Learning All The Time
by John Holt

This delightful book by the influential author of How Children Fail and How Children Learn shows how children learn to read, write, and count in their everyday life at home and how adults can respect and encourage this wonderful process.

The object of teaching a child is to enable the child to get along without the teacher. We need to educate our children for their future, not our past.

This group was founded in 1989 with two main goals. The first was to provide social, educational and athletic activities for our children. The second was to establish a peer support system for home schooling parents in Staunton, Waynesboro and Augusta County. We currently offer regular support group meetings, monthly newsletters, an Activity Day, a teen group, and a wide variety of field trips.

For The Children’s Sake
Foundations of Education for Home and School
by Susan Schaeffer Macaulay
|
|
A book about what education can be--for your child, in your home, and in your school. It is based first on a Christian understanding of what it means to be human--to be a child, a parent, a teacher--and on the Christian meaning of life. At the same time it is deeply practical.
