We deregistered DS1 (6yr) a month ago and it's been a great success so far however I am aware I am coming up with most of the learning ideas for him. Thanks to my ADHD, I have a great ability to just think of creative ideas to help encourage and support DS' interests on the spot. This has led to some brilliant progress for DS as he now has an enjoyment with learning.
However, I'm heading back to work soon (currently on Mat Leave) and DH will be going part time with his job to take over the Home Ed. But he struggles to come up with ideas. Not only on the spot but also when attempting to pre plan learning tasks. DH just says his mind is always blank and he doesn't know how to actively think of things, he always needs to be told what to do. I understand all our brains work differently but I can't be on yap coming up with ideas when I'm back to work so where could DH find ideas, what resources are there that's useful.
Of course I can help preplan ideas for the week ahead so he has some stuff to go to but DS can often change his mind about his interests etc.
