All About Flashcards

[grapevine]

For mummies who want to make flashcards - great if you have the time and materials. I bought both glenn doman style and Shichida style flashcards off the internet. Look though the retail forum site in this website and google for flashcards online. Many are reasonably priced and cost less than half the price of the originals.


Just to share with everyone - cos I started making the flashcards first and delayed starting to show my kid the cards ( cos the Glenn Doman book said you need at least 200 cards before you start! ). I only made 50 in 3 months; wasting time getting the right materials. Then I found I could buy 200 cards for about $50!!!

Hi,


For those using GD method, I found this link could be of use:

for those who understand Chinese. I think also applicable to those
following Shichida Method. I use both methods for my gals.

found this to be rather interesting and beneficial its an interview with Dr Doman's daughter when she was in Singapore.

Hi Grapevine,


Perhaps you can take a look at http://www.rightbraineducationshop.com

and

I sign up with them.

They have more than 10,000 flash cards, Mandala, linking memory, phonics, random dots flash cards and others in their e-library.

I already stop making flash cards myself. The worst is looking for pictures. all I can find is cartoon pics. They don't look real.

My kid's sensei says I should flash cards that are real pictures. Not cartoon.
Because the child at a young age can't differentiate real and cartoon pics.

Hi,


I just purchased a pre-loved Glenn Doman English kit and reading the How to teach your baby to read book. I'm a little confused on the instruction on what to do after day 3.

1)In the book it says: 'Your child first 3 sets have already been seen for a week so you may now begin to take out an old word in each set and put in a new one each day. Five days from now, retire an old word from each of the two sets you have just added in.' (What does it mean by the two sets? Is it refering to the 4th word set and 5th word set?)

2) Then further down the page it says' When this system is working smoothly, gradually add a fourth set of words then a fifth set of words to your daily program.' (This is where I don't understand, so when should I be adding these 2 new word sets? Cos the above point says that five days from now, but this point says when the system is working smoothly.)

For parents who are using GD flashcards, could you help to clarify?

It will be helpful if you can share on what to do on the 3rd day onwards.

Thanks in advance.

the best way is to go down for a GD baby consultation. last time they gave free talks on how to flash, now i am not sure if they still do that..call them.. its best to get the correct way from the main source.

If i remember correctly try to think of the sets as CATEGORIES - family, colors, parts of the body, etc.. each set to flash shld have 5 cards and each card/word flash for a week then change only 1 card/word after that.

From what i remember, i didnt follow exactly 5 sets of 5 words coz i was a working mum. So i only gave 3 sets of 5 words.. then really depending on your own child, you \"RETIRE\" the earliest word from the set and replace with a new one.. The best to do this i found out was to have my own chart which i did and just write date and time i flashed then and it will show you when the word is already flashed for sufficient times then u retire and insert a new word into the set. Let me check my thumb drive if i still have the sample chart. i can forward to you but its 5 yrs ago and my old pc is spoilt so while i go dig for it, pls see below

you can do a chart that has the categories then each word and next to them is the date and time of flashing. then take out the word after 1 week or for me, 5 days. (do note i only flash 3 times in the night as i am a working mum with each session interval of 30-45 mins apart. I did Eng, maths and chinese in each session and flashed so fast i just keep after that, its actually the playing with her before and after flashing that takes time, hee)

hi all,


After the flashing the G D words cards, i started to move on to do my own little books to include prepositions, verbs.. starting like from i can, i have, my, i am, etc...

I also did my own flashcards with photos behind for like shapes, musical instruments, etc..

Anyone interested please email me at [email protected]
I can sell for a small fee the following soft copies and files for mummies interested. you can just print, laminate and use a ring to put them together..
or if you want the full thing, i still have materials left to do them.

Thanks!
