Schooling the boys

After our move to Lae, PNG, we will be homeschooling our boys!  At the present moment we are researching the different homeschool curriculum and programs that are available, in hopes to find something that we can work with.

 
We are leaning towards the programs offered by Sonlight, as that is what other families in the area are already using, making it easier to share ideas and resources together, to make the homeschooling journey easier!


For now, the boys are getting used to the idea that school will be held at home with Mum as their teacher.

In the meantime, we have started teaching some common Pidgin words to the boys, which they are picking up very fast! Their favourites are:

Pikinini man = BOY

Pikinini meri = GIRL

Liklik = LITTLE, SMALL

Bikpela = BIG

Bagarap = BROKEN

Haus sik = HOSPITAL

Skul = SCHOOL



If you want to join us in our new language adventures, join the course 'TOK PISIN" on the website 'MEMRISE'- it's a great learning tool!
