Homeschooling is not only a daily learning process, but a journey. Not only for my son, but for myself as well. This is my homeschool journal. What works, what doesn't, what we have tried, how we have been inspired... you name it. This is our School. Homemade.
This week, we start a new year of school. New things to learn, a few new ways of doing things...new adventures, as well as new accomplishments.
I have found that homeschooling is not only the most challenging thing that I have ever done, but also the most rewarding. Yes, we have our bad days, but they are far outweighed by the good days, and looking back and reflecting on how far we have come since starting this endeavor.... I wouldn't have it any other way.
This journey has been a constant learning process for me. Trying new things, seeing what works, as well as what doesn't work.... there are constant adjustments and changes and I find that we have to roll with the punches in order to make things work. Not always easy, I admit, but it's been an adventure to say the least.
I wanted to start journaling the things we are trying and have tried, curriculum we use and just the day to day craziness that goes on for us. So, here we are.
Here's to a great year.
One of the most wonderful things about homeschooling is that others come along side us in the journey. We are all on our own paths but close enough in heart that we can encourage and understand and laugh and cry together through the good days and the bad days. It's good to know we aren't alone as we walk our individual paths. Have a great first day of school you two! :))
