Below is a short description of some of the teaching tools that Seamons Educational Products uses in order to help children learn how to look, listen, remember, and do. StoriesSeamons Educational Products has been tested in a local private school that is held 3 days a week for 3 hours a day. In the lessons the children learn a different story every week for 8 ½ months out of the 9 months of the school year. These stories cover the alphabet from A to Z. Each story is an original composition written by Susan Seamons. The stories help to develop the children's memories. These stories contain many words that begin with the letter of the alphabet the students are learning that week. This helps the children learn more words and broaden their vocabulary. The children hear the story the first day, then the children are asked simple suggested questions, that are provided in the teacher's manual. On the third day questions are ask about what comes first in the story, which are also provided in the teacher's manual. With each days questions, the story helps the children to improve their memories and listening skills. BookletsWe have booklets for the children to color which will develop their small motor skills. These booklets go along with the stories that Susan has written. The booklets have a pictures, which are illustrate a part of the story that has several sentences describing the scene in the picture. The children are asked to color the pictures the way it was done in the teacher's manual, if the teacher wishes they may decide the colors the children will use. This is important because the children learn how to look, listen, remember, and do it. PuppetsThe puppets and the sticks for the puppet project are provided. Children will learn how to color, cut out, glue puppets onto the sticks. This emphasizes to the children what happened in the story. This allows the children the freedom to be able to tell the story to their parents when they take the puppet home. The children in the private school use children's safety scissors, these are not provided. Having the children cut out their own puppets is another way of teaching them how to develop their small motor skills. Knowing how to cut out is one of the requirements for entering most kindergartens. |
