A Closer Look at the Art of Making Schooling Engaging and Fun for Young Children

Following the COVID-19 pandemic, many parents are considering the long-term benefits of providing their children a quality education from home. If you have young children, you may feel slightly uncertain about making the switch to online schooling.

Will your children acclimatise to the new flow? Will they pay attention to their classes like they would in a conventional classroom? Will they enjoy their lessons and retain knowledge?

At Cambridge Home School, our MA/PhD qualified subject specialist teachers are particularly focused on delivering engaging, stimulating, enjoyable, and fun lessons to young students. Continue reading to find out how we make this possible.

1. Advanced Technology

Young children learn better when they find their lessons interesting and exciting. We utilise advanced online learning software solutions and engaging audio-visual elements to make each lesson attention-grabbing.

Our students remain engrossed in their lessons through and through, which helps them learn and retain knowledge more effectively. By making schooling fun, we significantly improve learning outcomes. Our students actively participate in class and secure excellent grades.

2. Personalised Examples

We’re big believers in the efficacy of personalised examples. By combining academics with individualised storytelling, our teachers are able to keep every student engaged, excited, and eager to learn.

We provide ample examples with different topics and subtopics, especially those that are a little tricky for children to understand. By personalising the examples, we make the experience more enjoyable for young students.

For instance, if students are working on Math word problems, our teachers will include them in the examples to make things more fun.

3. Activities and Games

Young students can easily get bored. If their lessons don’t include engaging components like fun activities and games, they can easily lose interest.

We plan lots of relevant quizzes, games, activities, and presentations to a) make each lesson easier to digest, b) give students a chance to utilise their skills, c) increase engagement and retention levels, and d) make the class more exciting!

As one of the most prestigious online schools in the UK, Europe (including Western Russia), Africa, the Middle East, and Central Asia, we’re committed to making online learning engaging and fun for young students.

If you’re considering switching from conventional (in-person) schooling to online schooling for your child, explore our four homeschooling programs: Primary Prep/Key Stage 2 (ages 8 to 10), Lower School/Key Stage 3 (ages 11 to 13), Upper School/IGCSEs (ages 14 to 16), and Sixth Form/AS & A-Levels (ages 17 to 19).
