Homeschool Lesson Plans Made Easy: The Secrets...
Students often struggle in class because the teacher teaches to only part of the class, often the average students. This means that the higher ability students never get challenged and the lower ability students get lost. The lesson is given to those right in the middle and is often designed to be general enough that everyone can understand. In some cases, an experienced or skilled teacher will teach to the upper end kids. In either case, only one third of the class is challenged while the other two thirds are bored or lost. Imagine going to a restaurant that only serves one dish, lets' say a pasta meal. Those who wanted a light salad or a meaty steak are out of luck, even though they might eat...
Homeschool Subjects - What is Taught and What...
Many people wonder what homeschoolers do all day. Do they get enough subjects in or do they just sit around and watch TV? It is said that public school children actually get 1 hour and 34 minutes of instruction time in a day. The rest of the time is spent on administrative tasks like switching classes, handing out papers, dealing with discipline issues, giving instructions, etc. I believe that homeschool students learn more subjects and have more productive learning time for these reasons: 1. Parents have a vested interest in seeing their child learn and succeed. If the student doesn't succeed or learn enough, usually the parent is to blame. Granted, there are homeschool parents that do no take this...
The beauty of homeschool classroom setup is that it combines all elements which include indoor, outdoor, garden, lab, etc. It should be designed in such a way that it is attractive enough to welcome a friendly learning environment and promoted fun times to learn and think. Here are some tips on how to design a home classroom. Don't worry if you can't afford a specific room. You can utilize free space between your living room and kitchen to get started. After you have a room or a dedicated space for your children, what you need to make it a classroom are: A bookshelf or cupboard Make sure it is low enough and safe enough so that the kids can get books by themselves and put it back by themselves. It...
One of the things that discourages parents from homeschooling is the fear that they are not really qualified to educate their own children. Perhaps they didn't do well in school themselves, or they don't have a post-secondary education. Or, maybe they don't think they have the patience to teach their child. The truth is, though, most parents are fully qualified to teach their own children. By the time your child reaches school age, you have probably been your child's primary teacher for 5 or 6 years. And just look at everything your child has learned! In most cases, you will have taught your child to understand language and to communicate using words. If that's not enough for you, remember that you...
At the end of the day home education is about family relationships. Home school families are vocal about the benefits of educating at home and the strong relationships that homeschooling encourages between parents and children is right at the top of a long list. Picture dad, mom and the kids sitting around the backyard fire pit roasting hotdogs in the evening. A cooking fire reflecting dancing flames and shadows in the falling darkness warms not only the food but hearts as well. This is the type of closeness most homeschooling families enjoy as they work through the rigors of scheduling, daily classroom assignments and other issues inherent in the homeschool lifestyle. Children learn best in...
Home School Tips, Part IV - How to Set Behavior...
Giggling, tickling, whispering, and chatting--these behaviors are fine at home. But, when your kids are in school, then these behaviors are inappropriate. Because school occurs in the home, clarifying expectations without seeming contradictory can be difficult. How can you communicate rules in a way that is clear to your student? As the fourth article in our series, this piece suggests ways of communicating expectations about behavior. In this article, you will find strategies to help you deal with discipline and classroom management in your home school. SEPARATE. Make a clear distinction between class time and home time. Use a chime or other sound to signal the start of school. Use a timer to make...
How to Enjoy 2nd Grade Science
Remember back when you were in school. Did your science teacher just stand there and present you with a bunch of facts and figures? Was looking at the pictures in the textbook the most fun you had in your science class? This is probably how your child is feeling right now about his or her 2nd grade science. It is not because they hate science in and of itself, but that he or she has not be introduced to it in a way that sparks the imagination. Make Science Come Alive: Although you will want to use your textbook to understand the basic material you will want to cover, make science multi-dimensional by always having a fun activity to go along with each lesson. Science experiments are by far the best...
More Ideas to Motivate Reluctant Writers
In my previous article on motivating a student who dislikes writing, I talked about my experiences with my son and how we overcame his dislike of writing through his interest in writing product and book reviews at and dreaming up writing ideas that combined his love of drawing and sketching with writing assignments. Some other ideas we have used which were also fun and effective (the teacher learns what's effective after the fact, but fun was always the essential element in the beginning) included the following: In teaching basic writing, once the idea of parts of speech were taught and understood, we found two highly effective and enjoyable methods of mastering the knowledge of nouns, verbs...
