Reading is most important in life
Reading, encyclopedic knowledge, and mathematics is a three major areas of intellectual growth and development. The first area is reading and of the three it is by far the most important. Reading is one of the highest functions of the human brain – of all creatures on earth, only humans can read.

All human intelligence is based upon facts which constitute human knowledge. Without facts there can be no intelligence.
You should begin your encyclopedic knowledge program by evolution using several categories of Bit of Intelligence cards. (or Glenn Doman method – Doman e-flash cards ) When this is going well and you are feeling restless to begin a new area, then you begin your mathematics program.
As you will see, mathematics is really a natural subdivision of any good comprehensive program since you begin with mathematical Bit of Intelligence cards – the dot cards.
The purpose of this article is outline the basic principles of good teaching. These principles apply to reading, encyclopedic, and mathematics, as well as to anything else you may wish to teach your child.
