Homeschooling resources can help you understand your child
Legal LawHomeschooling is not something you just wake up one day and decide, it is actually a way of life. For me and mine I wouldn’t have it any other way, and I’m proud to be a homeschool mom.
If you are at a decision crossroads and wondering whether or not to homeschool my children, this could be one of the most important decisions you will make for your child’s future. In the past, for some, saying they were a homeschooler was a stigma, however, those days are long gone and homeschooling is simply a decision we make as parents.
HOME COOLING SUCCESS TIP: Make sure you have fun
By homeschooling your child and using the right homeschooling resources, you are not depriving them of a proper education, but rather using a well-written and in-depth curriculum. Unlike in public school, however, you can tailor the curriculum and teaching style to what works best for your child. Homeschooling is now a part of American culture, any stigma attached to it is now a thing of the past.
HOME COOLING SUCCESS TIP: Limit interruptions
FACT: Home-schooled students scored significantly higher academically than their public or private school counterparts. This is not said to cast negativity against other forms of education, simply to point out that homeschooling can provide your child with everything he or she needs.
As of this writing, homeschooling is legal in all states, and state law requires homeschooling parents to submit certain information to state or educational agencies. The reason homeschoolers (in general) score higher than their public or private school counterparts is threefold:
1. They can study and learn at their own pace.
2. They can receive individualized attention when necessary.
3. The teaching style can be adapted to the personality and strengths of each child/student.
HOME COOLING SUCCESS TIP: Set aside a certain amount of time and then stick to that schedule for best results.
While I support homeschooling 100% for my family, it is not for everyone and you are up to your own decision. As you contemplate this decision, consider the commitment you will have to make. It is time well spent, but time, you must make the decision to invest. Of course, there are a variety of homeschooling resources and different curricula, so be sure to research what is available and best for your situation.
Many parents when considering homeschooling are overwhelmed with what it entails. However, the old expression that “The longest journey begins with the first step” is certainly true with homeschooling. The best advice I can offer (besides making the decision to homeschool), is to talk to another parent who is currently homeschooling his children.
By doing this, you have the opportunity to speak with someone who has faced the same homeschool resource challenges that you are considering. Remember to respect their time, doubly so if you are currently homeschooling your children. Maybe you can buy or cook them dinner, then ask them some questions that concern them, they may have faced and answered these same concerns about homeschooling resources.
HOME COOLING SUCCESS TIP – Keep it simple.
HOME REFRIGERATION SUCCESS TIP: Have faith in your abilities to teach and in your children to learn.
The greatest gift we can give the world is our children, they truly are the future. As a parent, of course, firstly, love your children, but secondly, seriously consider homeschooling. It is simply the gift of his time and knowledge, but also his belief in the future of humanity.
