Online Learning at Home
Learning at home and online becomes less challenging with schedules and
routines that work for the whole family. As you think about structuring your
student\u2019s day effectively, you\u2019ll want to consider things like:
\u25cf the age of your student(s)
\u25cf the number of learners you have in the home
\u25cf the types of learning activities they are assigned
\u25cf access to a computer\/tablet\/Smartphone, if needed
\u25cf how long your student can work on a learning activity
\u25cf how often your student will need breaks
\u25cf how your own schedule impacts that of your student
Younger students thrive with structure and routine in their days, and their focus
time for a particular activity will be significantly shorter than that of older
students. Middle school and high school students benefit from some level of
flexibility and autonomy in building their schedules. Work with your older
students to create a daily schedule that works well for them. Reevaluate at the
end of each day to determine whether adjustments should be made. And don\u2019t
forget, it does take some time to get adjusted to new routines.
When your child is not tied to a school bell, your life and learning time can be
more flexible. So when you think of schedules, think more broadly across the
day. Consider the following blocks of time that should be worked into students\u2019
school days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
