I am asked pretty regularly if we homeschool or send our kids to public school. The answer is yes.
To both.
We send our oldest two boys to our local public school. A very good school within walking distance of our house.
But when they are at home, I am always looking for creative ways to reinfoce what they are learning at school and provide more art, music and literature in their day. We also keep a blackboard wall of questions that come up. And then on the weekends or free time, we follow up on those questions.
As a grand daughter of two amazing school teachers, I realize the importance of a free public education. I also know that mamas who homeschooler are a wealth of knowlege and full of ideas on how to make learning interesting.
