Homeschooling …so far

Are you homeschooling and homeworking? Here are some observations one day in…

It’s the first full week of homeschooling and these are the lessons learned so far:

  1. Motivating teens is going to be hard work and may require some form of intensive psychological training
  2. Attempts to impose some kind of routine are being strongly resisted by those who have moved very rapidly into summer holiday mode
  3. Old exercise DVDs are a useful alternative to PE and all the team – homeworkers and kids – can join in and keep fit. Thank God for Davina McCall.
  4. Designing home obstacle courses [for fitness purposes] should never be left to nine year olds who have no concept of health and safety
  5. The flexible day has got longer and there is now no real difference between day and night and no sense of what month we are currently in
  6. Incorporating ‘life skills’ into the curriculum [courtesy of Youtube tutorials] is a great way to get essential DIY and housework done
  7. Teenagers seem incapable of anything approaching ‘quiet study’
  8. Toilet paper rationing needs to be firmly policed
  9. There are no films on Netflix that everyone wants to watch
  10. Zoom is being embraced with fervour by the middle aged section, but the young continue to prefer snapchat and anything that their parents cannot get into
  11. Rom coms are coming into their own in an effort to bypass the sheer terror of watching the news
  12. Art and music are going to occupy a much more important part of the home curriculum in a bid to boost people’s mental well being
  13. There is no point in planning any further forward than the next couple of hours.
