Thank you for sharing your homeschooling knowledge! ♡
Thanks for sharing.
In my opinion, linguistic knowledge helps grow intellectual thinking capabilites, could be wrong, it just seems that bilingual/trilingual people are more intelligent
How do I motivate my child to learn anything? She likes being on her iPad all day long. She is learning, and she is great with computer programs, but if I ask her foe assistance with a program, she just says No. She just wants to chat with people on chats. And I don't have enough money to take her to see amazing things.
Set limits on the iPad and take her places that are free or cheap: the library, nature preserves, parks, botanical gardens, bookstores, art galleries. Join your local homeschool community and go to events that they put on so she meets other kids. Engage in activities with her that don’t involve screens. Read books with her. Watch documentaries and other educational programs with her. Get to know her and see what she enjoys and like to talk to you about. You’ll get there. 👍🏻
Hey, I love these ideas, but I have a question. How do you handle teaching children self discipline and perseverance when something "isn't fun anymore". How do we make sure we aren't just raising kids that flit from thing to thing but never get good at anything because they don't want to put in the hard work and effort it takes to become competent?
I was homeschooled, I wanted to learn the violin so my mum signed me up for lessons. Practicing was not Fun, I often struggled to practise, and was somewhat "forced" to practise because "we're paying for these lessons so you'd better out the effort in". But I am so glad my parents kept me going in that because now I can actually play the violin to a somewhat decent level. So my original goal has been achieved. If my parents had just let me stop when it wasn't fun anymore, I'd never have become competent. What are your thoughts on this?
Hi! I teach my kids discipline through activities like brushing their teeth, picking up after themselves, doing their own laundry, mowing the lawn, taking out trash, dressing themselves and making sure the clothes go into the hamper, etc. These are skills that all kids need to be functioning adults.
When it comes to activities that they choose (say, joining a sports team or learning how to use computer software), in my experience my kids have the self discipline and perseverance to keep going and master what they need to master to get where they want to go with it. I don't have to push them to keep trying to do something they care about getting right.
I have always let my kids try whatever they're interested in (classes, clubs, teams) so they can find out whether they like it or not. If they're not interested in it, I don't make them keep going because they won't get anything out of it. All of them have tried lots of things and learned from each experience, and now have a better idea what they want to pursue and they don't.
In your example, you chose to start playing the violin, and even though it was hard to practice sometimes, you probably wanted to keep going in addition to your parents forcing you to keep going because you truly wanted to master the violin, right?
All that said, your homeschool, your rules. If you want your kids to always stick with what they start, that is your right and you should do what you believe is best for you and your kids. I believe in you!
