| It
would be difficult to find more eager learners than young children!
Although they cannot be "taught" in he traditional sense, they need to
explore, experiment and make discoveries for themselves in order to make
sense of their world. Children need many interesting things to see, hear,
touch, taste and smell as they interact with the objects, people and
events that surround them. They are naturally inquisitive and eager to
explore and create, and seem to learn best through a playful interaction
with their environment. Successful educational experiences in the future
depend largely on the foundation laid during the early childhood years. Bright Beginnings is a user-friendly "how-to" manual for parents who would like to teach their children at home. It is designed for children 4-6 years of age, so it can be used for preschool and / or Kindergarten. The program helps children grasp important concepts and skills such as letters, shapes, numbers, colors, gross and fine motor coordination, listening, visual discrimination, classifying and much more. Character training and Bible knowledge is interwoven through the curriculum, creating a balanced program both academically and spiritually. All of this accomplished using a variety of methods that will delight as well as challenge your child. For your convenience, Bright Beginnings is divided into 2 separate books: Book 1 contains 144 Daily Lesson Plans that are the foundation of the program. Complete lessons for the following core subjects are found on the Daily Lesson Plan: Bible; Language; Math; Character Building (odd-day lessons); Health, Safety and Manners (even-day lessons); and Memory Verse. Book 2 contains Appendix subjects, which can be done in any order. These subjects include God's World; Physical Education; Art (odd-day lessons); Music (even-day lessons); and Snack. |
