Butterfly Lullaby FAMILY Christmas Dec 2017

How was your Christmas? This year I have been totally spoilt by my adorable daughter, Melody! She has handmade me three very special FAMILY drawings.

 For me as a MUM, there is nothing as special as a handmade gift by your child. Because it shows just how much they love and appreciate you!

 The first drawing is of us as a family standing around the Christmas Tree. MY LOVELY FAMILY ...


The second drawing is of me, the way she prefers to see me. At home when I sit and watch TV with her, I have my comfy PJ's on and crooked glasses. My partner sat on my glasses a few years ago, LOL! And my hair is usually up in a bun. Melody said, "She likes this version of me, because I look MUMSEY!" I have had the same glasses for over 18 years. Yes, I am a low maintenance MUM! If you see me out and about, and I wave at you without my glasses on, I am just being polite because I can't see a damn thing, te he!


I absolutely adore this family portrait of the three of us drawn by Melody, our wonderful and creative daughter. People complain about Home Education, but Home is where the HEART is! And believe it or not, children enjoy spending more time with their family. Home Education promotes children first, and family values. What is there not to like? The USA promotes family, it is about time the UK did the same. 

If you love family and good old fashioned values as much as myself, perhaps you will read my Blog about the New Home Education Bill, and ask Nadia Sawalha (Loose Women TV) to speak out about it:

http://butterflylullaby.blogspot.co.uk/2017/12/nadia-sawalha-home-education-bill-loose.html



Christmas Day I sent off my Submission to the Publisher with regards to my manuscript on helping Dyslexic Children to read, and build confidence the Butterfly Lullaby WAY! Watch this space, and remember, I am a WARRIOR, and never give up! So even if this Publisher says, "NO." I will keep going until I get a YES! America is calling me! And I know America is going to love me, as much as I love them!



I am a big fan of Google, and Dr. Michael Greger! They are my all time American HEROES!


Google care about their staff, and us! That is why they invited Dr. Michael Greger to their offices to speak about Nutrition. And just how bad our Western Diet really is! Note. Dr. Greger does not advertise on his You Tube Channel; therefore, Google get no money from his work. This shows how much they care!




As a mum, it is my job to keep my family healthy. This is why I have ordered this book as my Christmas gift for them to have a healthier life.




Doctors Know Less than They Think About Nutrition





Dr. Greger is our Nicholas Culpeper!



Happy Christmas Dr. Greger and GOOGLE! And not forgetting my wonderful Blog Supporters/Friends!
May 2018 be a great year for everyone!

Punctuation with Mr Skype excellent teacher review by Sharon J. Bainbridge


Education is all around us. Not just in the class room. I have learnt so much thanks to GOOGLE, and You Tube. Having been taught ITA English in school, I left Secondary School with not one qualification. Yet, I am self made like Richard Branson. Of course I am not rich like him; however, I am very proud of what I have achieved. Especially, as I am also a proud Dyslexic. (Check out Richard Branson's Dyslexia videos on You Tube)!

There are some great teachers in school, and some not so much. The teachers that actually like children, and want to help them succeed without bullying ... are the teachers I respect the most!

I believe Mr Skype is an EXCELLENT teacher. What do you think? He explains the uses of the Semicolon so well. I am so proud that my daughter, Melody, knows how to use a Semicolon. Because when I left school I knew nothing about punctuation, let alone how to spell correctly because of the ITA English I was taught in Primary School.



I created the below Semicolon sheet based on MR SKYPE'S above video tuition. What would be very cool, is if people sent in ideas for a Harry Potter Semicolon sheet. For example, changing the clauses to something like this:

I waved my magic wand; she did not!

Hopefully, next year, we will be paying for some private lessons from Mr. Skype. It would be really handy to have a hands on English Teacher for Melody. 



I downloaded Mr. Skype's, "Harry Potter English," but sadly my daughter does not want to do it. Why? Because she loves the Harry Potter films, and feels it will wreck the magic by making it into a worksheet. Damn, I thought I was being so clever. Luckily, not all children think the same. And I am sure there are some kids that would love it. 

https://www.skype-lessons.com/learn-english/

Mr Bruff who teaches GCSE ENGLISH, tells us how we are not educated in state school about Semicolons, and that using one means you have been to College. How very odd! Surely, children these days are taught PUNCTUATION in school? Please do contact me, and let me know. Thanks!


I would have liked to have made a video about this discussion, but the damn camcorder has broken. Never mind! I will have to compromise.

PEOPLE MOAN ABOUT HOME EDUCATION, WHEN THEY KNOW NOTHING ABOUT IT!
HOME IS WHERE THE HEART IS! IT PROMOTES FAMILY LIFE AND PUTS CHILDREN FIRST!

