Surviving the Applewhites - what do you think? (and another question) |
|
Has anyone read this book? I loved it and so did a lot of my students (I teach 6th and 7th grades in a public school). I liked the way the school was portrayed in it.
BTW, I have a 2 year old who I am interested in homeschooling/unschooling when she is older. My problem is that I am a single mom, so I would have a problem with finances unless I find a partner. How do you deal with the loss of a second income in your family? How many single moms are homeschooling their kids, and how can you afford it!
Thanks

so she started her own school, using the Calvert School format. Maybe, since you have certification, you could find a few parents who would be willing to pay you to teach their children. That way your daughter would reap the social benefits of learning with a small group.
It would mean quitting your regular job, of course; but it might be worth considering...

It's in my classroom library (public school).
I also wish I had an independent income. I have a grandson starting K next September, and I'd love to be his personal "school."
