3 Preschool teaching aids

ParentsWorld August 2021 | Resources PW Magazine

With preschools countrywide shut for almost 16 months for fear of the novel Coronavirus pandemic, and online learning restricted to a mere one hour daily to protect youngest children from the downsides of digital screens exposure, a growing number of parents are resorting to homeschooling them. Early childhood care and education (ECCE) is vitally important to develop children’s foundational language, numeracy and cognitive skills. Here are 3 recommended apps for parents to develop the foundational language and maths skills of youngest children. Preschool All-in-One This app provides foundational learning in language and numeracy. It guides children through capital and lower case letters, basic numeracy, and cognitive skill-building and problem-solving activities. Other interesting activities to develop basic kindergarten skills include identifying alphabets and matching them with pictures of words that begin with the alphabet, tracing letters for handwriting practice, and memory-building games. This mini-version kindergarten also makes learning numeracy engaging through games, colouring pages and jigsaw puzzles. Download this free-of-charge app from Play Store for Android Moose Math Foundational maths learning is an essential component of early childhood education. The Moose Math app from the Duck Duck Moose series enables youngest children to develop arithmetic skills through five multi-level activities that teach counting, addition, subtraction, sorting and geometry. Activities include working in Puck’s Pet shop, the Moose Juice store and decorating buildings. Good grounding in maths at the foundational kindergarten stage enables children to smoothly transition to higher order math skills in primary and secondary school. Download this free-of-charge app from App Store for iPhones and iPads. Fish School All activities on this well-designed app are centred on groups of colourful fish, making it visually appealing to children aged above two years. The fish form shapes, numbers and illustrate different early childhood education concepts. The touch screen allows preschoolers to move the fish around and complete activities covering numbers identification, alphabets, shapes, matching objects and colours.
