TweedleWink: Vocabulary World Cultures Early Learning Program

The second area (out of eight) that we focus on in our TweedleWink Right Brain Education schools is Vocabulary lessons.

The right brain sees words as shapes. The left brain sees words as objects that first need some decoding.

When you give a child a word flashcard, they'll first see the shape, and remember the shape. Then as you give them tools (we use phonics extensively) and present an association of the word with sound(s), they start to incorporate their left brain to read.

With Vocabulary lessons, what we try to do is plant seeds, so that your child's genius -- whatever passion that will emerge in terms of their particular motivations and partialities -- and the neural connections are made, nurtured and strengthened.

The third area of of focus in the eight areas in our Right Brain Education program is World Culture lessons.

With preparation, we take imaginary trips to different parts of the world to experience them (in our mind and mind's eye).

======================

In this video excerpt from a live presentation, Right Brain Master Trainer Pamela Hickein talks about how TweeedleWink uses Vocabulary exercises to "plant seeds" of concepts, objects and words that forge early neural connections in your child's brain. She then discusses how World Culture lessons help create an awareness of other people and places.

- Determining general brain dominances in your child
- Planting early brain neural connections
- How intelligences is related to greater neural connections
- How we present vocabulary lessons to introduce the linking of neural connections
- How the right brain learns
- How the left brain decodes what the right brain absorbs
- World Cultures in forging early connections with other people and places
- How we take "magic carpet rides"
- How the children have extended their journeys
