Turbo Boost To School Lessons
Teaching time in class is finite and most teachers admit that the core time in any lesson - after interruptions and administration is a lot shorter than most parents think.
The opportunity to recap on the last lesson doesn’t routinely exist, and anything missed from one lesson is abandoned in order that the next lesson can be on schedule. Harsh as this sounds schools have desperately tight deadlines and the recovery of lost time is impractical at school.
If your child is slipping behind the law of averages kicks in. In an average class of 30 the time available to help any one child is understandably limited. Expecting schools to overcome the deficit is problematic, and personal recovery plans become yet another task in a teachers average 60 hour week.
All is not lost. Lessons follow the National Curriculum and most are supported at school with modern teaching resources in the form of educational games. These are ideal for use at home to allow children to practice the lesson content at their own pace with their parents. A far cry from conventional homework, which basically is a form of practice but tends to be seen as a chore and does not fully engage parents. The new approach uses the educational resources used in school. As games they are engaging and great fun for parents to join in.
Spending a little quality time practising with your children in this form helps your child to better understand the lesson. It also lets you become dynamically aware of progress replacing the historic end of term report or parents night at school when valuable time will have been lost.
