First FUNdamentals

It's never too early to want the very best for your child. From the moment of birth vital windows of opportunity begin to open and it is these early years when your child's brain is most receptive to new information. When your child is like a sponge, absorbing and delighting in every new experience.

Our goal is to help parents and educators lay the foundation for learning and to enable children to become well-rounded individuals. With First Fundamentals your child will learn eye-tracking skills, early musical skills, listening skills, as well as physical 'motor' skills such as finger and thumb control.

Product Description

First Fundamentals consists of a 40-page guide book; 64 tear-out activity cards (at back of guide book); 11 large word cards (at back of guide book); and 12 black and white visual stimulation cards.

FUNdamentals

FUNdamentals is a veritable treasure chest of fun games and activities, designed not only to keep your youngster amused for hours on end, but also to enrich and stimulate his or her growing mind.

Nothing quite like it has ever been available before, empowering parents to give children a flying start in life–a way to acquire basic skills even before going to a school. Imagine having your child start school ahead of the class, already able to read, write and do simple arithmetic. Imagine a child who has already learned how to be creative, think for himself, develop a good memory, and has high self-esteem. In other words, a well-rounded child.

The FUNdamentals program takes all of the guesswork out of keeping a young child happily occupied in a meaningful, enriching way through multi-sensory, multi-intelligence games and activities. We like to call it 'purposeful play.'

One of the big advantages of FUNdamentals is that many activities don't require any more time than you already spend with your child: in the car; out shopping or around the house. So it's ideal for busy parents. For less than a dime a day you can make a priceless investment which will last a lifetime.

With the help of FUNdamentals your child will acquire an extensive vocabulary of about 4,000 words (90% of words used in every day conversation) and be able to read about 400 words (about 65% of words in most children's books). He or she will also be able to write and perform basic mathematics (simple adding, subtracting, multiplication and division). The child is also introduced to science and nature, creative and logical thinking. On a social level the program establishes a sense of values and self-esteem in the young child as well as interpersonal skills.

Product Description

FUNdamentals consists of a one hour video; 170-page "how-to" guide book; 400 word cards; 1 set number rods; 232 activity cards number cards; 3 math grids; 6 sets of word games; 9 writing templates.

"Yani's Goal"-Thinking Skills for Children (ages 6 and above)

Children need to learn the habit of logical thought early ­ during their elementary school years. But at home or at school we rarely teach them how to think for themselves. Now there's "Yani's Goal" a fun, interactive CD-ROM that does just that. It teaches your child three vital Thinking Tools-The Cloud Tool, The Ambitious Target Tool and The Branch Tool-through a colorful, engaging adventure story. These tools are ways of tackling everyday problems at school and at home that will last them a lifetime.

The practical thinking tools in "Yani's Goal" enable students to:

  • Identify the key ideas or issues within a lesson or text
  • Sequence what they have learned into a logical order for improved understanding
  • Expose and check the validity of assumptions
  • Identify inconsistencies in logic
  • Clarify problems and create their own thoughtful arguments and solutions
  • Set their own goals and develop a logical plan for achieving them
  • Resolve conflicts
  • Know how to predict the consequence of their own actions and therefore see why they should control any negative behavior

Overall, these three Thinking Tools will help your child to contribute more thoughtfully at school, to be less impulsive, and to tackle problems independently. These are lifetime skills that will directly improve student attainment and behavior.

While the whole program is designed to be enjoyed by your child on his own, the CD-ROM includes a Parent Advice section, so you can support your child as he learns.

The Thinking Tools are used in three national educational systems, taught by over 50,000 teachers, and have helped over 2 million children to higher academic success.

Available for the first time in an easy-to-use format for home use.

New Learning Styles Book

"Discover Your Child's Learning Style" is a 325 page paperback, published by Prima. In it, longtime educators Mariaemma Willis and Victoria Kindle-Hodson suggest that there are more aspects to a student's learning style beyond the simple modes of visual, auditory or kinesthetic. Their "learning style profile" takes into account a child's talents, interests, preferred learning environment, and disposition, as well as the three more familiar modes. Written as a workbook, with a series of do-it-yourself assessments, the guide offers parents a chance to work out their child's preferred style. A chart of activities accompanies each style.
