Wonderful Words of Wisdom ~ Homeschooling is NOT the Same as Crisis Schooling



Homeschooling is NOT the Same as Crisis Schooling: advice during coronavirus COVID -19 shut downs

This blogger did a fabulous job at putting into words the stark difference between seasoned homeschoolers and those parents that are being suddenly thrust into being their child's or children's teacher overnight. As homeschoolers we RUN THE SHOW. On the other hand, all of the parents being thrust into suddenly having to be their children's sideline teacher when probably the school and their actual teacher are probably scrambling to try and figure out how to make "it all work" is still in the works. Then you add in the element of the new ways of teaching math that totally baffles parents and how they learned math. The perfect storm begins. No, like the blogger, I will say with 100% honesty. Homeschooling is not the same as what you are venturing into right now.
