Every month or so I have been running into roadblocks with homeschooling. I find myself frequently asking myself "Did the kids learn something today or did we just complete the checklist?" I remind myself that homeschooling was my kids idea and the purpose was to give them a safe environment that encouraged their love of learning.
I have been journaling in hopes that I could identify what worked and what didn't. I have noticed that most of the learning moments that stand out were not doing the planned curriculum, but when the kids were independently pursuing their own interests. So I have decided to investigate what unschooling is. I find it intriguing and confusing at the same time.
