People often ask me what it is like to be home educated so I thought I would let you have a peek into my ’school’ day to see what I do.
I have never been to school as a student. When I was little my big sister helped my mum to teach me to read and write using the ACE Curriculum. This is a Christian based curriculum and not only teaches the subjects, but teaches character, and Biblical principles, as well as how to set goals and how to research and study for myself. Now, some days, I help my mum teach my little brothers!!
I spend my mornings sitting at my desk at my bedroom window that looks out over the fields. I work on my academic subjects there, both written and on the computer.
My favourite subject is science. I am studying Physical Science, Bible and Science, and Creation Science. I am also studying English and Maths and preparing to take the Adult Literacy and Numeracy tests when I am 14. Other subjects I do are Collectivism, Etymology, Speech, West African Agriculture, and Successful Living. Last year I studied Child Development and British Sign Language and hope to start a more in-depth course in sign language soon.
