Be around, but let them do it:
Be around, but let them do it:
With our school moving to online learning, as a supervising adult you will be more a facilitator rather than a replacement teacher. Our school will provide learning materials for your child to work through.
Therefore if your child is finding a particular task difficult, be available to make suggestions and answer questions, but try to let them do things themselves as much as possible.
If you don’t know the answer, work with your child to discover a solution. Let your child, where possible, self regulate–that is to take control of their own learning and not rely on you.
Self-rating after a task or session, to critically reflect on their own learning performance, can encourage your child to be more responsible for their own learning and helps to develop their judgmental skills. Consider a reward / monitoring chart to keep up motivation and recording of progress.
