Teacher training for parents. Number 1. What is learning and what is teaching?

What exactly are we trying to do when we are schooling at home? What is learning and how can we help it to happen?

Learning is about making memories that are stored in long term memory. We make the best memories through using many senses, through connecting to real world, tangible experiences and by thinking about the language that we and our learners use to describe what is important. We will introduce some keywords, like objectives and outcomes, and justify why baking cakes and drawing rainbows are meaningful learning experiences.
