Where we began...

When we first started homeschooling we tried to do school. Just like ps. Well Beth did not do well in ps. She has Adhd. Her attention span is not the greatest. In public school all I got was they wanted her on more and more meds. It made her cranky and whiny. I do not know about you but I would take hyper over whining any day of the week. Since we began homeschooling I have learned a lot. But the biggest lesson I learned is not to even attempt to just do school at home. Textbooks are not always the answer. We do a lot of reading, hands on activities, and thinking outside the box. My daughter is thriving now. She takes only a small amount of medicine now. This has been a revelation for me. I have learned so much from other homeschoolers and from many books. Please know that you can do this. Your children are worth it.
