  • Some Help with Home School - Watch Classic Television
    Some Help with Home School - Watch Classic Television Disclaimer: I am a former k-12 teacher. I have never been involved in the homeschool movement which some people choose in place of sending their children to traditional schools. The term “Home School” as used here refers to the work that you will do with your children over the next few weeks during the quarantine. Again, these ideas are not vetted by the homeschool movement. However, I was a public school th th teacher for 13 years, teaching 7 and 11 grades. I am National Board-certified in English/Language Arts for Adolescents and Young Adults. I hold an earned Ph.D. in Education. The following advice is offered in a spirit of collaboration with directions from your children’s teachers. -Jeanine A. Irons, Ph.D. Guiding Thought: Use one resource in multiple ways to facilitate learning. It is possible to use relatively ordinary experiences to supplement your children’s education in multiple ways. Classic television shows can lead to rich learning experiences. “The Andy Griffith Show” is one example. This particular show can be viewed on cable tv, Tubi, Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, fuboTV, and Philo. The following information gives some ideas on how to use “The Andy Griffith Show” to facilitate geography, character analysis, handwriting, and/or diversity learning experiences for children of various ages. You can view multiple episodes, in any order*, and use different ideas each time. You can pick and choose from the ideas provided and/or use your own ideas, based on factors you deem significant, such as your children’s ages.
