How can I scale the curriculum up for my child’s academic level?
Dr. Robin’s School is designed to be flexible and adaptable to different learning needs and academic levels. Here are some ways you can scale the Every Body’s Human Biology curriculum up for your child:
1. Choose the Comprehensive Schedule: Opt for Schedule C, which covers all aspects of the curriculum in greater depth and is ideal for students who want a more challenging experience.
2. Encourage Deeper Exploration: Use the “Ask Dr. Robin” feature to dive deeper into specific topics of interest. Encourage your child to formulate their own questions and explore concepts beyond the core lessons.
3. Utilize the Curated Video Library: Supplement the curriculum with videos from the library. These videos offer different perspectives and explanations, enriching your child’s understanding.
4. Engage in Discussions: Discuss the material with your child regularly. Ask open-ended questions, encourage them to explain concepts in their own words, and challenge them to apply their knowledge to new situations.
5. Explore Related Topics: Encourage your child to research related topics that pique their interest. This could involve reading books, watching documentaries, or exploring online resources.
6. Ask for Help:If you’re feeling overwhelmed or unsure how to best support your child, reach out to Nurse Jill for assistance. She can provide guidance and resources to help you tailor the curriculum to your child’s needs.
8. Utilize Quizlet: Encourage your child to use Quizlet beyond just the pre-made study sets. They can create their own sets, use the platform to generate practice tests, and explore the various learning games available.
9. Independent Research: Challenge your child to conduct independent research on specific topics. This could involve writing reports, creating presentations, or even designing their own experiments.
10. Embrace Challenges: Don’t shy away from challenging your child with complex questions and concepts. Encourage them to think critically and problem-solve, even if it means struggling at times.
By utilizing these strategies, you can ensure that Every Body’s Human Biology provides a challenging and enriching experience for your child, regardless of their academic level.
