For many families, homeschooling is the best educational choice that allows their children to grow and thrive where they wouldn’t have succeeded in public or private school. It requires some preparation and planning, but is something that anyone can do, regardless of your education. Of course, that assumes that we’ve got a choice in the matter. Whether you were planning on homeschooling your kids or not, thanks to the social distancing measures put in place to slow the spread of COVID-19, we’re all homeschooling our kids now.
Parents of public and private school kids have a bit of an advantage here, with school districts setting up distance learning tools to keep students connected with their teachers, but those parents are quickly learning that there’s more to education than just plopping them down in front of a computer and leaving them to their own devices. With that in mind, here are some tips from full-time homeschooling parents to help you make learning from home a fun experience instead of a stressful one.
