Where to set up to work?

Here are some tips that we advise to set up a space for remote learning:

1. Find the right place for your child to work. Is it alone in his/her room? Atthe kitchen table, closer to you?  Preferably in a quiet place.

2. Avoid sources of distraction (e.g. video games, social media).

3. Arrange his/her workspace to be as comfortable and functional as possible: back supported, feet firmly on the floor and if he/she is in front of a computer for a while make sure he/she has an angle of about 30 degrees in the bend of his elbows.

4. Be sure the space is well lit. It is important that your child works with adequate lighting. Too little light can tire the eyes and reduce their ability to concentrait.

Some ideas include:

• A suitable place to study away from distractions.
• Respect the school schedule.
• It is important to take scheduled breaks away from the screen.

Please see tab "What can i do to make it easier fo rmy child, who is easily distracted at home, to concentrate?"

Please refer to the list of teachers' email addresses you received at the beginning of the year.  If you can no longer located that list please, ask the secretariat.

Maintaining a regular schedule is key for children to maintain their progress in the course and reducce anxiety related to this challgneing time.  Keep up with school so studentts don't fall nehind. Daily planning allows you to "normalize" the situation and to structure everyone's day, to keep as much as possible the usual reference points. 

If you are working from home, talk to your child about how your are accommodating your change of work schedule.  Discuss importants meetings and schedules to encourage collaboration and focus in your child.

Breaks are essential for breathing: respect the breaks in the school schedule that already allow you to change your mind and do not leave your children on screens after school, or only for a limited time.
