About this item

Every parent who homeschools their child should read this book. The author shares with parent educators what she has learned from her 25 plus years of experience as a teacher and trainer of teachers. "We must balance what we teach with how children learn." Recent research on how the brain works has given us great insight into how children actually learn. It's not enough to simply pick a good curriculum or write great lesson plans. Much of the information shared in this book is information that most parent educators and traditional classroom teachers do not know. In part due to the fact that many educators perceive brain research to be "over their head" and the fact that neuroscience, psychology and education research is constantly uncovering information about how we learn.
