“Amma…m so tired”….

Filed under: Its all abt my little one, My precious little Tacloo!!! — bhony @ 8:39 am

Sam is sick..

Hez running a viral fever.  Third day on the row.

With all his medicines..he is drowsy…and wants to sleep.  These are the words he often utters… “Amma..m so tired” .. poor lil boy.. Aversed with the medicine..and thrown out twice…Apetite has gone down..

But, gathers up all his energy to watch all his favourite animations in Playhouse Disney.  Free from all his learning part..

With all this, he was uttering during his sleep…” Amma  i dont want… i dont want… i dont want..”…. May be i was there in his dream trying to administer his medicine.   Piqued with curiousity..i went near him and asked..”what u dont want?”… he said,” nothing”…and turned back to sleep… :)   “wink”    He took an effort to answer me even when he is asleep… LOL..

Wish he gets back to normal..love you so much dear..

Updates..

Filed under: Its all abt my little one, My precious little Tacloo!!! — bhony @ 10:30 am

Back after a long long ago…

I  dropped here to register few of my lil ones creativity….and  a lot of his mischiefs :)

Since  Sam joined this school…everything went on fine…he enjoyed his schooling…learning curve was shooting up… his appetite was good…and the love towards his teacher was amazing.. Thanks Ms. Reana.  She is one good teacher i had ever seen.. Responsible,  Humble, Strict, Productive and charming… wow..dictionary lack words to describe her.  Unfortunately she had to quit for good reason..her daughter needs her more !!! Understandable :)

There begun everything. Soon as she left.. Sam started missing and expecting her… Though she had informed all the kids that a new teacher is yet to arrive and she will be good, kind and interesting.  She made an effort to make a lovely gift for the kids …with a note..saying, ” Dominic, you are a precious jewel ! Enjoy teaching you ! Missing you ! God Bless ! Ms.Reana 18/08/09″.  How sweet of her !!! :)  Wish i had a teacher like her !!!

Sam was unable to cope up with the substitute teacher…where, the new teacher hadn’t been there yet…God only knows the acceptable and unacceptable reasons… But my kid wasn’t comfortable…started saying..he doesn’t want to go to school..n there was lack of interest towards his learning activities.. It took a while for me to figure out that he wasn’t himself in the class.. And i had to handle to situation very diplomatic..to convince the teacher as well as my kid. It worked !!

Sam had been transferred to the akin Explorer class…where he was suddenly impressed by the teacher.. Ms.Veron.  She is again a good teacher..impressed me as well as my kid.    Its a pleasure to picture the way she handle kids. My son was totally flattered by her..though she doesn’t need to attempt one.. :) My heart lightens when m able to see a raise in his curve again..and  a joy in his face..

Good things to convey…

Sam is getting good at blending…Addition..Now,  even fraction… Better with his coloring…Sorting the words to their family.. and numbers.

With his english speaking part..

He tries and manages to speak english most of the time.. Good effort my boy!! But it comes out with blunders and flaws.. Few of his attempts.. Mommy, i want music on my Kadh… Kadh means ears..He tries to say..he wants to listen to the music.. :)

and other thing…when i asked him to bring his work sheet… he said, ” its down the sofa” :) tried to mean… its under the sofa.. :O

One more thing…when we left home on a very hot day… he happened to describe it as..“Mommy its a Veily day”… Veil is sunny… My God!! LOL… Fun to hear all these… I appreciate his attempts!!  :P

Few of his cranky part…

He stands on both extremes… one minute he behaves as good as..a lovable and adorable child…the next minute he turns wild and drives me crazy.. :(

I find him eccentric at times…adamant by refusing to do his activities…annoys me by not answering when i cry his name…embarrassing while travelling in the bus en route to his school..bewilders  me by attempting things that he doesn’t know at all..displeases when he rattles..and the list goes on.. Other way… he astonishes me by drawing a sheet from the shelf and doing the activity on his own… impressing me with his cleanliness .. like he says, ” i want a tissue to wipe my face”…” i want to use the towel”.. “i want to brush my teeth to get rid of germs”..some times quite contrary..  One minute he is impulsive…and the other minute he is instinctive…

M disheartened at these issues on him..Wish this to be a phase…n he gets across it soon..

Fun part..

