Homeschool Tip #2
Posted in Homeschool Tips on November 10, 2009 by monctonhomeeducatersWant to be more consistent in correcting your children’s paper work? Want your kids to do their corrections?
Here’s a helpful tip: add stickers!
After correcting their work, add stickers. They will look forward to seeing their new stickers and will be reminded to check their work at the same time:)
Some weird and wacky stickers may include:
puffy
scratch n sniff
sparkly
theme stickers
velvet
googly eye stickers….
Have fun!
