1 – Limit the mobile phone
-First of all, children need a routine by age group. With the pandemic, our children may have formed new and different habits that will adversely affect their cognitive development, such as the increase in the frequency of phone use during the holiday period and the increase in time spent with the tablet.
2 – Ensure that they share their feelings
– During the face-to-face education process, it was important for children to attend school, for their social and emotional development. Staying away from the peer group during this process can lead to various emotional problems.
3 – Give confidence with your speeches and behaviors
The fact that the time spent at home has increased with the holiday in the online education process and this process will continue without face-to-face education may cause children to think that the holiday is continuing.
4 – Establish a working order
As in the face-to-face education process, it is necessary to help children who cannot organize at the point of studying, have difficulty and need support at this point by creating a work order and plan. Within the plan and order, giving positive feedback and encouraging each behavior that the child can perform will contribute to the acceleration of the adaptation process to the plan.
5 – Pay attention to sleep and diet.
– The child should be sure that these needs are met before the lesson, and it is necessary to encourage them to sit as ready for the lesson as possible during this process. For this reason, if we have children whose sleeping patterns and eating patterns and hours are different, it will be useful to determine certain time periods to sleep and have breakfast ”.
6 – Pay attention to these in the work environment!
– In order to prevent distraction of the child during the online education process, the working place should be determined just like in the school environment, there should be a desk, there should be no distractions on the table, wall, etc. required.