When he happened to see a delivery man in Punggol plaza..(the person was wearing a jacket and tracks with his helmet on..as it was a rainy day)…suddenly he yelled, ” Mommy, look ASTRONAUT !!!!!! “ ….we break out to laugh… Oh my God!!! He made me laugh to the core… my sweet sammy… Enjoyed the day!!!!

Curiosity..

Filed under: Its all abt my little one, My precious little Tacloo!!! — bhony @ 8:39 am

M here today with my discoveries on an inquisitive mind of my lil one..

I wonder how the curiosity of the lil brain develops.. Symptom is.. Questions!!!!   Bugging us with questions..”Mommy whatz this?”… “Mommy, whats that?”  ” how do u know that” “When n whys”…

The  desire to learn just come upon as they bud… Sam at the age of 2, started identifying alphabets, numbers and basic shapes.  It all happened suddenly and unexpectedly..Cos i tried to figure it out to him quite a while ago before he reached two.  But he never bothered to listen.  I was impatiently longing..but later i realised the child must attain the age to learn certain things.. So, i left things to his choice and started following his interests.

I captured an interesting quality in him.  He expects more and he has his own way of perception..ofcourse every kid has its own way of perceiving things.. When he learned the basic shapes (triangle, square, rectangle and circle)…and whenever i ask him to identify those shapes…he gets fuzzy and asks me for more shapes..”whats next?” will be his question.  To move inorder to activate…i had darted with few more shapes which includes…sphere, hemisphere, semi circle, spiral, cube, cuboid, pyramid, pentagon, hexagon, diamond, and few like this… He expressed interest in such things  and very much capable of learning shortly… And he started relating those shapes with other things wherever he goes…

As days pass by..he started building his vocabulary…and he showed interest in doing worksheets.. which has counting, matching..and finding the odd one…Since he doesn’t know to write…he did these kind of activities…he loves coloring. And when he crossed 3 years, he started drawing pictures of car, bus, sun, moon and stuffs like that…and suddenly he made me dumbfound by writing alphabets on his own.. Actually, he started tracing the alphabets what his dad tried to make it out from him…then he attempted to draw the alphabet as it is…quite a gud try! The next 2 or 3 days he was drawing the alphabets not knowing the actual sequence of the strokes. With lil assistance he picked up writing the alphabets.. I was so happy  seeing him writing the alphabets.. This happened so with numbers…

Parallely he learned the phonics of the alphabets..which comes online thru starfall.com.  Which helps him now with his word building… Now, he tries to read and spell those three letter words… He attempts to read any new word that is with 3 or 4 letters regardless it is right or wrong.

He surprised me by reading “Ang Mo Kio“… Its a place in Singapore. Though he cudn’t make it out completely.. He read that “Ang Mo Ko“…But thats fine… He is growing..

Coloring has become one of his favourite these days… He used to scribble meaninglessly…now, he is trying to keep the colors inside the borders..though he needs lil practice.

He is able to manisfest his academic side wisely…M happy abt his growth..

Apart from his academic side…he shows some evidence of socialising with people…and a little interest in conversing with people over phone…and i believe that is developed from his dear friend Yuvan…which i feel happy abt it..Thanks dear Yuvan.

Children surprise us by qualifying with their milestones…

M happy he is moving on..Love you sammy..

Getting well…

Filed under: Bulletin !! — bhony @ 10:05 am

Its been one whole week…

We all three got sick.. It was my esteemed hubby who brought home the seeds of the illness.  Never to worry..for we are not pushed into the outbreak.  My hubby got alright in 4 days and he gratefully passed it to me and my lil son.. I was suffering fever and throat pain..and got ready within 2 days.  The weakness still persists..but it will soon fade off.. It was Sam who hasn’t yet come out of the cold..and he took off to school for a week…Poor fellow…missed Miss.Reana’s class.  I believe he will be alright in a day or two.

So..all 3 safe… :)

will soon be in better shape for the blogging business :)

Montessori experience in India..

Filed under: Contemplations !!! — bhony @ 10:44 am

M here to unroll a particular instance which i have personally encountered during my visit to India.

Its about my kid who is 2 and 3/4 years old at the time of January 2009.  We had relocated to India for a short span of 5 months.  Hence, i decided to put him in a Montessori school nearby.  I was very specific with a Montessori school becos i want him to be taken care with great attention. There were plenty to say…n i chose “Kids Galaxy”, owing to the unavailability of seats  with the much impressed montessori schools…n i found it comparitively better with the available ones.   At the time of enrollment, i had to settle around Rs. 3200 as term fees and Rs.1000 as registration fees.  This is quite a high emolument in Indian standards for a pre-school.

