Teach Your Own helped launch the homeschooling movement; now, its timeless and revolutionary message of recognizing the ways children come to understand the world has been updated for today’s environment. Parents and caregivers will discover how to navigate:
- Learning in a classroom versus learning in the world
- The difference between a learning difficulty (which we all experience every time we try to learn anything) and a learning disability.
- Schedules that achieve the homeschooling-work-life balance that you want as a family
- The relationship between learning and play
- Homeschooling and technology
- And much more.
John Holt’s warm understanding of children and his passionate belief in every child’s ability to learn have made this book an essential resource for over forty years to homeschooling families.
