I Wish I Knew

August 9, 2007 by Tsoniki 4 Comments

If I had only known…

I wonder if we have been schooling long enough to have an ‘if only I knew’ moment? If my kids had it their way we would ‘do school’ every day, all day long. They are my kids after all and I’m the one who went home with all the extra worksheets once school ended and forced my brothers to play school at any chance I could get.

It is funny to have Chris come home, ask how the day went, and have Alice say “we didn’t do any school work all day!”

I am glad I haven’t bought a huge set of curriculum, I’m glad that what we have done all along has continued to work and I’m glad we have neighbors who also homeschool. I’m glad Chris agrees this is the right thing to do.

    Last year, my daughter informed me she hated school. I took it quite personally, because although “fun” isn’t my goal, I don’t want her to despise it.

    Then, in conversation, I realized something. “School” to her was the fifteen minutes of copywork she had to do and the math practice. Not the learning part, just the worksheet I had her fill out to practice what we had already done.

    Everything else was just life. And she didn’t have a problem with that.
