My daughter has never been to formal school except a short (8-9 month) period at daycare when she was 3. Since she was officially of “school-age”, we’ve sorta flip-flopped a bit between unschooling and more structured learning. It doesn’t seem to matter how or what we try when it comes to formal, scheduled learning, it just never seems to work for us for one reason or another. My intuition tells me to just keep on doing what we’re doing… Letting her explore our world, answer questions, work together to find the answers that I cannot provide from my own knowledge, etc… But then once in a while that “social pressure” and fear creeps up on me and I think “what am I doing?!”… I grew up in the public school system and a relatively mainstream lifestyle of the 90’s… So I’ve been working on deprogramming and deschooling myself so that I can continue to raise my child in the way that feels intuitively natural to me.

These phases of learning make so much sense, and it eases my mind a bit for the times when I’ve felt like I maybe haven’t done enough academically.

The biggest change I have made is that I used to wait to get to reading time and the fun projects until after all the schoolwork was done. And sometimes we didn’t get to them! Now I feel confident enough to realize family reading time IS the curriculum. Really, if you do nothing else but read the classics to your kids, they would have a good foundation! Add to that lots if fun hands on project based learning. Some writing. Lots of time outdoors. Family work, doing chores together, protecting your family time. Your own continued study. Those are my ingredients. Oh, and the def. of a classic is a work of art or literature that you would want to come back to over and over again because you learn something more each time from it. There are classics in all fields including math, science, art, music, computer programming, etc.

I am feeling a bit discouraged, as I have leaned more toward requiring, rather than inspiring, though not intentionally. I wish I had come across this information sooner in our homeschooling journey. (My kids are 11, 9, 8, and 7).

How does a mom shift gears after she’s already bought all her curriculum for the year? How does a mom shift gears when it feels like it might be too late? Help!
