When homeschooling your children, it’s important to remember that it doesn’t have to look like traditional schooling. Homeschooling is very flexible. You don’t have to limit yourself to a standard 8am to 3pm schedule or to a traditional curriculum. Hands-on activities, such as science experiments and playing games, work very well. A community of homeschoolers exists to provide advice and resources. There are online lists of teaching strategies, activities for pre-schoolers, and checklists for various subjects. You can make use of textbooks, teacher-produced materials, documentaries, films, and even private teachers. To begin homeschooling, get an overview of topics to cover and talk to our kids about what they’d like to learn. Purchase a curriculum or create your own. Then, dive right in and begin learning.
Key Takeaways:
- With homeschooling comes a lot of flexibility in terms of hours of learning and method of teaching.
- A homeschooling curriculum can include textbooks and other books, documentaries and films, and even private teachers.
- There are resources available for teaching strategies, activity ideas, and curriculum creation.
