The more I explore my mysterious son the more I learn he has a whole world he wants to share with me. Both my husband and I are very verbal, whereas our son's primary language seems to be physical. His secondary language seems to be music and sound, and spoken English squeaks in somewhere around maybe 5th or 6th. So as the spoken word is not his primary language. I need to adjust how and what I teach in a way that supports the way he interacts with the world. So how does the rubber hit the road? This means we do NOT have a beautiful homeschooling room with a million YouTube views. We do NOT have vintage school desks to sit politely at, nor are there Ikea cubes stuffed with books and curriculum. This is not to say we don't share our bedtimes snuggled up with Beatrix Potter. But, Mr. Toad has never been as fun or engaging as a trip to the reptile garden to touch a toad.
I don't have everything figured out yet
and I would love advice from the travelers
who have been down this path before.
The weather in South Dakota is finally
becoming nice enough to spend time outside
with our bicycle and going on walking
and hiking trails. I am looking forward
to enjoying all the sunshine and new things
that spring has to teach us both.
