Bela started attending the Galileo enrichment program for English and Math that is being offered at Toddlers Unlimited. The Galileo Enrichment Learning Program is an after school program for preschool and grade school students, and it aims to improve academic aptitude by cultivating a mastery of English and Math skills and developing an early love for learning.
She can actually start with the Galileo program when she turned three years old, but then I know December and January will be a busy month for us so I decided to enroll her to the program just this month. She attended a one week trial class on the last week of January and so far, we like the program.
According to the website of Galileo, the English program aims to equip the learner with the fundamental skills needed to understand English language in the long run while the Math program aims to equip the learners with the skills and mastery that is essential in understanding mathematics.
Bela attends class 3x a week and every session, Teacher Angelica (Bela’s Galileo teacher) have different interesting activities for Bela like tracing letters using sand, doing alphabet puzzles playing with flash cards, blocks and beads or any activity that will make learning English and Math fun.
Bela already has a good knowledge of her alphabet and numbers but one thing that I like about this program is they have worksheets that can practice Bela with her writing since writing is one thing that she really hates doing. She can’t sit still for more than five minutes to finish her worksheets every time we are doing her assignment at home so we really hope that this program will train her and prepare her for this coming school year since they will already have reading and writing when she starts school this June.
When Bela first brought home an assignment from her Galileo class I was challenging my mom if she can make Bela do her homework. My mom is a kinder teacher for 25 years and she said that nothing is impossible for her with her experience but then when we started to ask Bela to sit down with us and do her homework, it was really a big challenge for us since we can never really ask her to concentrate on what she is doing. Her assignment that time was to trace the letter B and to encircle the letter B’s that she can find and it took my mom three hours but she still was not successful with Bela.
That is why I decided to postpone my plan to buy a Chanel j12 and instead use the money that I was able to save to enroll Bela to the Galileo program. Hope the program will really help her prepare for Jr. Nursery.
