Our tips on home schooling
Have a structured routine - Having a routine is important and can give you all structure especially during the early days. Ensure that you include refreshment breaks and something that includes being active.
Creating a timetable - Encourage your children to contribute to their timetable so they feel they have input and some control over what they will be learning. Ensure that there are elements of active time, creativity, literacy and numeracy.
Get creative - Allow the children to learn at their own pace but also in their own way where possible. You can set them mini projects where they can learn about something specific and present their findings to you in a fun and creative way.
Be involved - Take an interest in what your child is studying and be engaged in the topics they are learning. This can be very motivating for them.
Marking your child's work - Ask someone who isn't a family member look over your child's work as this can encourage your child to do their best work and help with their progress.
