Welcome to the Verity Ed Philosopher’s Cafe! In these videos, I take a little time to share more of the philosophy of education and culture and a little less of the “how do I do this?” This Cafe is where I drink coffee or something and just wonder with you.

MY FREE RESOURCES FOR HOME SCHOOLING:
Free eBook: Outside the Box: Reclaiming Education at Home https://www.verityed.com/free-ebook-outside-the-box-reclaiming-education-at-home
This book outlines what it takes to make and keep a life-long learning lifestyle for your family. I’ll discuss why you should homeschool and the 5 simple tweaks you can make to transform your family’s home culture. To save you some hard-knock lessons, I’ll also share 3 pitfalls to avoid and key considerations when designing or choosing your child’s curriculum. More broadly, this book is about one basic truth: The hours are long, but the years are short.
Free Resource: 4 Home School Methods
https://www.verityed.com/free-epamphlet-4-home-school-methods
Finding the right home schooling style for your family sets you up for home school success. There are several home schooling "philosophies" that can help you narrow your curriculum options and think about what lifestyle you want for your family. These “schools of thought” overlap in many ways and at different points in a child’s development, so any one of them -- done well! -- can provide a solid education. How to choose? Check out my free resource to find out more.
