Listen to “CHM014:Choosing a Homeschool Philosophy” on Spreaker.
This homeschool podcast is all about choosing your educational philosophy. I share my story about how our family came to the decision to homeschool and our journey toward selecting a homeschool philosophy. I end with some tips on determining which methods to use in your homeschool. To recap:
- Familiarize yourself with different models. Figure out what each method represents and offers, the main ideas and highlights of each
- Determine which method fits your lifestyle in the season of life your in now (as opposed to previously or in the future). Your methods may change as your children mature.
- For younger children, remember that the three r’s and their spiritual awareness are foundational.
- For older kids, remember to get the help you need by outsourcing or finding other resources that can help to meet your needs.
I hope this has helped you!
