Home classroom essentials

While every classroom might not have them, every classroom should.
 
The opportunity to become sole educational influence on Ottawacker Jr. has coincided with serious demands on both of his parents’ time (from work, not anything important). Nevertheless, the boy is looking after himself quite nicely.
 
In addition to recalibrating the television so only he can record programmes – if I see “Ollie and Moon” and “Paw Patrol” crop up on the screen one more time, I will scream – he is also doing an on-line course through his school and learning about maths and capitalism through Monopoly.
 
And his personal support cat is there to help him through the tough times, like the ‘how to eat a tuna sandwich properly’ class.
 
Monopoly and a cat – all you need to teach in 2020.
