While students are out of school, we asked Bill Kelly, the Assistant Controller at Accuweather and a CBICC Board Member, what parents could teach their children or encourage them to explore on their own. Here is his list of suggestions for at-home learning:
1. Going over household finances - as age appropriate, including the concept that when you buy something that money has to come from somewhere.
2. Figuring out what a child is passionate about and how to generate a living from that passion.
3. The importance of being able to support oneself, giving you freedom to pursue your dreams.
4. The concept of servant leadership and how it produces positive outcomes for all.
5. The importance of living a healthy lifestyle, including healthy eating, healthy cooking, exercise, and mindfulness.
Together, these concepts can help prepare and enable you to do all the things you dream of doing.
