Homeschool Teachers' Lounge with Pam Barnhill & Mystie Winckler

Pam and Mystie chat about their homeschool weeks. Mystie has a new (smaller) home for her homeschool and is making a transition to homeschooling in a whole new state! Pam had her best return from a break ever and is enjoying introducing her kids to a book from her own public school years. They also discuss how to add some spice to Morning Time when things go a little blah.

Mystie and Pam chat this week all about how their first weeks’ back-to-school went after the holidays. Neither of them had a normal week, but that’s ok. They go on to chat about making time to read, what is guiding their reading choices this year, and where to find the Scholé Sister’s 5x5 Reading Challenge.Mystie’s new podcast with Sarah Mackenzie: https://www.simplyconvivial.com/2022/sarah-mackenzie-on-perfectionism-finding-time/
