Been testing the water these few days with this question, “Do you want to go to school?” To my horror, K’s answer is now “No”.
Knew it. His interest to go to school was purely on a whim. He now prefers to spend time with me in the morning, reading together, learning from new lapbooks, playing with his hoard of toys that he recently amassed from Christmas, going for our weekly nature walks or simply tagging along while I ran errands during certain weekday mornings. Don’t know if I should give myself a pat on the back for making home learning fun for K.
Looks like “School is great / wonderful and you will have lots of fun and friends” indoctrination needs to start a.s.a.p. I still don’t have the guts, determination or discipline to home-school K for all of his preschool years.
Nic – Thanks for your encouragement
I do hope that he will fit in well with structured learning when time comes.
you're doing great on homeschooling K!
does K goes to any playgroup or enrichment class? maybe having him attending one will help him to be more open to the idea of going to school. =)
