RE: A typical homeschool lesson, with Bob Dylan
Most people will never understand that you can teach without making it lectureY.
Good on you for having real conversations with your children!
Peace!!

Thanks @em3 . Yes, it's something that a lot of teachers don’t understand - that their main job is to raise and answer questions, but most importantly, not to put children off learning.
Learning is something everyone does naturally, from the time we're born - hopefully for the rest of our lives. The idea that 'education' starts and ends at a certain age, between this and that hour is quite unhelpful in many ways.
Saying that, there seem to be some good advances in schooling in some places - particularly in Finland. From what I hear, they have scrapped subjects and tests and extended playtime to the whole day - and now have some of the most successful schools in the world.
