Hello Facebook world!
We have been absent from here but very busy in the centre!
Hope you've all been well.
I'll be posting term 4 information shortly!

It doesn't matter what homeschooling looks like. Does it?🤔

I'm pretty sure this is the best thing about homeschooling.

Good luck everyone with isolation schooling tomorrow!
Just remember, even if you are not learning a new language, taking a short course, teaching your child to cook, to clean, to paint, to read, to write, to sing, to dance...and all the other ridiculous things we're expected to do concurrently, you're still an AMAZING parent.

It may not look like it, but planning the whole term for a group of 4 kids takes about 6 hours.
It is for this reason that I will only be able to offer my services to half of the students in my centre.
For all those being forced to homeschool, my main advice would be to take things slowly and focus on the basics this term. Whilst kids can catch up, for some it's harder. Doing something is better than doing nothing.

Automaticity - is the ability to do things without occupying the mind with the low-level details required, allowing it to become an automatic response pattern or habit. It is usually the result of learning, repetition, and practice.
Automaticity is important in Literacy and Maths.
This is what it looks like. It needs to be a 3 second response to a question/word.
Not all things need to be automatic.

It's not all about homework (only 2 hours our of our day😉).

Our writing session this morning focussed on persuasive writing.
(The tissues on the side are indicative of a little meltdown...but we persevered).
We'll be looking JUST at persuasive writing daily for the next 2 weeks. This is so we can refine our skills.
The plan we worked from is featured below. Our aim was to work on structure and expansion of each paragraph.
Here are some topics to consider:
1. Should everyone learn how to cook?
2. What are the benefits of lock down?
3. Which sport is the best?
