But I did purchase thousands of dollars worth of curriculum...Yup...And it wasn't necessarily worth it.Camiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11332822555765142547noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2504442519350765660.post-67939998333990181052010-04-01T23:04:57.981-07:002010-04-01T23:04:57.981-07:00That was about the order of my homeschooling disco...That was about the order of my homeschooling discoveries too. Although I personally liked the idea of learning greek and latin roots, I didn't end up (in practice) like the idea of my kids doing repititious phonics, etc. activities where they rewrote answers to things they already knew and got bored out of their minds.<br /><br />I'm don't think I'm such an unschooler as you though...as I like to have a plan. But, my plan involves the purchase of living books rather than textbooks or worksheets and I kind of follow the four year history rotation when picking out my books (like the Well Trained Mind). I probably could use the library, but I like hand-picking my books and am not good at getting them back on time.<br /><br />Anyhow...I relate. Although, I don't think you are truly an unschooler, because it sound like you direct your kids activities rather than the other way around.<br /><br />CathyCathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05063927120209857937noreply@blogger.com