Think You Want to Home School? Five Reasons Why...
My family has just started our sixth year of home schooling. When we hear how other families prepare for the first day of traditional school, we're reminded that we have made the right decision for us. My children never worry about whether their teacher will like them or not, what the other kids will be wearing, or who their friends will be this year. Home schooling can be a wonderful experience, if it's the right choice for you, and if you are prepared for it. However, I've met a lot of parents who start out thinking home schooling will be great, but are pulling their hair out and ready to quit before the first year is over. Here are five questions to ask yourself, before you make the decision to...
Shichida believes the right brain and the left brain are interconnected. By flashing cards, you will have to show pictures and say the words at the same time. Thus you connect the right and left brain. The right brain processed images and pictures. The left brain processed languages and sound. Flashing cards strengthen these two processing. So your child's left brain is also activated and he is able to learn words. Words will come out naturally. To flash cards the Shichida way, flash at least 1 second per card. Try to gradually flash the cards faster each time you practice with your child. Flash as many cards as possible (at least 2 to 3 times a day). Start with 100 cards on the 1st month and then...
Teaching Guided Reading is One Method of...
Usually teaching guided reading is a kindergarten activity as the children are in small groups. Before the children start reading you explain the new words and the meaning of the story. Alternatively the children read the story first then you give them a chance to ask questions. This way you get an understanding of how much the children understand. If you are using the Montessori approach to learning reading, first you would make up the words in sandpaper letters. The children would trace the new words in the sandpaper letters while saying the new word. This way they already know the words before they start reading the story. I let the children read at their own pace then when they are all finished...
The Home School - Project-Led Learning
Forcing a junior high child to sit chained to a desk eight hours a day, doing inane and pointless busy work, dribbling stuff they don't care about onto a piece of paper, is, in my mind, child abuse. What a 12-year-old child wants to do, with all of his or her heart, is to explore the world in which they live. A child wants to make things, to work with his hands, to experience things. A child wants to fix a car, build a go-cart, cut mommy's hair, make a dress, build a dog house, grow some funny looking gourds, plant some flowers, ride a horse, spend a day deep-sea fishing, work a sail-boat, build a canoe, go fishing with Grandpa, show a steer at the fair. In today's ridiculous mentality, a boy...
Education From the Early Church Fathers
During the first centuries, all education related to the interests of the church. The monasteries were the sole centers of learning until the crusades brought new life to education. Schools and universities were then established. Eventually the Teutonic peoples (Germans, Anglo-Saxons, Scandinavians) began to play a bigger part in education. The Catechumen schools for adults--and later for children--first taught people about their new faith; they later added reading and writing. Previous to this, instruction was given by tutors or parents in homes, or in pagan schools. Reading, writing, Scripture and Psalms were taught first at Odessa's Christian Common School at the close of the second century...
Piano Lessons for Homeschool Families
Piano lessons provide a great advantage for children schooled at home. Because parents are in charge of their children's schedule and curriculum, homeschool students can set their own pace and spend more time on music than in the public or private schools. In the public schools young children go to music class about once a week. Not nearly enough time to develop their musical talent, and rarely are they able to learn an instrument such as the piano. This is unfortunate because of the educational benefits of piano lessons for elementary school age children. Home school parents, however, can provide all the benefits of piano for their children right in their own home. And there is no reason not to...
Some Parents Actually Think That Teaching...
Teaching reading takes time not rocket science, and the more time you put in the faster your kids will learn. Really there is no fast, easy way to teach reading but you don't need to be a rocket scientist to teach your kids to read. I suppose some teachers and schools would say that teaching reading is rocket science. But that would be to keep your children in the mainstream school system, especially if you are thinking of homeschooling. If you take the phonics approach to teaching reading you might think phonics are rocket science but after you look into phonics you find out how easy they are. I prefer the Montessori approach to teaching phonics because she uses sandpaper letters. Now sandpaper...
What Kind of Tools Do You Need to Homeschool?
