The importance of Teachkidslanguages for the Four Strokes of Verhallen
According to Verhallen, a Dutch vocabulary expert about the Four Strokes, especially children in first grade learn many new words. Those words are easiest to understand when they connect with a context that children already know. An insufficient vocabulary can lead to poorer math skills and trouble remembering new words. The app Learn languages with Emma can help closing that vocabulary gap to help toddlers catch up. After all, the app teaches 500 from the BAK list. The app as support for the "four-strokes" of Verhallen:
- Stroke 1. Roughing
- Stroke 2. Semantize
- Stroke 3. Consolidate
- Stroke 4. Check
The app automatically checks the answers of the toddlers and gives positive feedback on what they already know. The given feedback is in their native language. Polish children who learn Dutch see the feedback in Polish, which makes it easy for their parents to understand as well.
