I love FREE PICK FRIDAYS, and so do the kiddos!
This is my way of rewarding good behavior during school time.If the child has completed all work and been a nice, polite student, he/she gets to pick what they want to do for the school subjects.
Examples:
Biblical Lesson - Child picks to watch a video with biblical teachings or lessons.
Reading - reading on starfall.com with associated learning games
Home Ec. - making favorite snack or learning to crochet a potholder
You get the idea... FUN! School and learning SHOULD be fun.
I kid you not, my kids have usually completed MORE work on Free Pick Fridays than I would have assigned.
Fun makes the learning go down!
Suggestion: Limit each school subject to 30 minutes or at least a set time and USE A TIMER! The kids have had so much FUN that they thought I was cutting their time short! LOL !
Today is Spanish Day.... Buenos dias!
