Mistakes – BLOOPERS! by Francesca Pansadoro

What is planning?
16 September 2019School begins: this time should be experienced as a new opportunity. Share with your children, whatever their age, the emotions, fears and goals that await them when school begins. On a practical level, it is also important to convey to them the value of how to prepare for this new journey.
My tips for when school starts
- The care of their own materials. The stationery they will need are a great resource for giving importance to organization. Choosing, notebooks, pens and journal (without being a slave to fashions) is fun but also an assumption of responsibility, knowing that those items are needed to face "the journey" and one will have to take good care of them.
- Dedicated study space... for the lucky ones who have a room with their own desk, it will be easier to understand the importance of the place where you devote yourself to study, but even for those who do not have a dedicated space, choosing an area of the house where you feel comfortable and where you will not be disturbed is important. Choose a comfortable chair, the right lighting, and a timer to set the pace for breaks.
- Always give room for their creativity Have them design their own labels, for books, notebooks and even for the right containers, get them involved, they are preparing their new journey!
