FT-Picking+D14【粉猪E1S14】flying a kite

Vincy

最近娃英语的一些特点：

1，理解性阅读的长文，比如the costume party，stone soup，the wise black bird，robot妈妈读完1到2遍，娃就可以用原文或者稍加改动回答问题了。理解的比较到位

2，可以灵活运用

在讲地球自转、公转的时候，由热到冷由夏季进入秋季，由秋季进入冬季。能用英语表达的很精准。

在讲船的时候，她会给我讲我不知道的船，比如cargo ship，娃说it only can carry goods，not people.

在做浮沉实验的时候，娃把两个橡皮筋丢到水里，一个直接沉了，一个浮着，我猜测是因为入水角度问题，所以用手调整了下。娃说：that‘s not fair，this band is floating，after you touched it，it sinks。you should not touch it。

3，指读，牛5（一直以为牛4，发现文章长了，一看才知道牛5）

从牛3开始自己读书，因为3开始买的正版，点读笔可以用起来。所以能买正版尽量正版，可以让娃尽快自主阅读。到目前为止，每本书除了听力词汇很少听到（crept、growling、crunching等）的和不常用的词，基本每本书平均3-4个生词。生词基本不影响整体的阅读理解了！这块目前娃最爱干，因为她觉得最轻松！

中文：在得大语文者得天下的时代，语文我们却只重点抓了认字。从4岁9个月开始系统认字，5岁2个月到四五快读第6册的时候终于有了质的变化，读书不再是蹦字，开始读出了故事性，认字速度也上来了。这期间也是经历了五六次鸡飞狗跳不愉快的挣扎！回头看，强推值得反思，也确有必要！古诗还是以前积累的几十首，没形成习惯。后面配合幼儿园至少把每周学校学的一首巩固住吧😭

数学：妈妈没管，娃很感兴趣，爸爸有时间一周1-2次，没时间2周一次，基本是游戏为主，应该还在10以内减法。

总结于2022.5.22，朝阳区居家办公，娃停课在家，不得不鸡娃的历史性地一个月！
