Unschooling or Child Directed:
Parents who choose an Unschooling or Child Directed teaching style base their approach on the interests and natural learning patterns of their individual child. This style avoids use of textbooks, reviewing, quizzing, or even formal testing. The child’s natural curiosity and interests are the key to the daily activities. There is a large emphasis on imagination, nature, art, music and almost no formal curriculum is used. There is no use of lesson plans, a defined “school” time, or even any type of grading. The child’s environment, though controlled, is used as the bases of learning. A great curriculum choice for this type of teaching style is Unit Studies. Unit Studies allow the child’s interests to control the basis of study. this bit made me laugh a bit though!
well, i didn’t say the quiz was any good, and haven’t looked at the rest of the site!!
