How to Sign with Babies with Terry the Monkey: British Sign Language for children
Learn how to sign with your baby with the latest title in the popular Terry the Monkey series of sign language books for children. Signs in this book include everything your baby will need in order to communicate their needs and share their observations of the world around them. As Joe Jacobs explains, ‘Most babies say their first words at around 12 months’ old, but babies are able to sign from as young as 7 months’ old. The muscles required for speech, in the throat and larynx, take longer to develop than the hand and arm muscles needed to sign. My own children began signing at around 8 months’ old. Signing can significantly reduce frustration and gives you an insight into your baby’s thoughts months before they can speak.’This book contains all the signs you will need to teach your baby how to communicate their needs and observations, including milk, mummy, daddy, more, hug, I love you, park, swings, toys, funny, play, brother, sister, wash hands, please, sleep, bed, bath, coat, hat and many more. The Terry the Monkey books have featured in Little London magazine and Familes, the magazine of the National Deaf Children’s Society, as well as limpingchicken.com, the world’s most popular deaf blog. Joe’s work has been praised by former children’s laureate Julia Donaldson, BBC’s Steve Backshall and Oscar winner and deafness awareness campaigner Rachel Shenton. This book contains tips on signing and a list of the benefits of signing with babies. A great gift for any new parent.Read more

In early childhood education it has been demonstrated that a correlation exists between the level of a child’s mathematical ability and their future academic success. The reverse of this relationship has also been observed, where children who are behind the mathematical skills of their peers, continue to fall behind in future studies (Pelkowski, et al. 2019).Furthermore, it is well established in literature that the more maths learning opportunities a child is exposed to, the more growth they will experience in math knowledge (Piasta, et al. 2015).
???? Logic
- 20 x Pattern Recognition Problems
- 30 x Sudoku Puzzles
- 30 x 2D Mazes
- 30 x 3D Mazes
In today’s ‘Age of Information’, it is of great importance to equip students with critical thinking, and logical reasoning skills to effectively decipher and make meaning from large amounts of information (Fitzgerald, 2005). Logical reasoning assists in construction of concepts and knowledge in the learning process (Ongcoy, 2016). This book includes logic puzzles to promote the cognitive development and logical reasoning to improve their academic performance in high school, and beyond (Bouhnik, Giat, 2009)! Shayer and Adey (1993) found that at the completion of a 2-year science program designed to promote formal operational thinking, improvements were seen in maths, english and science results in the British National Examinations.
This book is designed to provide a learning opportunity to foster the curiosity and confidence of children aged 9 – 14 and set them well on the path to academic success. ???? ????
