“I’m Thinking About Homeschooling”

You’re also probably thinking, But can I really teach my children? Where do I start? What if I need to work outside the home? Must I have twelve children, raise goats, and bake my own bread? And what about socialization?

I could tell you the answers to these questions, but I would rather show you. Beginning with my own, I want to introduce you to fifteen families in fifteen unique situations who have all chosen to homeschool for different reasons, using a variety of learning methods. So… let’s rap lightly on the homeschool door and peek inside before we decide if we are ready to move in!

Story Behind the Book

“My hope is that by the end of the book, and a stroll through the neighborhood, you will feel more confident as you identify a family situation and teaching method that resonates with your personality and philosophy of education. From there, you can simply look to the end of each chapter to find a sample schedule for the homsechool day and list of curriculum suggestions for that particular teaching method.”

—Lisa

So You’re Thinking About Homeschooling: Second Edition: Fifteen Families Show How You Can Do It

My son in going to be starting first grade. For K I had him enrolled in a charter school which provided a homeschooling program. He did well but his dad thinks we should give the public schools a chance (again) and not do homeschooling next year. I’m having issues with this because he did really well with the homeschooling. DH said that if there is any problem we could just start homeschooling again; however, I would like to homeschool w/o the help of a charter school if we do go back to homeschooling.
