ABC's of Homeschooling -- (R) -- S

How did I do this again I don't know but I missed "R" last week on the ABC's of Homeschooling. So this week will be both "R" and "S".

Link up to the ABC's


"R" is for Relax.  Our whole way of schooling is very relaxed. I go with the flow to get it all done. Yes I set goals to get things done each day. But I don't stress out when things get missed or when our day needs to be adjusted due to an opportunity comes our way. I remember when I was not so relaxed, that lead to a very stressful day not only for me but for my son.

"S" is for Statistics, homeschool statistics to be exact. I was amazed when I saw this information on homeschool statistics.

Example:
The government says that 1.5 million students were homeschooled in 2007, a 36% increase since the last study in 2003.


Can you imagine what it is now in 2012? There are so many different learning styles and teaching styles that it is amazing. I am blown away by homeschool statistics. When I first started homeschooling in 2003 I barely new anyone who homeschooled. Now I run into homeschoolers everywhere.

The homeschooling trend is growing very fast!

  1. I love it! Yes I've seen it growing just in my area in Eastern Washington. Homeschooling has become more "in", and much more common now than when we first began in 1997. I would LOVE to see this year's or even last year's statistics! :)
