How long we intend for home schools, and why we share more about why we are doing after a month of the remaining school year.
Hello friends!
I hope you are sending an amazing week. And too many people have joined our spring forward wellness challenge. Join here -it will be completely free and will be a lot of fun. If we are looking for an explosion of motivation when we head to spring, this is the perfect way!
For today’s posts, I wanted to share a little more about our home school trip and what’s happening. I have had a hard time for the last few months and it was difficult to explore how to share and share. I was always open with you about my life, but The purpose of the blog was to always share my experience. Not my children. Especially when it’s a big part of my life, it’s a tricky line to walk. Many people seem to be part of our family. Similarly, I have always tried my content, especially when I get older, because I don’t want them to feel as if their privacy was invaded by what I shared here.
The simple version is this. We moved LIV to another private school in January. We were all struggling with the amount of homework, test and tasks. It was particularly difficult for her competitive dance schedule. We changed the studio and cut her time in half, and she tried to finish everything for school at least every night. I am a big believer in my efforts and I think the academic rigor is there, but it was too many for everyone. So she switched and flourished.
When she changed school, it was the first time that P had no big SIS at school. The pilot also retired, which was a big transition, and she began to abdominal more often. (Her belly bothered her for several years Her severe reflux as a baby And in a terrible reason, she was in Prilosec and Zantac.) She saw several doctors and saw ultrasound, her belly was considered « healthy, » and their only proposal was to put her back in the PPI. She was also doing CBT every week and sometimes spent twice a week. Her abdominal pain and anxiety was so bad that she missed school for several days. And we tried to catch up with crazy homework, classes and exams.
The pilot was a home of retirement and taught her content, checked her to complete a huge tutorial packet and took it to school for the test. He returned to commercial airline training and could not try to follow all the school work she missed while working, so she asked her to return to school and pull her.
I didn’t try to be a teacher, but I will do anything for my baby. And if it is necessary now, I will do it.
(We love mathematics nicole! Britanni’s amazing list.))
It is also worth mentioning that I decided to do it here. Food sentiment test (And other functional laboratory) and some of the problems of some chapters and the gluten sensitivity were serious. It is not surprising that her stomach hurts:/ Her abdominal pain has been greatly reduced since she started the protocol and removed gluten.
Now our plan:
-She is on the list of LIV’s new school waiting, but you can’t enter the fifth grade in reality.
-When we do home schooling until then and decide to go back, it is great. And if she doesn’t want it, it’s okay.
The interesting thing is that I was really careful about home schooling. Precid thought, « How can my parents expect their children to teach their children more effectively than teachers? »
During the girl’s time at school, we had all the special teachers who should be a teacher. They love and teach children, and are more than that. But at the same time, some teachers… Not good. They speak of bizarre things in class, ashamed of their children in front of their colleagues, and they always occur in a private school environment when they pay to teach children by instructors who do not like children at all. During most of the time, we spent 3 to 4 hours of block every night. Anyway, I didn’t teach content during class.
As I grew up, I also thought it would have been awkward because the children who were home school had not had many social interactions. The reality is that all the home schooling children I have met are friendly, clear, friendly, and incredibly smart.
Even though I saw my friend home school and I saw a fantasy about how fun it was, I worked at home, juggling customer calls, content creation, podcast interview, zoom, zoom, zoom, zoom, zoom, zoom, zoom. IHP work, etc. I didn’t think I could add something else on the plate, but I didn’t even think about it twice when we arrived at this point. I mixed a lot of schedules for most content productions for the weekend, and the beauty of home school is only about 2 hours a day at this age.
Since this post is already very long, we will share other posts that we use the curriculum we use and how our times make up.
Your kindness and amazing over the last few months. It was a hard year in many ways (this is just one of them). Every day with you is the main bright place. We have completed the first week of home school and I feel very excited and hopeful about it! Also, thank you that we are spending extra time together and investigating the wonderful home school activities provided by TUCSON!
XOXO
