I think it would be AMAZING to come visit Dourdan and the Cathedral of Chartres and to visit with you! :)<br />I think your idea is wonderful and very true, there is lots of open time now! LOl. I will talk with Noah and Jon. It would be nice if we could travel. Thank you Sylvie for you caring words. xoxoxoxoxoxoxoLaurenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05093968853372697053noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9902677.post-34072993753909061372015-11-14T10:24:34.229-05:002015-11-14T10:24:34.229-05:00Hi Lauren!
I read this post and I saw the words &...Hi Lauren!<br /><br />I read this post and I saw the words " Which country do you want to see more of? " and " Noah wanted to learn more about the Medieval Period". <br />As Mae wrote, the best part of this experience is that you are free... Free to not do "school at home". And you are happy to experience interest-based learning with Noah... So I came to this conclusion : what about build / plan / manage a field trip in ... France ? ;-)<br />If you stop in your little town Dourdan, you can discover a real Medieval Castle (Philippe Auguste, 12th century). Not far from Dourdan, there is the well-known cathedral of Chartres. Of course, there is Paris too... And there are a lot of things to discover in France... I could give you some advices... <br />(Moreover, this field trip sould be less expensive than a year tuition at this wonderfull school... If Noah plans to come back to school next year, you have to plan this this year! )<br />Please consider this comment as a real invitation.<br />Sorry, my English is become very low... ;-)<br />SylvieSylviehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14098680447340900392noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9902677.post-31283475036044710952015-10-31T11:45:49.741-04:002015-10-31T11:45:49.741-04:00Thank you Mae!

Now, it's all about "interest-based learning". What a difference! I've completely thrown out the typical homeschooling mentality (which is just "school at home") and my daughter is thriving. If you were to ask for my input, I would say to you that there's no rush. If you're open to whatever is best for him, then you will find what that is! Everything will be OK. One thing I've noticed is that there is always a detox period after a child leaves pubic/private school and learns at home (for the child AND the parent). Breathe! :) -MaeAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
