why is too much VR and NVR not good
Posted: Thu Jan 19, 2012 5:46 pm
Hi All,
Sorry for the Newbie questions, I just wanted to gather you thoughts and feedback on some belief that 'too much' Verbal or/and Non-Verbal reasoning (practice) is not good for kids?
I need help on defining too much?
If too much VR/NVR is not good for the kids, why do publishers like Bond/letts have age related VR/NVR books starting at 6-7 years or 7-8 yrs etc?
Does teaching all the techniques and doing the practise papers constitute too much practice?
My DS is in year 4 (8.8 years old), he enjoys doing NVR, by his insistance, he has covered all the letts NVR books (Y3, Y4, Y5, Y6) (with good marks) without me teaching him the techniques. is this too much?
Is it safe to do the same with Bond Books?
Is it worth me going through a techniques book or will this confuse him?
Your feedback and comments will be highly appreciated
Thanks and Kind Regards
