Homework can often be a challenging task for children who don't feel enthusiastic about academic learning outside of the classroom. While it's natural for some kids to resist homework, there are ways to help your child conquer the ‘homework blues’ and develop a happier relationship with their work.
THE POWER OF ROUTINE
One concept that has gained momentum in recent years is active learning - but what exactly does that phrase mean and how could it benefit your little one’s academic journey?
WHAT IS ACTIVE LEARNING?
Active learning is more than just a teaching methodology; it's a philosophy grounded in the belief that children learn best when they are actively engaged in the learning process. Unlike traditional education, where students absorb information through lectures or rote memorisation, active learning encourages more engagement, personal participation and analysis, to reach a deeper understanding and better retention of new knowledge.
