Homeschool Choices
The
homeschool movement has brought about (or restored)
many superior, efficient, and exciting teaching
approaches. Most of you reading this were taught
in a public school using the traditional
textbook method. Blot out all your preconceived
ideas of how you think school should be and your
previous experience of education. Find out how
you and your children like to learn. Real effectiveness
is developed over time by improving a few steps
at a time. All children have different gift and
talents. Read the Parable
About the Animal School to put this into
focus.
Our
goal is not to get through X amount of books.
Our goal is to develop a love of learning in our
children. Teaching is much more than just presenting
the facts! True teaching is causing your child
to learn, motivating them to learn. Since we are
home schooling we are able to find an approach
that motivates us and our children. You don't
get any brownie points for teaching the hardest
way! If something doesn't work, sell it, trade
it, or give it away and find something that does.
