We are a first year homeschooling family. Each week we will share tips, suggestions or concerns we run into in the whole process of home schooling our children. Let's learn together as we share in the journey. We are excited to be in the first year of homeschool- it is a time of learning and exploration.
Questions, suggestions or concerns about our home school? Leave them in the comments.
The first year is exploratory, both for the mom and dad and the kids, especially if you are pulling from traditional school. We expect much the first year. The second year is usually the transitional year where you are growing your philosphy of homeschooling and making curriculum changes. Some have found that by the 3rd year they had a clearer vision of where they were going and how they were going to get there. The first year of homeschooling is going to be a lot of fun and we are looking forward to it.
We're not going to give up during the first year! We're constantly reminding ourselves of why we are doing this. So many give up during or right after the first year not realizing it gets so much better. We are giving Glory to Jesus Christ through this first year of home school.
