A few tidbits, as promised, from ENOCH
From the Keynote by Kevin Swanson:
A Few Reasons to Homeschool
- You can take vacation whenever you want
- You can pray whenever you want
- The Ten Commandments can be hung on every wall if you so wish
- All the kids can be in the same level
- You can have a class reunion whenever you want
- There are no school bullies to worry about
- You can wear your pjs if you are so inclined and don't have to worry about school uniforms
- Bring your guns to school
- Don't have to worry about missing the bus. Ever.
- The staff can make out in front of the class
Some of that is just fun and funny..but has a ring of truth as well.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
- CARE AND LOVE are the key to educating your child
- Homeschoolers are above the national average by 39%
- Videophilia (sp?) is a real problem--(the desire to be around screens all the time)
- Sometimes goals can be good..but also can be the enemy of the best!!
- Return to boredom. Boredom breeds industriousness.
- You use more brain power staring at a blank wall than in watching tv
- Textbooks have an AGENDA
- Not all great minds are good. Some great minds are evil.
- There is no such thing as individuality in public schools
- Plan when you can. Record when you are able.
From Andrew Pudewa's Nature Deficit Disorder:
In order to learn anything one must:
- have attentive perception
- contemplation-process info-comprehend
- conceptualization-connections that make sense
- representation-re-present it to others via words, pictures, music etc.
