He implementado las rutinas con mis hijos desde que eran bebes, y me han funcionado maravillosamente.  Ahora que son mayorcitos, las rutinas los mantienen al corriente con tareas (deberes), proyectos del colegio, y las obligaciones en casa.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"&gt;Since I am not a natural-born organized person, I need routines to keep some order in my home. I have implemented routines with my children since they were babies, and they have worked wonderfully for us. Now that my children are older, routines help them keep up with homework, projects, and chores.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;En este link, encontraras una lista de deberes que puedes implementar en casa.  Para los peques que aun no saben leer, estan los dibujos que le indicaran exactamente lo que tienen que hacer por la manana y por la noche. Tambien encontraras una lista para los mayores.  Yo utilizo una para mi hijo de 9, y la otra para mi pre-adolescente de 11. Puedes adaptar esta lista segun tus necesidades.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"&gt;The following link contains a chore list that you can start using at home.  For the little ones who do not know yet how to read, there are pictures to indicate exactly what they are supposed to do mornings and nights. You will also find a list for the older children.  I use one for my 9-year-old son, and another one for my 11-year-old pre-teen daughter. You can modify it to meet your needs.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://groups.google.com/group/mariposamontessoribilingualblog/web/Daily%20chores%20chart.doc"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;

&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1 pasta de dientes (el tubo mas pequeno que se encuentre)&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1 vaso&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1 esponja&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2 o 3 toallitas de manos para secarse&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"&gt;Meterials:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1 tray&lt;br /&gt;1 toothbrush for each participant&lt;br /&gt;1 toothbrush holder (if you can buy one)&lt;br /&gt;1 tooth paste (the smallest tube you can find)&lt;br /&gt;1 small glass&lt;br /&gt;1 sponge&lt;br /&gt;3 small towels&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;Se invita al nino a trabajar en este ejercicio diciendo: "Hoy vamos a aprender a lavarnos los dientes"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"&gt;Invite the child to work with this exercise by saying: "Today we're going to learn how to brush our teeth"&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;Se lleva la charola al lavamanos en el bano, y se coloca sobre el mostrador. Es recomendable tener un banquito (stool) y un espejo frente al nino.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"&gt;Take the tray to the bathroom sink, and put it on top of the counter.  I recommend having a stool and a mirror for the child.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Lo siguiente se hace en silencio, con movimientos lentos y exagerados:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"&gt;Then you proceed to give your presentation in silence and with exaggerated, slow movements:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1.Se toma el vaso y se llena de agua 3/4, para no derramar. Se vuelve a dejar en la charola.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. Take the glass and fill it with water to 3/4 to avoid spills. Leave glass on tray.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;2.Se saca el cepillo y se le pone la pasta muy lentamente, exagerando los movimientos y poniendo solo un poquito de pasta.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"&gt;2. Take toothbrush out of container, and put a little bit of toothpaste very slowly, exaggerating your movements.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. Se empieza a cepillar los dientes, (por supuesto que para esta presentacion se necesita un cepillo individual para cada participante). El orden es el siguiente:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"&gt;3. Start brushing your teeth first (of course there must be a toothbrush for each participant). Follow the following order:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;   a) los dientes superiores de arriba hacia abajo&lt;br /&gt;b) los dientes inferiores de abajo hacia arriba&lt;br /&gt;c)Los molares superiores e inferiores en movimiento circular&lt;br /&gt;d)Todos los dientes por dentro, es decir por la parte donde los toca la lengua.&lt;br /&gt;e)Y por ultimo, la lengua y el paladar.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"&gt;a) top teeth brush from top to bottom&lt;br /&gt;b)bottom teeth brush from bottom to top&lt;br /&gt;c) molars brush in circular motion&lt;br /&gt;d) Both upper and bottom teeth brush in the inside (where tongue touches them)&lt;br /&gt;e) Last, brush the tongue and the upper wall.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4. Por ultimo se enjuaga varias veces hasta que se vaya la pasta de dientes.  Hay que ensenar al nino como enjuagarse correctamente.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"&gt;4. Rinse several times until toothpaste dissappears. You must show the child to rinse correctly.