Processing Speed In Your Homeschool: How Long Is Long Enough?


Listen Later

Does your child take forever to work on that math assignment?   How long is long enough? Every kid has THAT subject in their schoolwork. It takes them forever to do and seems to be an infinite source of frustration. 

Thankfully, there is freedom and even benefits in calling it quits at the right time.

Today I'll talk about the mistake of pushing our children to do every problem. Hitting a certain number of problems alone does not accomplish the education we seek for our kids. Small chunks over time yield fruit. 

How do you eat an elephant?  One bite at a time.
