Freebie Friday - Writing Prompt on Typhoon Preparedness

 While my son does answer grammar exercises, he prefers doing writing activities. One of the simplest writing activity that kids can finish in less than an hour is writing using a prompt.  Our country just experienced a couple of strong typhoons resulting to devastating flood. This prompted (see what I did there) us to think of activities that would not only help my son prepare for such emergencies but also to make him write. Below are a couple of writing prompts geared for that. One is in English and the other in Filipino. To keep updated with the latest Aral Tayo material, like and follow us on Facebook.

How to Make Online Learning Work for You - Tip #2

Studying at home can be awfully hard because there are so many distractions available. If you find yourself skipping doing your school requirements because you were too busy watching tv or checking social media, then it is time to get rid of all the distractions (not permanently, of course). Blocking out distractions can come in different forms. You might find it easier to tune out the things around you with music. If that doesn’t work for you, it might be easier to leave a distracting place and find somewhere quieter to study. You just have to discover which strategy best works for you. Turning off your cell phone might be the hardest thing for you to do but is essential if you keep looking up from your book because of notifications popping up. If this is not something you can do, try installing a website blocker app. Want to learn more about online learning? Please visit our Aral Tayo Facebook page. Need help with your lessons?
