Sanda Dodd's Advice
Paula Parmenter
Thank you for you advice. I am new to unschooling and have not gotten
completely comfortable with it yet. I hear so much about the emphasis
on the importance of MATH that I panic when I don't see Azure doing
any (I just haven't noticed that, yes, she is really doing "math" in
everyday life!) Your words are comforting to me and I will check out
your website. I am new to this list, but already I know it will be
very valuable to me. I appreciate any and all advice that I am given -
thank you. I guess that I am more comfortable with unschooling other
subjects and just need to treat math the same way. I know that (in my
head at least) she will learn what she needs to know for college, I
just get scared and revert to my old home "school" thinking. This list
is awesome. I am not alone, I now know people who also unschooling and
they are sucessful in raising educated kids. I have a lot to learn
about letting go of my old thinking.
