Introduction
Hi, I new to blogging but decided to give it a try. I have been homeschooling full time for 4 1/2 years. I have two boys. The oldest is 10 and the youngest is 4. Both boys have had special needs. The oldest has ADHD and anxiety issues and the youngest has cervical scoliosis, microcephaly and had muscular torticollis. He had neck surgery at Christmas time last year and spent 7 1/2 months in a brace that went from chin to belly. Their unique special needs has influenced the way we homeschool. We use a very eclectic approach. I can't decide between traditional, relaxed, unit, classical, Charlotte Mason so I just do all of the above. We started out the year doing ancient world history and nature studies but ended up scrapping it for awhile to work on character issues. My oldest ds is going through what I am calling "Character Bootcamp". His studies are an intensive focus on character training. At the beginning of the year we will begin again on ancient world history and nature studies.
