《Ting與小小孩一起封城之🇬🇧英國全攻略網站連結大公開! 》#歡迎分享
好不容易週五了!各位家有小小孩的爸媽你都還好嗎?你是不是也偷偷在算,跟孩子已經相處幾小時了呢?讓Ting資深學姊來安慰你,你們有我當墊背不用怕。我們最高紀錄是「連續」整整130天,天天24小時一家四口相處在家裡。然後Ting整整120天沒有外食也沒有點外賣!
.
不過海外同溫層朋友自嘲說「我們這些倒數幾名的歐美國家,憑什麼給台灣資優生建議?!」乍聽好像也是喔?不過,住在重症區座標英國的資深學姊,還是可以提供給大家一些我的經驗。
.
首先要先謝謝 德州媽媽沒有崩潰 率先無私分享她在美國的網站資訊,想了想我能回饋台灣什麼?乾脆一起響應把我「在英國」所有我當初有用到的 home schooling網站連結,通通大公開給你們,我很認真的整理了一晚,因為有些網站過了封城時效性就移除了,有點可惜。有些網站可能因為地區限制會點不開,還需要大家回報給我。或是利用「關鍵字」搜尋一下。歡迎努力轉發給有需要的朋友!
.
全都是適合3-8歲的孩子,內容包羅萬象,有運動、瑜伽、動物園直播秀、英文、數學、免費學習單、美勞、兒歌、園藝、甚至還有學做菜!也歡迎大家補充分享在留言處。希望可以幫助到你們大家!

結合故事主題的兒童瑜伽,我家兒子女兒都很愛,常常欲罷不能連做2小時。
◀ PE with Joe
https://www.youtube.com/c/TheBodyCoachTV/playlists
當初是全民早上9點準時跟著他live運動的,他有時候還會變裝娛樂孩子。
◀ Edinburghzoo 愛丁堡動物園直播動物
https://www.edinburghzoo.org.uk/webcams/panda-cam/#pandacam
這個網站真的超適合娛樂小小孩,因為封城緣故促使愛丁堡動物園設立這個page,裡面可以24小時直播收看熊貓、企鵝、老虎、無尾熊跟獅子。超酷的吧!
◀ Twinkle 教育資料庫網站(加入會員可無限下載)
https://www.twinkl.co.uk/
這個英國叫 Twinkle 網站在英國非常火紅,第一次封城時他們還釋出優惠代碼,讓大家免費使用。會推薦他是因為學校老師,常常在這裡下載學習單給孩子。我最喜歡的地方是他能「按照年紀」甚至「節慶」「主題」延伸各種科目針對一個主題,有學習單、著色本、遊戲、美勞、食譜、科學、甚至新聞。真的只要有一台印表機,完全不怕小孩無聊,也不用買一堆作業練習本或是美勞紙,是我的救星。
◀ Education.com 免費學習單下載
如果你不想要加入上面推薦的Twinkle網站會員,這裡也是有超級多免費的worksheet供你免費下載。你可以點選左邊那排by Grade按照適合年紀選擇學習單。

◀ Cooking with Jamie Oliver
https://www.jamieoliver.com/videos/
大家應該對傑米奧利弗不陌生,因為他自己也有小孩,所以封城期間他無私錄製了不少跟他孩子一起烹飪的小短片,還可以訓練一下小孩英式英文的聽力。
◀RHS 英國皇室花園協會
https://reurl.cc/bzMQ2v
提供超多給孩子的園藝activities活動點子!比如說把牛奶罐變成灑水器、散步發現收集彩虹、利用蛋盒製作感官活動sensory nature game...等。我個人非常喜歡他們提供很多很有趣,讓孩子自然而然學習自然與科學接觸接的小活動。
◀ OxfordOWL
https://home.oxfordowl.co.uk/
牛津Oxford大家應該不陌生,這個網站是專門英國學校會使用的「教材」OWL是專門針對3-11歲英國小學年紀的各種訓練,尤其他們家的Phonic學習跟增加閱讀能力資源很多,因為疫情有好多免費的library可以使用。
英國孩子學習phonic不是像台灣ㄅㄆㄇ一口氣學完,而是循序漸進,所以他們閱讀能力的分級是用「顏色colour band」來分級。
有興趣的家長也可以利用這個免費的ebook Library測驗一下自己孩子的英文程度在英國大概在哪裡。
https://reurl.cc/NX3vaq
◀OxfordOWL在youtube也有自己頻道有超多超多資源,假設你有興趣知道英國小學生學什麼,或是想學真正標準的英式英文,也可以多加利用。

◀ All Things Oi! 英國最夯的韻母英文童書
https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLLlRtGQGEzUOcXyQjfs_EhvuwcJpQDkiK
相信只要你住在英國家有小小孩,對於整個系列的「Oi !____」 絕對不陌生!因為疫情的關係,竟然作者自己開頻道唸給你聽之外,還教你怎麼畫裡面的角色!我家兩隻畫Oi Frog裡面的青蛙畫到樂不思蜀!

