Today, we listen in as Tina and Jenny discuss their thoughts about educating children in the early elementary years.
Take-Aways:
- There is no need to "start ear1y". Let the child demonstrate readiness instead.
- No one method (or curriculum) is right for everyone. What's right is what works for your kids/family. No need to buy expensive curriculum.
- Focus on the 3Rs at first (reading; 'riting; and 'rithmetic).
- Short lessons (15 min. each w/breaks in between), less than 2 hours a day on academics (to grow & maintain a child's love of learning).
- Other subjects (history, science, health, etc.) can be occasional and less formal.
- Look for learning in everyday living & non-traditional resources (children's literature, movies, games, outings, etc.).
- TRUST God and the process.
- Family dynamics/character/atmosphere is most important.
- Find a "tribe" of like-minded homeschoolers in SOCIAL homeschool groups (not academic co-ops).
