Community Roots 🌿 Homeschooling

Image
 How can parents and kids stay stress free in today’s world? My best answer, and solution is to spend as much time loving yourselves and each other as possible! Yes, self nurture is the greatest tool we can begin with. My favorite practices are guided meditation that expand consciousnesses and soothing the nervous system, yoga, qi gong, dance, music, art, hiking, time in nature, gardening, tea making, healthy food preparations, altar making, and natural building. This is just to name a few broadly. You can add the basic subjects of math, reading, writing, science, geography, health, history, civilization studies right into the flow. It is as simple as folding ingredients gently into a cake batter! Think less stress and don’t go against the natural flow of healing your own energy. Building a homeschool brings us back to basic roots and community. Being a parent in today’s world can bring more stress then good if days are spent far from our kids and we worry about one another’s safety.

New Era of Time 🌐 Homeschooling

Image
Homeschooling can be as natural and fun as you can make it. We do not have to over complicate our educational system. Utilize everyday life as a teaching platform. What is happening in life surrounding us is to be focused on as means to harness strengths and resolve issues of weaknesses. Creating a balance to our lifestyle. Discovering the ways to create a healthy family environment  is the greatest teaching we can offer, so why not educate and learn everyday with each moment a focus on the entire family unit creating a wonderful life. Children are wired to be part of their tribe, not in comparison, sent out into unfamiliar and questionable territories, which this world is currently in a state of digesting the consequences of. Homeschooling can be paced at a natural rythym that suits the family it serves rather then us bending into its systematic or ridged requirements that bring greater imbalance and stress. Why do children need to cramp their hands writing too much, or sit at desks i

Home-School Pencil Sharpening activity with Arajah, Zenairoh, and Selena

Image
This is a pencil sharpening activity we did today.  Pencils do need sharpening.  We use some of the manual style pencil sharpeners.  We try not to use any electrical or high-tech gadgets for pencils.  It is not necessary.  Take a look at some of these traditional, old-fashioned pencil sharpeners.  They need to be bolted down.  But we had them without bolting to a furniture surface.  It would be nice to attach these sharpeners to a school desk or table in the School-House!  Maybe that will be an activity we can do in the near future. Thanks for looking! Now we have pencils for writing and drawing!

Home-School Field Trip to a regional location

Image
These are some pics (images photos) of our recent Home-School Field Trip to a regional location.  In between the snowstorms and Nor-easters, we were able to go on a short travel.  We visited the Poughkeepsie Waryas Park.  It is in the City of Poughkeepsie, NY.  It is at the base of the historic "Franklin D. Roosevelt Bridge" over the Hudson River. The park is a nice location with great recreation for the children to play.  The park is right alongside the Hudsron River, so it is a riverside attraction. It's worth the visit.  Have a good time there. As we did. Maybe we will meet you there!

One Room School-house Symbolic of Home-Schooling

Image
What is a One-room School-house?  It is a concept, taken as a symbol.  What does it symbolize?  It could be somewhat symbolic of the trend of Home-Schooling.  It has multiple layers to what it means.  It stands for the old-fashioned values. It stands for a time long ago in America, U.S.A.  Long ago when common sense prevailed, in more simple times. When the world was not as it is now.  Maybe a yesteryear when things were not as complicated and chaotic.  We long for a Day like that: simple, wholesome, basic good times. Let's find out what it could be like if we revisit that remembrance.  Or call it nostalgia.  Take a look at some images which speak of it:
