No more worrying about whether the exchange rate will worsen and cause the monthly fees to increase 3.

Before you start homeschooling - DO YOU KNOW YOUR CHILD'S LEARNING STYLE?!

By Angela Collins

Homeschooling and Different Learning Styles This is such an interesting topic and with homeschooling, we can help our children more effectively (and avoid unnecessary conflict) if we take into account our child's preferred learning style. You don't need to be an educational expert on different learning styles to be able to help your child...all it really takes is to be watchful and mindful of how your child reacts to general things and learning content. In fact, if you can remember how your child was when they were still very young, there would also be indications as to what they gravitate to naturally...long before having to learn to read and write.   In really simplistic terms, you can think of 3 categories of learning styles: a child who learns best by looking (visual); the child who learns best by hearing (auditory); and the child who learns best by doing (kinesthetic). For a general explanation, especially applicable for younger children, you can try the LEARNING STYLE QUI

HOMESCHOOLING FOR THE EARLY GRADES

By Angela Collins

Understanding the Foundation Phase Would you not agree with me that the pressure young children (and parents) are under in schools is at an all time high? A time when children should be out playing in the afternoons has now become a routine of extra lessons and copious amount of homework! Why?! If you have a young child, here's something to consider regarding the foundation phase of schooling (Grade R-3): So what are foundations? If you think about the building process: foundations are well mapped out, the ground tested to determine what building strategies/methods are required, deep trenches are dug out and then filled with strong concrete that will have to support the rest of the building. From the experts: “Building a good foundation requires a lot more than digging a hole and pouring some concrete into forms. It must be tailored to its site like a custom suit, taking into account soil conditions, water tables, even the quality of the backfill.” Extract from This Sold House by

UNIT STUDIES HOMESCHOOLING APPROACH

By Angela Collins
Image
 If you have a good think about life and everything around us, it will be quite evident that what we see and experience is not in isolation at all. We experience life with many influences that are constantly around us.  The idea of individual school subjects may be easier to manage in some schooling situations but it isn't really a true reflection of the "real world", where  everything is connected. It is this thought of connectivity that the homeschooling approach, UNIT STUDIES, fully embraces. When we present a learning experience to our children that is interest based, you've already bypassed many other obstacles that may otherwise be there to overcome e.g. irrelevance, lack of interest, too abstract, no evident practical application etc.  So how do you use UNIT STUDIES effectively? Firstly, one has to shake off conventional schooling ideas. Think one topic...with ENDLESS possibilities! In a unit study, a topic is explored which involves the various application of
