1 Introduction of the venue

This scene isMickey spells out the letters and sings the words🎤🔤

The lyrics of "What's in Your Basket?"

・hat, cat
・bear, chair
・bed, head
・flower, tower
・Please, ABCs

(DWE - Quote from "Sing Along")

It was made up of rhyming words,This song draws attention to the "sound" rather than the "letters.".

The Spelling Song helps shift your focus from "sounds" to "letters"There is.

DWE's teaching materials are based on songs that emphasize sound and are designed to help children learn to read letters naturally.

Children who use DWE can read books, listen to CDs, watch DVDs,Listen to music in a situation where the text naturally comes into contact with your eyesThis will be the case.

Even in right-brain education, it is important to "start with sounds and then move on to letters"This seems to overlap with what DWE is thinking.

It is also important for mothers to be clearly aware of the intention behind the creation of the teaching materials and what they want their children to learn by using these materials now, and to create a good learning environment for their children.

This time, please help your child to naturally understand and acquire the sounds and shapes of the alphabet.

2 Learn grammar

🌸Third person singular present tense (third person singular present tense)🌸

Example sentence 1) CAT spells “cat.”

(DWE - Quote from "Sing Along")

3 Column ~Learn English with rhythm!~

The song this time is "The Spelling Song," a rhythmic, easy-to-follow tune with rhymes.

DWE has a wide range of carefully designed teaching materials that allow students to naturally learn English meaning and grammar through the rhythm and sounds of songs.

The reason why you can learn English just by having fun singing is because there are so many ideas like this scattered throughout the song.

When mothers are able to think about the purpose behind creating DWE materials, they will be able to give meaning to their daily activities at home..

The lyrics of this song are:

CAT spells CAT.
・HAT spells HAT.
・MAT spells MAT.
・BAT spells BAT.

(DWE - Quote from "Sing Along")

It is as follows.

All the words have the same final sound and spelling, creating a fun rhythm.

The expression we will focus on this time is

CAT spells “cat.” Third person singular, present tense (third person singular present tense)

is.

The meaning of "CAT spells "cat.""

"CAT spells "cat.""

A literal translation of this sentence would be, "If you spell it C, A, T, it becomes cat."

It can also be translated as, "The spelling of cat is 'CAT'."

What is the third person singular present tense?

Now, let's take a look at the English rules hidden in this sentence.

The point is"spells"is.

This is the third person singular present tense of the verb "spell."

English verbs change form depending on the subject's person (who is doing the action) and number (single or plural).

And when the subject is third person singular, such as "he," "she," "it," or a "name," the rule is that present tense verbs take the suffix -s or -es.

Also, in this case, "CAT" (the spelling of "neko") is the subject, but in this case too it is treated as "third person singular."

By being exposed to many different patterns of third person singular subjects in this way, children will naturally learn to use the third person singular.

(example)
He likes apples.
She plays the piano.
The cat sleeps.

Why is the third person singular present tense important?

The third person singular present tense is one of the basic grammar points in English.
Some important functions of the third person singular present tense are:

■ Clarify the meaning
Verb inflections make it clearer who or what you're talking about. Using special verb forms with singular subjects makes the meaning of the sentence more precise.

■Make communication accurate
Using the third person singular present tense correctly can help you communicate more effectively, especially in academic and professional settings.

■ Structural features of language
The third person singular present tense is an important part of the English verb conjugation system and demonstrates the grammatical richness of the language. Subject-verb agreement is an important element in expressing the grammatical perfection of English.

However, there are some things to be aware of.
The rules for the third person singular present tense do not apply to modal verbs such as can, will, and must, as well as the present perfect and present continuous tenses.

Mastering the use of the third person singular present tense is a very important skill when learning English, as it will help you communicate accurately and increase your credibility in business and other situations.

【summary】

The third person singular present tense is a very important foundational part of English.

By using DWE materials, you can easily learn basic English by simply singing along to the rhythm..

In your daily life, try using the third person singular present tense while thinking, "Can I use the third person singular present tense in this situation?"

Moms should try to be aware of the process by which their children learn the third person singular present tense, and use this information to help them with their future English learning efforts.

Mother Goose with rimming

"Mother Goose" is a folk tale that is popular in England and America.children's songsThat's what I mean 🐱

Mother Goose has many rhythmic rhymes.is.

As children listen to and sing Mother Goose over and over again, they will pick up the sounds and rhythm of English.

The purpose of listening to Mother Goose isRather than "memorizing the meaning of words," the goal is to "get used to the unique rhythm and rhyme of English."

We've all had the experience of remembering the lyrics to Japanese nursery rhymes incorrectly, or finding out the real lyrics only after becoming adults.

I like to start the song "Acorns Rolling Around" with "Acorns Rolling Around, Doningredient(・)I always thought it was "Riko."
The correct lyrics are "Acorns rolling around, donguriBu(・)It wasn't until I became an adult that I found out her name was "Riko."

If you think about it, there is no such word as "Donguriko," but when I was a child I sang "Donguriko" without any hesitation.

In this way,The English version of Mother Goose is also for learning rhythm rather than the meaning of words.Let's remember that.

Mother Goose songs can be listened to on YouTube, and picture books that include songs are also available for purchase, so by linking them to related YouTube videos and picture books, you can help children attach meaning to the songs.
