Help me to do it my self with practical life (1)

Practical life kalau diartikan ke bahasa Indonesia artinya praktek kehidupan,saya sendiri baru tau  ada subject practical life setelah mengajar di sekolah yang berbasis Montessori karena jargon dari Montessori itu sendiri adalah Help me to do it my self,..sebelumnya anak2 saya bersekolah di sekolah islam terpadu disana diistilahkan ketrampilan hidup..sebenarnya apapun bahasa atau sebutannya baik di montessori school atau sekolah islam terpadu pada prakteknya sama saja yaitu kegiatan sehari hari yang selain mengembangkan kemandirian juga motorik kasar dan halus anak DAN tanpa sadar mungkin kita sudah mengajarkan itu pada anak-anak kita dirumah.
Nah untuk yang bahasa njelimetnya ini saya copas dari http://www.montessorimom.com/practical-life/
What is practical life? Basically, it is any physical activity that helps a child grow in motor skills, cognitive development, self confidence and development of his or her own personality, and most of all independence. Any controlled movement of hands, arms, legs, feet, eyes, etc. helps your child achieve independence and mastery of his or her environment. Sitting up, crawling, walking, grasping a toy are practical life skills for infants. Soon, your toddler is ready for new areas to conquer. Dressing, brushing his or her teeth, washing face and hands, eating properly, not slamming the door, manners, and so on are all practical life skills that prepare your child for life. Being able to take care of yourself gives not only self-confidence and freedom, but helps with ones concentration in the mastery of concrete learning that eventually leads to abstract learning, such as reading and math
Pada prakteknya practical life itu banyaaaakk sekali..practical life bisa dimulai dari balita dan dimulai dari hal yang mudah,.makan sendiri,..nah pengalaman saya mengajar playgroup 2-4th yg berbased Montessori ditingkat ini mereka diajarkan untuk pakai celemek sendiri,melepas kaus kaki &sepatu sendiri,meletakan sepatu diraknya sendiri,membawa barangnya(tas/tempat makan/minum) sendiri,cuci tangan sendiri,mengambil makan & makan sendiri,merapikan bekas makan,sikat gigi sendiri,membuka dan memakai baju sendiri –ketrampilan ini banyak subnya memasang kancing jepret,resleting,kancing kecil,baju bertali dll-mandi sendiri,naik tangga sendiri,menyapu dan mengepel,menguleni adonan dll..
Untuk yang tingkat TK lebih banyak lagi macamnya,menuang air dari satu wadah ke wadah lain,menyendok biji2an dari satu wadah ke wadah lain dengan teori dari biji2an di sebelah kiri disendokan ke wadah sebelah kanan,kenapa?karena melewati bodymidlines utk ketrampilan anak mengetahui arah kanan kiri dan juga koordinasi mata dan otaknya,membesihkan meja,membersihkan logam,mengayak,mencuci baju de el el
Untuk tingkat SD makin beragam ..nah saya copas dari situs yang sama  seperti di atas ini dia area practical life yang buannyaaak aje..jreng..jreng..cekidoott..
