Home Schooling

We missed open enrollment for the one the state of wi will pay for. however due to my kids special needs and the iep team determining that she will not be going for half the day in 5th gradei may be able to convince someone to let her in. how do i go about that.

i am homeschooled now and I want to go back, but its a long story. See when I was in 7th grade I tried homeschooling as a idea and i didnt really think i would do it for long so I went back in 8th grade. I had a horrible time. Its not that i got picked on, its just I was left out of a lot of things beacuse people thought I was weird for homeschooling. I had trouble making freinds because a lot of them already made their cliques which were almost impossible to come into. so i went back to homeschooling and i have been since now, finishing 9th grade going into 10th. I dont know I just need some help becuase I am thinking of going back to a cathicloc high school for 10th grade, but I am a little hessitent because I dont want to have a horrible time like a did in 8th grade. And please dont say like u need to for social skills or whatever thats not what im asking.

I have been educating at home for two years now, started when she was 12 and couldn't read, she is now 14 and preparing for her English and Math GCSE. We cover lots of other subjects too.
My question is...I have been asked a lot of questions by other parents who are interested in Home Education for one reason or another and have tried to help them but now I have been asked if it would be legal for me to help them educate their child. I.E. could someone be 'home educated' but actully have lessons and help from me rather than their own parent(s)?
I am not a teacher by any means but I have done well with the now 14 year old over the past two years. Personally I would think it would not be acceptable but then again I am unsure so would appreciate any insights.
Maybe I should have looked at teaching all those years ago when in careers advice sessions!!! I obviously have a bit of a knack. I am in the UK by the way, England.

I just wrote this up in the last couple of hours and I really need someone to give me more ideas....make it better....give a twist ending to it...etc....so please read it and then let me know what to do next.....Thanks!!

The sky was black and full of clouds. The cold wind cut my face like a sharp knife. Everything was pitch-black. As I stalked in the darkness, I could hear the last few insects chirping and hissing above me. The moon slipped out of sight and left only a dim light. In this lonely area, everything was quiet and still, except for my figure that was lurking in the shadows. I was very nervous though, but not enough to let my brother steal my girlfriend.

As I stalked in the darkness, I could barely see where I was going, since the blackness was thick – so thick that it could almost be felt through my fingers. It was a mystical night; there was not one person or thing in sight, and I felt a sense of triumph creeping up my spine.

It's really strange to me and I think it's pretty annoying. I meet someone, they're very impressed with me, and think I'm awesome. Then they find out I don't go to school and all of a sudden I'm deprived?

You didn't know I was homeschooled until I told you...doesn't that negate your point?

More of a rant than a question, I know.

Over the summer I like to keep my two kids, ages 8 and 10 busy and do a few lessons plans over the summer so that they do not forget everything. I would like to do a bit of history; either united state or world history this summer and I was wondering if there are any good web sites for kids that cover history and has some good printable work sheets and/or games.

My son was nearly killed in a car crash a few years ago, and now has trouble learning new lessons in school. Is there any web sites or ideas from anyone to help me teach him at home and increase his chances for success. He is going into the second grade this year, and is not really where he needs to be. If anyone can help I will be forever greatful. Thank You so much!

This was part of the answer to current question in homeschool section. It made me think. What if the parent is not 'smart'? Would this keep a student who learns at home from being a successful adult?
How do we measure "smart"? How smart do we have to be to teach our children?

These people get on here time and time again and question if it is better to be taught at home stating that parents are not qualified to teach. The national winner at the spelling bee this year, happens to be a homeschooler, is actually better at MATH and he beat out every one else!

What more do people need to see?

Our daughter has always displayed certain characteristics of being gifted but we've never had her tested. Of course the school district in our area tests for free, however, if she isn't enrolled in public school is she still entitled to be tested without charge? We still pay school taxes but I'm not sure if they will give us a problem. Another question, do you think it's actually necessary for one to know if a child is gifted and if so why? What difference would this make? Is there an advantage to knowing?

Anyone try this?

Two of my kids have talked about starting a business to earn more money for vacation funds (they want to go to Disneyworld, possibly Europe-- normally our vacation fund can pretty much only cover a few camping trips a year).

Well, of course, I think it'd be a great learning experience, regardless of the outcome; however, running a business is far from our area of expertise, and the start-up budget is very limited.

Anyone ever ventured into this area before? Any advice on how to get started-- or any advice at all? Any kid-friendly resources, since I expect them to do most of the research themselves? Thanks.

Since careful budgeting is part of our lives, we're always looking for great resources and ideas that are inexpensive. Anyone wanna throw anything out there?

One thing we do is collect old school text books. We have gotten them from our district for free (every so often, they throw a bunch out, so it pays to keep in touch, especially if you have a homeschooling-friendly community). We also ask around, most people who have older children have some lurking in the garage or attic somewhere, or sometimes you'll find them at yard sales. While we don't often use them straight through, they do come in handy, and you can always search on the internet for additional enrichment materials like worksheets or project ideas if you wanted to do an entire chapter or unit.

How do you go about finding people who homeschool other kids in an area or state?

2007-05-31 03:49:13 · 11 answers · asked by ksmith1374 1

First, they come and automatically take our kids away from us. We aren't qualified to teach. We can't possibly do it. Anything outside the institution is unrealistic and impossible.

Then, when they screw up...

Well, you know, it all starts at home. It's the parents' fault that kids can't read, the parents should be more active! You can't expect us to do it, even though our laws make it criminal to do otherwise and you're forced to pay our employees' salaries!

Seems like you should pick a side and stick to it, no?

My son is almost 9 years old, he has been attending public school. He lives with his father and stepmother and they want to take him out of school to homeschool him. They say that it is for education reasons, because it is the last few weeks of school and he isn't learning anything, just re-cap of the year and for some reason that is a problem for them. I am strongly against the idea, but I have the feeling that we will be going to court eventually, if they try to push it. Another thing that was brought up was school shootings, and in my personal opinion, there are hundreds of thousands of schools in the United States, and only a few known school shootings. Please give me some advantages and disadvantages, I am trying to see this from both sides and keep an open mind, but I don't think anything is going to convince me that homeschool is best. One more thing I should mention, his stepmothers family just inherited a 50 acre farm, they want to move him there (middle of nowhere).
