“Education is an evolutionary process. Since no discipline and the scholarship of that discipline, is absolute, there is much room for growth and improvement in every field of human endeavor; mathematics, biology, chemistry, science, technology, geopolitics.
Everything is evolving. But the educational system is not. It is stagnant.”

The Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan, the
Final Call, May 7, 2013


“The great thing about homeschooling is that you have the freedom to teach however you want to teach. And you can change your methods and curriculum whenever you want. Even if it is in the middle of the school year.
If it isn’t working, move onto something new. One thing that can give you a concrete foundation is your core beliefs in how you believe your children learn best.
In homeschooling, it doesn’t matter what kind of homeschooler you are. It doesn’t matter what curriculum you use. Because as a homeschooler, you are doing what is best for your child.”
Quote from: Kari Wilcher, Homeschool Writer


1) Is it comprehensive? Or is it surface?

2) Does it teach what you want to teach?

3) Does it fit your child’s learning style?

4) And most importantly, Do you like it?
Or do you like it simply because your friend likes it?

“When you meet another homeschooler, some of the first questions asked are, “What curriculum do you use and what kind of homeschooler are you? To new homeschoolers, this can be completely overwhelming and finding your options can literally drown you in information. I know that there are a lot of moms that are just like me. I began researching homeschooling, and how to do it, while I was pregnant with my first child. I was still teaching in a public school at the time, but I knew one day that I would have the blessing of homeschooling my kids.


I am a first generation homeschooler so I had no idea that there are actual methods and theories about teaching your child at home. Almost 5 years later, I a still trying to define what kind of homeschooler I am.
Before you google your eyes out, turn off your computer and sit down and write out everything you believe about education. This is your mission statement; it will become your foundation for all of the choices you will make.”
What Kind of Homeschooler are You?
May 9, 2013 www.curriculumchoice.com


Write down everything you believe about education.

Then write down how you believe your children learn.

And lastly, write down how you think learning is assessed.

This mission statement will become the foundation for all of the choices you will make.

“The American people and Black people in particular, need a new educational experience. That new educational experience must start with the most priceless and precious of all knowledge, which is the knowledge of self and the knowledge of God.”

“When you deny God in the educational process, you deny the respect and honor that is due to the real Head Master or Chancellor of all education. So this disrespect of the
Creator that is found in the public school education has led now to a break down in respect for teachers; in respect for parents; in respect for law and order in this society.”