Just as a carpenter needs tools to do his job, a mom needs tools to be able to homeschool her children. The tools don't have to be fancy, but they do need to be functional. Not every carpenter prefers the same tools. Some couldn't live without a certain tool where another carpenter never uses that tool to get the job done. Depending on your personality and your child's, you will choose different tools than another mom might choose. That's the beauty of homeschooling. Here are a few tools that I have used in various forms. 1. Books - You can use historical fiction to teach history or use chapter books to encourage your child to develop their reading fluency. Another kind of book you could use would...
Is Homeschool PE Important?
My homeschooled son went out for a "Roomies" activity at college. I'm not completely sure, but I think a boys dorm room and a girls dorm room go out together for an organized activity. Alex group went ice skating, out to "bubble tea" (think college-age version of Starbuck's) and then (as a group) to the park to look at the city lights. Let me just say, first of all, that my son is having a TON of fun at college! What a total blast! Can I have some good, clean fun too? But we were discussing ice skating, and he said it was really fun! It reminded me of my first week of homeschooling. The boys were in 3rd and 5th grade when we started our journey. Our first week of school (third day of...
Recognizing Passive-Aggressive Behavior in Our...
Ask any homeschooling mom what frustrates her most and she will mention the kids taking forever to finish their work, not doing their work or complaining about their work. There seems to be a theme here. If I burned 100 calories every time I heard such a complaint, I would be conducting weight-loss seminars. Suffering Alone Most moms silently suffer, reluctant to acknowledge defeat, until they meet with their facilitator. Facilitators talk to many moms; thus, they are exposed to the bigger picture, but individual homeschoolers struggle alone, not realizing that this problem is typical. We dare not ignore it, however, because typical or not, it's annoying! Much more than annoying, it leads to panic...
Christian Home Schooling
There are many different reasons you could choose to home school your children. Some choose it because of lifestyle. Others because of medical problems. Christian home schooling presents yet another option. Christian home schooling has increased in popularity, because this gives parents a way to monitor what their children are learning and to instill Christian values in them. Are you a Christian and wondering if home schooling is right for you? Well consider this. If being in a world where displaying your religious preference in public schools is becoming less tolerated is something that bothers you, Christian home schooling is a good alternative. It presents an opportunity for you to incorporate...
Home Schooling Advantages and Disadvantages
There are numerous advantages to home schooling your children. The convenience factor is great. There can never be complications getting to school, missing the bus, being off for snow days that you would have to make up later or having to walk in the rain. You don't have to buy the often unappetizing school lunch, or get up early to make a lunch to bring with you. You don't have to worry about what to wear or try to outdo other students with fashion statements if your a girl. And you don't have to worry about getting into fights, that often "just happen" with adolescent boys. And neither one would have to worry about taking showers in the presence of others after Gym Class. Of course those are...
Learning to write well always begins with action verbs. I start my students out with a series of exercises in which they must write a short sequence of story using only single action verbs. Most children use unending linking verbs - "he was walking," instead of "he walked." This is the difference between "telling" and "showing." To be a good writer, my daughter must train herself to write with strong and interesting action verbs. She will begin her short story project with a list of action verbs printed off the Internet. She will obtain a copy of Katherine Langreish's Troll Fell, open it anywhere, and start copying word for word. I will have her spend some time doing this, circling the action verbs...
Do You Know What Qualities Your Tutor Agency is...
The decision to employ a full-time live-in tutor can have a monumental impact on family life. Perhaps the tutor is being hired to help remedy academic problems, or maintain a consistent education for your child when your family travels extensively. Perhaps conventional schooling has failed your child and the time has come to step away from the traditional school system. Having a reputable tutor agency find and screen candidates is essential. Not only because of the background and reference checks, but also because they know the qualities to look for in the best full-time tutors, and how to ensure a candidate genuinely has those qualities. As parents, awareness of some of the core abilities and...
For those of us who have a personal experience with home schooling it has proved to be the best choice of education we could have made. The pros far outweigh the cons. In today's world where personal transportation and the internet are pretty much available to everyone, outside stimulation is readily available. Lets take a look at some of these facts. 1. The advantages of home schooling: There can be no greater advantage of HS than the family bonds that are built and strengthened. Just think of the sibling and parental bonding that can be built in an atmosphere of constructive education. The flexible curriculum is another positive. For instance the education experience can be made to fit the...
