The tricks you need to help your child to learn numbers and letters.

During early childhood education, They begin to lay the foundations for many areas and areas of life of small. One of these areas is literacy, that does not mean anything other than the union of two processes such as reading and writing.

I do not want to get into too much detail about definitions and theories, there are many authors who argue that we need to develop from writing letters, syllables followed by, words, etc. While others argue that it should be done it is to take the most complex structures and "desmigarlas" to understand them better.

What is certain is that during the early childhood education your children will work the directionality of letters, therefore, it is good that so you can help them know what it is and how it is done.

The directionality is nothing but the quality that has an element to move or go into a direction. Of course, there are many elements which are characterized by said quality, although one of the most studied forms directionality occurs in writing. It is therefore important, that from small we teach us a correct address of the graphs.

In the document that you have below, I indicated with arrows and red, the direction of the letters, both uppercase and lowercase.

Letters directionality

Not only the letters have a direction to follow to make the correct spelling. Also the numbers have. In the following document you indicated the direction thereof.

Surely at this time you will be thinking that this is very interesting, but how you can practice the directionality of letters without boring your children finish tokens or similar activities. As well, to practice the direction of the letters you have several alternatives.

First, you can do with more home methods but very effective as play trace the letters in flour, Park in the sand, go placing lentils or any other food until we form letters, etc. Any of these systems is for your son internalize the letter, while playing, experiment with your body and develops fine motor skills.

Another method or system, are applications that can be found for both the computer and to the tablet or iPad.

From my point of view, applications can be found on the Internet at this time are rather slow and not very dynamic, but at least I used to go to practice. Coming up next, I leave links several games for you practice with your little ones. If you know of any interesting I'll be happy that you share with us.

Disponéis applications is, that first shows you as the stroke of the letter is made and, later, It offers you the opportunity to do it yourself.

This other application, It offers children the spelling of letters, but it does not give the opportunity to practice them 🙁

Here you have, another game that you can practice tracing letters.

Of course, disponéis also applications for both Android and iPad, you can practice with the directionality of letters with your children.

On the web Applicaditos, disponéis information on these applications, the types of devices that can download them, etc. I am sure you will be very useful to practice this and other areas of early childhood education.

Kisses to all.
