This document compares and contrasts homeschooling and public schooling. It outlines some of the key pros and cons of each approach. The main pros of homeschooling are more flexibility in curriculum and schedule, lower cost, more individualized teaching, and a safer environment. However, homeschooling may offer fewer opportunities, less social interaction, and require a large time investment from families. Public schooling provides more curriculum options, extracurricular activities, and diverse social settings, but has larger class sizes, less flexibility, and potential issues like bullying. Ultimately, the document concludes that there is no single right answer and the best approach depends on each individual student's needs.
China has significant economic and political interests in sub-Saharan Africa due to its growing demand for natural resources and need for new export markets. It pursues these interests through oil and infrastructure deals primarily in Sudan, Nigeria, and Angola. These deals ensure Chinese access to African oil, minerals, and agricultural goods while expanding China's exports. Though China provides needed development assistance, some criticize that its approach risks perpetuating African dependence and ignores governance issues.
2010 will bring luck. Capitalise on this by staying motivated, and planning and timing your actions carefully. You’re lively and brave – just don’t be stubborn! It’s a good period for affairs of the heart.
Charlotte Mason advocated for an education approach that focused on exposing children to "living books" or whole, quality works of literature rather than excerpts or anthologies. Students would narrate what they read to help them retain information. Lessons were short but frequent to allow for in-depth study of many subjects. Nature was also an important part of the curriculum through weekly nature walks and time spent outdoors daily. Art, journaling, copywork, dictation and creating a "Book of the Centuries" were also incorporated into Mason's philosophy of education. Afternoons were left open for free time activities.
Using Copybooks In The Core Knowledge ClassroomKrystal Kroeker
The document discusses using copybooks in Core Knowledge classrooms. It defines copybooks as student-created notebooks that help retain information by allowing students to record facts, drawings, diagrams and notes from class lessons. The presenter explains the benefits of copybooks based on their experience and research, including increased student engagement and better retention of content. Examples of student copybook pages are provided covering different Core Knowledge topics. [/SUMMARY]
This document contains a weekly schedule template for Charlotte Mason style homeschooling. It includes blocks for subjects like literature, geography, history, math, copywork/dictation, nature study, daily walks, art appreciation, music, poetry, handicrafts, and life skills to be filled in on a daily basis from Monday through Friday. Friday has a modified schedule focusing on a daily walk, literature, and social activities. There are also sections for weekend activities and notes to be documented. The purpose is to provide a structured yet flexible format to plan curricular activities for homeschooling using the Charlotte Mason method.
This document provides information and strategies for memorizing scripture. It discusses why memorizing scripture is important, such as strengthening one's prayer life and witnessing. Some key strategies include choosing relevant verses, starting small and working up to larger passages, using different "memories" like reading aloud and writing, and learning one's preferred learning style which could include visual, auditory, verbal, physical, logical, social or solitary styles. Specific techniques are suggested for each style like using images/cards, recording oneself, creating songs, writing repeatedly, and sharing verses with others. Repetition and regular review are emphasized as important for memorization.
Two million American children are homeschooled. Parents choose homeschooling for various reasons such as feeling they can better educate their children themselves or to remove children from peer pressure. Interviews with two mothers who homeschool reveal pros like individualized attention but also potential cons like less socialization. Research shows homeschooled children perform equal or better academically and socially compared to traditionally schooled children. Long term effects can be positive if children have opportunities for socialization through extracurricular activities.
Homeschooling involves educating children at home rather than in public or private schools. It is recognized as a legal alternative in many countries. In the Philippines, homeschooling is recognized by DepEd if the parent-teacher is college-educated and can provide at least 4 hours of daily instruction for grades K-7. Popular homeschooling methods include classical, Montessori, unschooling, and Waldorf approaches. Major accredited homeschool programs in the Philippines include Alternative Learning of Asia, Angelicum College, Catholic Filipino Academy, Harvest Christian School International, The Master's Academy, and The School of Tomorrow. These programs provide DepEd-recognized curricula and support to homeschooling families.

