Keep It Up
The summer is a perfect time to regroup and be encouraged and to brush up on any skills that seemed to be lacking during the previous year. Growing in Homeschool Confidence with Willemien Kruger can help parents grow in their confidence and know-how of home education. Whether you’ve already made the decision to homeschool, are just considering homeschooling, or have been homeschooling for a decade or more, you can benefit from this course that even includes homework assignments for you as you explore how to get started with home education, childhood development phases, learning styles, and developing a course of study. Students who struggled with fractions or who may be encountering fractions next school year, can work through the Fraction Workshop during the summer months. Vivien Owens takes students through twelve weekly units that include printable instructions, practice problems, and answer keys. Students are expected to work on each lesson for 30 minutes or longer during two days of learning. Topics include improper fractions, multiplying fractions, dividing fractions, finding like denominators, adding and subtracting like and unlike denominators, and more.
