In just a few weeks
Esther and William will turn 9
And 10 days after that
Bea will be 5
5!!!
We are starting to make some changes in our home
William is moving out of the big bedroom
So that Edie and Bea can share a room
Our playroom is becoming more minimal
As a huge heap of the toys will go upstairs
Into the little girls’ bedroom / playroom
We need more bookshelves in every room
And we need a designated space for our home education activities
We have always until now
Used the dining table as our work space
But it means we have to clear the table for meals
Which is not great if the children are mid project
We have a room we call ‘the classroom’
But it does not really have anything in it
Apart from floor to ceiling books
And a never used interactive whiteboard
David and I have for a while wanted to use this space
As a work space for the children
Where they can each have a desk for writing
A space for their laptops
And all the non fiction books they might need within reach
A place where we can store and organise our educational supplies and stationery
As at the moment I have no idea
Where all our pens, pencils and rulers go!
I have been reading lots of articles online
About how to organise a home school room
And how to organise and decorate your desk
I have been scouring Pinterest for inspiration
And innovation
What did we do before the Internet?
I have found lots of ideas that I like
Spaces that seem to work well for multiple children
And I am excited to start work on creating a space of our own
Do you home educate?
How have you organised your learning space?
What are your home ed essentials?
We would love to know
Watch this space for updates on our home school room too
