Practical ideas for teaching creative kids in a high-tech world!

Every family is different. There is no right way to homeschool. This little book is designed to help you find your own way, to help you understand the needs of your family, to inspire you to get to know your children better, and to learn how to be a good teacher-mom.

There are five keys to learning. Let me tell you all about them! If you understand how the brain works to acquire information, store it, and retrieve it - you will understand homeschooling and how to teach your child well. This book is little,

Here is just one page from this little handbook...

What are the FIVE KEYS to Learning?

Traditional methods of teaching children with desks, textbooks and quizzes revolve around a teacher??s need to control 25 to 30 children all at once. What a difficult task! It is impossible to teach the way children learn in a classroom, but at home it??s easy!

If children can not learn the way we teach we must teach the way they learn!

1.The first key to learning is a spark of curiosity.

2. The second key is a quest for knowledge and information inspired by curiosity.

3. The third key is the emotion of discovery.

4. The fourth key to truly learning and remembering is the spontaneous sharing of one??s discovery.

5. The fifth key to learning is the creation of something new! It takes knowledge, passion, skills and understanding to do this!

This is how all people learn. No flash cards, no grades, no tests, no rewards or punishment is involved in true learning. We easily learn what we desire to know.

The content is unlike anything I have read so far and gives me, a homeschool mom, an empowering feeling. It encourages me to think about the outcome I want and encourages me to take steps towards it. It offers insight on ways to engage the kids, and simple suggestions to get help everyone look forward to their day. It starts by asking My own personal goals before we move forward. I'm finding by reading through it I am excited to read the next page and work on the next task. I feel encouraged where I am at homeschooling with my family realizing that each family is unique and it's helpful to write it down. It seems the perfect size to carry with me where ever I will go so I can jot down future ideas (for field trips, projects... Etc). I feel something like this would be a perfect gift for beginning homeschool moms (or dads). A little, easy to handle, workbook/journal, because it is just enough information to help and affirm, but not so much as to overwhelm. I feel that it would be handy for any homeschool parent. ~ C.
