讀了《If I Ran for President》 他忍不住畫下民主黨的驢 和共和黨的象 |
《Peter And Jane》是我們英文的起點,他是從這套書開始,才真正對英文有了感覺,看得懂字、句,唸得出來。
接下來就是唸繪本,比起背單字、句型,讀繪本我和他都能獲得樂趣。
我們唸過 FREE eBook Library from Oxford Owl,CoolEnglish 裡的 Scholastic Bookflix。兩者都能聽它唸,再跟讀。有畫面、有文字,閱讀時圖文對照,對內容了解很有幫助,不只是在學英文。尤其 Oxford Owl 電子書品質很不錯。
但差不多都被我們唸完了,除了些目前對他來說太難的。Storyline Online 唸完後,再回頭去唸,無論是回味過去喜歡的繪本,還是挑戰以前覺得很難的書,應該都蠻有趣的。
在此記錄 Storyline Online 唸的繪本,補之前只留印象,沒留記錄的缺憾。從 Storyline Online 開始,我請他唸完「寫」下一句喜歡的句子,讀了這麼久了,也該動動筆,「寫」的時候就會意識到拼字、句子的結構。
當然他會挑最短的,看過幾句自己之前寫的句子後,他心裡也是會有個標準的。
以下有連結代表內容不錯的:
- Strega Nona 2023/1/10
這本超有趣!Tomie dePaola 的故事和畫,滿是義大利風情,讀者用義大利口音唸對話,咒語部分用「唱」的,同時用復古手風琴伴奏:
Bubble, bubble, pasta pot.
Boil me some pasta nice and hot.
I'm hungry and it's to sup.
Boil enough to fill me up. - Sophie's Masterpiece 2023/1/7
"Booties" cried Sophie. The young woman was going to have a baby. - When A Dragon Moves In 2023/1/1
With a dragon in your castle, you'll have a built-in marshmallow toaster. - Enemy Pie 12/31
在2022年最後一天讀完這本,完成今年讀完四十本的小心願。 - The House That Jane Built 12/27
Jane 六歲看到需要幫助的人,便埋下想做事改善世界的心願。最後她藉由建立 Hull House技能訓練所,幫助需要的人自立、改變社區風氣。(我喜歡作者把一些真實問題也寫出來,比如:有人破壞、有人偷東西,Jane 抓住那個偷東西準備破窗而逃的人,跟他說:「門在那裡,從門出去才不會受傷。」)
想起和飯粒弟上星期才看到的一則德國新聞:八年前德國接納難民,並讓他們上語言學校、技能訓練。八年後各國缺工,德國剛好有這些生力軍投入勞動市場。
而明天要考的國語〈一萬五千元的學生證〉,正好也談助人。女學生說當鋪老板是她的貴人,當鋪老板說女學生也是他的貴人,提醒他延續父親的熱心助人。
當飯粒弟唸完 Jane 的故事,問我:這故事是真的嗎?我不知道,沒想到再往下看,唸故事的人便說:It's true. 我們倆個張大眼睛,覺得好神奇:這影片會通靈嗎?
心裡懷抱希望,世界會回應你! - Zombies Don't Eat Veggies! 12/24
Mo是愛吃蔬菜的Zombie,但他的父母完全不喜歡,因此:Mo's heart sank to his toes.
我是很愛吃蔬果,但有時讀繪本會覺得其中有些想「教育」的意識型態,什麼時候會這麼覺得?當繪本中的情節不自然的時候。
比如殭屍一族就是吃肉,而繪本中小殭屍不一樣,他不愛。
或許有些事情並不是不自然,而是本來就存在,只是我沒「發現」。
但對於無中生有的「發明」,所有人造的事物,我會保持一點戒心,先觀察觀察再說。 - Memoirs of an Elf 12/23
「妳不知道 elf ?」他用吃驚的語氣問我。原來 elf 是精靈,電玩裡常出現的角色。但對我來說,它真是個生字。 - The rainbow fish 12/18
The more he gave away, the more delighted he became.
這本書出現面前多次,一直不想唸它,因為它殘留著不好的印象。今日再唸,還是不喜歡其他魚因為 rainbow fish 不願拔鱗片給他們,便集體排拒 rainbow fish。
若有人開口向你要東西,你就要給,這似乎有點奇怪。 - The kiss that missed 12/16
The king promised to stop always being in a hurry. - The coal thief 12/13
The mountain of coal had swallowed him up. - Remember to dream 12/11

The two major parties are the Democratic party and the Republican party. - Julius, the Baby of the World 2022/11/11
GA-A-A-A MAA-OOO MMOOO. Such a vocabulary! -
Never Play Music Right Next to the Zoo

由作者本人唸這本繪本,不,應該說是「唱」,還搭配了管弦樂團的演奏。很有趣又好聽!

The Empty Pot

Turkey Trouble
2022/10/28
"Oink, Oink, Oink" snorted Pig. "Holy cow ! Is that you, Turkey ?"
Storyline Online 其實是一段段 YouTube 影片,但它的字幕不是自動產生,至少英文不是,因此我們是看字幕唸。唸時要自己搶時機在斷句時按暫停,有時按慢了,字幕就跑走了。
很多繪本都是一個基本句型重覆出現,就像照樣造句。今天又按慢了,字幕跑走了,但類似的句子已重覆出現多次,於是我讓他試著自己說看看。有些漏字,像是: But looking [at] Pig g[i]ve Turkey a new idea. 沒有注意到時態。
唸下一本時,可以來試試:聽、讀幾次後,不看字幕唸,再對照字幕。 -

The Kissing Hand 2022/10/20
唸時已晚,他想來本簡單的,年級程度是 K - 1st、只有 5 分鐘。但唸完後,我們都覺得這本有點無聊。下次還是讀年級高一點的書。 -
The Night I Followed the Dog 2022/10/18
This is a place where dogs can be dogs.
唸到這句時,他問我:「不是要寫下一句?」
「對。就這句?」
「就這句。」
沒到他現在的 sense 已到這個程度,和我感受到的一樣,我也很喜歡這句。
詩有「詩眼」,故事核心是「梗」嗎? -
