Asia ~ Philippines

Monday, January 14, 2013

During the holiday break, my son had been learning all about our home country.  He had this sudden interest of learning the language and eager to learn our local songs.  So I had been playing Christmas songs in Filipino and been exposing him to our local shows as well.  As of now he has learned 5 Filipino songs, and can speak a few Tagalog words.

Learning about a country starts with the familiarity of its location on the map and how it looks like.

Hands on learning of the Philippine flag together with some play money (Peso).  Had to show him a miniature of our local fishing boat as most of our people are fishermen and a jeepney which is our country’s mode of public transportation.

And a bunch of cards and books about fruits, landmarks etc. I purchased these books during our vacation and they were mostly folktales and stories I have read during my primary years. My son loves to listen to these stories and insist that I should read them in Tagalog (our national language).

At home, I mostly cook Filipino dishes.  Among my son’s favorite are Adobo, Sinigang and Crispy Fried Dilis (Anchovy).

    I love your blog and this post! :) So glad to see another Filipino homeschooler. We just started homeschooling and I came across your blog. I need to get my dad to send me some books from the Philippines. Did you make those cards or did you buy them there too?

      Hello there kababayan! Thank you for dropping by. All materials are from the Philippines, my sister in law sent it to us and at the same time I bought some books when we went home last year. Books were from Fullybooked and the cards/materials were from National Bookstore. But I will be making some materials in the future as well. Feel free skimming my blog for ideas in your homeschool :) Goodluck!
