1  EARLY LEARNING / Teaching Your Child to Read / Re: The best feeling in the world! on: April 26, 2010, 02:37:58 AM
congrates!!! I know how u feel!! its very exciting indeed.... i guess its also about finding a way how ur little one learn. i used doman before and its just hard to catch my son's attention... eventho he could point to me the correct word when i ask him which is which, not all the time tho.... but the process of trying to flash in front of his eyes when he didnt want to look at all wasnt very encouraging... :P
but now instead of flashing cards that he isnt very interested in, i write it on the white board, and that catches his full attention... now he learn at a fast pace, every word i teach, i teach a few time n i ask him to either show to me or say it out, its more like a game, and of cos i teach the words that he is familiar with... im very happy i found a way to teach without any stress and result is very encouraging.... HAPPY ^^

hi ariel,

sorry for the late reply... wasnt able to really sit down and update myself on this forum.
yes 200 in a session, i usually have a few topic, eg animal for 12 cards, food for 15cards... for 7 or 8 topics, u will get 200cards... but u may want to start with lesser cards... its ok
3  EARLY LEARNING / Early Learning - General Discussions / Re: glenn doman, i nearly give up on: October 31, 2009, 12:50:02 AM
hi ariel,

SM recommend u flash 200cards, if u can... i have seen ppl said no need repeat the cards,but i find its quite impossible as u flash 200 cards and no repetation means u need a lot of cards!!! my teacher suggest to me, day 1 u flash 200cards, take away 100cards and add in a diff set of 100cards for day 2, day 3 take away the oldest 100cards and add in newer one... like a cycle. i have lotsa cards i bought the whole complete set of shichida cards of 1800pic and 1800words plus other flash cards i bough n i made myself too...

another things is, flashing lotsa cards for SM is not for baby to remember but to stimulate the right brain, so it doesnt matter what kind of cards ur flashing... of cos we flash cards that we think its useful to the baby.... LOL so i guess if ur baby is not getting bored u can just repeat any cards u have?!!!

hope it helps

Hi Chanze318,

i read that you have a 7months grandson, and you want to teach him reading right??
well this is what i will do if i have another baby at 7months smile

first ask yourself, what is the priority? and how much time you have to do all that??

if your first priority is you want him to be able to read at very young age, then you go with GD first. if you want to stimulate the right brain, then you go with shichida method flashing lotsa pic cards. of cos the 2nd question i ask how much time you have, if you have lotsa time, you can do both. besides that, math dot cards is a must and you also can add in your baby can read dvd.

i started late bcos i didnt have much knowledge about all these. i gave my bb baby can read dvd at ard 8 or 10months. then flashing card at ard 18months. its more challenging to flash cards to toddler at the stage where he can run freely, especially dots card cos its kinda boring. so i suggest you do it earlier.

i am also flashing dots card to my boy, but i am using the shichida 65days programme, its more interesing than the normal red dot, i havent see any result and i am not goin to test him after the 2nd round flashing (3 cycles for this programme). as for your boy, he is still young i guess the GD dot cards are suitable as in able to attract his attension.

i did read up book of prof shichida and GD, he said accept the kid as what they are, do not compare and always always show how much you love them. i hope mommies here using shichida method do not feel stress up if you are unable to achive what you have plan for or thinks that you have failed or even stress up your kid. bcos being able to read at the young age is really not such a big deal if they cant feel your love. the theory is the same for GD, if you and the kid are not having fun, pls stop it. this is what GD said. so what is more important here is showing love and having fun with all the flashing activities. being able to read is the secondary.

i hope it helps  smile

yes thank you...

thats why im sharing it on the forum... keep trying, i know how it feels when ur flashing cards but nobody is looking, kind of silly!!!

 LOL
6  EARLY LEARNING / Early Learning - General Discussions / glenn doman, i nearly give up on: October 30, 2009, 03:09:51 AM
i would like to share this, it happened this morning.

i been teaching my 22mths GD for about 30cards, he didnt really pay much attention, he even look away when i flash that 5cards, so it really make me wonder if he is learning or not. i been flashing Shichida pictures for a few months too, he prefer to look at pictures of cos, so when i introduce GD, he didnt bother much. well then, i didnt want to feel stress over it, since its suppose to be fun, and im not enjoying flashing the card when nobody is looking. so i decided to stop for sometimes... just take it easy.

this morning, looking at those cards laying on the table, i decided to test my boy, i put 2cards and i asked him which is nose? for about 10questions... he got it 100% correct!!! my son is not talking much so he pointed to me the answer... i was shocked!! at first i though it maybe just coincident, so i keep testing... and i even pointed at the "ear" card and ask him "is this mouth?" he shaked his head and point to me the correct answer!!!

im goin to start it again!!! eventhough he is not looking i know he is learning!!
so mommies i hope its also happening to your baby, you never know if they are learning!!! HOORAY~~~ big grin
7  EARLY LEARNING / Early Learning - General Discussions / Re: How to teach Shichida method? on: October 12, 2009, 12:37:25 PM
hi i dono if there is any other shichida school besides japan, singapore, malaysia and indonesia.

shichida class is once a week, duration 1hour. basicaly its some games that the teacher play with students. including image training, singing, finger training, puzzle, matching... and the ESP (guessing game), memory training and flash cards are the one that most ppl are talking about regarding shichida method.

1) flash card, similar to GD or Brillkids, u flash the cards fast 1sec per card. the differents about shichida method is u flash as many card as u can, recommended 200 cards a day. mainly in pictures card, its to stimulate and activate the right brain, and when u read out the word, it so called also activate the left brain when the kid hear the word.

2) ESP(right brain sensory circuits training), some kind like a guessing game, so u put 2 things inside 2 similar boxes. and ask the kid to guess which is which by using the 5 senses. see thru it, by touching it....

3) memory training, so called to change the quality of the brain. the kid is given a story line base on the pictures eg. the elephant jump over the moon, the moon as big as a cake... so u show the elephant when u say it, next u show the moon follow by the cake pictures.... so u need a lot of small card pictures for this game. next u ask the kid to try to arrange the pictures according to what he could remember from the story.

you have to do this everyday at home, otherwise i dont think there will be any result. shichida also ask the parents to accept their kids and see their strong points, learn to see the kids as perfect, just as she is..

i cant comment on the result as my kid is still rather young to see any result. hope it helps  smile



8  EARLY LEARNING / Teaching Your Child - Other Topics / Re: Free downloadable potty resources on: July 18, 2009, 02:44:36 AM

11  EARLY LEARNING / Teaching Your Child to Read / Re: my 17 months old baby does not show interest in flashcards on: July 13, 2009, 02:39:50 AM
im goin to attend glen doman n shichida method seminar n class soon, my dd is 19mths.. b4 this i teach him lots of word verbally when reading a book, when i say violin he would point to me, he knows lotsa things but not in word form... im trying the trial version of LR but i dono how often show i show to him... he used to love YBCR but when i show him YBCR flashcard he doesnt interested or maybe i have little confident that he would understand it...  he does watch dvd like barney n elmo too... he loves it. i ever show him LR trial on my computer he was quite interested but im not sure how to go about it.

would someone kindly post here how to schedule for a day's lesson, eg show LR how many times n how long? flash card from how many word onwards?

i will be getting some info regarding this too when i go for seminar but i would like to know what other mothers is doing...

thanks everyone nowink