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5. Se seca la boca con la toalla, se enjuaga el cepillo, se vuelve al porta-cepillos, se seca el vaso con la misma toalla, y se limpia cualquier gota o mancha con la esponja.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"&gt;5. Dry your mouth with the towel, rinse the toothbrush, put it back in the toothbrush holder, dry the glass with the towel,  and clean up any spills with the sponge.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6. Por ultimo se reemplaza la toalla con una limpia, para que el ejercicio quede listo para la proxima persona o la proxima presentacion.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"&gt;6. Last, replace the wet towel with a clean one, so the exercise is ready for the next child or the next presentation.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ahora el nino esta listo para intentarlo el solito. No se debe dejar al nino hacerlo hasta que la presentacion se ha dado completa. Una vez que el nino termina de lavarse los dientes y limpiarlo todo, se hace lo siguiente:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"&gt;Now the child is ready to try by him/her self. You must not let the child try until you have completed the presentation.  Once the child finishes brushig his/her theeth and clean up everything, you can do the following:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;7. Se explica al nino que esto debe hacerse siempre despues de comer, o por lo menos dos veces al dia. Se puede dar una leccion de lo importante que es la higiene bucal, y de no tenerla, como se puede llegar a producir las caries.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"&gt;7. Explain to the child this should be done right after every meal, or at least two times a day. Give the child a lesson on the importance of oral hygine, and when we do not practice it, we can get cavities.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;8. Se devuelve todo a su sitio original y se le da las gracias al nino por su participacion. Dile que puede repetir el ejercicio tantas veces como lo desee.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"&gt;8. Return everything back to the shelf, or its special place, and thank the child for his/her participation.  Tell him/her to do this exercise as many times as he/she wishes.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7312644341725066346-5562535922086184219?l=mariposamontessoriblog.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://mariposamontessoriblog.blogspot.com/feeds/5562535922086184219/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://mariposamontessoriblog.blogspot.com/2009/09/lavarse-los-dientes.html#comment-form' title='7 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7312644341725066346/posts/default/5562535922086184219'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7312644341725066346/posts/default/5562535922086184219'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://mariposamontessoriblog.blogspot.com/2009/09/lavarse-los-dientes.html' title='Lavarse los dientes'/><author><name>Sandra Lourdes Candel</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10533286875112660796</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_6ufjKGpBxVg/SoJ0T_s4CKI/AAAAAAAAABg/PnJ73M7lzY8/S220/IMG_1805.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_6ufjKGpBxVg/Srh8dDHZggI/AAAAAAAAAG8/ZjLsO9NWv0g/s72-c/IMG_3567.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>7</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7312644341725066346.post-4973192045961746889</id><published>2009-08-18T21:12:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-08-18T21:21:42.679-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Anuncios / Announcements'/><title type='text'>Me desaparecere por un par de dias</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(0, 0, 153);font-size:180%;" &gt;I'll be gone for a couple of days&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;Queridas amigas, desaparecere por un par de dias, pues este blog increiblemente lo he estado escribiendo desde una habitacion de hotel en Las Vegas... hoy por fin celebro que tengo una casa a donde mudarme.

Vamos a verter (vaciar, trasvasijar) arroz".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;1. Invite the child to work with you, and name the activity. Say "today we're going to work with the Pouring Rice exercise"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:verdana;font-size:100%;"  &gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;2. Lleva la charola con los materiales a la mesa, y pide al nino que se siente al lado tuyo y te observe calladamente mientras le das la presentacion. Pidele que ponga sus manos sobre sus piernas.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. Take the tray with the materials to a table, and ask the child to sit right next to you and observe you quietly while you present the exercise. Ask him/her to put his/her hands on his/her lap.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:verdana;font-size:130%;"  &gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;3. Toma la jarra del arroz con la mano dominante (derecha, si eres diestra, izquierda si eres zurda)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);font-size:100%;" &gt;3. Take the pitcher with the rice with your dominant hand (right if you're right-handed, with your left if you're left-handed)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:verdana;font-size:130%;"  &gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4. Lentamente pon tu otra mano justo debajo de la boquilla de la jarra, para sujetarla mejor, y con mucho cuidado, con movimientos lentos, empieza a vaciar el arroz a la jarra vacia.