◀
CBeebies Alphablock
https://www.bbc.co.uk/cbeebies/shows/alphablocks
說到英國小孩學alphablock絕對沒有人不知道這個學習卡通,裡面每一角色都有自己專屬的發音特色,然後按照簡單到難的程度,學習組合方式跟tricky words。連我自己都很愛跟孩子一起唱,看著字母邊唱歌邊搞笑,就真的學起來了。超級超級希望,有一天ㄅㄆㄇㄈ也有人發明這樣一整套的卡通和學習單。
網站裡也有一些小遊戲!如果你是住在英國地區,推薦下載bbc iplayer,電視機也能使用。就可以收看完整Alphablocks的節目。
◀CBeebies Numberblocks
https://www.bbc.co.uk/cbeebies/shows/numberblocks
說到Alphablock就絕對會聯想到numberblocks! 字義上就不難理解了,上一個是學英文!這一個是學數學。而且跟著孩子看這個節目,我才更理解英國人算數學的很多邏輯,真的跟我們台灣小時後學的方式差好多。我家兩個孩子都好愛看這個節目!
◀
Letter and sounds
https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCP_FbjYUP_UtldV2K_-niWw/videos
這個是英國教育部在封城期間,統一錄製給學校當資源使用學phonic的真人版!而且是按照英國教育部標準進度教,那時候是我兒子學校規定每天一定要看的節目,都是固定早上9點開始按照不同年級上傳。但說真的,我覺得超級無聊XD 但是老師們就是真的正統英文本人,你可以看他的嘴行發音。
◀ NRICH 劍橋數學挑戰
https://nrich.maths.org/
這個網站是由英國劍橋大學的數學系跟教育系提供內容。從0-5歲一直到16+都有不同程度。網站是真的做得很醜,排版也不好用。但是內容很多都需要孩子花時間去思考邏輯。建議家長可以陪著一起做!
