How do I make 5-year-olds learn better?

Question

I'm a single mother of cuadruplets(4 girls).They are 5 years old,names R,H,K and S.I have sent R and H to school since this year and I don't send K and S to school - I home-school them.I work from the PC at home and I have time to do that too.I make K and S have 50-minutes-long periods with 10-minutes-long breaks and 'school' is from 8:00h to 14:00h.Both of them also recieve 'homework' for after school time.They always get tired and sleep after that.When during 'school period' they decide to misbehave I spank them with a belt(just 3-4 times) and they already behave.They both don't learn well recently.Would it be better if I make the periods 60 minutes(1 hour) long each,or give them more homework?How would they learn better?

Answer 2

15 years in the past i'd have reported sure. yet with the exploding pre-youngster being pregnant epidemic, i imagine we opt to think lower back how youthful is "too youthful" . i'm particular the sex ed classification for a 5 year previous is a procedures different than for, say a 10 or 13 year previous. yet with both father and mom (or unmarried father and mom) interior the artwork force all day, and care givers turning out to be the confirm (i.e. little ones are gazing themselves and the television and no man or woman is coaching the little ones) someone has to commence declaring something, faster or later. Going at this cost the 35 year previous grandma will be standard.

Please don't spank your kids with a belt. My parents did that to me and offered no apology when I got hit in the face with the buckle once. All that happened was that I developed low self-esteem and I became terrified, absolutely horrified, of my mother, who was the disciplinarian. I grew up learning to be a doormat and to please people at all costs, even men in my relationships, and this has followed me into my marriage. PLEASE recognize the line between fear and respect, there is a difference. Yeah, I was a good kid growing up, because I was always afraid, but then I got in college and realized I didn't have to be afraid of getting hit anymore and I went totally out of control, and my brother was worse, doing cocaine and everything. I drank a lot, even for a college student. I mean a lot. Now, my mom yells at me for not having self-esteem. But I'm an adult, so I just tell her "whatever" and she doesn't have to like what I do.

you need to get on a level with the kids, for example you wantthem to learn their abc, you sing it in a nursery rhymy voice as its more enjoyable to listen too and they pick it up quicker same with time tables, if you make learning fun and enjoyable you can teach them all day they wont want a break, my son could read and write before he was 3 (his full name and three letter words) now he is getting work from two classes above as hes finding the work for his age group so easy he gets through it very quickly he even has a job in school when he finishes his work to go to those who are struggling and try and explain how he did it, by making learning fun at a young age i have instilled a want to learn in my child, he picks up everything now, he even creates experiments at home at the moment he is studying the fizz in fizzy poptrying to figure what makes it go flat what makes it fizz up, he is truly a wonder, the only trouble is now i feel there is no more i can teach him i feel inadequate, as for the belt the only belt my sons had is the one that holds his trousers up, praise for doing right teaches more than beatings when wrong

Answer 5

Spanking children with a belt is abuse. You need to stop! You need to educate yourself on discipline. You are ruining their self-esteem. Why would they want to learn from you if they are scared of being abused by a belt? Proper discipline and teaching go hand in hand. You are going to have serious problems if you don't get help.

Answer 6

stop beating your kids. have quiet time or something.

no extending 60 minute period will not help them learn more. it actually would have the opposite effect, they may get bored and tired and will stop listening. maybe u should send them to school instead of homeschooling.

Answer 7

Why would you send two to school and keep two home? You need to send them all to school and stop hitting them with a belt. You sound abusive, I feel sorry for your kids.

Answer 8

I don't think this is a serious question.
Heck.....I would hope a mom of "Quadruplets" would at least know how to spell the word.
