Lots of thought is good.
Any particular worries, fears, problems you might want to discuss? In my experience, the things people worry about re: homeschooling are often no problem at all, but things they never even considered as a problem wind up being really hard! Talking specifics might help you, maybe?
Gosh, where to begin
. I think one of the biggest questions I have right now is how to figure out how DS learns, if that makes any sense. I have my thoughts on it, but since he's just sort of coasted along in school, I'm not sure that I have a clear understanding of what works for him and what doesn't. For example - I do know that he doesn't need a lot of repetition, he's quick. He's easily frustrated if he doesn't get something the first time around, but we knew that was going to be a problem and are working on it. He doesn't seem to mind worksheet type work, but hates 'research' type things. I think that he's a do it, get it done, and move on type - he doesn't care to do long, drawn out projects.
But see, even with this info, I don't know if it's helpful in determining what's a good fit for DS. LOL, what I really need is someone who has taught DS when he was actually learning something to say "hey, this is what I observed". I know it must seem like I don't know my kid or something - I'm just not sure I fully understand how his mind works. UGH, I feel like I'm not making any sense.
Have to cut this short for now, but I'll be back. Thanks.
