Bring Your Friendship Voice to the Table
Move into “shared learning mode” (instead of “teacher mode”) when home educating.
Be the one who:
- is curious,
- doesn’t know all the answers,
- wonders aloud,
- is inspired by a child’s idea,
- gets a kick out of her kid’s antics.
Let go of your need to be obeyed, thanked, and appreciated.
It’s a little shift—a tiny tweak, really, to sit on the same side of the learning table as your child. It’s the unique opportunity that is not always possible in school.
Lucky us!