It really bugs me when people moan and complain about Home Education. But I am not allowed to even have a debate about ITA English, which destroyed my EDUCATION and others!  The BBC seem to have ignored my comment about ITA English, which I emailed them. And I can't leave a comment on their website.

I would like you to imagine being a child and forced to learn this awful ALIEN language, they call ITA English. Then later on in school, having to learn real English! Seriously, surely this deserves a debate. Personally, I would like an apology from the EDUCATION SYSTEM.


Introduction to i.t.a.



Please tell me, who's teaching method is better. The above ITA English, or mine? Nobody has the right to complain about my methods of teaching, because my daughter could not read when she was school, let alone spell or write correctly. She too is Dyslexic. Now she has a room full of books. 

 Lets ponder on the way children are taught to read in school. Even if the child struggles in school, they are still forced to read out in class. This is wrong! And knocks their confidence. Why don't teachers/teachers assistants write down the words children struggle with, or get them to write the word down three times. Then get them to have a go at spelling the words? This makes no sense to me; however, they are short staffed. This is why Home Education works. Some children need one to one support without the pressure, or bullying. When Melody was in school she was left to read alone. Maybe, once a week she would read with a teacher. And sadly she was forced to read out loud in the class, and bullied by the TA for not being able to keep up. Sorry, but I simply do not agree with this line of teaching. 


Dyslexic Children need one to one help, it is as simple as that!


Do you think Lord Solely will reply to my email with regards to the positives of Home Educating?



State Education taught me that the Western Diet was good for us. Thanks to Home Education, Google and Dr. Michael Greger, I now know the truth!


Google care about their staff, and us! That is why they invited Dr. Michael Greger to their offices to speak about Nutrition. And just how bad our Western Diet really is! Note. Dr. Greger does not advertise on his You Tube Channel; therefore, Google get no money from his work. This shows how much they care!



As a mum, it is my job to keep my family healthy. This is why I have ordered this book as my Christmas gift for them to have a healthier life.

Please tell me why the comments section is banned on the Loose Women You Tube Channel? Are we not allowed to debate Home Education?



Thankfully, this Home Ed mum uploaded a version of the Loose Women Home Education Debate. She gives a great speech on TV about how successful Home Education has been for her family.

Aldi bee friendly no GMO great prices Sharon J. Bainbridge review

















I stopped using pesticides in our garden over 10 years ago! And have saved three drowning bees!



I started shopping at Aldi,, just over a year now. They are my favourite food shop, why?
  1. Aldi care about nature, bees and us. That is why they have banned bee harming pesticides.
  2. GMO is banned in all Aldi Products.
  3. You save so much money by shopping with Aldi, which you can spend on getting your family healthy by buying more fruit and veg.
  4. Organic bananas, potatoes, carrots and much more!

Aldi, like me, love nature, our planet and people. That is why Friends of the Earth support them

 QUOTE: The move by Aldi UK follows campaigning by Friends of the Earth for the supermarket to set out its position after its German parent company, Aldi Sud, banned suppliers from using eight pesticides (including three bee-harming neonicotinoids) from fruits and vegetables produced for its German market earlier this year. Aldi UK is operationally independent from Aldi Sud. 
    https://friendsoftheearth.uk/resource/press_releases/aldi-uk-pesticide-review-protect-pollinators-welcomed_24032016

Here we talk about how we love our lovely bees. Melody, our talented daughter drew a beautiful bee on her wellington boot. She used to be scared of bees, now she loves them!


               NO GMO WITH ALDI PRODUCTS!

Does GMO = BAD? - 8:42 (The pesticide content of GMO is bad for us, and nature)!



I lost two and a half stone in approximately five months, by accident, in the aim to cure Asthma. Thanks to Home Education, Google and Dr. Michael Greger I am now fit and healthy.



ALDI FOOD SHOP, MORE FOR YOUR MONEY, WHICH MEANS YOU BUY MORE FRUIT AND VEG!


Our food bills used to be so expensive, and we got hardly any healthy food for the money. Now I can buy loads of fruit and veg and get value for money. Love you ALDI!


Here is my own recipe for a Kale and Blueberry Smoothie, using Aldi fruit and veg. I make this drink for our daughter every single morning! This is one way to get greens into your kids, LOL! Yes, I buy 12 bags of oranges every week. And hope to buy more once I start earning.


Google care about their staff and us. That is why they invited Dr. Michael Greger to their office to speak about Nutrition. Google rocks!


I am waiting for my How not to die cook book to arrive, then I can help my family and friends get healthy too! They are fussy eaters.


