But what makes confidence? How is it acquired? It doesn't materialize out of thin air.

One consequence of homeschooling's growing popularity is the rich variety of homeschooling curricula available today.

The turning of the year is a time when we reflect on our lives and make resolutions about positive changes we'd like to make in the coming year. For homeschoolers, self-reflection on our homeschooling is integral to successful home education.

Have you ever wanted to photocopy a few pages out of a teacher's manual to use at home with your kids but wondered if doing so was ethical? Or wanted to scan a chapter from a work of literature to share with your co-op students but weren't sure if doing so violated any copyrights?

As a homeschooling parent, your local library can be one of your most valuable resources.

Don't think in terms of "How long is the school day?" Rather, think about time on task.
