How to Homeschool Multiple Children

How do I homeschool multiple children? is definitely one of the most common questions I hear.

The struggle is real, my friend.

Homeschooling multiple children – at multiple ages, with multiple preferences and talents – can be the definition of burn-out.  Often, juggling lots of kids means feeling spread too thin, and wondering whether any child is getting “enough.”  This episode is all about the logistics of homeschooling with multiple children.  Zara talks about:

• The one tactic of Minimalist Homeschooling that is critical when homeschooling multiple ages,
• How to keep distracting little ones from completely de-railing the day,
• The best time to homeschool,
• Examples for teaching the same subject to all children at multiple levels,
• The distinction between teaching time, versus independent learning,
• Methods to avoid burn-out,
• The types of curricula that work well (or don’t), and
• How to raise little ones who ask to start their own education.

Remember, as with all of parenting, once you think you have it figured out, everything will change again!  It’s great to have some tried and true short-cuts from a homeschooling mother of 4 to navigate what will work for your family during this season.  Enjoy!