Welcome to our pesticide free Butterfly Lullaby garden. Love, love nature and people!



Sadly, my camcorder has broken. So I was not able to do this video justice.
Never mind, I will have to wait for the boat to come in ... so I can get a new camcorder.

DYSLEXIC PEN rub out no smudge gel pen


I cannot promote this Frixion Pen enough! Finding a good pen that does not smudge, and actually rubs out is total heaven for someone like me. Especially, as I am left handed and Dyslexic. This pen writes so smoothly. Nice, comfortable grip. The perfect gel pen, without the mess! Funny thing, I actually purchased these pens for my daughter. 

Our Home Ed friends recommended the pens to us. Their son also has Dyslexia. A lot of creative people are Dyslexic. It most certainly is a GIFT!




If you enjoy my Blogs, please support Home Educated children by contacting Nadia Sawalha from Loose Women. And ask her to speak out about the new Home Education Bill! See link below:


http://butterflylullaby.blogspot.co.uk/2017/12/nadia-sawalha-home-education-bill-loose.html



Amazing Home Ed Mum speaks up for Home Educating Families, and promotes it ...
ON LOOSE WOMEN TV SHOW!



Nadia and her husband Mark speak about the history of State Schooling, very interesting!



Nadia on Loose Women talking about why she Home Educated her children. 
She is obviously a very caring and loving MUM!



MY EMAIL TO PILOT PENS (FRICTION PENS)
9 December, 2017

Your Frixion Pens are perfect for Dyslexic people like me, my daughter and other children and adults. (Richard Branson is a proud Dyslexic. Even Churchill had Dyslexia. We are problem solvers)!

Please see my You Tube review on your pen:

DYSLEXIA PEN rubs out, no smudge; left hand Dyslexic Pen   



I am currently liaising with a PUBLISHER, with regards to helping Dyslexic children to read.
Being Dyslexic myself, I have come up with a technique that works. I know it works because my 
daughter begged me to take her out of school. State Schools do not cater for Dyslexic children.
Dork Diaries author Rachel Renee Russell supports my daughter Melody, and Home Education.




Prince William praised my daughters singing stories. 


I hope we can work together to help children, and adults with Dyslexia.

It is time to market your pen differently. 

Look forward to hearing from you.

Best wishes, 
Sharon J. Bainbridge 

P.S. America loves me. My Butterfly Lullaby books are advertised for over $50.

Free READING help for Dyslexic Children

DYSLEXIA - I WOULD LIKE TO HELP PARENTS TO MAKE READING FUN WITH THEIR CHILDREN!

If your child loves school. Then I am happy for them. But if they are struggling. Please help them by making reading fun! 



DYSLEXIA, DON'T GET RIPPED OFF!

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-2595648/Yes-dyslexia-wrecks-lives-But-experts-say-money-spinner-quack-therapists-schools-parents-children-falling-prey-dyslexia-deception.html


Here is my video on how to help children, with Dyslexia, to read:




HOME IS WHERE THE HEART IS - PROMOTING FAMILY VALUES!

The research is clear: Children raised in homes that promote family literacy grow up to be better readers and do better in school than children raised in homes where literacy is not promoted. 

 http://www.getreadytoread.org/early-learning-childhood-basics/early-literacy/promoting-family-literacy-raising-ready-readers

I would like to offer parents free help to encourage their children to read. How can I help? My daughter, Melody, has Dyslexia, and struggled in school. As did I, my partner (and many famous people like Richard Branson etc.) But, I like to turn every negative into a POWERFUL POSITIVE! I did not let Dyslexia hold me back in life. In the late 80's I taught myself to type. And eventually made it to Managing Director's Secretary. I've had my Butterfly Lullaby Book Launch at the Dylan Thomas Centre. As well as proudly getting the opportunity to work with a famous man from children's TV on personalised children's stories. And much, much more!

I received the BEST Mum award from Dork Diaries author, Rachel Renee Russell, for my creative ideas in helping Melody with her grammar. 



THIS IS WHAT YOU NEED TO DO IF YOUR CHILD STRUGGLES 
TO READ ...

  1. Take your child to the Library, and let them pick any book. 
  2. Read with your child.
  3. Your child cannot learn, if they are being bullied, or made to feel stupid. (Think about Home Education! Sadly, some teachers make children read aloud in class; however, knowing full well that child struggles, and will be made fun of).
  4. Show your child some fun singing stories.
  5. Get your child to have a go at reading their favourite book, while you listen.
  6. Write down every word your child cannot read. Then get them to write the word out three times. And have a go at spelling the word. (Example here in my below video):

EXAMPLE OF FUN, SINGING STORIES:

Dyslexia, gives Melody the gift to turn a book into a  wonderful, fun singing story.


