Our Home Learning Adventure
I truly believe that learning starts at birth and continues until the end. It is the most natural human endeavor, like love. In fact the two are so closely entwined! Freedom to explore and play, allowance to self-direct, and a wealth of exposure to all the wonders, minutae, and even ugliness of real life are what continue to nurture the drive and passion to learn that children are born with. What a joy it is to observe, participate and learn anew along with them!

He has refused to discuss home learning as an option, but I'm still hoping that there may be room for guiding the type of schooling Daniel gets. There are three learnign styles i know of, perhpas more??? Auditory, visual and kinesthetic. Daniel seems to use all three! I'm wondering if you can tell at his age, now five, which one is strongest? Does it even matter? He loves to build, invent, move, dance, do sports, do science experiments, he loves to listen to stories, and recount his own and those of movies, or explain the steps he took to create or problem solve. He is extremely visual and has amazing spacial cognition, draws endlessly, imagines incredibly, has deep inner world......