When starting to homeschool your children, creating a homeschool schedule that works for your family can be difficult. Wondering how to get everything done - schooling, housework, outside responsibilities, can seem overwhelming, especially for new homeschoolers. Creating a homeschool schedule for your family is very important. It will help you stay on task, remind you what to do and help your family achieve their educational objectives. It is important to consider your family dynamics when creating your family's schedule. You must be realistic in your expectations - everything can not be done in one day. An effective homeschool schedule will: 1. Guide you in accomplishing your daily goals. The best...
Home School - How Can I Fit More Hours in My Day?
Life is hectic, and running a household full of kids can be a real challenge. Add the responsibilities of educating your children at home and you might feel overwhelmed. To some extent, homeschoolers will ALWAYS feel like there aren't enough hours in the day! It's part of parenting, and even more a part of homeschooling. There are some things that can help. I read the book "Managers of Their Homes" and it really helped me. It is a book about scheduling your homeschool, so that you do the most important things FIRST. Determine what your priorities are, and then start with priority #1. The less important things may need to be less frequent. A schedule will sometimes tell you what is going wrong...
How to Handle Criticism of Home Schooling
I went to the home school store yesterday to purchase some curriculum for our new school year. In our city, that's one of the best places to meet and socialize with other home schooling families. We're starting our sixth year of home schooling, so not much fazes me anymore, but one mother there was just starting her second year, and her children were still quite young. She was frustrated because for her, another year of home schooling meant another year of friends and family criticizing her choice to educate her children at home. She was the only person in her group of friends who home schooled, and her family wasn't supportive either. She felt very alone, but the truth is, almost every family who...
Challenges and Advantages of Elearning Courses
When was the last time you attended a face-to-face training workshop? One wherein your co-participants, as well as your training facilitator, had to travel from far and wide so you can sit and learn together. If your organization's training and development program is highly evolved, involving elearning courses, then that last time was probably a long time ago. Though conventional or face-to-face training still remain relevant to any organization, elearning has become an integral part of training and development for many organizations. Elearning, at its most basic definition, is computer-based learning. It's learning using instructional materials through the internet or a CD Rom. It could be just...
If you are trying to decide on whether a career as an instructional designer is for you, there are a few things to consider. First, remember that you have many options for schools that offer instructional design and instructional technology but you must choose the right one for you depending on what you want to do when you graduate. In most universities, the degree is available only at the graduate level, and programs offered may include M.Ed, M.S., A.M., Ed.D., Ph.D, and Ed.D.

Taking College Courses Online - The Advantages...
In the modern age of technology, almost everything is available online. Gone are the days of reading and consulting bulky books and encyclopedias for researching. These days, the internet can answer almost all, if not all of our research needs. Online courses or "distance learning" has been taking the internet and campuses by storm in the past few years. College students now have a choice between the traditional mode of learning and learning within the comforts of their own homes. Like many things in life, taking college courses online can have both advantages and disadvantages. Taking college courses online or sometimes dubbed as "e-learning" is beneficial because students do not have to make a...
Want to support and motivate students in your LMS online course? Create a system of rewards and incentives. Even though the process itself usually turns out to be the best reward, we humans still require a carrot to put forth effort. Intentional learning--or simply learning for the sake of learning--isn't a common occurrence. It does happen, but it is not the norm. Remember: learning is basically about wanting something. In a school classroom setting, that something may be high marks or peer and/or teacher approval. In an LMS online training program, the desired something may include monetary rewards for good performance, or verbal encouragement and praise for a job well done. Simple words of...
As majority of us know that there is various kinds of online free typing games available on the internet. There are also some websites which requires a license fee from the users but it is normally very minimal for using the software. It is one of the best ways to assist the kids to get familiar with the keyboard at early stage of their life. The reason is understandable since most kids like online games. Typing games for kids are not only entertaining and fun game for the kids but it is also a very helpful learning tool. These kinds of games make the learning process very enjoyable for kids. But it is a fact that even today many parents are not aware of this type of educational games. Some parents...
