What is the Glenn Doman early education method?
Glenn Doman is an early education method applied to infants to 6 years old, named after its founder – Professor Glenn Doman. The method mainly aims to stimulate the development of the two hemispheres of the brain using Flashcards or Dotcards.
Professor Glenn Doman pointed out that every child possesses a certain genius potential. And the golden period for children to absorb and develop best is the first 6 years of life. When a child is 2 years old, the brain has formed 80%. When a child is 5 years old, the brain is 90% complete. And at the age of 5-6, the child’s brain only develops an additional 10%. Therefore, theGlenn Doman method was born. As an effective solution to awaken the potential in each child’s brain. Early childhood education also helps shape their personality and future abilities.
The effects of theGlenn Doman method include: helping children memorize, think logically and process everything proactively and flexibly. By teaching through visual aids such as flashcards and dotcards, children will become interested in learning. As well as processing all information in the most natural way. When children feel like they are “learning while playing”, they will become interested in learning. Children will be more proactive in learning. Educating children according to theGlenn Doman educational method will help children develop comprehensively. Children will acquire necessary skills such as logical thinking, flexible language, and knowledge about many aspects of life.
Application of Glenn Doman in teaching at FAIRYSCHOOL
The Glenn Doman early education method integrates many advantages to create an optimal nurturing and development process for children. At Fairy School, this method is applied in teaching children to read, learn math and the world around them early. Children learn how to interact flexibly in two ways with increasing difficulty appropriate to their age. During the learning process, teachers will change the form of organization by combining card swapping and games to maintain concentration and interest. With the right method, children will gradually realize a lot of useful and surprising knowledge through each lesson, which will make them extremely excited and inspire them to learn..
By using the above method, not only will children become smart, healthy and happy, but through the method, it will also help children gain lifelong self-learning skills and become more attached to teachers, friends and family.
Thus, with the method, Glenn Doman, Fairy School wants to train children’s language skills through many senses (hearing – seeing – touching), thereby helping children become more interested in reading activities and be bolder and more confident in communication.
