After I published my initial planner, I wanted to create a book for my son. He helped create the ideas for what sections it should have: Superheroes, Garden to Table, Be a Wordsmith, If You Build It, For the Love of Nature, and I Am a Part of Something Bigger.
This download comes from the final section, which explores our role within our community (including the global one), as well as levels of government and how to contribute our voice to the shaping of our world and future. In this PDF, kids can follow the outline to draft a letter to a representative about an issue they feel strongly about.
See it on Amazon…
Who am I? Foremost, the lucky momma of an amazing boy. To be perfectly honest, I am less his teacher than he is my inspiration - I have learned at least as much from him in the last eight years as he has from me.
I am an old-timer at heart; I'd rather live on a farm, garden, crochet, and raise my kid out in the sun than anything else. I'm a bit of a technological dinosaur, more geared toward life where you can get your hands dirty and have some fun exploring, learning, and growing. I'm a homeschooled, homeschooling single parent with a passion for my son, nature, and the simple life.
I am not here to pretend I know it all or lay out the research or provide a step-by-step game plan. I hope to encourage and inspire families to join in the journey of learning together - and have the fun that life is supposed to be made of along the way. Happy exploring!
