I hear from a lot of parents who are worried about their children\u2019s learning.\xa0 They tell me things like:\n\n \n\n\u201cI want to encourage my child\u2019s learning and creativity and confidence as a learner without solely focusing on literacy and numeracy.\u201d\n\n \n\n\u201cWe\u2019ve been in lockdown here in Melbourne for a very long time, with my older kids learning remotely, and I feel that a lot of the tasks they are given by their school are a bit \u2026 uninspiring. It\u2019s so cool when there is something that really engages them and I\u2019m trying to find more things like that.\u201d\n\n \n\n\u201cI am wary about the school system squashing the natural instinct to learn, as I feel it did with me. But I'm hoping we can provide the attitude and environment at home to mitigate this.\u201d\n\n \n\n\u201cWhat we have read about traditional schooling is a bit disheartening but something we have to embrace for now. So it is important that with the time we have outside of school we do the best we can to encourage his spark for exploration and learning.\u201d\n\n \n\n\u201cMy children are already in school. Even though they (and I) are happy with their school and learning so far, I would love to learn how I can support them better and help them being more motivated and stay curious. The challenges of distant-learning that we experienced during the lockdowns have highlighted that I find it difficult to be a good teacher for them and I would like to change that.\u201d\n\n \n\nIf you could have said (or have already said!) one or more of these things yourself, then I want to introduce you to Madeline.\n\n \n\nShe describes all three of her children as \u2018spirited\u2019 (you can kind of see it in their eyes, right?!)\n\n \n\nWhen I first met her, she wanted to know that she was doing everything she could to support their intrinsic love of learning in the preschool years - and she wasn\u2019t sure whether or not they would go to school.\xa0\xa0\n\n \n\nIn this episode we discuss some of the Learning Explorations she\u2019s done with them, how she became confident that she really was meeting each child\u2019s learning needs, and what decision she ultimately made about school!\n\n \n\n \n\n\nAnd if you:\n\nKnow that an intrinsic love of learning is so important, but don\u2019t know how to help your child to develop it;\nWorry that you can\u2019t effectively support your child\u2019s learning because you aren\u2019t an expert and don\u2019t have a teaching credential\u2026\n\n \n\n\u2026then the FREE You Are Your Child\u2019s Best Teacher masterclass will help.
