Science Project....Learning about Nature..

My son's natural curiosity makes it easy to introduce concepts during everyday activities.Nature starts with understanding concepts that develop as early as infancy. One of the scientific processess is observation which uses all senses. Babies explore the world using their senses. They look , touch , smell , hear and taste. They are curious and want to know  everything about their enviornment.






                                                      Now the question is how a child learn from nature? A child learns by seeing , over and over again. He learns by doing over and over. He learns rhythm by being a part of musical activity, singing, dancing, swaying to the music. He learns proper behaviour through positive reinforcement when he displays this behaviour.We collected flowers, petals, green leaves,dry leaves to give the knowledge of differences. I told him only once and asked him again and again.

Numbers to make a match

No matter which activities you try for teaching.You'll be more successful if you try them when he is feeling happy and carefree.Little ones have different learning style.As we all know children develop at different paces , and their strengths and interests very widely. With the help of numbers for helping the learning along-- and for making it fun.
                                  I have  take the opportunity to help my son learn numbers. I show him different blocks and figure and practice naming each other. I prints out the numbers in a thermocol plate; draws or prints clip art images for each number  on the paper plate. He tries to make a match.