Distance learning and adult education are certainly in the spotlight at the moment. As economic problems spur individuals to improve their CVs or consider a change in career, and universities begin to offer more and more distance and e-Learning courses, now seems the perfect time for adults to think about going back to school. But adult education is not only about teaching older learners new skills and subjects, it also has a wider social importance - and can achieve far more. In order to have this far reaching achievement, adult education must be taught and used with such prospects in mind. In his essay, The Liberating Role Of Education, Julius K. Nyerere argues that wanting to learn should not be...

In a period of financial difficulty, such as the one being experienced by the entire world right now, the key to survival of most companies is in seeking out solutions with the maximum of benefits with the least of loss from the company itself. This usually translates into sourcing out resources that is projected to yield the most in terms of results for the company, without the company having to shell out too much to acquire it or accrue a large expense in the production of the favorable results. For some companies, this would necessarily mean downsizing their existing workforce and retaining only those that are particularly indispensable, or those who are able to function in multiple capacities...

The Importance of Knowing Which Information is...
While the internet may provide most of the information used in both school and professional settings today, the validity and correctness of some of the information available online is, at best, questionable. The internet provides the ultimate in terms of convenience and interactivity, allowing virtually anyone with an internet connection to upload any form of information in virtually any form of media onto the internet and make it available for anyone to access. While a lot of the information available on the internet is quite reliable and is valid enough to be used for research purposes, in both academic and professional applications, there are some pieces of information which are largely based on...
Want to go back to school and earn your degree completely online to have a better life? The most common reason that anybody would not consider fulfilling their dream of getting a degree is that they don't have time and feel that they cannot afford it.

Distance learning psychology is a good option for many, who wish to do a major. Before joining the program, make sure that you have the strength to complete the course. Many of us mis-believe that doing distance learning is easy, compared to a regular course. In contradiction to that, in such a course you have to motivate yourself and, hence it is more difficult to get through the course. Dedication is the main thing that you need while doing a distance learning program. Your mentors in the program will surely help you to work hard and achieve the goal. However, they can do it by using emails only. Hence, the self-motivation and dedication are the factors that are more important than the inspiration...

Easier accessibility for a growing range of subjects, as well as recent government calls for a push in e-learning, highlight the fact that more and more students will be studying from home in the future and partaking in this more economical and ecological method of higher education. But does being away from the watchful eye of tutors and teachers mean that there is an increased risk of cheating among students? And what are the measures to stop it? In their article, Probing for Plagiarism in the Virtual Classroom, Lindsey Hamlin and William Ryan discuss the notion of plagiarism, passing off another persons work as one's own, in the...

Did you ever wonder what the easiest language to learn is? Maybe you are looking to learn another language and haven't decided on which one. You don't want to get bogged down in something too difficult and you'd like a (relatively) easy time of it. There are a lot of factors that make a language easy or hard to learn. The factor with the greatest impact is what your native language is - the language you grew up speaking. This will always effect how you learn languages. Other factors are - whether you have to learn a new alphabet or writing system, new grammar rules and strange new sounds to make. It's really a combination of the actual characteristics of the language you want to learn and your own...

I remember back in College I had a Korean classmate. He was a bit shy and his English is a bit awkward. His parents did not want him to finish his college in their country so they sent him here in the U.S. He had a hard time fitting in but he managed to blend in with the crowd eventually. He was really good at math which made him a bit popular; he gained a few friends because of his math skills. Moving to a new school can be stressful; you will always have the feeling that you are alienated. What if you are moving to a different classroom? What if you moved into a place where you can not personally interact with your classmates and professors? What if you will be studying not in the real world but...

The Significance of Elearning For Companies
In the past, Elearning has made a great contribution in the field of education. It started in the mid-1980s by a number of institutions in the United States. The pioneer institutions include Western Behavioral Sciences Institute, Connected Education, New York Institute of Technology and New Jersey Institute of Technology. In order to organize these elearning institutes, an organization called Independent Student Media was established. As of 2003, there were millions of students who enrolled in e-learning institutes. This number of students increases at a rate of 25% per year. Elearning students are mostly from Australia and New Zealand. But really, what is Elearning? Elearning is a term that is used...
