Tippie
Die Tippie-reeks is gebore uit ’n ma en dogter se passie vir die onderwys. José Palmer en Reinette Lombard het gesamentlik 48 jaar onderwyservaring en weet hoe beter ’n kind se leesvaardigheid is, hoe makliker en doeltreffender is die leerproses. Met José se jeugdroom om boekies vir kinders te skryf en Reinette se behoefte aan leesboekies om in haar remediërende praktyk te gebruik, het Tippie die lig gesien en heel gou het ma en dogter besef kinders wat sukkel om te leer lees, leer vinniger en makliker saam met Tippie. Hulle kry sommer gou meer selfvertroue en hulle begrip verbeter boekie vir boekie sodat hulle sommer spoedig na die volgende leesvlak vorder.
Die ma-en-dogter-span wou ’n karakter hê met wie alle kinders kan identifiseer, ongeag ras, kultuur of taal. Zinelda McDonald Meiring het Tippie na aanleiding van die teks geskep en haar illustrasies dra ongelooflik baie by tot Tippie se sukses. Elke kind kan met Tippie identifiseer.

Kinders leer optimaal wanneer hulle in die taal waarin hulle praat, dink en bid, leer lees. Moedertaalonderrig is ongelooflik belangrik, veral in die grondslagfase, omdat dit kinders se hartstaal is en hulle daarmee kan identifiseer.
The Tippie series was born from a mother and daughter’s passion for education. José Palmer and Reinette Lombard have a combined 48 years of teaching experience and know that the better a child’s reading skills are, the easier and more efficient the learning process is. Tippie originated from José’s childhood dream of writing books for children and Reinette’s need for reading books to use in her remedial practice. Very soon, mother and daughter realised that Tippie helps children who struggle to learn to read to learn faster and easier. They quickly gain more confidence, and their understanding improves with every book they read. So, they quickly progress to the next reading level.
The mother-daughter team wanted a character that all children could identify with, regardless of race, culture or language. Zinelda McDonald Meiring created Tippie based on the text, and her illustrations contribute incredibly to Tippie’s success. Every child can identify with Tippie.

Children learn optimally when they learn to read in the language they speak, think and pray. Mother-tongue teaching is incredibly important, especially in the foundation phase, because it is the language of a child’s heart.
