I used to say that homeschooling was our lifestyle but now I say our lifestyle is our homeschool!
Lifestyle Homeschool is about discipling our children; about character training, about everyday life giving learning opportunities, about Bible study and practical skills. Your lifestyle will provide the experiences that will give your children a rich education.
Jun. 23, 2008 - Bootcamp for the Sluggard – Finishing the job
I previously wrote about being thorough and knowing the goal for the moment – knowing what needs to be done and keeping our focus on that. The next thing bootcamp is going to cover is finishing the job.What constitutes a finished job?
Everything I was asked to do is done
I have done my best
I have put away all my tools
I report back to mum
It is the reporting back that we will be focusing on now.I will expect the following words, “Mum, I am finished …….. (insert whatever job was just completed) What would you like me to do now”. (or something similar)The idea is that the children tell me what they have finished and are available for further instruction.
A place to share the things that happen in my family. The longer I homeschool the quicker I realise that these are not just everyday family happenings - they are the experiences that are educating my children.

Be a Deliberate Parent

In amongst the parenting, the training, the homeschooling I must remember that I am also a homemaker.
