The trend of living and traveling in RVs has been especially strong since the COVID-19 pandemic. That’s true not only for empty-nesters and retirees but also for parents with young children. They can work remotely but still need to educate their kids. Those who don’t feel comfortable with homeschooling might be interested in an online elementary school in Arizona.
Roadschooling
RV owners sometimes call the educational effort “road schooling.” The children’s experiences on the road are integrated into the learning goals. An online elementary school in Arizona provides the extra structure that many parents believe is important for young kids to learn certain subjects more effectively. Parents with no teaching or tutoring experience also may feel out of their element being the sole educators for their youngsters.
The Basics and Extra Activities
In the earliest grade school years, an online school might focus on the basics: English, math, social studies, and science. In a brick-and-mortar educational environment, young kids also spend time on activities that could be considered nonessential. Examples include music, art, and physical education. Parents can decide whether to provide formal instruction in these activities or allow the children to pursue their own interests.
Self-Paced Education
A self-paced remote elementary education is particularly advantageous for children who find certain topics easy and for those who struggle somewhat with a subject or two. They can take more time for the harder topics and move more swiftly through the ones they find easy. For instance, some youngsters read at a high-grade level early and benefit from more challenging material.