Before i move further, i wud like to give an account of my child’s interest in school.  My child is born in India and brought to Singapore at the age of 4 and half months. I opine he enjoyed his milestone developements himself by learning and admiring things around him.  So, i decided when he is at the age of 20 months i shd put him in a play school.  And it worked. The very first day when i took him to the play school…he was literally eager to allow him inside…enjoyed the new environment. That made me to conceive that he will not be aversed to school…when i put him in the montessori in India.  Contrarily, when i left him in Kids Galaxy for the first day…he was happy to be in..but when i went to fetch him…i cud see him taken aback.  He cried for the first time being in school.  I just thot..it might be due to the environment…and made his mind to get prepared for the next day.  Surprisingly, the night before his second day school…he tried to convince me saying he doesn’t want to go to school. Days went by….and i cud never regain his confidence in school.

As a mother, i was unable to withdrew him from school…just as he says.  I needed some time to analyse abt his progress and rule out what bothers him in the school.  His rejection initially was…he wasn’t received by a teacher…a maid in the school receives the children.. Its a routine. My God! I’m totally against it..since i have a feeling always that, when a child personally received by a teacher..will have a gud tactility and affection towards the teacher aswellas the school.

Secondly, there were around twenty kids for a teacher and their learning goes in a group through out the period of 3 hrs. Not much individual attention, lacking with their creative part.  Parent’s aren’t aware of the montessori materials (i have been told they are using montessori materials..but i haven’t seen one…eventhough i had an orientation with the school..and i was particularly told there wasn’t any refreshment classes).  Whenever i ask my child, “what did u learn today in school?” he says “Alphabets”…And he is a kid..so i cud not much rely on him…perhaps he cud not remember things appropriately to update me..Alphabets might be the part of their lesson everyday..So, whenever i chk with the teacher, she says he learned counting..they did worksheets…dancing and colouring..a piece of craft…listening to rhymes and stuffs… M truely unsatisfied.. (Becos, my child was well aware of identifying alphabets, numbers from 1 – 10, basic shapes ..and colors at that age. And his vocabulary is quite good aswel). What is the point in making him learn the same alphabets n numbers? Sure i wud expect some new things they do with the same. They give a worksheet every weekend as a homework…which contains matching or counting or coloring or stuffs like that… Sometimes he did that correctly…n when it comes for counting and stuffs..at that age he found it difficult to accomplish…i did took an effort to teach him several ways…but he rather found it difficult…and i dont want to proxy him for the worksheets.   So i came to a conclusion that he needs some time to consummate. But when i return his worksheets on monday…and inform the teacher that he cud not complete … cos he is unable to understand…she never agrees…rather she says he did that in class. Then asked me to wait for the parent teachers meeting that falls on the first monday of every month.

The parent-teachers meeting happened to be a real bull shit. I was expecting a lot abt his academic side and his progress rather than all those excursion discussion and those extracurricular activites for parents..Its a mere waste of time.. Those activites can be issued thru a circular.. I was worried i cudn’t gather updates on my child..other than the same response from the teacher.  I waited until the end of the term for the “Open day” which was the actual parent-teacher meeting in their language.  I was given a file which remarks with his skills.. n that was very consise. I was taken lil aback with that progress report, cos it was remarked in a way..that wasn’t cognizance with my child.  I know where my child stands..but the report was there to impress me rather than his actual progress.  I asked for the worksheet he had done at school..but there was none. They handed me a creative book which contains making pictures out of cotton, sand and stuffs like that…which he had already got used in his playschool in Singapore.    I wasn’t expecting much progress from the child as i know him academic wise to my knowledge…though he was quite on and off to the school becos of his health reasons,  he is real gud in picking up things ….but i wanted to know what kind of creative part he learns from the school that he hadn’t experienced from my side.. I believe they are answerable to me…since m paying high..i do expect much.

I wouldn’t say they dont have creative part at all. But they lack with it. Learning a rhyme and identifying alphabets and numbers everyday wudn’t be challenging for a child. Definitely a child needs more when he does masters with it.  I believe they dint extend them with the practical and sensorial part.