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);font-size:100%;" &gt;4. Slowly put your other hand&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:verdana;font-size:100%;"  &gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"&gt; under the spout of the pitcher, for better support, and very carefully, with slow movements, begin pouring the rice into the empy pitcher.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Observa el movimiento correcto:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Observe the correct movement:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:verdana;font-size:100%;"  &gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_6ufjKGpBxVg/SofKZ6I5cQI/AAAAAAAAAE4/-j407ebgoNc/s1600-h/IMG_3565.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_6ufjKGpBxVg/SofKZ6I5cQI/AAAAAAAAAE4/-j407ebgoNc/s320/IMG_3565.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5370483627114721538" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);font-family:verdana;font-size:100%;"  &gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:verdana;font-size:100%;"  &gt;5. Procura que no se tire ningun grano fuera de la jarra. Tus movimientos deben ser lentos, exagerados, cuidadosos, &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;font-family:verdana;font-size:100%;"  &gt;y completamente en silencio&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:verdana;font-size:100%;"  &gt;. El nino aprende mas de tus movimientos, que de tus palabras.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:verdana;font-size:100%;"  &gt;5. Try not to spill any grain outside of the pitcher. Your movements must be slow, exaggerated, careful, and completely silent. Your child will learn more from your movements than from your words.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:verdana;font-size:100%;"  &gt;6. Si por alguna razon se tira el arroz fuera de la jarra, detente, recoge hasta el ultimo grano de arroz y devuelvelo a la jarra, y luego continua. No permitas que el nino siga trabajando sin antes haber recogido todo el arroz, asi le ensenaras orden.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:verdana;font-size:100%;"  &gt;6. If for any reason you or the child spill rice, stop, pick up every last grain of rice and put it in the pitcher, then continue pouring.  Do not allow the child to continue until he has picked up all the rice, that way you will be teaching him neatness.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:verdana;font-size:100%;"  &gt;7. Deja que el nino lo intente tan pronto como el nino este listo y cuantas veces quiera. Recuerda que no debes corregirlo, es muy importante. Deja que el lo intente aunque no lo haga perfectamente, con practica, lo hara correctamente. Repite la presentacion la proxima vez, si crees que el nino la necesita de nuevo.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:verdana;font-size:100%;"  &gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;7. Let the child try it as soon as the child feels he/she is ready and for as many times as the child wants. Remember not to correct him, this is very important. Let him do it even if it is not perfect, with practice, he/she will do it right. Repeat the presentation again next time if you feel the child needs it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:verdana;font-size:100%;"  &gt;8. El ultimo paso es observar el trabajo terminado, y luego llevar todo de vuelta al sitio que corresponde, que normalmente suele ser en una estanteria o en algun lugar especifico de la casa. Dile al nino que puede trabajar con este ejercicio cuando el lo desee, pero que debe regresarlo al mismo sitio para encontrarlo siempre alli. Nunca se deben dejar los materiales en la mesa donde se ha estado trabajando.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);font-family:verdana;font-size:100%;"  &gt;8.. The last step is to observe the finished work, and take everything back to its place, which shoud be on a shelve, or in a special part of your house. Tell your child he/she can work with the exercise whenever he/she wishes, but he/she needs to put it back every time. Never leave the materials on the table where you've been working.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:verdana;font-size:100%;"  &gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:verdana;font-size:100%;"  &gt;Siempre practica el ejercicio antes de dar la presentacion al nino. Espero que te haya gustado, y que lo practiques con tu hijo ya mismo. DEJAME TUS COMENTARIOS, DEJA TUS PREGUNTAS O DIME QUE DESEAS APRENDER.&lt;br /&gt;Estare esperando!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:verdana;font-size:100%;"  &gt;Always practice the exercise and master it before presenting it to the child.  I hope you liked the exercise and you work with your child right away.  LEAVE ME YOUR COMMETS, ASK ME QUESTIONS OR TELL ME WHAT YOU NEED TO LEARN.&lt;br /&gt;I'll be waiting!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:verdana;font-size:100%;"  &gt;En el proximo blog aprenderemos a verter liquidos, eso es todo por hoy.;)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);font-family:verdana;font-size:100%;"  &gt;On my next blog we will learn to pour liquids.

