To Pursue Life is To Pursue Knowledge
🌎 Children pursue life, and in
doing so, pursue knowledge.
🍎 The work of a schoolteacher is not the same as that of a homeschooling parent. In most schools, a teacher is hired to deliver a ready-made, standardized, year-long curriculum to 25 or more age-segregated children who are confined in a building all day.
📖 The traditional curriculum is based on the assumption that children must be pursued by knowledge because they will never pursue it themselves. Most children don’t like textbooks, workbooks, quizzes, rote memorization, subject schedules, and lengthy periods of physical inactivity.
🌱 Unschooling isn’t a method, it is a way of looking at children and at life. It is based on trust that parents and children will find the paths that work best for them - without depending on educational institutions, publishing companies, or experts to tell them what to do.
💙The greatest gifts that a child can receive are an opened mind, a caring heart, and ignited creativity. Children who develop a healthy balance of mind and spirit are better able to respond to life’s challenges when given the tools to think and discover for themselves.
