Awesome information. We are just getting started and still have a lot to learn. We also have to figure out the homeschooling piece. Trying not to worry about it.

Thank you for the tips! I used to be a 4th grade school teacher and it is much less overwhelming to think of developing a curriculum for younger kids than for highschoolers. We are doing this in what is probably reverse order for most familes. My son has been in public school all his life and we now want to sail and homeschool during his highschool years. I tend to think packaged learning is better at his age, but I agree whole-heartedly with your statement about parting with the cookie cutter education.

Hey, just read Nadine’s home schooling piece. Not sure how I missed it before, but it is terrific. It is exactly what I felt was missing from the “Families Project”…specific “how-to’s” when the parents kept talking about designing their own curriculum. People forget that those of us who have never been teachers really have little clue where to start! Can we put a link to this on the Families page? Or on Resources. Or on a “Topics” link? It’s stimulating! I want a copy of Lesson Plans Ahoy for myself, for thinking about ways to interact with my grandson!

And yes, I will order it thru women and Cruising.com’s Bookstore link to Amazon!!