Its been displayed as sophisticated..but actually not.  I have been smothered with this and that…but deluded. Until the last day of his school, he wasn’t happy enough to pop into the school…he embraces me tightly whispering “never let me in” with tears rolling out his cheeks.  But i know he doesn’t cry the whole day..somehow he gets accomodated to the place.  But, sure therez scarcity in his volition.

This lack of observant care was much bothering me… According to me that wasn’t a montessori school to be contemplated.  I consider study of teaching methods, including the aims of education and the ways in which such goals may be achieved.   I count on the educational psychology about the way in which learning takes place.

Its widely known that, using the Montessori approach to teach is extremely challenging, but equally exciting and rewarding.   And i have learned, Montessori schools have proven successful all over the world, with all kinds of children (blind, gifted, learning disabled, wealthy, poor, etc.) and in many different environments. I believe the Montessori system is based on belief in children’s creative potential, their drive to learn, and their right to be treated as individuals.

I have been depressed, cos i put lot of effort on him with his academic side at home and the school lacks with it.   I suppose, the child learns a lot from school or outside home than from a mother.  How could i prevail on these kind of schools.

The worst part of all is..he trembles with fear when i utter a word abt “Kidz Galaxy”.  M back in SG now. I have enrolled him in a montessori school here..n i found him scared to go to school for the first two days becos of his aversion to school.  On the way back home on his second day school..he said, “Mummy i like the school” , “I will not cry tomorrow” “and i like the teacher”.  M happy he is tailored with care.  Now he enjoys every bit of his schooling.  He even asks me why is he not sent to school on weekends.

My earnest gratitude for the teachers in his SG school.

I sincerely advise the parents to run thru the schools with their literacy before enrolling their child and carefully heed their children.

Inept Optometrists…

Filed under: Contemplations !!! — bhony @ 10:26 am

The following story transpired a few months ago…when i was there in India.  M not desingning here to interest or amuse the reader.  Its a narration of an incident, which really shd be counted as a material.

I had been suffering  headache on and off…So i decided to check with the power of my lens.. I found an Opticals nearby.. which advertised Computerised eye check up…n dispenses all kind of optical products  in a great scale.. That was my mistake…to choose an optometrist on the first case..I shd have chosen an Opthomologist.. {my sincere apologies here,  for causing resentful displeasure for those real gud ones(Optometrist)}.  Since i dint preserve my previous prescription..i wanted to confirm my present power of my spectacles.  I was safely entrenched behind undeniable facts. And, here my new prescription says…the power on my left eye has raised to -1.25 from -1 and right one has -1.5 from -1 and there was a lil cylindrical power too. With this, i odered a new frame and lenses.   Soon after i received my glasses, i tried and i found it difficult to adapt with it.  The images were vague..or to say..perceptible only in an indefinitive way.  I complained the optometrist abt this and he said it is very usual when u change the glasses with new power..and asked me to bring it back if the problem exists for another two days… I left with a consent.

Once,  back home..i rather found difficulty with my new specs, where i found like wearing someother’s specs unlike my power.  Yet, i did waited for the next 2 days.  It rather aggravated my head ache to a certain extent.  It sounded reasonable for me to get back to the Optometrist to deal with the spectacles.  But, I gave back the thot and insisted myself to run through an Opthomologist to deal with my head ache..whereas i wanted to clear my anticipation..considereing, whether m running a migraine attack..as i had moderately similar symptoms.  Obtaining an appointment with an Opthomologist, I  happen to unveil the history to him without interruption.  Listening patiently to my description, he tried to rule out the actual cause of my head ache.  To fortify the diagnosis.. he exercised with his normal procedures to check with my power and then with my head ache to acertain the cause with the symptoms.  Later,  he prescribed few medicines for my wrecking head-ache for a week and for a CT-scan and a referral to a Neurologist, if my head-ache persists.  Before i leave, he made something distinctly perceptible to my ear, that… the power with both my eyes are -1 and not as prescribed in the Optometrist’s prescription. The aggravation of head-ache might be due to the incongruous effect of the newly prescribed lenses.  Staggered!!!

Obliviate my actual cause of head ache… What shd i do with these kind of Optometrist who are highly irresponsible of their job..where people trust them to be prescribed with their lenses even disregarding the highly qualified Opthomologists.  These Dipensing Opticians shd be entrusted for one’s care…when People depend on them, where they spend enough money to buy the frames and contact lenses..and more over to lend their own eyes with reliance on their integrity….rather than  leaving behind with their capricious response.