El proposito es que el nino adquiera auto-estima, y sea un miembro util del grupo en el que vive y de su sociedad.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-size:85%;" &gt;Cada una de las actividades de la Vida Practica tiene un doble proposito, pues mietras se le ensenan al nino actividades de la vida diara, a la vez tambien se desarrollan otras funciones como la coordinacion viso-motora, aumentar la concentracion, y trabajar ordenadamente siguiendo paso a paso una secuencia.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;  Se puede encontrar un excelente articulo en espanol en este link:  &lt;a href="http://www.peterson.edu.mx/novedades/campus_cuajimalpa/kindervidapractica/vidapractica_template.htm"&gt;Articulo sobre Vida Practica.&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;WHAT ARE EXERCISES OF PRACTICAL LIFE?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Exercises of Practical Life are those designed to help the child become more independent, and they involve the care of self, care of the environment, good manners, and social skills. The purpose or these exercises is to develope self esteem, and to help the child be a contributing member of the group he lives in and of society.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);font-size:85%;" &gt;Each one of the exercises in Practical Life has a double purpose, while the child is learning to do day-to-day activities, he/she is learning at the same time eye-hand coordination, longer attention spans, and working step-by-step in sequence.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You can find an excellent article about this topic in the following link: &lt;a href="http://www.infomontessori.com/practical-life/introduction.htm"&gt;The Purpose of Practical Life.&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-size:85%;" &gt;En el siguiente blog les mostrare un ejercicio de la Vida Practica muy facil de practicar en casa.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"&gt;On my next blog I will show you a very simple Practical Life exercise that you can do at home.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7312644341725066346-1071236348856488513?l=mariposamontessoriblog.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://mariposamontessoriblog.blogspot.com/feeds/1071236348856488513/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://mariposamontessoriblog.blogspot.com/2009/08/ejercicios-de-la-vida-practica.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7312644341725066346/posts/default/1071236348856488513'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7312644341725066346/posts/default/1071236348856488513'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://mariposamontessoriblog.blogspot.com/2009/08/ejercicios-de-la-vida-practica.html' title='Ejercicios de la Vida Practica'/><author><name>Sandra Lourdes Candel</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10533286875112660796</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_6ufjKGpBxVg/SoJ0T_s4CKI/AAAAAAAAABg/PnJ73M7lzY8/S220/IMG_1805.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_6ufjKGpBxVg/Soe0U4XdodI/AAAAAAAAAEA/gzWScsFkRdw/s72-c/IMG_3485.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7312644341725066346.post-6571542495415284052</id><published>2009-08-14T13:09:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-08-14T16:22:10.807-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Educacion en casa/Homeschool'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Geografia / Geography'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Montessori Education'/><title type='text'>Los Continentes - Extension 1</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"&gt;The Continents - Extension 1&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_6ufjKGpBxVg/SoXeBqrPLQI/AAAAAAAAAD4/LFPBbXI0JiY/s1600-h/IMG_3644.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_6ufjKGpBxVg/SoXeBqrPLQI/AAAAAAAAAD4/LFPBbXI0JiY/s320/IMG_3644.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5369942250926058754" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-size:100%;" &gt;Despues de haber terminado nuestros continentes, &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-size:100%;" &gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;y de haber aprendido los nombres&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;, &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;trabajaremos con el nino para que haga su propio mapa. No se debe hacer el mapa antes de que el nino aprenda sus continentes, primero, porque se debe terminar cada trabajo antes de iniciar uno nuevo, y segundo, porque el hacer el mapa sera un incentivo para que el nino aprenda sus continentes. Una vez aprendido todo... manos a la obra!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);font-size:100%;" &gt;After finishing our continents map, &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;and after learning the names of the continents&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;, &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"&gt;we will work with our child on making his/her very own map.&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"&gt;You should not work on your map before learning the continents, first: because you should teach the child to finish one work before starting a new one; and second: because this will be an incentive for the child to learn his/her continernts.   Once the names have been learned... let's begin working on our map!!!!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_6ufjKGpBxVg/SoXGELHntpI/AAAAAAAAADQ/QwpI2eylX94/s1600-h/IMG_3514.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_6ufjKGpBxVg/SoXGELHntpI/AAAAAAAAADQ/QwpI2eylX94/s320/IMG_3514.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5369915905715713682" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;1.

