Words recognition with 字宝宝

Last year, I was given a pack of 字宝宝 1A by a good friend of mine. I find it pretty good in terms of the card size and the characters were based on the local Chinese syllabus. I went on a hunt for 1B and found it at Popular.


Depending on how you want to utilise these cards. I used them as flashcards. I will normally go through the whole stack with Xav, filtering out those characters he could read or could not.

I have also placed a transparency over the cards and get Xav to fill in the numbers for the correct sequence of the strokes.

For  words that he could read and write when I gave him Ting Xie (aka spelling). I will get him to place the cards into the wall chart according to the number or strokes that particular character has. These are the current words he knew and I hope I can warm up my  engine faster to engage more time into teaching him.


For words he could read but could not write, I got him a square exercise book and wrote the characters in accordance to the stroke and got him to practise his writing.
