Teaching in the moment is the most powerful tool in a home school family’s arsenal. Because you learn together, play together and live together, homeschooling parents and children have countless opportunities for impromptu lessons about anything and everything. For example:
· Cooking dinner can become more than a chore—it can become a lesson in home economics.
· Going grocery shopping can be more than an errand—it can be math practice.
· A trip to the playground can become a crash course in gravity (pun intended).
Children learn best when they are taught in the context of their interests. As natural learners, teaching children in the moment helps them absorb and remember the lessons. When learning is fun, there’s no limit to what your children will do.