Instrucciones&lt;/span&gt; /&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153); font-weight: bold;"&gt;Instructions&lt;/span&gt;:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;a) Traza los continentes en el papel, si quieres hacer el proceso mas facil, simplemente imprimelos en el siguiente link:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"&gt;Trace the continents on the paper, to make the process easier, simply print the map on the following link:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.outline-world-map.com/outline-transparent-world-map-b1b"&gt;Continentes Mapa / Continents map&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_6ufjKGpBxVg/SoXXTPFbNPI/AAAAAAAAADg/tYinmTvRU3s/s1600-h/IMG_3515.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_6ufjKGpBxVg/SoXXTPFbNPI/AAAAAAAAADg/tYinmTvRU3s/s320/IMG_3515.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5369934856175957234" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;b) Una vez que termines de trazar los continentes, o que imprimas el mapa, deja que el nino lo pinte con las pinturas correctas. Si es un mapa pequeno, procura que la mesa o el piso donde se pinta este protegido con un mantel de plastico por debajo o papel periodico.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"&gt;Once the map has been traced, or printed,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"&gt; let the child&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"&gt;paint it with the right colors. If it is a small map, protect your table of floor with a vinyl mat underneath or newspapers.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_6ufjKGpBxVg/SoXapg-mf8I/AAAAAAAAADo/3078QliKwFg/s1600-h/IMG_3517.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_6ufjKGpBxVg/SoXapg-mf8I/AAAAAAAAADo/3078QliKwFg/s320/IMG_3517.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5369938537471180738" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;c) El ultimo paso es preparar las etiquetas para el mapa.  Escribe los nombres de los continentes en las pegatinas, y pide al nino que las coloque en el continente correcto. No lo hagas tu, el nino debe saber colocarlas. Dale ayuda solo si te la pide.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"&gt;The last step&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"&gt; is to prepare labels for the map.  Write the names of all the continets on the labels, read the label to the child and let him/her put the label on the right continent.  Do not offer help unless the child needs it.  He/She should be able to recognize all the continents.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;El mapa esta terminado !!!  Observa la cara de satisfaccion de la nena... por supuesto, lo ha hecho todo ella solita ! Y yo, esta claro que soy una madre super-orgullosa ;)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"&gt;The map is finished !!!

Empieza por mostrar el nombre de 2 o 3 continentes a la vez utilizando la leccion en tres tiempos como te lo estoy mostrando. Por ejemplo: escoge Norteamerica, Africa y Europa.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 102);"&gt;Start by teaching the name of two or three continents using the trhee-period lesson as I will show you. For example: pick North America, Africa, and Europe.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. Ensena al nino a decir el no&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;mbre, levanta el continente y muestraselo mientras le dices: "Este es Norteamerica, repite conmigo, NORTEAMERICA" luego de repetirlo 2 o 3 veces, devuelves el continente a su sitio y levantas Africa, mientras se lo muestras ensenale el nombre: "Este es Africa" repitelo unas cuantas veces, luego devuelvelo a su sitio. Y asi susesivamente.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 102);"&gt;Teach the child how to say the name of the continent by picking it up while you tell him/her: "This is North America, repeat with me, NORTH AMERICA" after you say it 2 or 3 times put it back and pick up Africa, show the name: "This is Africa" have him/her repeat several times and put it down. Repeat the process for the remaining continents.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_6ufjKGpBxVg/SoSzgMcS4UI/AAAAAAAAACo/g0f7nPyVBnQ/s1600-h/IMG_1057.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 291px; height: 194px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_6ufjKGpBxVg/SoSzgMcS4UI/AAAAAAAAACo/g0f7nPyVBnQ/s320/IMG_1057.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5369614021409562946" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 102);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;4. Deja que el nino manipule los continentes dejando que los ponga en su sitio correcto y armando  el rompecabezas. Es una buena idea que tengas una muestra para que el pueda ver el sitio correcto. Te recomiendo que imprimas otra vez el mapa de los continentes en el link que te he dado antes, y esta vez colorealo para que quede como muestra. De esta manera el nino no necesitara de tu ayuda, sino que podra guiarse solito mediante el mapa.  !EVITA CORREGIRLO! solo observalo, con la practica lo hara correctamente.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"&gt;Let the child manipulate the continents by letting him/her put them in their correct places and working with the puzzle. It's a good idea to have a "master" map, so that the child can see where every continent goes. I recommend printing an extra copy of the continents outline from my link above, and color it neatly with the correct continent colors so the child has a sample. This way the child won't need your help, but he will be able to work independently. DO NOT CORRECT HIM/HER! just observe, with practice, he will do it correctly.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;5. Repite la leccion tantas veces como sea necesario hasta que el nino haya aprendido el nombre de los continentes. Puede tomar dias o incluso semanas.
