技术支持：英语听说启蒙的好帮手——Big Fun
英语听说启蒙的好帮手——Big Fun
我在秣秣三岁的时候送他来沃德教育Oliver老师班级开始学习Big Fun，刚开始只是觉得他能坐的住了就让他跟小伙伴们在教室里进行英文浸润，不指望他有什么输出，但在这半年的时间里有无数个不经意的瞬间，他英文表达的流露让我感叹于这套教材的伟大，让我庆幸这么早的让他接触英文，而且使用的是先进的Big Fun教材，更是遇上了经验丰富永远让孩子保持好奇心的Oliver老师，可以说天时地利人和都占了！作为父母，在适当的时机给孩子提供需要的资源，不让自己以后因为耽误了孩子而后悔是多么的难得！
Annie~&~Momo
三岁启蒙——生理优势
Momo（秣秣）刚来沃德学英文的时候，还没有上幼儿园，但是非常渴望跟小朋友相处，第一次上课就是自己独立和老师同学们完成的，没有哭闹，也没有让家长陪同，整整一个半小时的时间，很开心的和Oliver老师、Busy Ant（手偶）做游戏，说英文，唱歌跳舞，还认识了pencil、marker和crayon。有的家长可能会问，我本身就是英语老师，是不是回家总自己教呀，但其实并没有。作为老师我恰恰清楚课堂的魅力，氛围的重要，在家里我顶多能让他死记硬背几个英文单词，常见的水果、动物、数字的英文都会背，但那只是记单词，不是学语言，除非每天都大量的练习这些单词，不然很快就忘记了。当我们把英文当作中文一样来学习，就会感受到：语言的学习，最重要是环境，在环境中理解，在需求中使用。我接触过很多家长，看到一本教材就会说，这里面的单词幼儿园都教过，太简单了，呵呵，时至今日，还会有家长用单词——仅仅用单词来衡量孩子的语言基础，殊不知，单词掌握再多，不会使用，对于语言学习就没有任何意义。比如很多孩子在很小的时候就认识苹果的英文是“apple”，可又有几个能在想吃苹果的时候说“I want an apple”呢？这就是学习和使用的脱节，这就把英文当成一个科目学习，而没有当作语言去运用的区别，这种方法对于启蒙阶段的孩子是十分有害的，这也是我从不在家里教Momo单词的原因，机械的重复没有意义。在他跟随Oliver学习了一个多月的有一天，下课后我们去吃饭，电梯里有个妈妈推着婴儿车，Momo指着车里的小婴儿说“妈妈快看，这是个BABY~~”虽然只是说出了一个简单的单词“BABY”，但我还是很惊讶，这是他学英文之后第一次主动地输出（爸爸每次都会问他上英语课教了什么，他通常都答不上来，当然了，在孩子思维里也不是去学知识的，只是唱唱跳跳做游戏而已嘛该怎么回答，亲爱的家长们这种提问方式不推荐哦）事后跟Oliver沟通，他说放学时确实留了一个作业“Find a Baby”，看，小家伙多有心！
教育原理：孩子长到了三岁时，就能模仿大人的发音、姿态、手势、自然的动作语言了。这时候，学习第二语言，等于水到渠成，无任何学习的困难和压力。在快乐的心态中，享受着学习的乐趣，吸收着知识，并将知识融会贯通，进行完整的表达。
Annie~&~Momo
用英文探索大自然
有一次上楼梯，Momo指着一只苍蝇说”Fly“，我趁机问他，”为什么Butterfly和Fly都会飞呢？“他想了一下说”因为他们都有翅“（估计还不会说翅膀的中英文，但已经懵懂的知道了原理）；还有一次姥姥说衣服晾在外面，上面有好几只”花大姐“，Momo马上说”Ladybug“，我问他”Ladybug住在哪里呢？“，他回答说”他们都住在Flower上“，然后开始唱”My Garden“那首英文歌自娱自乐。雨天过后，我会带Momo出去观察蜗牛，看到蜗牛爬过后的痕迹告诉他”Snails make trails.“对大自然的探索让他懂得了很多课堂上学不到的常识，用英文探索大自然又保持了他对英文的兴趣！
教材特色：在Big Fun的教材中，有一个环节叫做”Amazing“，专门带领孩子用英文探索大自然，平时我们觉得恶心的昆虫其实在孩子眼里是新奇的好玩的，平时大人走路都会踩到的蚂蚁孩子也会蹲下观察很久，对大自然的好奇心是孩子的天性，而认真、仔细地观察又是培养孩子专注力的一个好方法。
Annie~&~Momo
英文交际，学以致用
前几天Momo常年居住在美国的小姨姥回国探亲，家人一起相聚，相谈甚欢，我就跟Momo说，”小姨姥可是美国人哦“，Momo马上跟小姨姥说”HELLO~~“，跟我们说中文，跟美国的小姨姥用英文打招呼，丝毫没有觉得哪里不对。他小姨姥感到很惊讶，这么小的孩子就能这么自如地使用语言，接着问他”What's your name？“（你叫什么名字？），他回答”My name is Momo.“（我叫Momo。）”What's your teacher‘s name？“（你老师是谁？）”My teacher’s name is Oliver.“（我的老师是Oliver。）”Where do you go to school？“（你的学校是？）”I go to iWorld School.“（沃德。）短短几句话，让在座的亲戚都很惊讶，三岁的孩子可以简单的跟外国人交谈了，丝毫不怯场，要知道有的学生学了好几年英语，遇到老外就是张不开嘴。其实我也很惊讶，不是惊讶于Momo的回答，因为这些对话他跟外教几乎每节课都会在Big Fun Talking环节进行交流，他能答出来不奇怪，我是惊讶于我美国亲戚的提问，与我们课程设置的常见对话的内容和顺序一模一样（她绝对没有事先看我们的教材），这说明我们的Big Fun确实是原汁原味的西方教育的体现，是最贴近国外现实生活的英语启蒙教材。
教材特色：Big Fun Talking是教材中专门介绍日常对话的环节，通常在课堂上由外教与孩子们完成。通过自然的沟通交流，让孩子潜移默化的习得英文，真正做到把英语当成母语去运用。
当初的一个决定，让孩子受用终生！我庆幸自己没有错过孩子的启蒙时机，庆幸自己选择了Big Fun，庆幸Momo遇到了Oliver 老师和一班可爱的小伙伴，庆幸自己在沃德教育的大家庭中工作生活，我会继续发掘Momo学英文的闪光点，不断与大家分享！
