Hello, everybody. Welcome to another CleverlyChanging Podcast. I am one of your hosts I will call, and today we are talking about our second homeschool tip. Yes, we are getting back to the basics for those of you who are interested in learning more about homeschooling and teaching your children. Again, this podcast isn't just for homeschoolers but also for people who want to supplement their child's education. So today, we are talking about Tip number two, lesson plans. Now, if you're not a teacher, no worries. We are going to walk you through how to create a lesson plan and how to make it work for you. So first, I want to share that a lesson plan is important. If you want to organize and prepare information, it keeps you on track and focused. When creating a lesson plan, identify your subject, then research the concept your child needs to learn. So when I was homeschooling, I had to often reteach myself different subjects. So if it had been years since I had seen some of the math problems that I needed to teach to my kids. It wasn't a big worry. It just meant I had to utilize different resources so that I could refresh my memory. One of the tools I use to do that was YouTube, they have great tutorials where people will work out the problems, and you can practice. Also, if you are a bit hesitant about some subjects and you feel like, they are outside of my scope. No worries, you don't have to do it all personally. You can hire tutors, tap into your village, your resources, your support system, and even classes online. So there are multiple ways to ensure your child or children are getting a solid education.

for preschoolers, I feel like preschool and elementary school many of us can handle those areas fairly well on our own. And we should probably go back to thinking about the learning cells. And there are three learning styles I talked about last year. The first was auditory, the second visual, and the third kinesthetic or tactile. And when I was teaching my preschoolers, I often went to the library and got CDs or videos to reinforce those lessons. Kids learn so well through song. So even if you're not a singer, it doesn't mean that your kids don't have to have an opportunity to be exposed to new music, expose them, teach them, and sing with them, but you can also get CDs to sing along, especially if that's not your wheelhouse.
