Hi there,

I hope you are well! It has been quite some time since I've sent out a newsletter. My year started with two new educational developments: the producing of Life of Fred videos for the online course and launching Homeschool Classroom PLUS more maths tutoring! ( See Google Reviews for parents' feedback.)

Life of Fred

BIG REMINDER: Life of Fred Online Course will only be available until 30 June 2026. There is still time to register and complete this pilot course by the cut-off date. If you need an extension, I will ask the publisher if he could extend the permission time period for any current registered students. My heart's desire is to have all the grade 4-7 books ( 5 books in total) available online. For now, we have the first book of the intermediate series available - KIDNEYS.

It introduces functions, fractions, exponents, percentages, elapsed time computations, converting of measurements, volume, area, money change, time/clock, sets, algebra, arithmetic sequence, sigma notation….and lots of funny adventures!! We also recap foundational maths skills e.g. long addition, subtraction, multiplication and division.

Don't delay and miss this opportunity! This course partners with you to solidify your child's foundational maths skills and prepare them for their next phase of maths.

Homeschool Classroom

In short, Homeschool Classroom offers online homeschooling classroom options. If you are looking for a single subject or full curriculum that is self-paced or has live online lessons, Homeschool Classroom has a well seasoned selection to choose from.

It all started with my own need for an " English Language Arts Classroom" for my son who will be starting high school next year. We have been doing eclectic homeschooling and unit studies mostly over the years but I needed a course that would just fill in any "gaps" that I hadn't covered yet - to prepare him for high school. The US K-8 self-paced curriculum was just perfect. Even though all the subjects are available, we just used the Language Arts course. He only did the gaps and didn't have to go through all the grade levels, which was just what we were wanting! It's a wonderful resource for homeschool parents who just need that extra assistance or structure.

This is just one option at Homeschool Classroom. It is the most affordable one too at just R490/m for a full, self-paced curriculum. No registration fees, just a monthly subscription, which you can cancel at any time. It is also ideal if you prefer a hybrid approach of online mixed with offline/seat work. A student can either do all the work online or mix it by using downloadable pdf activities . Parents will receive the work problems with the solutions - which helps for the higher grades!
