Sick Day For My Student

My young student is sick.  One of the perks of homeschooling is that it’s flexible enough to allow for sick days without the major headache of disruption. 

Thankfully, she’s not bedridden today; it’s only a touch of a cold.  Yet, it’s just enough to annoy her should she need to sit still and concentrate.  However, we can stick with some lighter tasks today.  I’ll sit with her and we’ll read some books together.  We’ll pop in a couple sign language videos and have some fun learning that way.  This is also a great time to reinforce some basic hygiene too.

There is always opportunity for learning.  It’s a matter of keeping your eyes open and using all these moments to your advantage.
