Thanks for the freedom. It is strange, but in a way we wait for someone to ‘give us permission’ to break out of the mold. You just did that, so thank you! I used to teach in classrooms and I now feel more confident to homeschool because I realize what an impossible task they are attempting in regular schools. I have tons of respect for those teachers, I just don’t want to try to do it anymore because the expectations are so idealistic *which is great in a way* and high they are unattainable. So many, many kids fall through the cracks. Around my kitchen table there are plenty of squabbles but nobody is going unnoticed. You nailed it with the idea that we can work wonders with 15 to 20 mins of personal attention!

You shared some fabulous insights here Angela. Maybe I’m still “new” to our homeschool journey in that some of the comments do bother/affect me. I love your idea of dropping the “core” work for that day… I totally agree that the thoughts/insecurities can creep into my lessons. I think the hardest is when my children are cornered and asked uncomfortable questions. That’s really hard.

Thanks for sharing!

I really enjoyed this article, as my children are moving into more independent learning style the tips at the end were greatly appreciated. I really like the reminder that staying involved remind the child they have someone on their side, it is always good to know you are not alone. Thank you for sharing!
