【序言】 自从我们的先祖从非洲深处走来,人类已经在地球上栖息了几百万年。但直到宇航员飞出太空的惊鸿一瞥,我们才得以目睹这个球形星体的整体面貌。 “不识庐山真面目,只缘身在此山中”。只有当一个人能够突破母国文化所默认的范畴,TA才能获得更开阔的胸襟、更自由的灵魂,同时对母国文化也会有更客观和丰富的看法。 语言学习绝不仅仅是词语、句子、对话那么简单;它一头连着思维方式,另一头连着文化与视野。它也不仅仅是孩提时的孤立游戏,而是一个牵涉甚广的系统工程,最终将影响到一个人的价值观、思维方式、文化视野和审美能力。 既然会是一件严肃而长远的事情,我们希望孩子能做好持之以恒的心理准备。曾国藩说:“结硬寨,打呆仗”。世界上没有哪条捷径能好过持续不断的坚持。凡能“日拱一卒、寒暑不辍”的孩子,必能有所成就。 所谓教育,就是把所学的知识都忘掉之后,留下来的东西。让我们来假设:如果孩子们把从小小英语所学的知识全部忘掉,我们希望他们身上能留下一些什么呢?我们希望留下开阔的视野、深入思考的习惯;我们希望留下一种包容的态度、一颗好奇的心...... 【小小英语自然拼读】 自然拼读系列以培养独立阅读者为目标(Independent Reader), 通过拼读学习,单词记忆,趣味阅读故事等在线手段,辅助以线下场景训练,共同达到此目的。 该系列共有4个Level: Level1是26个字母的认知拼读,同时认识104个单词; Level2是元音字母的认知拼读,同时记忆100+单词; Level3是辅音的认知拼读,100+单词; Level4是其它常见音所在单词的记忆; 此APP为Level3。 学完大概需要3个月时间,同时也可以配合我们的纸质教材(包括阅读材料)同步学习,效果尤佳。 另外,小小英语已上线了主线课程,单词句型全掌握, 应用商店内搜索小小英语下载. 【关于我们】 语言的学习,一头连着思维方式,另一头连着文化与视野。它不仅仅是孩提时代的孤立游戏,而且是一个牵涉甚广的系统工程,最终将影响一个人的价值观、思维方式、文化视野和审美能力。 小小英语汇聚来自清华大学、北京外国语大学的顶级语言学专家团队,依据全球权威通行的ESL体系,并整合华东师范大学的积极教育心理学系统,为二语儿童量身定制3-8岁线下启蒙课程。 我们针对中国幼童的特点,整合英语语言学、学前教育学、婴幼儿发展心理学等各学科专业理念,结合移动互联网技术、人工智能技术,为二语孩子提供适合的启蒙教育体系。帮助孩子建立跨文化全球视野,做世界公民。 最最重要的,我们希望留下坚持不懈的恒久之心、寒暑不辍的行事习惯。既不被外部的困难所阻断,也不被内心的懈怠所诱惑。凡有恒心、风雨无阻的孩子,终将获得时间馈赠的礼物。 【联系我们】 小小英语全国加盟体系已全面开放合作中,详情访问:https://www.mylittleenglish.com 个人用户: QQ: 3207086520 Email: 3207086520@qq.com 机构合作咨询: 在线咨询:https://www.mylittleenglish.com