Spooky Spooky Spooky book review



What's in the witch's kitchen - Nick Sherratt




Creepy Monsters Sleepy Monsters singing book review



Spookyrumpus singing book review



It is a real shame Prince William could not make it to Swansea, or Weymouth to hear Melody perform her singing stories. Especially, as Princess Diana also struggled in school; however, she made an amazing Queen of our HEARTS! The most loved monarch that ever lived.


THE PERFECT PEN FOR DYSLEXIC CHILDREN/ADULTS

My review on the Frixion pen:



FAMILY JOY SONG ORIGINAL BY MELODY


This was recorded quite a few years ago:



NEVER TOO OLD FOR LEGO RADIO JINGLE


Melody made up this, "Never too old for Lego JINGLE," a few years ago. AMAZING!
She used to create videos for her NEVER TOO OLD FOR LEGO You Tube Channel. I hope she gets back into creating small Lego films again one day: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCqKOQT3NTPn1qzj5Egsb-1w




Melody, our daughter, now has a small Library of books in her bedroom. Her ex teacher, before she was Home Educated, told her that she could not read the book she wanted to. Boy did Melody prove her wrong! Here you can see Melody open up a present from Rachel Renee Russell, the Dork Diaries Author:


RACHEL RENEE RUSSELL FAVOURITE AUTHOR DORK DIARIES MELODY 

(YEAR: 2015)




Melody's old teacher told me, "Sharon, it does not matter what Melody reads, as long as she is reading!" This wonderful teacher encouraged Melody to sing. Here she sings for the first time in school. Note. I had already got her moved class once, having to move her again ... I knew would not be possible. This is why I ended up Home Educating.



DORK DIARIES SUPPORTS HOMESCHOOL (YEAR: 2014)




COUNCILLOR KEVIN GRIFFITHS SUPPORTS OUR CHILDREN. HE PRINTS OFF MY DAUGHTERS DRAWINGS AND POSTS THEM THROUGH OUR DOOR!


My daughter is an outstanding up and coming artist. Children like her deserve promotion!
Here is some of her OLD ART:


Melody, my daughter, is also amazing at creative writing. She writes amazing Lyrics!
Not bad for a Dyslexic. But then look at John Lennon, he was Dyslexic!


Melody's song SORRY I DON'T LOVE YOU!


Melody's original song ... Crown


Melody's original song ...CONTROL



JOHN LENNON TOUR BUS

Supporting Dyslexic creative children!





MANY BRITISH PEOPLE QUESTION HOME EDUCATION, BUT HARDLY ANYONE QUESTIONS ITA ENGLISH, SOMETHING I WAS TAUGHT AS A CHILD. I AM SHOCKED THAT THEY ARE STILL TEACHING THIS BACKWARDS TEACHING!

Introduction to i.t.a.


When I complained about this video promoting ITA English on YOU TUBE. The video suddenly got taken down. This is a shame. As I would have liked people to see the damage it caused!





When, in 2001, the BBC asked for comments from people who had learned to read with I.T.A., many of the respondents felt that I.T.A. had hampered, rather than helped, their reading and spelling ability.

Do you have memories of ITA? If so, tell us them using the form below, or by sending them by e-mail to: newsonline.features@bbc.co.uk

A LITTLE INFO ON THE ITA READING SCHEME 
In the mid-to-late 1960s Ladybird decided to print some of their previously published books using the Initial Teaching Alphabet. Some of the titles printed using ITA were The Fisherman (606b), The Zoo (563), The Farm (563), The Party (563), Jesus the Helper (606a), as well as many more.

In the early 1970s Ladybird dropped the scheme as it proved to be unpopular within the primary education system. There has even been suggestion that children taught using the ITA system have later been found to have learning difficulties.

 STRANGE HOW THEY HAVE DELETED THIS ITA WEBSITE INFORMATION! BIT LIKE THE WELSH NOT!!!

In this song, Melody thanks me for Home Educating her. She made the beautiful banner one mothers day. Home Education is all about FAMILY! And putting children first.


MOTHER SONG BY DAUGHTER







MELODY, LIKE MOST DYSLEXICS, IS VERY TALENTED AT WRITING, SINGING AND DRAWING!
The beauty of Dyslexia is that Melody created this comic without having to plan it out. It came straight from her imagination.

I got to work with a famous man on children's TV. We were going to create personalised children's stories. (Bad people destroyed my business, but I never, ever give up)!



I am looking forward to making lots of wonderful singing stories with Melody.
She is a true TALENT!
