People with experience in #homeschool and #unschool please help:
Our Little One (3) is doing great so far, but I feel I need to learn more so we can do this together with them. It feels overwhelming.
Do you have recommendations on books and guides to teach myself how to homeschool/unschool a pre school age kid? And what follows?
We don't consider schools here safe enough and it looks like it'll be a while before institutions come to their senses.
So we better prepare for the long haul. Thx
Anyone out there #unschool ?

Seriously thinking of #homeschooling my kid. Anyone out here do that? Any tips for newbies?

Two museums today for our unschool field trip.
The Hamilton Wood Type & Printing Museum (Two Rivers) has the world's largest collection of wood type along with all sorts of type-making & printing equipment (some still in use).
The Wisconsin Maritime Museum (Manitowoc) covers everything boat-related in the state--boat building, boats of all shapes & sizes, shipwrecks, etc. Includes a tour of a WW2 submarine (many were made in Manitowoc).

@PhillyV -- unfortunately, very true that it likely has zero chance.
I like to think though that it helps to plant and water seeds of doubt regarding the public "education" system. :)

“Learn Nothing Day is a challenge to us all to reconsider the way learning occurs. It’s very difficult to actually learn nothing in a day.”

“Education reformer, Will Richardson says there’s a surprising truth about schools. “Schools aren’t built for learning.” His TedTalk explores this surprising truth and the disconnect between what we believe about learning and the practices we have established in schools.”

The ongoing pandemic and its consequences on the school system are making us start to consider the possibility of #homeschool (or rather #unschool) for our little one.
But having 0 experience it feels a bit daunting.
Keen to hear some peeps' experiences and resources on the matter if anyone is happy to share. :)

#Introduction time. I’m Elise, born in Memphis, living on a small mountain #homestead in the Blue Ridge Mountains on #Virginia. I’m a #painter #potter small-time farmer / over-ambitious gardener. I used to teach #English at a small liberal arts college, but now I #unschool my three kids and make art. In 2020 I was tapped as one of #Airbnb ‘s first #Superhost Ambassadors to mentor new hosts in their platform. I love this work! I get to help folks from all over the world!

@Djeep — very glad to see some positive trend coming out of the Coof Madness Era.
Government schools don’t tell parents that, in the vast majority of districts, vaccine exemptions are available and easy to get. (States like Cali being exceptions.)
Much better yet though:

I am going to say Hi again in hopes people find me. I really would like to rebuild my online #unschooling community. I have 4 #unschool #homeeducated kids of my own and facilitate #SelfDirectedEducation for another 26 who attend the #AgileLearningCenter I co-founded with friends. Children are people.
I love hearing from other people navigating this culturally weird and awesome way of being in relationship with children and one another.

Government schooling = socialist socialization.
