Activity Books Completed in August 2013

This is one of the most productive months for a long, long time... here is a rundown:

#1 - Kumon: Amazing Mazes
I purchased this book over a year or 2 ago, and only recently, took it out and let Ian do on a regular basis since he is now able to complete the abacus homework at a much faster pace (meaning, more time to do home-based worksheets).  The last few exercises got him thinking a bit, as I caught him erasing and tracing back a few times.



#2 - Usborne Travel Sticker Book
Another joint production by Ian and Isabelle.  Thanks to Ian's guidance, Isabelle began to paste the stickers less randomly on the scenes.



#3 - Kumon Let's Color!
This was Isabelle's first Kumon workbook.  Trying to teach her to colour was such a huge challenge!  She had her own mindset, and once she decided to use a colour, she would stick to it no matter what we tried to tell her to use.  Most of the time, she would pick her favourite colour and scribble away.  At times, she would also insist on us using a colour that she had chosen for us.  Grrrr...



#4 - Chinese Sticker Books
Purchased these 2 series of sticker books from a chinese website.  They turned out to be fairly interesting.  Isabelle could match the stickers to the shapes in the book most of the time.





There are other workbooks that are work-in-progress. Hopefully, we will be able to complete them by the end of September.
