How my pre-school daughter learns English I have a daughter. She is 6 years old. In my country and my city particulary if you want that your child will go to particular school then your child must go to the preparing class to this school and you must pay for it. Studying at school is free in Russia, but we have additional fees inside the school for the security, gifts for teachers, some general staff as the same notebooks and other things. So my daughter goes to gymnasium school fo ther preparing. Gymnasium school means that several languages are taught there , the programm of many disciplines are deeper than at simple school, English are taught from the begining. She goes to that classes two times in a week. She learns Math, hand writing(Russian), actualy I don't know what is that but I watch homeworks and she draws some signs by a dot trace, and English. English is a bit weird for me because I've knew many new words. They are learnt by Learnig Stars Activity Book and Learning Stars Math Book. Those books are good. But the teacher gives them to learn weird verses that have together "I've got ..." and "I have got a doll". They distinguish "to jump" and "to hop", but as I know "to hop" is not popular word and "to jump" is more common. I try to help to my daughter my own way. We watch Peppa Pig cartoon on English, she's watched many series on Russian. We watch songs for kids on Youtube. I think that she will remeber words and constructions of English by natural way. As I've convinced that translations of many words are not correct and the true meaning is comprehendable through the context only.
