Product Info Reviews

Description:

For some families, homeschooling or alternative learning is a better option than traditional school. In Trust the Children, Anna Kealoha provides parents and teachers with a wide range of activities and approaches to teaching a comprehensive list of subjects, from "Addition" to "Zoology," with an emphasis on creative art, music, and natural science, as well as the more traditional school curricula. Throughout the text, Kealoha emphasizes fostering a love of learning and self-motivation.

Kealoha, a long-time proponant of homeschooling, reviews the history and philosophies of the alternative learning movement, gives details on how to create a homeschool, and generally makes a strong case for taking control of your children's educational process. For those considering homeschooling their children or just exploring educational options, this book is an excellent resource. For parents sticking with more traditional forms of schooling, Trust the Children provides wonderful, fun, supplementary activities to do with your kids.
