Fishing today!

We've had a fun fishing by using fish tracing card .
The 'toys' were created by mummy.
We learned Alphabet,Mathematics and color too...
Hope you can try this at home with your kids ! ^^
These are great learning experience through "play" !

Gather your materials and enjoy it today!:


1.Gather your materials. You will need multiple colors of card stock or sturdy construction paper, a marker, scissors, eyelets and an eyelet setter ,or you can also use paper clips!

2.Draw a fish to make a template. Make sure the tail is large enough to write a letter on it. Cut it out and use this to trace all the fish.

3.Start tracing the fish on your card stock/construction paper. I normally trace one for every two fish.

4.Get comfy on your couch, and cut! Layer two or three pieces of paper to make it go faster but be careful , the paper can shift.

5.Add a letter on the tail and a smile too. If you are using paper clips add an eye too!

6.If you are using the eyelet option, add the eyelet as the eye for each fish. The eyelet should be magnetic, double check though since some are so heavily coated with paint the fishing pole may not pick them up!








For Mathematics learning:

感恩孩子给我点子

昨晚我又说了绘本故事给孩子听（看），用了同样的书《小黑鱼》，只是用在不同的人而已。（哈哈，这绘本的魅力可真大！百看不厌哦~）
学习对象是大女儿妍惠和哥哥冠胜。

我用了一样的媒介、器材、技巧...
不过在绘画制做当儿， 冠胜说：“妈咪，我要把红色涂在旁边就好了，里面的不要涂哦！”
我当时还不清楚他说些什么，直到他示范一次给我看后，我才恍然大悟！你看下图就明白了 >_< 哈哈~
p/s:
我们做大人的常常都会忽略掉孩子一颗 “细腻的心” :P
呵呵，这回我可要好好检讨了 *.*
下星期我会把这本名作带进幼儿园的〈绘本分享〉希望小朋友们会喜欢它~

Show a globe to him and ask Question : How much water is there? Look at world map together .Ask child --Is there more land or more water in the world ? Most of the planet is covered by water. In fact 70% of planet earth is water leaving us 30% land. ( Find out from a map and globe ) We also do it in the previous geography lesson.Discuss how the five oceans run /join together. The five oceans: Antarctic Atlantic Indian Pacific Arctic * Note ;different sources present a different opinion on the numbers of oceans . Some sources leave the Antarctic off of the list.
