pingu Report post Posted August 6, 2009 (edited) Hi there peeps old and new. sorry i havent been around much. i still have this site set as my homepage and i regularly look through at everyone comming and going, but to post here myself has felt a little awkard because of everything that has happened. No doubt i am still prohibited to discuss what those things are, so i wont push my luck by mentioning that i am in a black hole.. But i thought for those who remembered us, that you deserve to know we are all still breathing at least. the kids are ok - emotionally wrecked but recovering slowly, they are all still at home (educated) and if anyone could give me a few new ideas for topics for the autumn term i would be grateful. ive been doing it for 18 months now and have exhausted most things, but others are welcome to kick start me if they wish I hope each and everyone of you are coping and handling what ever is been thrown at you in your lives right now. my best wishes are with you all. Take care everyone. Meus Universitas Aka Shaz /pingu. Edited August 6, 2009 by pingu Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kazzen161 Report post Posted August 7, 2009 I don't envy you home-educating. Have you tried doing topic based work - linking maths, literacy and ICT with the topic? Making a wormery? Tudors/Romans/dinosaurs/rivers? Writing letters/stories/book report? Calculating the paint/wallpaper/carpet for a room? You could design a zoo and incorporate measuring, animals, geography, advertising, website, writing info about the animals, cookery (for the cafe), etc. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
