Episode 43: Rethinking Reluctance

Sisters Who Homeschool Podcast ·

2025/03/23

What can you do when reluctance shows up in your homeschooling day? As homeschoolers we always aim to foster a positive learning experience for our kids, and sometimes we need to rethink how to approach things. Sometimes we can hold on to more than we realise when it comes to what learning is supposed to 'look like'. But, we are here to remind you that the sky is the limit in terms of approaching learning topics and it will look different for every family. Taking time to stop, reflect, and le...

2025/03/02

Learning never stops! An average homeschool day brings with it the chance to slow down and explore learning through everyday life.

Dropping a very specific 'school' structure can be so empowering, but at the same time... confusing. Learning how to plan your days, or knowing when to drop them to stay home instead takes time to learn (and unlearn!)The media sometimes make it into the not-so-nice part of this sandwich, as well as those people in our lives who just 'don't get it'.&n...
