Conquering Core Subjects in Lockdown
Whether your teen is in the throes of lockdown learning or spending some time in school, there’s no doubt that there’ll be particular focus on the core subjects. English, maths and science are at the heart of the national curriculum: they’re the subjects at the centre of education. Here at My Digital Lesson we provide high-quality courses in these, as we know how important they are.
Students who do well at core subjects not only find it easier to access their other school subjects, but employers will look to these grades, too.
Whilst your teenager may thrive in more creative arenas such as graphics or textiles, transferrable skills from maths and science are applicable- knowing what type of materials to use; understanding how to cut and measure accurately- for example.
Core subjects are equally integral to everyday life. Whether it’s quickly being able to estimate how much the shopping’s going to cost, or being able to fill in forms and write an effective CV letter, there’ll be countless times where your teenager faces aspects of these subjects in their daily adult life. Therefore, conquering core subjects- even when in lockdown- remains crucial.
We have pre-recorded full SQA courses, and we deliver these lessons in consumable chunks to increase retention covering every key area of the course. We teach English, Maths, Chemistry, Biology, Human Biology, and Physics(we also include Business.)
English
To conquer English, your child needs to be able to communicate clearly, comprehend information, and interpret what’s around them. English is often about inference: the ability to collate meaning from what they see, hear and read. In everyday life, your teenager needs to make meaning out of the texts and spoken language which surrounds them. Our National 5 English RUAE course will provide your teen with the opportunity to develop the skills needed to understand, analyze and evaluate a wide range of detailed texts. We are delighted to offer access to this full course at My Digital Lesson.
Maths
Your teenager might not go on to calculate pi in later life, but a variety of maths skills are used on a daily basis. Whether it is problem solving, crunching data or paying close attention to logic or detail, these skills are used everyday in the form of finances, driving, judging distances or even cooking!
Sciences
Science helps us understand the world we inhabit. All we know about the universe, from reproduction to atomic matter, is the result of scientific research and development. Throughout history, science has progressed the human experience, and thus it is a core subject for your teenager. The sciences help us to develop inquiry and investigation, encouraging young people to become scientifically literate citizens.
Come and see what we have to offer! We can’t wait to help you and your teenager on their educational journey- especially where we are online learning specialists! It is so important to find ways to conquer these core subjects now: they will really lay the foundations for your teenager’s next endeavours in life.
