We're in our 11th and
final home schooling year.
This
site is meant to provide you with a glimpse into our home educating experiences.
I am
inspired by, and use to some extent, the: "Charlotte Mason,"
"Classical "
and
literature-based methods in educating our children for eternity.
For the past nine years I have tried different approaches
with various
curricula but I
keep coming back to a blend of these three styles--and I pull from all sorts of
resources to help me plant the seeds for love of learning.
I still have one
"middle schooler" at home, and two in the public
school system in our home town. Although they seem to be doing
okay, I remain committed to being a primary
educator of our children and pray constantly for the Lord's help in
guiding them through these formative years, whether
they are at home, or being taught by someone else. It
is my hope that some of my samples, tips, experiences, and pitfalls mentioned here help you
in your own efforts to home school your loved ones. You're welcome
to check back as I hope to update this site with my successes and failures
on
this journey of learning and life. If you have something you've
tried and you would like to suggest it, please email me. I would love to
hear from you. (be sure to put Eclectic Home Schooler in the
heading).