◀
BBC Teach (我不確定台灣能不能點開這個網頁)
https://www.bbc.co.uk/teach/primary/zd7p47h
BBC在疫情期間也是卯足全力support家長,這個網站結合了各式各樣的學習資源,有時候真的不得已要給小孩3C我就開這個網頁,讓哥哥自己隨便瀏覽他有興趣的內容,裡面都是一些有教育意義的小短片,科目包羅萬象。我女兒的話就是熱衷這個英文兒歌童謠a-z頻道:
https://www.bbc.co.uk/teach/school-radio/nursery-rhymes-a-to-z-index/z4ddgwx
◀ The Singing Walrus - English Songs For Kids
https://www.youtube.com/c/Thesingingwalrus/featured
這個英文兒歌頻道我也很推薦,因為他畫的動畫不會太俗氣,然後也會搭配上歌詞在影片中。我家妹妹也滿喜歡的,尤其有些歌老實說我自己沒學過,歌搭配上文字像KTV一樣。
◀ SingingHandsUK 手語兒歌頻道
https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCSgfqkristwvJft3BNN-NYQ
這個頻道是妹妹幼兒園老師提供,在英國小嬰兒還不會說話前,非常流行學寶寶手語,這個頻道非常無私的教了很多簡單手語配合的兒歌,家有小小孩的爸媽不妨也可試試看。
◀BBC bitesize
https://www.bbc.co.uk/bitesize
這個同樣也是疫情下的了BBC產物,跟上面的teach有異曲同工之妙,但是當初這個bitesize封城時會有每天的課表,讓學校沒有遠距課程設備的人使用。我個人是覺得比較多是適合小一以上的程度跟大孩子。上面那個Teach就有到更小幼兒園年紀適合的內容選擇。
◀BookTrust 英國閱讀機構
https://www.booktrust.org.uk/
這是英國最大致力於閱讀的慈善機構,從孩子很小在醫院做過健康檢查,或是在圖書館一歲生日時,就可以領到BookTrust贈送的書。隨著年紀孩子們也都會有一些他們送的書,或是折價卷去買書。疫情期間他們的youtube頻道是有超多英國作者或是老師們,自發性的錄閱讀童書給孩子們聽。
https://www.youtube.com/c/booktrust/videos
◀Brightly Storytime
https://www.readbrightly.com/
這個是美國的書籍推薦購物網站,但其實裡面非常多資源!幫助你幫孩子挑書。
https://www.youtube.com/c/BrightlyStorytime/featured
然後最棒的是他還有搭配自己的youtube頻道,念超多童書給孩子聽。最特別的是,他每一本書念的時候會配合圖片,而且會「跟著唸的聲音速度,跑書裡的字」(代替用手指頭邊指邊念)。還有邀請到「作者本人」念他自己的書給孩子聽。
我當初第一個找到這個網站是因為要找「好餓的毛毛蟲作者Eric Carle相關資料」才發現這麽網站,你們可以點這個網址去下載他的作品activities worksheets。
https://reurl.cc/1gD64Y
◀ The StoryTime Family
https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCvdUKabPUkx6p-zYlrxmJJw/featured
這個也是像上面Brightly storytime頻道,但是是澳洲的版主,所以英文腔調有點不一樣,也超多故事可以聽,鍛鍊一下英文。
◀Place2Be 關心孩子心理健康網站
https://www.place2be.org.uk/
這個英國網站很貼心,給了很多如果關心孩子心理健康的素材。小至如何發現孩子需要mental health support,也有各種專家分享幫助孩子的方式。做特別也有art room的一些活動,幫助孩子透過藝術穩定情緒。 https://reurl.cc/0DLApl

family worksheets 在 Elaine73 Facebook 的最佳解答
I'm a private tutor. I run a small tuition centre. After deducting rent, marketing & administrative costs - I take home around $2500 a month. I teach more than 10 classes weekly.
It has been a very demoralising few weeks.
1. Amidst the suspension of centre-based tuition classes - parents have asked for discount on fees. I tried to help whenever I can by waiving off fees or giving discounts, knowing fully that it will be at my own expense.
Yet, I've received a lot of comments from parents who do not have financial difficulties, going "e-learning should be cheaper".
e-Learning IS not cheaper than classroom based learning. It has been 2 sleepless weeks with this mad scramble to move classes online. We've had to to spend sessions doing orientation for you and your children to help explain how to do classes online. We had to buy IT equipment, video recording equipment - all of it not cheap with my measly $2500 monthly salary.
You think it's less effort - it's not. It's more effort and more work. And you want to pay us less.
Please don't undermine our efforts by requesting to pay us less. If you have financial difficulties, we will discount for you. But don't say "e-Learning should be paid less". Thanks.
Rental still goes on - landlords who don't take the initiative to help and pass on rental rebates, I'm looking at YOU!
2. We totally understand that why we have been closed down. Health comes first - sure.
However, can don't call us non-essential?
School is essential, tuition is non-essential. Minister said that. True facts of life.
But, but. Can you also see this.
In every sector, there are good people and there are bad people.
In the tuition sector, there are some of us good ones and some of us bad ones.
