[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's not an 8-4 day -- Middle school is 8:45-4:00. Can't imagine K-4 day would be longer. [/quote] A homeschool day can look very different. The day can start with breakfast on the porch reading a newspaper, and then a walk to collect bugs. We may pack a picnic and then meet friends at the creek, where the have fun discussing Harry potter. The afternoon can be a trip to a the newest exhibit at a Smithsonian. We will finally get to "school" at 4 PM, so DF can be at the kitchen table while I make dinner and catch up on chores. In other words, the "school" stress is minimal because the school day is short. That's not always true but generally homeschooled students spend less time to get the work done. Your teacher is your parent so it's not stressful. Even if you get 60% on a test, you know you will pass the grade. The BASIS model is different and many students do not pass.[/quote]
