    • Creating a Homeschool Co-op

    By Lisa - Unschooling Mom


    We have restructured the co-op to be MORE structured and yes- even more like school. The older kids seem to want it and once a week not such a bad things for younger kids. We have divided it up into 3 sections- math/english and “special projects”

    I am quite excited about the possibilities for this. Yes is is school-y and I have all but given up my unschooling roots but that’s okay. We all evolve and this is where we are now.
    I am single mom and this is my new reality and I am embracing it.
    I am in charge of Math for the kids this month and coming up with worksheets and lessons plans for both younger kids and older kids to be followed by “fun” math activities.

    Revising and taking a look at some of my online my math resources and printables.
    We do Singapore math daily and I think I will start out with assessing kids and seeing where they are at. Singapore Math does have printable sheets to do math placement tests and assessments.

      I’ll be interested to know how this goes. I think we as unschoolers have a tendency to eschew structure in all of its forms, but kids often want it. Hey, it’s more about choice than it is about no structure, right? And, it gives parents some direction too.
