Summary: <a rel="NOFOLLOW" href="https://ultimateradioshow.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/MBFLP-265-2-Homeschooling-or-School-at-Home-FB-scaled.jpg"></a><br> <br> Continuing our comparison of true homeschooling with the school-at-home model! Let's talk about how independent home education looks different day-to-day, and why duplicating the schoolroom experience at home is more stressful, less efficient, and a lot less fun than charting a new, freer pathway to learning and exploring together.<br> <br> A Fundamental Distinction<br> <br> A lot of what happens in the classroom is due to the dynamics of that situation. The teacher has to consider twenty or twenty-five students, of all different gifts or needs, coming from a range of family and educational backgrounds, but all funneled into the same classroom, same book, same tests. The whole process of extra worksheets, frequent testing, homework, and report cards happens because that single teacher can't focus as much attention on each child as she might -- and the parents don't know what happens in the schoolroom unless she communicates it home in some way.<br> <br> How much of that applies to a homeschool, where the teacher has known the students from birth, and the parents are well aware of how their students are doing because there's a parent-teacher conference at every meal?<br> <br> But there's a lot more to be said ... so listen in! <a rel="NOFOLLOW" href="https://ultimateradioshow.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/MBFLP-265-2-Homeschooling-or-School-at-Home-P-scaled.jpg"></a><br> <br> <a rel="NOFOLLOW" href="https://ultimateradioshow.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/Listener-Response-Line.jpg"></a>
