes trucks. I borrowed book about forklift to read to him. Even with big and clear pictures, sometimes, he jsut can’t remember. One day when i see pallet, i quickly point to him, ‘"look son, this is pallet. u c this in the book’. Immediatly he remember and tell me the next time he see it.

If he can’t absorb via books, i will try to get him real object, outdoor activities… whatever fun things that help him to learn.

I read newspaper to him once in a while. Will do it more frequent. I get him to watch news too. No forcing. Just encourage him. So far so good.

I have read through the links for 字经 and my conclusion is i am afraid i might not handle it well. So, i decided to stick to my current chinese graded readers.


Dear Joconde,

I really find it interesting but lack of confident to teach my son using the materials. I think story base chinese graded readers does well for him.

Thanks for sharing mummies.

GreenQ:

There are some 韵语识字 video clips here : http://www.tudou.com/playlist/id/6205972/

Hi GreenQ,

This is interesting. Do you know if there are any DVDs?

[GreenQ]

Hi i3mum,


I am not sure if there are such DVDs in the market.

What have I done was to copy and type down the words and printed as hard copy to teach my kids. Then from time to time, I also let my kids to watch these video clips to enhance their memory on these words.

Cheers…

For those who are interested.
I totally agreed that knowing 4000 words would not mean much
without understanding the meanings or knowing their applications.

It is no doublt a big leap to able read newspapers & books, novels, classic by oneself.
Would take this a challenge to upgrade myself & learn with my child!
切记活学，活用。多听，多讲，多读，多写，多块活！

Have fun!

Oh mine, the words are so difficult! Are we really too much to ask for a pre-schooler to learn them?
