Although my kids are still currently in Public school, at last I can fully say, I HAVE DECIDED to take them out of SCHOOL and help them explore into a new whole world of exciting experiences called....SCHOOL AT HOME.
NOW my next step, should I go with UNSCHOOLING them first or, straight into the HOMESCHOOL system? Its another BIG decision for me but by the grace of God, I will know an answer soon :)
I have been plunking myself in front of the laptop searching and reading...reading and searching for infos, ideas, stuffs and more stuffs to see which will eventually suit my kids.
Call me Radical, Hasty or MAd.. Yea.. I'm those and more. I pretty much
the sort of mum who does not live quite well with too much comformity. I
believe very much in allowing my kids to learn through exploring new
ideas, thinkering with stuffs and really discovering themselves.
One thing I know for sure, my sons (who are 14yrs now) are PLAIN GAMING ADDICTS. Now thats going to be a real challenge for me to get them into doing something other than just sit in front of the computer and play games.
Also, I have discovered and am learning more on what HOMESCHOOL or UNSCHOOL means. If you are in the same boat as me, here are some infos for you.
