Instructions of Dadi’s ABCmouse Guided Learning

I. Definition of ABCmouse Guided Learning

1.Method + Guide

ABCmouse guided learning is to guide children to learn independently by teaching them the normative learning method on the ABCmouse APP.

2.Companion + Motivation + Persistence

ABCmouse guided learning is away that teachers use ABCmouse APP to guide and motivate children to learn, so that they can learn from similar materials by analogy, so as to achieve independent learning, they can also use what they have learned to practice and communicate.

Therefore, ABCmouse guided learning is a new-era English learning model that teaches children to use the ABCmouse APP, through the teacher's guidance, provides an oral practice environment to help children acquire English.

II.ABCmosue guided learning method

● ABCmosue guided learning takes "teacher guides children to learn English with the ABCmouse APP" as its learning method.

● The ABCmouse guided learning method emphasizes the teacher's guidance, guiding children to learn English with the ABCmouse APP, rather than "leading them" which means the teacher teaches the content of each lesson. Guided learning and leading learning has essential difference between the two. Understanding the difference can help us understand guided learning method better. 

III.Principle of ABCmouse guided learning in group activity class

● ABCmosue's guided learning in group activities are mainly based on students' self-operation and presentation, supplemented by teachers' guidance and application and oral interaction instead of teachers' traditional leading learning.

● During the ABCmouse guided learning group activity, children become the leaders of learning by using the ABCmouse APP, and teachers act as guides and assistants, rather than traditional teachers. At the same time, teachers create a display platform for children through collective learning activities, invite children to fully display their independent learning achievements, encourage children keep continuous enthusiasm after going home for learning, and further improve children's independent learning ability.

IV.Cultivation Goals of ABCmouse Guided Learning

1. The training goal of ABCmouse guided learning is: children can communicate in American English for 1-5 minutes.

2."Free communication for 1-5 minutes" means that after students graduate from junior class, middle class and senior classes of Dadi, they can use English to communicate freely with teachers, other young students or foreign teachers in English for 1-5 minutes (the content of the communication is not limited).

3.In the group learning activities, teachers can implement this goal in three ways:

● Communication between teachers and students: Teachers carry out oral interaction between teachers and students based on the content of materials in ABCmouse APP.

● Student-to-student communicate: The teacher guides the students to carry out oral interaction among the students based on the material content in ABCmouse APP.

● Look at the picture and talk: the teacher guides the young students to look at the picture and express according to the material content in ABCmouse APP.
