HOW DO KIDS TRANSITION FROM SCHOOL TO HOMESCHOOL?
Often kids are excited to try out homeschooling, even when the adults are nervous. Children seem to thrive in a home environment. However, the longer the child has been in school, the longer it takes to transition to a home learning style. Often children need a “down” time when first coming home. Time to relax, adjust and think. Just spend time on field trips, talking, visiting the library, connecting, or just reading together. Be patient. You’ll soon see your child regain his/her love of learning. Some children need more structure and some need less. You need to remain flexible and try to find the right balance.
