Epilogue
Shortly thereafter, we moved to Texas (not for homeschool reasons, but Texas does appear to be one of the states with the least restrictions on homeschooling) where we have started to homeschool Ryan and we’re taking it one step at a time – and just taking informal checks against the public school progress we notice that he is above level in reading, which gives us assurance that we are not under- teaching.
Right now, we are currently teaching Ryan with materials we created on our site as well as those found at teaching materials stores such as Lakeshore Learning and stuff on the Internet. At the same time, we are carefully reviewing formal curriculum that we will use going forward (more on that one later!) to give Ryan a more consistent learning experience. And yes, we have days when Ryan just doesn’t want to study or sometimes things come up where we don’t have the time to teach him within our expected schedule, but I believe these are all things that can be smoothed out as we become more knowledgeable about not only what, but how Ryan wants to learn.
So at this point, some of you may be wondering what happened to Lauren. Did we decide to keep her in public school or pull her out as well (especially given that she’s Ryan’s twin)? Well, that’s going to be answered in a future article titled, “Is Homeschool Right for Your Child?” Stay tuned!
