The Homeschool Apologist

Ban public schooling. These kids aren't learning anything about how to recognize a credible source... 🤦🏼‍♀️

I have to admit that cave WAS pretty enticing more than once along the way... 🫪 Anyone else?

Big, fat, long Ticonderoga pencils for preschoolers and young elementary students are my source of nirvana. 🧡 "Mrs. H.A., what's your secret to homeschooling teens?" Ticonderoga My First Tri-Write pencils. Neon Pink for the really hard days. #homeschooling #nirvana #schoolsupplies

I love how this image captures the idea of intrinsic motivation—the girl is reaching towards the horse; there's a desire to know.

The vast majority of homeschooling parents use some sort of supplemental resources or supports in the education of their children! This includes online courses, tutors, co-ops, learning pods, online resources, and other supports. #Homeschooling #K12Education

I swore I'd never read it again, once upon a time. Never say never!

Definitely the folks I want to give total control over my kids to, for seven hours a day... #homeschool

Some dumb chick spewed hateful words at homeschooling families based on a 20yo stereotype, so here I am. I have time, I'll share the truth for my peeps still in the trenches. I'm passionate about children and education, progressive af, and Christian. #homeschoolapologist #homeschool

Stole this from Threads - I'd have shared the original but I needed to change it to past tense since my kids have all graduated. #education #homeschool #noregrets

No matter what benchmarks politicians set, test scores administrators chase, or standards teachers expect, learning depends on basic needs being met! Maslow before Bloom. Every time. #fixourschools #stopblamingparents #stopblamingteachers

Oh what a wonderful world it would be if we could get politicians out of ALL education decisions! You'd think the cash is coming straight out of their own pockets.

Once again, home education becomes the scapegoat rather than overworked and underfunded agency responsible for child welfare. 😡 #nothomeschooling

More and more families are homeschooling. Many say they had no choice | Nine.com.au https://ift.tt/iulECFs

We need to remember that homeschooling isn’t causing the problems in public education, it’s a response to the problems that aren’t being fixed.

Yesterday, my righteous indignation was sparked by someone who I used to have a very high opinion of. Today, I have a Substack and a stable of social media accounts. Fueled by good coffee, of course. #homeschool #coffeeislife
