How To Create a Lesson Plan for Your Homeschooled Children

How To Create a Lesson Plan for Your Homeschooled Children
ShareTweetEmail

Homeschooling has many advantages, including flexibility. As a parent, you can determine what is best for your child. Sometimes, that responsibility can become overwhelming, though. You know that your student needs to learn math, reading, and science, but you may not know how to make a lesson plan for each of those subjects. We’ve put together a guide that explains how to create a lesson plan for your homeschooled children, so read on to learn more.

Determine the Student’s Needs

If you’re wondering how to create a lesson plan for your homeschooled children, a good way to start is by determining the student’s needs. You know your children better than anyone, so ask them what they think they need to improve upon. This lays the foundation for open communication. You should also have your children take an assessment at the beginning of the school year. This makes it clear what your child needs to work on and what they’re ready to learn. Homeschool testing is easy and helps maximize your children’s education.

Identify Objectives

Next, identify the objectives you’d like to cover over the course of the year. Once you’ve determined all the subjects you’d like to cover, it’s time to move onto the objectives. Each subject should have a few objectives for the year. An objective is what you’d like your children to know after the lesson or year concludes. There can be objectives for each lesson, but there should also be objectives for the year. One objective for math might be the ability to read a bar graph, whereas your yearly math objective might be to differentiate between one type of graph and another.

Make a Timeline

Lastly, it’s important to make a timeline so you can complete everything you have planned. It’s easy to spend too much time on one thing, so making a timeline helps avoid this problem. Make sure you keep the objectives in mind while you make a timeline. This makes the objectives more obtainable. A timeline also ensures your children are constantly learning, rather than focusing too much on one concept. You can sort the timeline by month if that makes it easier to plan. A timeline makes homeschooling much less stressful for you and your children because it takes away any uncertainties. You can use the timeline as a guide, and so can your children. This keeps everyone well informed throughout the year.
