Quote of the Day Back to Top
What use is it to pile task on task and prolong the days of labour, if at the close the chief object is left unattained? It is not the fault of the teachers -- they work only too hard already. The combined folly of a civilization that has forgotten its own roots is forcing them to shore up the tottering weight of an educational structure that is built upon sand. They are doing for their pupils the work which the pupils themselves ought to do. For the sole true end of education is simply this: to teach men how to learn for themselves; and whatever instruction fails to do this is effort spent in vain.
Dorothy L. Sayers

Choosing A Curriculum
So you've decided to homeschool. That's great, the decision has been made. Now, where do you get the "books"? The homeschool market is flooded with choices of books and materials that all claim to produce excellent results. Making a decision can be difficult and confusing. Will you use a pre-packaged curriculum? Make your own? Use workbooks only? Life experiences? The beauty of homeschooling is that it can be tailored to fit your unique family, concentrating on the needs and interests of each individual child. No one person or group can claim to be doing it the "right" way because "right" for one child may not be "right" for another. As you receive new insights about your children and as your children mature, your choices may change.
Five Steps to Unschooling
Joyce Kurtak Fetteroll
Some people understand unschooling as soon as they hear about it. Others wander about in a fog of confusion, wondering how unschoolers can be so certain about something that seems so counterintuitive to everything we've picked up about how kids need to learn. Maybe a few, well-defined steps in the unschooling direction could lead out of at least the very pea-soupiest part of the fog.
