#1: Introducing Our Homeschool History Our Homeschool History

    • How To

Welcome to the first episode of a broadcast that will span a nearly-four-decade period of homeschooling!
 
In today’s episode, I go back thirty-eight years ago when we began homeschooling my younger sister (eighth grade) with a toddler in tow:
 
Why a 21 year old young mom who just graduated from college with a teaching degree was drawn to homeschooling
How we “fell” into homeschooling, which would become a way of life for us
What homeschooling was like in Indiana in the early 80’s—and how we attended the first state homeschool convention!
The difficulty in getting materials then (and “under the table” purchases from Christian schools)
The political climate during the early days
How we were able to bring my sister up multiple grade levels on one academic year
Much more!
 
This episode is a little longer than what I’ll typically do. So keep watching for these ten-minute episodes and be motivated, inspired, and taught through my ups and downs, successes and mistakes.
