The Birth Of A Free Home School Lesson

Off-the-cuff free home school lessons should be reserved for emergencies

. All other free home school lessons should receive the meticulous planning that all learners deserve.

The Preparation of a Free Home School Lesson E.G. Spices

Firstly, the short-term goal of the free home school lesson should be chosen. This is usually academic, logical, obvious and related to the required curriculum, for example familiarizing learners with spices for which such long and dangerous trips were made, first overland, and then by sea after the sea route to the East was discovered in 1498.

Next, the long-term goals of the free home school lesson should be established. These should relate to the enrichment of the lives of the learners and to take them into adult life and should be both relevant and inspiring, for example, it could lead to greater understanding of the purpose of spices then and now, life at sea in the 16th Century and the enjoyment of relevant poetry and art works.

Planning the scope of the lesson is deciding on how much information to include and where to begin and end. There should be an introduction, the body of the lesson and the conclusion or punch-line. At all times, three matters must be borne in mind - holding the attention of the learners; the integrity of the free home school lesson content; and the learners' input.

For example the body of the lesson could involve certain spices passed around amongst the learners to get their reaction to the smell and the feel of them and the ancient and modern purposes of each individual spice discussed. The introduction and conclusion should be designed with the particular learners in mind.

The application for the learners is usually in the form of an activity, like tasting a few dishes prepared with spices, in conjunction with a free home school worksheet. Then there should be a plan to follow up the free home school lesson or application or it should be related to another free home school lesson, for example, a free home school lesson on the spice trade sea voyages.

Once the skeleton of the free home school lesson has been drawn, the material required should be decided upon. This would be the spices themselves; their presentation; the cooked dishes; the means to keep them warm; and the cutlery, crockery and serviettes to be used.

With excellent preparation (down to the finest possible details), passion, a desire to motivate and inspire, the lesson should be highly successful and turn the most unwilling learners into having a thirst for doing their own research on the subject to find out more, and to putting into practice what they have learnt.
