All About Homeschooling
We are starting our homeschooling journey this year and I am excited to take you on the journey with us! Our family chose to homeschool for a variety of reasons. With the current state of our society and what they are teaching in schools, I just wanted more control over what our children learn. And honestly, I just wanted more time with them. Discover what curriculum we are using, and how I incorporate my knowledge of school-based occupational therapy into our homeschool days.
Homeschool Curriculum Activities and Organization
Follow the journey
Learn, alongside our family, as we work on how to effectively use and organize our new homeschool life with four kids that are 5 and under. We do not have a dedicated homeschool space, nor do we even have a finished kitchen, so we will do our best to make it work.
Occupational Therapy at Home
What to use, even if you don’t have a struggling student
For those of you who don’t know, before I became a stay-at-home mother, I was an occupational therapist who working in the school system. Fine motor skills, such a handwriting and scissor cutting, are a big part of that. Learn activities and resources that are beneficial to build those skills, as well visual and gross motor abilities.
Taking Homeschool Out of the Home
Activities and ideas for homeschooling on the go
One of the biggest perks of homeschooling for our family, is being able to homeschool wherever you are. Whether you are in town, in the woods, or even just in your backyard. Learning can happen anywhere. I love that lesson. Some of the best learning just doesn’t happen at a table.
