Oh my goodness! This is why we homeschool our little boy. The school spent so much time and energy trying to convince us and label him, they let an entire year slip by without nurturing his ability to read when none of the other children in the class could read. Oh, the sleepless nights of worry we had! Now we school at home and our days are filled with joy, discoveries and progress. Thank you for posting this little film. It really touched my heart.

This is a wonderful little video. I think that traditional schools are on their way out and home school will be the way of the future....that would be so wonderful!

Happy Valentine's Day a little late!

This is the beauty of successful homeschooling. What a great lesson-story. Thanks for sharing.

This was so touching!

That should be a part of every teacher's education! Polly was very dear to share it with you and thank you for sharing it with us.

Just loved yesterday's photo!

Ahh - very well put. We've chosen to homeschool our two girls for these exact reasons!

Posted by: Candace | 14/02/2008 at 02:09 PM

Yes, very true. Too many of us failed to shine at school because of the need to fit into others' parameters. Have you been watching 'Make your child brilliant' with Bernadette Tynan? At last an expert addressing some of these issues - it's well worth a watch.

ahhh, so true. There is a message in this for all of us.
Ali, thinking of you and your precious Finley.
