I have 5 Signs that it may be time for you to start unschooling!

Whether you've been homeschooling and it's not working out as planned, or you're looking for alternatives to public schools, I want to share how to get started homeschooling from an unschooling perspective.

I know, it can be scary to do something this unconventional, but gather some information and support, and you'll be able to do this. Think of me as virtually holding your hand as you gain confidence!

Many of us memorized math facts that we don't use a lot in our adult lives. But what if I told you that you actually DO use many of them - even the Pythagorean Theorem - but you just don't realize it?

This is a little different podcast this week, prompted by something that happened to me after a podcast interview as well as something I've seen recently on social media - you probably have too!

So let's take a few minutes to talk about how even something like the Pythagorean Theorem really does weave through our lives - and random memorization of theorems or math facts are probably not the best way to understand what it's all about.

You can see the transcript for this blogpost - along with 75! Uses of the Pythagorean Theorem in Real Life here:
What About That Pythagorean Theorem?

And if you're interested in finding all the different ways Math weaves through daily lives, my course will help you so much! You'll never need to buy an other Math Curriculum! Here's the link for the course:

After spending most of the month talking about typical unschooling days - and how nothing is really "typical", this week, I'm doing a 180!
Turns out, there ARE some things that are typical in the day in the life of a successful unschooling family. And I want you to know what that is! Actually, I've come up with SEVEN Tips that set successful unschooling parents apart from the rest.

I now have a Typical Day Playlist over at YouTube so you can watch/listen to anything I have that refers to A Day in the Life of an Unschooler, Typical Days, etc.

I did a 15-day Challenge in my Membership Group, so if you need to dive deeper into this, you can join us through the special link for Podcast Listeners!

What IS an unschooling day like?
That's one of the most common questions when parents are thinking about unschooling as a homeschooling option. We KNOW what school looks like. We even have a pretty good guess about what traditional school-at-home homeschooling looks like. But unschooling? That's a different story!

Sue Patterson shares insight on what's typical about unschooling days - and what's the problem with trying to find a formula or someone else's day to duplicate. Plus she's sharing 3 secrets successful unschoolers know! Now you'll know too!

So many people struggle with deschooling. It's probably less about doing it "right" or "wrong" and more about recognizing that it's not a one-and-done kind of thing. We're in a hurry to get on with it, right?

This Unschooling Mom2Mom podcast is all about REALLY examining deschooling.
Can you do it in a week or a month and then plug the kids into an, albeit modified, version of school (traditional homeschooling)?
Or is this the source of all that frustration you may be having lately?

Let me know what you think!
