Usually is 2 times, one is at the beginning and one is before go home. This is what we do. We ask the kids to sit in circle and then if we have bell we will ring a bell or if not we will just knock on the floor. And then the facilitator will make a silent sign and everyone is sitting in silent. Few seconds later, we knock on the floor or ring the bell again. Sometimes some kids got excited and want to have their own turn to lead the silent moment! They even suggest their friend to take turn after their chance!
Sometimes we also incorporate it into the Hookey Pookey song. Yes, kids can sit in quite. :)

My sister too, being the middle child, strove hard to find herself. She was comparatively slow in learning in academically way back in her primary but the moment she picked up language as her passion she flew up high in many areas…holding many top position while in secondary. After venturing herself in overseas for a period, she decided to quit everything and stay put in temples….and is currently waiting for her right time to turn to a ‘meichi’. Not every parent can comprehend to that but my parents, who had come a long way to understand the Dharma, would like to happily and gracefully to be in this path together. It may appear to be a source of headache to many parents, but like what you said, finding the ‘light’ element, the passion, isn’t that easy for most people. And if we click on that, better not let go of it. :) I am so happy for Sam! May she shines forever! Keep it up! :)

We are Malaysians and Would like to start homeschooling for my son who is currently doing Year8 in an international school.

I would like to find out on how to go about choosing the curriculum, work modules and monitoring to exams required to be taken.

I am in Penang and unfortunately have reached a dead end as I have not got any contact person or place to seek guidance. I am therefore seeking the help of homeschoolers in KL for guidance.

Please help and thanks

Mrs Tinesh

1. think
2. think out-of-the-box
3. realize there is not box in the first place!
