The world is full of distractions! This is especially true for young learners. Keeping our kids focused on the task at hand is challenging enough, learning materials should not contribute to the problem.
Think of a clean desk compared to one piled high with miscellaneous papers, bills, pictures, lists, and multiple coffee mugs. A clean desk creates space to create and focus. On a messy desk, every item competes for our attention. While such an environment is merely counterproductive for adults, it can be devastating for a child’s learning process.
The Schoolerz™ Essentials Collection tackles this problem by utilizing minimalist design for all practice pages. Our practice books are not filled with the “cute mess” that clutters most worksheets and learning resources designed for younger students.
Handwriting practice, for example, should focus the student on forming clean, properly crafted lines for each letter with reasonable spacing between letters and words. But practice pages littered with artwork, shapes, and artistic borders actually compete with what the student is practicing!
At Schoolerz™, we love the creative approach to learning. We love art and music and desire a world where students are free to express themselves and their talents fully. Learning can be enhanced by attention-grabbing, aesthetically-pleasing workbooks and creative lessons. But when it comes to practice, we think clean and minimalist works best.
Our Schoolerz™ Essentials Collection provides just the “clean desk” you’ve been looking for. Plus, each book has space on the spine to specify the student’s first initial, grade, and year. Check it out and see if it’s right for you.
