The Ultimate Guide to Homeschooling Boys

Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Need Help Homeschooling Your Boys? If you have a son, you already realize that he is much different than your daughters... but you may not realize that your son actually sees differently, hears differently, and even THINKS differently. Having a son can be confusing for moms. Homeschooling a son can be even more difficult. Often, girls are content to let you hand them a book or a workbook to teach them. Boys, on the other hand, do not normally learn well in this manner. In fact, most boys will confront you with all out rebellion if you try to conduct their homeschooling in this way. So, how should we homeschool boys? Fortunately, there are some simple answers to this question. Michelle candidly details the ups and downs of homeschooling her own sons. She gives practical advice for how to educate boys while enjoying a closer relationship with them at the same time. Boys do enjoy learning when it is approached in the right way. Grab your coffee and settle in for some laughs, some tears, and a huge helping of inspiration. About the Author: Michelle has been married to her best friend for almost 17 years. She is also a homeschool mom to her two wonderful (and tall) sons. Michelle is a Christian, a fan of simple living and a lover of chocolate. She loves her spicy chai tea in the morning and she has a hard time staying out of the snacks at night. You can find her blogging at www.homeschool-your-boys.com. Her mission is to encourage and inspire parents as they homeschool their boys.

Why I Love Homeschooling
Author: Mary Jo Tate
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781734718409
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 192
Book Description
Because of the COVID-19 pandemic, millions of families worldwide have been thrust into schooling remotely at home. Some parents look forward to sending their kids back to school, but others have found they prefer schooling at home. They've noticed things like, "My child has learned more at home with me in the last 2 months than in the past 2 years at school!" Or, "I kind of like spending so much time with my kids and learning alongside them." Many parents are considering continuing homeschooling beyond the pandemic, and this book is here to help them make an informed decision about their children's education.Homeschooling is not about trying to reproduce a school environment at home. It's not hours and hours sitting at a desk with a parent or in front of an online class. Homeschooling is about creating an environment outside of the school structure that fosters a love of learning, creativity, family closeness, and flexibility. There is no one size that fits all in homeschooling; every family is different, and approaches homeschooling and parenting in their own unique way. In this book, 24 seasoned homeschooling families share their experiences. The authors include both religious and secular homeschooling parents from all walks of life. They represent a variety of homeschooling styles (from self-directed learning/unschooling to more formal approaches), abilities and disabilities, marital statuses, educational achievements, job statuses, races, and socioeconomic levels. The authors have children of all ages, from babies, preschoolers, and kindergarteners, to students in elementary school, middle school, or high school. And some have children who are now adults. They discuss what they love about homeschooling and also the challenges they've overcome. We hope that this book will inspire and encourage those who are considering homeschooling, as well as those who are already on their homeschooling journey. And we hope it will expand your ideas about the concept of education, and what's possible for yourselves and your children.
