Listen Later

Are you one of the thousands of families just beginning homeschooling – or thinking seriously about it this year? Surveys say that over one and a quarter million students aren’t returning to public schools, and the number of homeschooling families doubled between April and October last year. This episode, we continue our conversation about our own decision to homeschool – this time, thinking about unexpected lessons we learned along the way, and things you may want to consider making your own decision!

1:25 – “Homeschooling is bigger in the inside”


2:15 – A different model than the modern classroom

3:50 – The efficiency of homeschooling – even with several grade levels

5:38 – Why “difficult” and “unpleasant” isn’t “better”

7:50 – What about finding the perfect curriculum

9:43 – Why “the way it’s done” in classrooms isn’t helpful for homeschooling

10:55 – But can homeschooled kids make it to college?

13:20 – Watching friends who homeschooled and others in public school

14:35 – How long should you expect each day?

15:56 – The reason you begin homeschooling may not be the reason you continue homeschooling

16:30 – Homeschooling and family relationships

18:00 – Some free resources

 

SCRIPTURE
