Long term October:
Reviewing our educational
goals.
Can you tell I have had school on my mind lately!
I really can not tell you the reason except for it is a pretty consuming task and I enjoy being consumed. .
Well I read an article last week about long term Homeschool goals. I just have not been able to let it go. So I've been making list trying to decide exactly what our long term goals are.
I read that by setting these goals you actually are cutting planning time in half. When you go to search for a curriculum change, math text or literature program you can easily wade through most of them if they don't align with your education philosophies and long terms goals.
Read: MAKE MY LIFE EASIER. (I'm in)
Now a disclaimer. I plan for these to be fluid as the years go by they are more meant to be a gentle guide rather than an absolute.
This whole month I plan on reading and writing on our long term goals regarding our children's education.
Why you ask because it is important to me, because as of right now I don't even know our long term goals and I value others thoughts regarding the topic.
What this is not meant to be
is a validation of any kind.
an absolute, long term goals are a personal choice these just happen to be ours(for now).
Here are the topics I plan to write about throughout the month.
To homeschool or not?
Short term or long
haul?
Our educational
philosophies?
Education timeline.
Our important things
to know.
Our important places
to go.
Our important things
to do.
Our important books to
read.
