The self-paced option is designed to offer you and your child a flexible and convenient way to learn. By selecting this option, you will gain access to a series of pre-recorded instructional video lessons that are presented in an easy-to-view format. Your child can follow along with these lessons at their own pace and at a time that suits their schedule.
Unit 1 comprises 14 (1-hour) video lessons that are specifically designed to provide comprehensive instruction on the topic at hand. Each lesson comes with a corresponding workbook and all the necessary materials required to follow along. This means that your child can fully engage with the lesson material and deepen their understanding of the subject matter.
With the self-paced option, all 15 video lessons are released at once, which means that you and your child can begin learning immediately. As soon as you sign up for the course, you will have instant access to all the materials, allowing your child to start learning at their own pace and on their own schedule.
To ensure that every student has access to the necessary learning materials, each student is provided with a comprehensive Learning Kit. This kit is designed to contain all the essential tools and resources that your child will need during their learning journey. The Learning Kit includes teacher-created workbooks that are specifically tailored to the subject matter being taught. These workbooks provide a structured approach to learning and are designed to enhance your child's understanding of the subject.
In addition to the workbooks, the Learning Kit also includes other educational materials such as books, manipulatives, art supplies, and tools that will be used during each class. These resources are carefully selected to provide a well-rounded learning experience and to cater to the unique needs of each student. The manipulatives and tools help to enhance hands-on learning, while the art supplies provide an outlet for creativity and self-expression.
It's worth noting that while the Learning Kit contains most of the materials that your child will need, parents are responsible for providing basic school supplies such as pencils, crayons, scissors, and glue.
At the heart of my curriculum approach is a commitment to providing a well-rounded and engaging learning experience for every student. To achieve this, I use a variety of teaching strategies that are tailored to the needs and interests of each child.
My curriculum approach includes a mix of direct instruction, independent practice, instructional games, and real-world, hands-on activities. This multi-faceted approach is designed to promote active engagement and to support different learning styles. With children in mind, I also aim to provide ample opportunities for play and exploration, recognizing that this is an essential part of the learning process for young children.
In addition to these strategies, we also use several supplemental resources to enhance class and home instruction. These resources include IXL, RAZ-KIDS, and Scholastic, which are all carefully selected to support the curriculum and to provide students with additional opportunities for practice and reinforcement.
IXL is a comprehensive online learning platform that offers personalized instruction in math and language arts. RAZ-KIDS is an online reading program that provides interactive eBooks and assessments to support reading comprehension. Scholastic is a trusted provider of educational materials that offer engaging and informative content across a range of subject areas.
By utilizing these supplemental resources, I can offer a more comprehensive and varied learning experience that supports every child's academic growth and development.
As each child has unique learning needs and styles, the level of parental assistance required during class can vary. Parents should expect to be available to provide support if needed, but the degree of assistance required will depend on the individual child's capabilities and confidence.
It's important for parents to be present or nearby during the class to offer support or answer any questions that may arise. However, I aim to foster an environment of independence and self-reliance, and so, parents may not always need to be actively involved in every aspect of the class. Older siblings can also be great helpers, and I encourage them to participate and support their younger siblings' learning.
To further support parents, we have created a private Facebook group where parents can connect with one another and build relationships. This group provides a safe and supportive space for parents to share ideas, offer tips and advice, and build a community of like-minded individuals who are all invested in their children's education. This group can be an invaluable resource for parents who may be seeking support or guidance as they navigate the homeschooling journey.
Includes 14 video lessons (each video is approx 1 hour long), a learning kit with workbook & manipulatives needed, and student accounts for IXL, KidsA-Z, and Scholastic.
