Foster active learning: Active learning is key for children to understand and embrace concepts in the right way, especially for subjects like Science. A good way to do this is to encourage children to choose the topics they want to learn and how. For complex topics in Physics, Chemistry and Biology, animated videos, games etc always helps students visualise and understand the concept in the best possible way.
Encourage research: Online education platforms offer a plethora of engaging content that fuels a child’s interest and curiosity. It’s important for parents to encourage research as a part of children’s daily learning activities. For instance, if your child is asked to work on a project around types of tropical plants, it’s important to help them explore, search and understand such topics.
Experiment and learn: Studies have shown that experiments foster stronger conceptual understanding. Not only does it help children gain knowledge in the process, they also develop social and emotional skills that are vital to a well-rounded child. Exploring DIY science experiments from online learning platforms can be a great start. While this might sound like a task, in reality, creating STEM activities at home can actually be quite simple. From storing your DNA in a jar with ingredients like salt, paper cups and dishwasher soap to being an environmental hero by making one’s own compost, experimenting at home can be fun and easy. Moreover, hands-on activities can give direction to the curiosity of the child and can also lead to great bonding between parents and children.
