85: Where We Pare Down: Curriculum, Co-ops & Clubs

So, like, what even is deschooling?! The fact is this: We are immersed in a schooled mindset. It's the air we breathe, the water we swim in. Deschooling is a way to reprogram our thinking about learning.  We're going to talk through this essential homeschooling tool: What is it? Why bother? What does it actually look like? And what comes next?   Highlights from this episode:  Learning is natural and happening all the time. Deschooling doesn't mean it's a free for all.  Deschooling lets us concentrate on connection.  Deschooling teaches us that deep thinking is deep thinking--it doesn't matter if it's about math or Minecraft. Don't use your status as an adult as a weapon. As parents, we are continually deschooling ourselves.

126: Where We Begin with Deschooling

Most of us want a homeschool experience that's more than just school at home. But it can be overwhelming, even scary, to change our entire mindset about learning and schooling. So we're talking about what it means, why it's important, and how empowering it can be to think differently about homeschool. Plus, we share what we DO do in a typical homeschool day with our own kids, ages 8-14. Listen in and get ready to think differently about homeschool!

107: Where We Think Differently About Homeschool

It’s February and we decided a little curriculum check-in was in order.  We’ve made some major and minor tweaks since the start of the year and we thought we’d chat about all of that together.  We start off talking about our general philosophy on curriculum and what we mean when we mention it. Then we spill the beans on exactly what we’re using (or not using) for each subject for each of our kids. This episode got a little lengthy but we know it’s a topic that interests many homeschoolers.  Enjoy!
