school holidays for alicia



I dont know how homeschool parents do it.
After alicias parent teacher interview last week . we decided she needed a little extra tutoring or well needed to learn more without being distracted at school with friends etc. alicia has the brains and potential just needs to listen more in class and finish her work.
So every morning im a mean mum and i have her do some practice maths test and her times tables. Hans also does time tables at night with her sometimes she cooperates but other times just has better things to do with her holidays (like any kids right). But practice makes perfect...i dont want her to be perfect just to pass.

I did the same thing with my boys. They always asked why they had to do it. I always told extra practice is great. What great parents Alicia has.