I dare say, I care about each and every-one of my students. I do my best to motivate. I do my best to talk to them when they have family troubles. I come up with extra worksheets when I know they are lagging behind.
In schools, you also have teachers who are not motivated, who only come to school for the paycheck and do the minimum.
If all school teachers are good - need tuition teachers for what?
If everybody scoring A1, A2 and A* - then no need for tuition. Some parents find tuition because their kids have been failing.
We don't need you to recognise us. But don't call us non-essential can?
3. Common comment from school teachers and from the public - "They should pay school teachers more" or "Tuition teachers make so much money".
You know how many times I roll my eyes at this?
Straits Times - I'm looking at you. Thanks for always reporting on "million dollar" tutors. Now everybody thinks that all tutors make millions.
Reality check - If you are a school teacher and you think you will make a lot of money leaving the public sector, feel free to go try your luck.
Is every school teacher a Principal? or a Cluster Superintendent? or a Director? No right?
Same thing with the private sector ok? The top tutors make a lot of money. The normal tutors like us make close to the 'median' $4600 of the typical Singaporean.
We don't have CPF.
We don't have AWS.
We don't have performance bonus.
In November & December, we eat bread but still pay rent.
Whatever we earn in 10 months, must ration across 12 months, because November & December parents go holiday and don't want tuition.
No - regular tutors don't make millions.
Stop dreaming. Most school teachers are not zai. If they leave the public sector, they will eat grass.
I make $2500 a month - if you feel that is fantastic, you can be my guest. You have a choice. If you think you can make more as a private tutor, take the plunge into the world of the unknown.
4. Teachers got a lot of admin work, not like private tutor only need to teach
We don't have admin work. We have "admin work" - marketing, accounting & trying to keep the business alive. We don't only teach.
You have a 'clear thick' line between yourself and parents. We don't. We are obligated to answer, and talk to parents everyday. Do you know there are parents who call us and talk to us everyday about their kids and their anxieties? (a lot of parents from top schools are actually very anxious about their kids) I spend 1 to 2 hours daily talking to 2 to 3 parents everyday.
5. Thank you for classifying us together with KTVs, Bars & Entertainment
I called the bank to lower my credit card interest because in anticipation of school closures, I invested heavily in video recording equipment and IT equipment that I actually cannot pay for with my measly salary.
Guess what the bank said? You are not from an eligible 'adversely affected' sector.
Adversely affected = tourism, aviation, F&B and entertainment.
Entertainment qualifies but private education doesn't qualify.
Again, i understand why we have been shut down. But can everyone remember us private tutors have families to feed too? Mortgages or rent to pay? Bills to pay?
6. We are human beings too
We have feelings. We have empathy. We have tried to help whenever we can. My tuition centre offers free tuition all these years to whomever are on MOE Financial Assistance scheme. When parents face difficulties (retrenched, fell sick), we always cut our fees or give free. When students ask for extra help, we coach and we don't charge extra.
We are trying our best too. Really. We are all in this together.
I don't know since when being a 'private tutor' is a nasty thing.
Maybe tuition centres like Learning Lab, Mavis Tutorial or any of those big tuition centres with big MRT and bus adverts and sprawling land space of more than 10000 square feet might make millions of dollars a year. Maybe they have strong investors with hundreds of millions. But hey that's not us. Don't assume that we have a mountain of profits to stomach this because we don't.
Also, a lot of our kids and a lot of our parents always tell us that school teachers always say bad things about private tutors. "Tuition is a waste of money", "don't need go for tuition", "private tutors are not qualified and don't know what they are teaching".
Some teachers seem to spend a lot of time bad-mouthing private tutors.
Just focus on teaching your kids please. You still have a job.
I may not have one when the dust settles.
Also, remember that a lot of us private tutors were once school teachers.
Some of us left because of school mergers.
Some of us left because we were pregnant, had kids and could no longer cope.
Some of us left because we don't want to deal with this crap called EPMS.
Some of us left because we don't want to deal with all the politics, committees, organising overseas trips and want to just focus on the kids.
Please support your tutors, thank you. A lot of us, really do care, genuinely for your child.
