I am a trained primary school teacher and a published author. Now I’m a full time mum to two beautiful and boisterous boys.
I've got loads of fun ideas about how to do this in a relaxed and playful environment. The ideas will work for children of all ages.
Hide and Seek Learning are running courses to share our understanding of teaching, learning and the importance of parental involvement. We fully recognise the importance for young children to learn through play and exploration.
The workshops are fun and fully interactive. There will be lots of chances to share ideas and to see how these will work for you with your unique family and environment. Workshops can be done in Hatch End or at your house...see below for further details.
The workshops are aimed at all parents, whether you work or stay at home or home-educate and whether your children are state or privately educated. Also welcome are grandparents, legal guardians, nannies and childminders...or anyone else who is interested!
If your child has any special educational needs but is mainstream educated then the ideas we are sharing are equally relevant. Contact us and we will let you know which course would be most appropriate.
The Hide and Seek philosophy
How children learn most effectively
How to encourage creative thinking with clever questions
Do's and Don'ts for supporting your children's learning
Useful resources to keep at home
Positive Behaviour Strategies
Lots and lots of inspiring ideas for...pre-reading and reading skills, pre-writing and writing skills, numeracy, speech and language, science, geography, history, music, creative skills...and probably more!!
If you can find 6 people who are able to do the workshops, I will run them at your house (or mine if you prefer) at a time suitable for you. Provide the refreshments and you will get the workshops for free! I will do this anywhere in London, or within an hours drive from Harrow.
If you are interested in taking part, but the time does not suit you, please let me know what times you would be able to do. I will be putting on new dates and time slots all the time.
Coming soon: The Dad's workshop - an overview of Hide and Seek Learning in a one-evening course.
Apologies! This website is under reconstruction so please bear with us if it doesn't look up to scratch!! All the information is up to date and hopefully in the new year the site will be looking much more visually attractive!!
This is our longer course with inspiration guaranteed and much more detail to cover all the curriculum areas.
There will be plenty of money-saving ideas as well as information about current research into education and practical tips.
The ideas are adaptable and versatile so that they will work with different children's needs and the needs of all the family
