High frequency words
High
frequency words
High
frequency words are quite
simply those words which
occur most frequently in written material,
for example,
"and", "the", "as" and
"it". They are often words that have
little meaning on
their own, but they do contribute a great
deal to the meaning of a
sentence.
You
can do this at home by writing the word onto small
pieces of paper
yourself or you can buy the cards pre made
and also use a “free”
on line site and print them out.
I
have posted three examples below.

Ooctober Break 2018
October
Break 2018
Since
starting school in September 2018 my son had his first parents
evening and is currently on his second level 1 book at school.
What
I have found is that despite him being at school a lot of the leaning
is still on the parent/guardian to be very involved in the three
“R's” at home.
Reading
Writing
arithmetic
This
is why I quest myself and think that may be I should home school and
save myslef the time and money it costs to take my son to school
every day on public transport.
At
the moment I get “free” travel for him until his fifth birthday.
I will then have to start paying about £700.00 per term for bus fare
and my own on top.
To
be continued.

Back to school
Back to school, most people are thinking about nothing this week than "back to school" and already I have seen "Christmas" stock on the shelves in stores before "Halloween" Life today seams to be about our next shop our next buy. Even if it means buying things that we do not really need. One thing that I am trying to teach my children in to "Eat to live" and not to "Live to eat" and to only buy thing when they really need to and not just because they think they need them or want them. There is nothing wrong with a little indulgence but I do not want my children to become to commercialized.

Summer August 2018
At
this moment in time it is the beginning of the summer holidays of
2018. The hot weather has finally broken YES!
WE
are looking at arraning Blackberry Picking with the boys this week
and I can not wait!
I
am also getting my oldest ready for school fpr September 2018.
We are still going to home school him and see how school goes. If
we
are finding that school dose not suit our way of life then we
will home school full time.
The
first thing that we are to do with him his to create a “memory
box” that his will have to take into school. This is so that the
my
son and the other children can learn “social interaction
skills”,
“communicational skills” and hopefully be able to find
people in
their class that they may have things in common with. This
will
hopefully enable them to form friendships and also help the
teach
to asses what KS Level my son is at.
We
are still working on getting him to write his own name and the
alphabet, numbers are not really an issue at the moment so I will
see
where he his by January 2019.
I
would love to hear of any project that your children may be up to
over the summer holidays or have been given by their schools.

Key Skills Qualification is a frequently required component of 14-20

Skills is to encourage learners to develop and demonstrate their
skills as well as learn how to select and apply skills in ways that
are appropriate to their particular context.
