What I try to do with my own Homeschool is to understand first what this is
all about. What are the things I need to equip myself on to have a better grasp
at teaching?
The first thing I did
when I made the step to home school was to equip myself with the skills needed
to become a teacher. With the internet and limitless books available on
education, I first took on the role of a student and learned.
I took hold of a scope
and sequence guide that tells you what knowledge and skills a child should be
learning at a certain grade. Next, I visited international schools and looked
at the publishers of the textbooks they are using and tried to get a hold of it.
I just tried to follow the topics in the book, and the rest is just reading
through it with them.
Most schools that have homeschooling accreditation will sell you a curriculum that's ready to use, just add faith! It's simple enough to follow and is divided into bite-size information.
It will be very helpful to find a homeschool support group that will guide you, the discipleship way. Find people who will give you the encouragement, prayers and inspiration to pursue the greater goal.
