<\/div>

Are you looking to homeschool your child? That\u2019s great! Before you start, however, there are a few things to know about homeschooling, from researching your state\u2019s homeschool requirements to understanding that you really are capable of homeschooling your child.<\/p>\n

What to Know About Homeschooling<\/h2>\n

Here are just ten things to know about homeschooling before you start. We wish you and your family all the best on your journey!<\/p>\n

1. You Are Already Homeschooling!<\/h3>\n

Did you teach your child how to talk? How to tie their shoes? How to ride a bike? Congrats, you are officially a homeschool parent.<\/p>\n

\u201cWait a minute,\u201d you might say. \u201cThat\u2019s not at all the same thing as teaching my child upper-level math and science!\u201d<\/p>\n

But why not? Sure, these subjects or others might seem daunting, but with the right curriculum and weekly support from other homeschool parents in community<\/span>, you can teach your child anything<\/a>\u2014just like you taught them to tie their shoes.<\/p>\n

By teaching your child subjects like math, science, history, and English, you are simply continuing the education you have already begun giving them.<\/p>\n

You\u2019re Their First Teacher.<\/p>\n

Be Their Best Teacher.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

2. Research Your State Requirements<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Since laws regarding homeschooling vary by state, what homeschoolers must do to succeed can get confusing. Some states are highly selective in their standards; others are more relaxed. It\u2019s important to be aware of your state\u2019s homeschooling requirements so that you don\u2019t run into any issues down the road.<\/p>\n

To learn about your state\u2019s rules, visit HSLDA\u2019s Homeschool Laws by State<\/a>, which conveniently breaks down each state\u2019s requirements with an interactive map.<\/p>\n

3. Although Difficult, Homeschooling Is Doable<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Homeschooling is a voyage, but that doesn\u2019t mean it will always be smooth sailing. Expect obstacles along the way. There will be moments you doubt yourself and think there is no way to succeed in this endeavor.<\/p>\n

Classical Conversations\u00ae<\/sup> helps make the homeschool journey doable by equipping parents with resources, an easy-to-follow curriculum, and support from a local community. But no matter what program your family chooses, you will still encounter life\u2019s storms\u2014so be prepared.<\/p>\n

Trust God. Trust your instincts. Trust your friends\u2019 guidance. Trust the homeschool process. Trust your curriculum. And before you know it, you\u2019ll soon be at your journey\u2019s end, having successfully prepared your student not just for college and a career but for all areas of life.<\/p>\n

4. Home School is not Lone School<\/span>
\n<\/strong><\/h3>\n

How can your child possibly thrive socially without being in traditional school?<\/p>\n

Homeschooling offers the best kind of socialization because it allows children to interact with people of all ages. <\/span><\/div>\n

There are many options out there for homeschoolers to socialize while learning, from homeschool co-ops to our own Classical Conversations Christian communities, where local families meet one day a week to learn together and do life together. This provides guidance and accountability for our parents and allows our students to socialize with each other, often leading to friendships that extend beyond our weekly Community Day.<\/p>\n

And, of course, there are always sports teams, art and fitness classes, book clubs, scouting organizations, and youth groups that your child can join to boost their social skills.<\/p>\n

5. Not All Homeschooling Is Schooling at Home<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Although your home will likely be your learning HQ, homeschooling doesn\u2019t have to take place there all the time.<\/p>\n

In fact, there are many opportunities to study subjects you are already learning outside of the home. For example, you can study earth science at a local park, history at your state museum, and math during a grocery shopping trip. Although books are powerful resources, remember to train your children to learn from all aspects of life.<\/p>\n

So don\u2019t be afraid to take advantage of the wonderful flexibility of all the \u201cfield trips\u201d available to homeschooling!<\/p>\n

6. You Own the Decisions <\/span>
\n<\/strong><\/h3>\n

If you choose to homeschool, this means you are in charge of your child\u2019s education\u2014no one else. This might seem overwhelming, but it can also be liberating, equipped with a trusted curriculum and the guidance of other homeschool parents.<\/p>\n

Is a certain textbook not working for your family? Switch it out for something else. Does your child need more time to grasp a concept? Spend more time and attention when needed. Don\u2019t want to teach math that way? There are other options.<\/p>\n

One of the great joys of homeschooling is that it allows you to tailor your child\u2019s education to best suit your family\u2019s needs, goals, and values.<\/p>\n

7. Rushing Your Child\u2019s Learning Won\u2019t Help<\/strong><\/h3>\n

One of the limitations of traditional schooling is that many students end up moving on to the next grade level before they are ready. Fortunately, homeschooling allows children to learn at their own pace. Conveyor belts work well for assembly of products. They don\u2019t work well for children. <\/span>So try not to fret if your child isn\u2019t understanding a certain math concept or isn\u2019t able to memorize dates on the historical timeline \u201cas quickly as other children\u201d or \u201cas is typical for their age.\u201d With just a little more patience, often a switch will go off in their brains, and they\u2019ll suddenly understand whatever it was they were previously struggling to learn.<\/p>\n

8. You Might Not Get It All Done Every Day<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Homeschool parents never lack for things to do. For instance, sometimes a science lesson leads to a multi-hour investigation of all living things in the backyard. As a new homeschool parent, be prepared for days you don\u2019t finish everything you planned. There will be times you have to carry subjects over to the next day, or maybe even the day after that.<\/p>\n

Of course, you don\u2019t want to put everything off to the next day, but don\u2019t feel guilty if you didn\u2019t have time to read English Epic Poetry<\/em><\/a> or work through The Math Map<\/a>. You can get to these tomorrow. Now, if you find yourself repeatedly struggling to stay on track day after day, consult a fellow homeschool parent in your local community for advice, or see if your curriculum provides a day-by-day schedule for the academic year.<\/p>\n

9. You\u2019ll Reclaim Your Own Education<\/strong><\/h3>\n

At Classical Conversations, we often say that parents reclaim their own education when they homeschool their children. Obviously, the focus of homeschooling is to teach your child, but that doesn\u2019t mean you can\u2019t learn right along with them! Whether it\u2019s a less familiar subject or one you majored in at college, you\u2019ll certainly relearn forgotten bits of information and discover completely new ones. This makes homeschooling even more rewarding, as both you and your child participate as students together.<\/p>\n

10. You Can Homeschool Your Child<\/strong><\/h3>\n

God trust parents with their children, and so should we.<\/p>\n

For many parents considering homeschooling, the final obstacle to becoming their child\u2019s best teacher is the fear that they aren\u2019t qualified. If you can relate, know that you are enough. All you need are a few tools under your belt for the journey ahead\u2014tools like a proven educational method, a curriculum that suits your family, helpful resources, and accountability from other homeschool parents.<\/p>\n

Whether you choose to homeschool with Classical Conversations or not, these are tools every homeschool parent needs. And with them, you can homeschool your child.<\/p>\n

You\u2019ve Got This, We\u2019ve Got You<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

There\u2019s More to Know About Homeschooling<\/strong><\/h2>\n

For parents completely new to the world of homeschooling, there is a lot to figure out before even getting started on the journey.
