my definition of unschooling
[email protected]
Well, it's one of them.
I'm grumpy with Angelfire (and I suppose they were grumpy with me first!
<g>), so as I'm putting all my stuff on a geocities site, I came across this,
which I don't really need at the new site, so I figured rather than just lose
it forever, I'd deposit it here! <g>
The links were some of mine, some of other people's, as usual.
My Favorite things about Unschooling
* You can do it at home!
* Your kids are there!
* It makes all of life a peaceful learning lab.
Unschooling is a subset of homeschooling. Unschooling is the radical,
philosophical end of homeschooling. Unschooling is living a rich life and
letting learning drop into your lap and into your ears and mind while you
laugh and listen to music and play games. Unschooling is seeing the magic in
every day, and the joy in yourself and the people around you. If your
children don't go to school, why should you bring school home? Be free! There
is nothing in school that isn't also in the real world. (And if there IS, why
would you be needing to know it if it doesn't exist outside?) Use primary
sources, not textbooks. Look at real nature, not photos of nature in a book.
---------------------------------
If anyone here is bored and wants to help me iron out glitches in links on
the rabbit-warren of unschooling stuff which begins at sandradodd.com, I'd
appreciate the help. If you have better things to do, I TOTALLY understand
that! <bwg>
(If anything links to an expage.com page with advertisements, that is a
glitch.)
Thanks.
Sandra

Yes, but I have to pay $9 a month protection money.
I've put almost everything I ever wrote (well... some stuff) and haven't used
up 2% of my $9 a month storage space, but at least there aren't
advertisements.
It's through geocities/yahoo.

I think that's the $13 deal, like for businesses.
