How to make your teenager work without looking like it?

Schools have been closed since Monday March 16 to prevent the spread of Covid-19 as much as possible. A change in habits for children and parents, who find themselves teaching at home. To keep learning and not lose the rhythm, it is possible to make learning a little more fun.

Mathematical

Math can quickly become repetitive and boring. To avoid losing your child between functions and variables, we suggest you alternate courses at home with fun video lessons on math chapters. Here is a list of channels:

• DigiSchool – posted on Youtube, digiSchool videos support middle and high school students and post-baccalaureate students with lessons given by associate professors. On the program, there are videos on French, history but also on mathematics. At the college level, there are courses on linear functions, remarkable identities or even affine functions.

• Hans Amble – still on Youtube, this associate professor of math in high school offers content to understand mathematics. Small difference, here, we only hear the voice of the professor who shares his screen with us. On the program: fractions, algebra or even percentages.

French

• To vary the activities, we suggest that you do family baccalaureate degrees. This game will allow your child and yourself to explore your knowledge. To make the rules a little harder, we advise you to use unusual letters and to add categories of words like: author / author or even cinematographic works / literary works.

• Talks are a great way to test your child's knowledge in a fun way. This time, you can prepare the presentation for two, and the jury will be made up of family members.
