Raising a Self-Led Learner (Kenna Dyches)
Parents dream of self-led learners in their homeschool—children pursuing their own education with internal drive and dedication. And while I recognize that the parent is only one part of the learning equation, there are things that fall under our control as parents that can really make a difference where self-led learning is concerned. Join me as we discuss what we can do to create a home culture and family culture that inspire self-led learning.
A Day in the Life of a TJEd Family (Kenna Dyches)
“Classics, not textbooks. Time, not content. Inspire, not require.” These are educational principles taught in the Thomas Jefferson Education (TJEd) philosophy, also called Leadership Education. But what does it look like in a homeschool home? In this section of the Day in the Life series, I will present to you our family’s way of applying Leadership Education in our home – from when they were all small, to when they were mixed ages, to the present moment when I only have teenagers in my home. If you have questions, bring them! This homeschool journey has been one filled with growth and joy for us as a family, and I’m happy to share our experience with you.
