Flat Rock, Michigan – August 11, 2010 – Through the use of a
digital syllabus and specialized children curriculum, Complete Curriculum can help your homeschooling environment create an improved learning experience. There are certain skills developed through homeschooling that provide a child with an extraordinary advantage over traditional learning methods.
Independent thinking is an important skill that a child develops in a homeschooling environment. The traditional learning environment does not emphasize the importance of independent thinking. As a result, children become easily influenced by peers. The instructor can use a
custom textbook with the child to help develop the skill of independent thinking.
The important skill of concentration can be keenly developed through the education grade level content used in a homeschooling environment. When there are larger groups of children in a particular setting, the child can find it harder to develop this skill. In a controlled environment with fewer children, the child is able to easily concentrate. Concentration directly affects a child’s performance in testing environments.
Decision-making is an important skill that is difficult to develop in traditional classroom settings because children are often controlled through schedules and rules. In a homeschooling environment, an instructor is able to assist the child in developing this skill by cultivating certain values through the
balanced curriculum with the child to help develop the skill of independent thinking. assigned. Decision-making skills equip a child in resisting negative peer pressure.
Time management is an important skill a child develops in a homeschooling learning environment. The traditional classroom creates a scheduled environment because it’s required to maintain a certain level of order within often overcrowded classrooms. Time management is a skill that helps a child balance recreational activities with academics.
The skills developed through the homeschooling learning environment provide the child with an exceptional learning experience. It has been said by Gene Royer that, “Homeschooling and public schooling are as opposite as two sides of a coin. In a homeschooling environment, the teacher need not be certified, but the child MUST learn. In a public school environment, the teacher MUST be certified, but the child need NOT learn.”
