You Want Your Child To Succeed This book is written with one goal in mind: To teach you to teach your child. Not reading or writing or arithmetic -- though those are very important, but to teach your child skills that he will need to succeed in formal education.
"Every first pregnancy is an uninformed decision. Parenting still is basically an occupation done by amateurs," says Judy Todd, psychology professor. Glenn Doman, a Human Potential expert adds, "We raise our turkeys on purpose, and our children by accident."
But with TEACH ME, I'M YOURS, that's all going to change. Children Lose Creativity in School Statistically, in Kindergarten, children ask ninety-five percent of
questions, with
teacher asking only five percent. But by
end of First grade,
numbers are completely reversed. Now
teacher asks ninety-five percent of
questions, and
children have to be goaded to ask
remaining five percent. In other words, creative thought often goes out
window when
child enters school.
But with TEACH ME, I'M YOURS, that's going to change for your child. And why is that? you may ask.
Because your home is your child's first school and you are
first teacher. I promise you'll be a very good one, too. That's what TEACH ME, I'M YOURS is all about -- a training manual for you and your child.
Unfortunately "the job of parenting is one of
few things we expect people to be good at without having any training," according to Hannah Nuba-Scheffler. But now there's TEACH ME, I'M YOURS. Your Child Can Far Exceed Today's Existing Standards To begin with, your child must know where her/his body is, in time and in space, before s/he can learn anything academically. I'll repeat that. Your child must know where her/his body is, in time and in space, before s/he can learn in school.
Too many parents underestimate a child's ability to learn. Studies conducted by Dr. Benjamin Bloom, noted child psychologist from
University of Chicago, have shown that 50 percent of a child's intelligence develops by
age of four, another 30 percent by
age of eight and
final 20 percent by
age of seventeen years. Intelligence, in this case, is defined as
ability to manipulate and process information.
Parents trained to teach positively, help their young children exhibit mental and linguistic growth far exceeding that of other same-age children.
Your child's future intelligence depends to a large extent on what you put into her/his mind before
age of five years. Illiteracy Rate Growing Rampantly We need a new approach to Learning for
preschool, Kindergarten and primary aged child. In a recent report,
U.S. Department of Education stated that there are more than 24 million functionally illiterate Americans of voting age.
Each day this figure grows larger -- it's now more than one-third of
American adult population -- and many young people reach
age of 18 and are unable to read
front page of a newspaper or complete a job application form. Children Being Pushed Ahead In School What are
reasons for such a gigantic problem? For years, too many children have been pushed ahead from grade to grade, falling farther and farther behind. They weren't prepared for
learning process. Instead they were pushed into
formal classroom before they had an opportunity to prepare their bodies and their minds for this new challenge.
Most children are not taught body control, body awareness or
main facets of perception so they can prepare themselves for
joyful goal of a lifetime of learning. In other words,
child hears, but does not listen;
child looks, but does not see; s/he touches, but does not feel; and eats, but does not taste. The child does not grow toward a full potential in life. Let Learning Become A Joyous Experience TEACH ME, I'M YOURS will help your child to enjoy and to excel in
learning experience. Mentally, today, too many children are Third Grade "dropouts." So, if you want your child to be happy and smart, too, use this book and be
First Teacher!
