Homeschooling Without New Curriculum

Let’s rock your homeschool mom life. Ready? 📚✏️🌍 👉You don’t need to buy that new curriculum. You’re welcome. {I could have saved so much 💰over these ten years of home education!} I know that new book looks like it will work miracles. I know there’s always the chance that it will “click” with a different approach. However… ‼️Save your money. Let’s rethink how you use what you already have! 🕐 Don’t do the whole lesson. Quit when they’re “done”. 🕑 Don’t do every lesson. Don’t waste three pages working on something they could get in one. 🕒 Don’t follow the “script”. It’s okay to let YouTube teach something. You don’t have to read it to them just because it tells you to. 🕓 Write it out for them. Or verbally. Or in the dry erase board. You don’t have to use a pencil and paper. 🕔 Work hard on it for a month and take a big break! You don’t have to do it every stinkin’ day. Or stop the whole thing and learn through games, cooking, exploring, money… and real world. ❤️I really like this option. Yes, I know at some point your kid does need to do math. But it’s amazing how much learning happens when they’re ready and their brains can handle harder stuff easier. 👉You know where to find me for your homeschool support! 👉👉And follow me @reclaimingwonders so I can encourage you to do less. It still counts! . . . 📸Pics from @riverbendnaturecenter summer 2023 - because learning at home is lame. 😉 . . . . . .
