I was asked to be on a panel for the homeschool conference this year which was in May, which was absolutely positively amazing. We were asked to provide a video so people could see a glimpse into our lives doing homeschool, and realize, this is what a good day may look like. Our curriculum isn’t all the same now as in the video, we don’t do our math out of workbooks anymore, we use all the manipulatives on the shelf you see in the video, which is Montessori.
I love my kids being with me, this is a glimpse of us…and let me add, we were filming what we do during the day. We have arguments, the girls don’t always get along, mom gets grumpy and impatient, so just remember, this is a glimpse of what a “perfect” day may be, even though we don’t ever have a “perfect” day!
I didn’t see a video to access, but I love the idea of a montessori approach to homeschooling. I keep meaning to call you, but end up remembering too late in the evening. I have lots of questions about Madison – and Nadia (so cute!) – and homeschooling and life in general. Email me? kljohnson7868 @ gmail.com (without the spaces). You have an absolutely lovely family!!! (And the red hair looks very cute!)
