New journey

So I started this blog to practice my writing since I was teaching writing to Jr. Highers.  Now we are starting  our homeschooling journey.  There are a million blogs about homeschooling out there, and I know no one but me and maybe my sister will read this one.  It's just for my own practice and thinking.

I went to the annual conference put on by our charter school through which we homeschool today.   I came away inspired to:
*create a dedicated physical space
*view education as discipleship--coming alongside your child
*use a discipline/reward system
*remember the objective of the lesson, not just check off the boxes that it's done
*focus on my children during our school time and resist the urge to multi-task.  If I want them to value it and take it seriously, I must do the same.
