[quote=Anonymous]It depends a lot on your daughter and you:what type of homeschooling you’re planning to do, what curriculum you’ll use, how you are as a teacher, how your daughter responds to the way you teach. I have 1 kid who I homeschooled for k due to covid and I feel he also would’ve probably done absolutely fine w homeschooling in 1st too bc he is advanced both academically and socially and he is an independent worker/learner…he does well w doing assignments on his own and understands most concepts quickly. He listens to me and follows directions. Now I have another child who is currently in 1st grade and I don’t think she’d do as well w it. She needs more guidance and an experienced teacher and solid curriculum I think. She’s very smart but she’s just not as attuned to the typical school environment and (this is a big thing) she doesn’t do as well w me as a teacher…she just doesn’t seem to listen as much to me as she would to an actual teacher. I feel like she and I would really struggle if I tried to homeschool her. And I dont think she’d learn as much. She needs a more structured environment and is not much of a “self starter” like my oldest.[/quote]
