KONTAN.CO.ID – JAKARTA. For almost two years, students have been studying online due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The impact of the pandemic requires every educational institution to implement strict health protocols in order to reduce the number and prevent transmission of the virus.
One of the educational platforms in Indonesia, namely Superprof, also pays attention to how this face-to-face learning process takes place in Indonesia. Here are five tips from Superprof for parents who want to prepare well for their child’s return to learning with the face-to-face method at school:
1. Prepare medical equipment for children as long as they are out of reach of parents
Parents should check the implementation and monitoring of health protocols in schools before deciding for their child to do face-to-face learning. Pay attention to equipment and health facilities for children so as not to exchange tools with other students. Don’t forget to prepare stationery and cutlery from home.
2. Simulation of Teaching and Learning at Home
After a long time of distance learning, every parent is advised to check the mental health condition of their child which may be declining due to the lack of social interaction during the pandemic. Parents should remind that as long as health protocols are implemented, there is no need to worry too much about transmitting the virus. This is done so that children are not surprised by the condition of the learning process at school.
3. Good Communication
Parents need to communicate well with children so that during the face-to-face learning process they can continue to apply health protocols in an orderly manner. Always remind that the use of masks and hygiene are mandatory for the health of children and families at home.
4. Pay Attention to Children’s Mental Conditions
Parents are advised to ask their children’s activities and routines during face-to-face learning after school in order to understand their condition and provide moral and mental support. Starting from playing with whom to how they feel doing face-to-face learning at school and meeting friends.
5. Take Care of Children’s Physical Condition
For the sake of the physical health of children who are accustomed to learning from home, parents should prepare their children to rest and sleep early at night so that the next day their children are ready to engage in activities and carry out face-to-face learning routines at school.
