Question and Answer : Home school with Toddlers and Home school to College

Q: How do you keep your toddlers occupied while teaching older children?

A: I think we should have a lot of patience on this situation. First, I hand out some home works to the older that they can finish it by themselves as practices for them, such as

Then if the toddlers can not sit for more than 5 to 10 minutes. Sometime they want to do the same things as what the older do. If in that case, you can try start giving him some easy lessons to do for the toddlers, such as Alphabet Printable Activities and other worksheets or other toddlers activities art and craft.


When the toddlers are sleeping or quiet playing with their toys or someone can help you to accompany the toddlers, then you can teach the older more deep.
My husband is my special help on this situation.
I hope you can find someone can help you, too.



Q: HOW did you teach your kids high school so quickly, with what books?

A: We only have used books that we got it free from book bank. You can use any book as long as the kids understand and learn.




Q: WHAT can I do to prepare my children to apply for community college this coming fall?

A: You need to prepare them that they are ready for college academically and their maturity that they are ready for college life.



Q: Did they take SAT s? What entrance exams should they study for?

A: It depends to how the university or college admission requirements. You have to ask to the admission office of that university or college. Some of the community college doesn't need SAT test score, they only want your kids to have their placement tests. Most of the university ask SAT or ACT score.



Q: What areas do I need them to master? As they only master what they like--and I've been fine with this until now...especially because all their strengths are in Math & Science.


A: I think the kids need to master in Math, Language Arts (Reading and Writing), and some others subjects, such as Science, Social Study, 1-2 Foreign Language if they want to take that in that major.



Q: What about their Spelling & Writing skills? Your advise, tips?

A: Spelling & Writing skill for high school is good for kids to prepare ready for college. The tip is a lot of practices.



Q: What about Qur'an? How many hours a day? Just listen and memorize? Or write, translate, and comprehend?

A: Qur'an is part of our life. At least 15-30 minutes, we have to read, memorize, and learn about it. Most of time the kids love to do read, memorize, and learn the meaning of Al Qur'an and. Once a week, we read hadiths together.



Q: Do you teach your language as a subject too? Because we do Arabic grammar, writing, typing, etc. as a separate subject.

A: Yes, I teach my language to my kids. I don't put it as foreign language, but I put it in one of a cultural learning in Social Study subject. My kids learn Arabic, Spanish, and Japanese as their foreign languages.



Insha Allah, I will put some more answers for other questions, soon.

Happy Homeschooling to all of you.
