Actually your YT channel was the first one I watched and felt empowered to be able to do some things in a non-traditional way. I have a 4th grader. I've been feeling like we're doing too much these days (as we started back in early July). I like the schedule you have for your son. I need to allow myself to cut back on social studies and science. I'm glad I'm following you on Facebook or I would have missed strewing. :) Be blessed! rhonda mcknighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02018229725796276222noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7628767515693863152.post-5600137809477650512016-08-25T19:33:58.434-07:002016-08-25T19:33:58.434-07:00I've always been eclectic, Rhonda.

I do use traditional curriculum, but I also make up my own unit studies, strew a lot of delight-directed learning...along with snippets of lots of other methods. I don't exclusively belong to any method or style. <br />I talk about it most in this post.<br />http://www.theunlikelyhomeschool.com/2015/03/eclectic-homeschooling-learning-la-carte.html<br /><br />Thanks for reading!Jamie Ericksonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07210544168493409813noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7628767515693863152.post-58813266049465478932016-08-25T19:30:18.662-07:002016-08-25T19:30:18.662-07:00We just bought a cheap one-disc CD player at Walma...We just bought a cheap one-disc CD player at Walmart.

Just got away from it and videos because I started playing the comparison game and losing. I'd love to go back to some of your blog posts from the transition.
