Profile Information
- what does "radical unschooling" mean to you?
- Radical Unschooling is trusting in your children's curiosity and creativity and yearnings...in such a way that they'll naturally learn all about this world that we live in...and this vast universe in which we all reside. (When asked by strangers...I often reply...."It's kinda like home-schooling...only without the net!" )....and it's definitely learning without the barriers/walls of a school...and with the innocence of children...and without the preconceived notions, prejudice, dogma, etc. that one might encounter in traditional institutions such as schools.
- how long have you been unschooling or homeschooling?
- Amy and Lily have never gone to school...and we've been unschooling them pretty much from the beginning.
(Their "beginnings", at least.)
- names and ages of children
- Amy (9)
Lily (5)
- a little about me
- Here's a video of Amy (9) singing with my full horn-band ("Nite Train with the High Voltage Horns"!)!!
Lotsa FUN!!! :)

- Hi Ken,
Yeah we went on the apple picking trip. It was fun being on the farm during such a beautiful day! Jasmine and Salem had a great time. I'm still new to all this techno stuff. I need to get some pictures up. Hope to see you soon. Sharon
