Angie Cole: 我分享了我的家庭背景以及我们如何通过社交媒体发现并应用夏洛特·梅森教育方法的经历。我们已经在家教育了13年,其中8年采用了夏洛特·梅森的方法。起初,我感到筋疲力尽,但夏洛特·梅森的方法让我找到了平衡,不再感到压力山大。我理解教育的重点不在于完成任务,而在于理解和享受学习过程,并相信圣灵是伟大的导师。 我们参与了四个学习小组:自然俱乐部、每月公园日活动、高中生学习小组和个人读书小组。这些小组活动平均每周只占用一天的时间,并且我们根据孩子的年龄和兴趣选择合适的活动。自然俱乐部帮助我们培养对自然的热爱,每月公园日活动让孩子们有更多与同龄人玩耍的时间,高中生学习小组则帮助孩子们进行更深入的学习和讨论,而个人读书小组则满足了孩子们对阅读的兴趣。 在建立学习小组的过程中,我们采取了循序渐进的方式,从小型活动开始,逐渐扩大规模。我们也注重选择那些能够让整个家庭参与的活动。我们发现,学习小组不仅丰富了我们的家庭教育体验,也帮助我们建立了志同道合的朋友关系,并拓展了孩子的学习机会。 在选择学习小组时,我们需要权衡利弊,考虑时间、精力和资源的投入产出。我们需要考虑活动对家庭日常安排的影响,以及活动是否真正符合家庭的需求和孩子的兴趣。我们也尝试过试运行的方式,来评估活动的有效性和可行性。 总而言之,在夏洛特·梅森教育方法中,平衡社区参与的关键在于祈祷、咨询配偶、试运行以及权衡利弊。我们需要根据家庭的实际情况,选择合适的学习小组和活动,并确保这些活动能够真正促进孩子的学习和成长。 Emily Kaiser, Nicole Williams, Liz Gattrill: 我们就Angie Cole分享的经验进行了深入的探讨,并就如何平衡家庭教育和社区参与提出了建议。我们赞赏Angie Cole在家庭教育和社区参与方面取得的平衡,并鼓励其他家长在寻求学习小组或其他教育机会时,要祈祷、咨询配偶、试运行并权衡利弊,确保这些活动能够真正促进孩子的学习和成长,并且不会对家庭的日常安排造成过大的影响。
