It could be any thing from the alphabet to cleaning his room to ice skating. Don't bother saying My kid doesnt learn from me" or I can't teach him a thing." It isn't true. Research tells us today that children learn more outside school than in and that the parent is probably the chilu'c most important teacher. As a parent you're automatically a teacher, so you might as well know some of the secrets of the trade.

Child Teaches Self A child who wants to learn almost teaches something himself, so for a truer test of teaching skill, lets start with an unwilling child whos making sounds like: Aw, Mom, I dont want to learn how to make my bed" or Im not going to go sharing. " A lot of may be an automatic "no" reaction to whatever parents say, but it could also spring from the childs fear that he can't learn what is asked of him. What do you do? Patience is fine, but its not enough. Help the child overcome his lack of confidence. A tentative question is too likely to receive a ready no answer. Instead try Lets do . . ., or Were going to . . Its Worth Learning A good teacher conveys the idea that what hes teaching is necessary and worth learning. A parent can say, Some jobs just have to be done and some skills must be learned. Its my job to teach them and yours to learn. Convey the impression that your child can do the job. If he's hesitant, remind him of his accomplish- previous ments: How he swam across the pool even though he was scared, how he caught that fish. feeds oil llself. Success g A child who feels capable will bo moie willing to tty but things. Bo encouraging, Ip specific. Instead of a blc.n Kct statement: You're terrific. " say Youie a terrific Chose carefully what youie going to tench. A child needs activities that are an appropriate match for lus current abilities, neither too hard nor too easy. Professor J. McVieker Hunt of the University of Illinois calls this "The problem of the match" finding stimulating work just a little beyond what the child can already do. Apply this at home: A boy who's learned to tee skate can teach his younger brother; a girl who's learned to make simple dmlies can try Daking bread. Break down a job to be taught into manageable steps. Vclults Ape A don't send a child up "cold' to clean lus loom.

A parent can say, "Watch what 1 do and do it after me" or you cun both plunge into the job together. Once the child has learned how, let him show off to jou. Tins reinforces Ins learning. Pick the tune to teach with care. Unlike sihool w hem math starts the day at 9:10, home teaching is moie tuned to the moods of both teacher and student. Parents have to feel their way: In some homes earlv morning Is the best teaching time; in others, it's after supper.
