Monkey-B loves learning about animals, and recently she has become nothing short of a walking encyclopedia of animal factoids.
I can only take full credit for Monkey-B's ever-increasing animal knowledge, because her Khan Academy Kids iOS homeschooling app has taught her things I would've never imagined. She recently began talking about herbivores, carnivores, and omnivores, so I assume a recent lesson taught her these vocabulary words. Her English has improved so much over the last year, and now a whole new world is opening up to this Cambodian near-native English speaker.
She recently told me she wants to learn how to play the piano, so I immediately rode my bicycle to the nearest music store and purchased a full-size grand piano. Okay, well that was a fun little lie, but actually I made a deal with that in exchange for making a video with me, I'd download her a piano app for her iPad.
A little humor is always needed, so when it comes to bears, I always make sure the most important fact she knows is that "Bears are Godless killing machines." I think too much teddy bear culture has caused our youths to forget these things are truly dangerous, so just listen to Stephen Colbert...
🙏 GIVE THANKS 🙏 |
