Becoming a Model Learner on Heart and Soul

One of the things I've loved about homeschooling is the chance to learn alongside my kids. I've learned plenty of new things, I've been reminded of things I learned long ago, and I've relearned things in new and better ways. That willingness to keep learning is something it seems most homeschool moms have in common.

A good education includes teaching our kids how to learn. And anything we want to teach, we must first learn ourselves. Does that mean we have to become experts in all subject areas to at least the high school level before we can teach our kids? No, we don't need to know all the facts and formulas and techniques. As moms, we need to learn how to learn, because that is what we'll be modeling for our kids. 

To teach is to learn twice over. ~Joseph Joubert

Join me over at Heart and Soul for more about setting an example of lifelong learning, and being willing to learn alongside your kids. I also share a little about how figuring out a creative way to teach something to our kids can help us learn, and how our positive attitude and enthusiasm for learning and knowledge can impact our students.

He who dares to teach must never cease to learn. ~Richard Henry Dann
