[quote=Anonymous]We have one child who entered K this year. It's been a rough start and we are considering home schooling. She went to daycare/preschool at a great place, did incredibly well there, but I don't know if it's just the teacher isn't a good fit or that it's a new place/environment. I did teach years ago, so I don't think that would be an issue. We considered having her go back to the private school where she was in daycare/preschool, but it would be better for us financially if we homeschooled (I can work part-time in the evening after DH gets home). But, a friend from college was home schooled in rural PA and it was blatantly obvious she had issues being and interacting with people in general. Now being the in DC area as long as you take part in groups and get your child around other children, you'll be fine. If we were going to homeschool we have an extra room in the basement - that would be turned into the classroom. When we're in that room I'm the teacher. Outside the room back to mom (even if we're taking a trip relating to school). You also need to have some $$ to invest in supplies/books/etc. Pinterest is also great for activities.[/quote]
