Questioning my motives

Postby efxmel » Sat Oct 24, 2009 8:00 am

Relationships are all there is. Everything in the universe only exist b/c it is in relationship to everything else. Nothing exist in isolation. We have to stop pretending we are individuals that can go it alone. - Margaret Wheatley

Many parents set out to home school on a trial basis. You can do this for one year and see how it goes. If it does not work out then put him back into school. Mostly remember that whatever you do for your child it will work out if you take the time to help them with their education.

Bugzz makes some very good points in her post.

I am a private and home school tutor, and am often given the children that others have given up on. Nine times out of ten I find these kids are simply hands on learners. studies show these are 50% of the population. So her suggestion about activity is very important. I use hands on learning tools for these children, and stay away from flash cards and workbooks as much as possible.