2. Teachers will demonstrate how to create accounts, build pages, and compile books on the site. Students will work in groups to create sections and present their completed books.
3. The project aligns with science and technology standards and will be assessed through student participation, application of content knowledge, and presentation of their final books.
The document discusses didactic materials and their importance in the classroom. It defines didactic materials as any resources used by teachers to make learning more meaningful, such as flashcards, posters, maps, and videos. The document outlines several benefits of using didactic materials, such as developing student abilities, improving attitude, and stimulating senses and interest. It also discusses different types of didactic materials like drawings on the blackboard, stick figures, wall charts, and coursebooks. The document emphasizes that teachers must adapt materials to meet student needs and interests.
This document discusses organizing literacy instruction using thematic units and considerations for organizing the classroom. It begins by explaining that thematic units can motivate students by tapping into their natural curiosity around a topic. This provides direction for teachers in planning related lessons across subjects. The document then discusses steps for developing thematic units, including choosing a topic, gathering materials, assessing learning, and creating guiding questions. It provides examples of how to organize the classroom to support literacy, such as designating spaces for whole group, independent, and small group work. The key takeaways are that thematic units can integrate content areas while building background knowledge and that classroom organization should allow for various learning activities.
This document presents information about flipped classrooms including:
- A flipped classroom moves activities like lectures outside of class time and uses class time for hands-on work and discussions.
- Benefits include personalized learning, one-on-one teacher time, and students learning at their own pace. Challenges include reliance on student preparation and increased screen time.
- Steps for implementing a flipped classroom include getting buy-in, creating online resources, managing the classroom, providing technology training, and assigning content for homework.
- An example lesson plan is provided that focuses on gas exchange in the lungs and uses a storytelling activity in groups.
The document discusses didactic materials which are resources used by teachers to make learning more meaningful. It provides examples of didactic materials like flashcards, posters, and real-world objects. The purposes of didactic materials are to develop student abilities, improve attitudes, promote imagination and self-knowledge, and motivate learning. Effective didactic materials should be tailored to student needs and linked to clear learning objectives. The document also reflects on using materials like the blackboard and coursebooks in classroom activities and the importance of adapting materials for different student skills and backgrounds.
The lesson teaches students about respect through reading the book "How Full is Your Bucket" and creating buckets to display respectful behaviors. Students will summarize what respect means, identify respectful and disrespectful behaviors, and create a personal plan to demonstrate respect. Assessment includes think-pair-share, participation in creating an anchor chart on respectful behaviors, journaling, and displaying buckets. Students are encouraged to fill each other's buckets with notes about respectful acts.
Building Academic Language in the ESL ClassroomElisabeth Chan
This document provides examples of activities to build students' academic English skills, including writing, reading, speaking, and vocabulary. For writing, it suggests explicitly teaching the writing process, focusing on content by having students add details, and reconstructing texts to work on cohesion. For reading, it recommends extensive reading, engaging students through real-world connections, and explicitly teaching reading strategies. For speaking, it discusses raising awareness of academic spoken English. And for vocabulary, it offers ideas like teaching the four parts of a word chart and having students create four-square entries to learn and remember new words.
The VAK model describes three main learning styles - visual, auditory, and kinesthetic. Visual learners absorb information through sight, auditory learners through listening, and kinesthetic learners through physical experience and movement. While people may have a dominant style, integrating activities that engage all three learning styles can help more learners feel comfortable and engaged. Recognizing different styles in students allows teachers to differentiate instruction and incorporate a variety of teaching methods and activities into their lessons.
This document discusses the author's experiences using ability grouping and differentiated instruction in their classroom. Some key points:
1) The author uses within-class ability grouping, where students are regrouped by ability for certain subjects like math and reading. Groups work at different paces based on their needs and abilities.
2) The author differentiates instruction using various strategies tailored to different learning abilities, including reading, writing, spelling, and math activities.
3) Technology is incorporated to support ability grouping, through interactive websites, writing tools, and math games tailored to different levels.
