We mostly unschool with Waldorf inspiration. I write down my goals for the year, in each subject of study. Our subjects are currently: Writing/Reading, Math, Social Studies, Movement, Spanish, German, Politics, Science, Art and Spirituality.
Each day has a theme such as Math Monday, Musical Tuesday, Foreign Language Friday, etc. I record all the educational things we do (i.e. writing sentences, reading books, telling math gnome stories, reviewing the planets, visiting the museum, going to the park, etc.) Then I review what we've been doing along side my goals every few months and see where there's room for improvement (i.e. watching more Spanish movies, taking more field trips, reviewing division, etc)
We home school to avoid corporate and institutionalized influence on our children. We also believe education should happen in the home, in a multi-generational family setting with real world application and common sense.
In my opinion every girl should become educated. She should study art, literature, math, science, world cultures, etc. She should settle herself then in her faith and rooted in these two foundations go out into the world a strong wife, mother and home school teacher. Homeschool the revolution.
