I am only new to homeschooling and every family I visit seems to have their own homeschooling approach to education. It is leaving me confused. One family uses a set of workbooks and others seem to use no set text. How do I know what I should do?
Response from design-your-homeschool.com
You are exactly right with your observations. Every family has their own unique homeschooling approach and educates their children in their own unique way. I have been asked where you can buy ...The Homeschool Curriculum..., but there is no such thing! In actual fact, this is the reason why I have written this site - to help each family find their own way. Perhaps The Guide would be a good place to start finding your way.
Your observation also illustrates the truth that each family have their own goals. This is something which you need to decide on as a family.
The scope of home school approaches is dependent on the unique goals set by a family.
Yes, it may be confusing, but I believe the best way to find out your approach to education, is to find out what your real goals are as a family. Read more about the Importance of Setting Goals here.
Hope this helps!
