We’ve homeschooled our son for the last three years. Going great so far. My wife’s a teacher so that helps.

That’s fantastic. My voice teacher home schools her kids and she says it’s fantastic.Where I come from, the school system is not that great, I am all for homeschooling. I have to tutor kids from public schools in order to teach what is not being taught in the classroom. Anyway, there are coops for homeschoolers to get together with other homeschooled children. I’m sure in the town or city you live in. Inquire from the Chamber of Commerce in your state and they can let you know . Also, I teach piano as well as singing to homeschoolers, and they learn a lot more than they do in a school setting.The test scores are much more higher, which is fantastic. I teach university level and I’ve noticed that homeschoolers very much excel in a lot of subjects,than most of those who attended public and private schools which is great!:O) After all learning starts at home. :O) Also, the socialization for homeschoolers is great, in my opinion. :O) Most people think that they have no social life, and that’s wrong. That’s why there is coop with other homeschoolers.

Yes, the family life network is awesome. They provide great information. They link you up with other parents too!

Do a search for web sites for home schooling. Better yet look in your area for other women that home school and work with them.
I have two daughters that are home schooling and it was the best thing in the world for them.
Your daughter might check with Mother Seaton Home school for advice and etc etc. they are in west virigina . I am sure if she did a search . She would find it.

Homeschooling is a great idea, but it is very hard to do. You need to get your daughter connected with others who homeschool. Then they can work together to find materials, and they can get together so the kids will still develop the social skills needed.

(it says theey exceeded their bamdwidth so try later) It worked when I first clicked on it.
There is also a wonderful booklet from The Natural child project (above) on homeschooling.
Definantly have her explore Homeschool groups(usually through Yahoo groups or the like) in her area. They do field trips and have play groups so the kids can still get the benefit of friendships. Also check the YMCA’s for Homeshool hours at the gymnasiums. They have P.E. time only for homeschoolers at the rec center where I am from.

Best of luck to you and her!!

I don’t understand what makes parents think that they are somehow better qualified to teach their children than, you know, someone with a TEACHING degree. Homeschooling is a crock.
