what you need to homeschool

You don't need a college degree to homeschool

But here's what you do need...

•A passion for learning and teaching

•Patience and a genuine desire to spend that much time with your kids

•An open-minded approach to learning and teaching techniques

•The ability to do research so you can learn what children need a learning environment and find a curriculum or learn to make your own

•The understanding that homeschooling doesn't have to look like the classroom

-You can do class outside

-You can do play based learning techniques

-You can add cooking and chores to the school day

-be creative!
