Kindergarten learning is an essential foundation for a child's educational journey. It focuses on building basic skills in areas such as literacy, math, social development, and motor skills. Children learn to recognize letters, numbers, and shapes, while also beginning to develop early reading and writing abilities.

If I was a parent of 25 children, all, for example, 7 years old, I wouldn’t be taking them out to run and explore Nature so they could miraculously cover the curriculum. I had trouble taking 3 shopping. Happy for you to advocate for changes to the system, though. We teachers often feel very alone in this. At the same time you might inspire more parents to provide some educational experiences for their children. A thought-provoking read!

I love every one of the quotes you have written, they absolutely resonate with me. I have just stated homeschooling my 3 kids after being in the school system for a number of years now.

In reply to Rebekah. Start planting seeds with your husband. Your baby is so little, you have lots of time left to convince him. We started talking about it before we had kids and now my husband's fully on board!

I cannot get my sixth grader to do anything on an iPad. She is too busy writing poetry in a spiral notebook. We have to restrict her reading time if she starts her homework late.

I would be ok with writing poetry on an electronic medium. But it does not feel good like a pencil, or so she says. Her tactile nature is cultivated by years of playing with rocks and stuffed animals.

I am hooked on your blog. I was directed here by an unschooler I connected with in a facebook group. We have made the move to Unschool our children 5, 3 and 8 months. I have been really very nervous about the ‘unknown’; but reading your words and seeing how passionate you are about it all, gives me confidence in our decision. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