Aghast with my experience, to strengthen myself with some added piece of support…retaining my Opthal’s prescription i went on to another Optometrist to purchase a new lens.  But this time, before exhibiting the Opthal’s prescription…i insisted him to chk my power to interpret a reply as favorable. {My sincere apologies here to the Opthals..since m not deliberately doubting everyone in this case..i just wanted to counter-check with my problem}.  For christ sake, it elucidated me by furnishing the same as in the Doc’s prescription.  M happy that not all the Optometrists are inept.

And back with my head-ache, i got my CT-scan done..witht the Neurologist opinion…n found quite interestingly well.  It seemd that i needed to spend a CT-scan for my head-ache to vanish.  Nothing to worry…and m hale and hearty.

Samz 3rd B’day !!!!

Filed under: Its all abt my little one, My precious little Tacloo!!! — bhony @ 6:30 am

20th March

Samz Birthday was fabulous… We all had great time together… I had great pleasure in having my whole family there to celebrate my lil boyz B’day.  Flavour of the cake was chosen partly by Christy athai(aunty) for chocolate and partly by Raja mama(uncle) for butter scotch… It was really YUMMY!!!!

We had prayers before the knife intersects the cake.. Sam started with a big Blow…n everyone enjoyed the day with the Happy b’day song…

There was a precious gift for him from his dear friend Yuvan.. where he made effort to make a card by himself saying happy b’day…and with lot of Micky stickers of his choice…n One Big CAR sticker for sam… m surprised on him.. he made that coz sam likes car.. How lovely is my sweet lil darling Yuvan…

Also he received pretty lot of gifts from all his loved ones…where,  that occupied him for the next 3 days… It was all new to Sam.. like he realizes that he celebrates his B’day and everyone is around there to take part. He really enjoyed the day!!!

One more special thing on that day.  Sam also celebrated his B’day with 26 kids in an Orphanage. Holy Cross Children’s Home is located   30 kms away from our place.  The kids very happy to see the guests and very pleasing.

Samz day in Planetarium…

Filed under: Its all abt my little one, My precious little Tacloo!!! — bhony @ 7:38 pm

7th March 2009..

Its for quite some time, m thinking abt how to introduce abt the  Astronomy..n related stuffs to Sam.  I wonder how and when i, myself got exposed to all these when i was a kid.  There was much complexity to bring him the first knowledge abt our planets.  When i ask him the question..where do we live… He says Singapore…or India.. and if more specifically asked, he tries to construe in a particular way…that he lives in his granny’s place now..LOL

I endeavored to make him grasp the significance, implications or importance of our planet Earth.  Where, he cud only recognize the shape and colors on the globe.  It involves a great deal of effort to bring his attention on this part..

A conclusion or opinion reached by such contemplation is taking him to a Planetarium.. Its in the Science park which is put up in Adyar in chennai.  I had been to this place when i was doing my  schoolings.   An adorable n interesting place in chennai, where kids can learn the very essence of the science that deals with the material, universe beyond the earth’s atmosphere.  I wasn’t much sure, whether he cud sit in a place and look attentively on those pictures n videos which is absolutely unaccustomed to his part of learning, away from home.  This was the first time hez out in theater.  I apologize for underestimating him..

M astonished!!!  He did not move out his eyes..until the movie is over.  Itz a different kind of theater where the screen will be over the head and  the seats extremely pushed back.  And surrounding with darkness, goes on the movie…leaves us with a feeling of thrown and left undisturbed into the space..  It is as if from our small world we gazed upon our cosmic ocean from our pretty naked eyes .. Its a representation of the heavens by the use of a number of moving projectors.   My boy enjoyed the show..lying on me…saying …”Mommy, i can see the stars”… ” Thats a crescent”….   “There is the Sun” … Enjoying..without disturbing others.   The 45 minutes show went on describing a lot other than sun and the moon..which my lil boy cud comprehend then and there and elicit a response with questions.. I am very sure the show has definitely sown a seed into his mind abt our Solar system…

It will unambiguously help me to begin with the materials around the sun…when hez subjected to one.

Will you try a spoonful of this and tell me what you think of it?
