The Homebased Classroom
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, there is much uncertainty surrounding the 2020/21 school year. Many parents are opting to continue distance learning or homeschooling versus traditional classroom learning. There are pros and cons to both, but ultimately the best choice is up to the child and how they learn best. If you are considering distance learning, homeschooling or a model of education that involves your child spending most of their time in a home environment, it can be crucial to set up a place that helps them get in the right frame of mind for learning. A place that separates the “home classroom” from the “home” can help foster that shift in mental receptiveness to learning.
