Mom Isn’t Teaching Today

by

looking out windowHello, you have reached the bloggy message system for Mom Is Teaching. Mom is out for the day riding bikes, blowing bubbles, and chasing butterflies in the yard. There may even be a water balloon fight weather permitting.

At the tone please leave a message and Mom will get back to you as soon as it is too dark to play anymore. Or choose one of the options below for some great reading time.

Dana takes on College and the homeschool advantage. She does a great job at pointing out that college requires independence and self-motivation, something that homeschooled kids often have in abundance.

Homeschooler Savvy shares a whole year’s worth of Girl Scouts curriculum. Trust me, it’s worth checking out to see what all they have planned to do throughout the year.

Tammy managed to put together a reasoned and rational response to the Subway scandal that seems to have everyone talking. I’ve been avoiding it, mostly because the best I can think of involves a lot of sighing and shaking my head.

Over at Learning At Home a visitor gave them a chance to study what homeschooling looks like for them. I have to agree, it looks like a lot of fun to me too.

Not a specifically home education related post, but the political junkie in me can’t help but share. Obama on education, what his plans and ideas are if he becomes president. No matter what side you are on it’s always worth checking out all of the candidates thoughts on the issues.

Now go outside yourself and soak up some sunshine and fresh air. The world is too beautiful to be stuck inside at a computer all day.
