Hey, everybody!
I just got back from a little trip out of town with the boys. We visited my good friend, Beth, and her family and had a super time! It's good to be home though. I am really excited and energized to start writing and sharing a lot in this place. However, I have a van full of vacation "stuff" to unpack, laundry to do, etc. So, tonight I just wanted to share a blog I've been reading for a while that I just love. It's called "Skipping School" or "Unschooled" and is written by a young woman named Kate who lives in Manhattan, is a gifted writer and blogs about being homeschooled all the way through from early childhood to high school. I really love Kate's writing and find it fascinating to read about homeschooling from her perspective. Please head over and check it out. If we bombard her site with Montessori Journey traffic it would be fun to leave her a bunch of kind comments. I know there are a lot of homeschooling mamas who read my MJ blog and who have now headed over here. Let's all give Kate a big pat on the back for sharing her thoughts on this topic. Now GO SEE KATE!!

Thank you for the suggestion. I think Kate's blog is going to be an interesting read... for myself and for my daughter who homeschools her children.
ReplyDeleteI read a few posts and found her very interesting and entertaining! Thank you!
ReplyDeleteHi Laura! I may be homeschooling after all. I looked at all your curriculum picks. The Learning A-Z looked a little overwhelming to me. I wondered if you have another phonics suggestion, maybe I need more of a workbook type thing? It would be for kindergarten. Thanks for any help!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for this blog recommendation! I find it a very good read. I was homeschooled (4th-10th grades) and can really relate to her posts. Her view is quite refreshing and something unique that you don't see many blogs on. :)
ReplyDeleteI vowed to never homeschool my littles and here I am starting K with my own precious daughter. lol
