Question: What does every weird, unsocialized homeschool family need? Why, t-shirts to announce your weirdness to the world, of course! Have you seen the homeschool shirts at Homeschool Boutique? They're awesome! My two personal favorites are: I think I like them so much because they combine my love of computer/bloggy/Twitter stuff and my love of homeschooling. Want to win one? How about a whole family of shirts? You can and it doesn't have to be one of the two pictured shirts. Tracy, of...

Melissas Homeschool Blog: Tenths, Hundredths and Report Cards

I completed the first semester report cards last night, for both children. I use the report cards to reflect and learn how they are progressing. So what did I learn. For one thing DJ does not understand the decimals, specifically decimals to the right of the decimal point. I just think it hasn't been covered enough yet. I also discovered that DJ rushes through his math and makes silly mistakes on material he knows. I always made him do math first thing each day. I slacked with that this year,...

How Veteran Homeschoolers Alarm New Homeschoolers ...

Curriculum Crazy: There are enough curriculums out there to make any homeschooler's head spin. Choosing from hands on, unit studies, spiral or mastery approach math, and all the different reading programs can be overwhelming for anyone. A new homeschooler needs to be eased into choosing the right curriculum. She should also be told that we have all picked something that doesn't work and not all things work for everyone. Curriculum is not a one size fits all. Experimentation is the only way to...

Jewish Homeschooling

These days we live in a body of people were dogma rules. What do I mean by that? I mean that all sorts of schemes of values, system of beliefs, and anti-religions found in an open way in the universe, anything goes and no one is hiding it! Due to this fact, there is an excess of families that determine themselves with spouses of an alone doctrine.

This doesn’t exclude families who desire to homeschool. Most bodies think that homeschooling families wish to homeschool because of their tireless...

SHEAF Dunedin: Weekend Reading - NZ research on homeschooling

This week we delve into some homegrown research on home education. Research on home ed in NZ is pretty thin on the ground, with most information around having either come from the States, the UK or is largely based on someone's unexamined assumptions. Today's reading is a recent PhD thesis from a student at Massey University. We did a little highlight of the research back in May, with a link to the newspaper article about the author, and now we can bring you the whole thesis itself! Don't be...

Homeschool Timetable

What does a homeschool timetable look like? Does it resemble a strict time slotted regimen or is it more easy and flowing with daily life?
