Some people might be curious about how we spend our days as homeschoolers. First, I can tell you that we have busy, fun-filled days of learning and growing. We share, discuss, create, play, write, read, think, learn, and live life. We are using a Literature-based Classical curriculum with a dash of child-led learning. This style of homeschooling leads to all sorts of adventures and discoveries. The best part is we are learning together as a family!
