CHECO is a home-education co-op, which takes place roughly fortnightly on a Wednesday afternoon, in Milton Keynes.
Parents take turns to lead a mini educational activity in their chosen area of interest, for roughly half an hour, once or twice a month. Hopefully, the children enjoy taking part in the activities, in the company of lots of friends.
The aim is gentle/fun educational activities with lots of friends and a chance for adults to share/pool knowlege and resources for a few hours.
(and to not get too worried if something doesn’t work out quite as expected)
(Places are limited due to the size of the room/venue, so families must be able to commit to coming to the co-op on a regular basis)
Past activites include:
- Making 3D models of the platonic solids.
- Floating & sinking experiments & making boats
- Making maps & a mini treasure hunt using directions & a compass
- Team games
- Making structures
