I'm an UNSCHOOLER.

That test was fun! Which one are you Dannielle?

Mr. Potato Head You have your ideal of how things should look, but youre flexible enough to allow for change. You are not bothered by changing methods, mid-course if necessary. You use an eclectic combination of curriculum sources. Visit my blog: Guilt-Free Homeschooling


This is us... perfectly. :)

I'm another Mr. Potato Head. Answering some of the questions kind of made me WISH I was an unschooler though - that sounds like so much fun. (like the one about mud - my answer was everyone strip down and we'd hose off when we got home - but I wished it was learning about brickmaking or whatever). Fact is though - I'm not structured enough to get everything done - I'd go CRAZY worrying about everything. It's just not in my nature to be free spirited I suppose.

I guess it's offical! LOL I'm an unschooler

Salvador Dali Melting clocks are not a problem in your reality. You are an unschooler. You will tolerate a textbook, but only as a last resort. Mud is your friend. You prefer hands-on everything. If your school had an anthem, it would be Dont Worry, Be Happy.

This fits us more or less

Swiss Family Robinson If you can grow it, pick it, preserve it, or butcher it, you own it. Otherwise, you do without. Youd prefer to live off-grid from the power company, since youre nearly self-sufficient already. You enjoy unit studies for the way they utilize all facets of life and truly incorporate life and education as a whole, not as separate entities.


I'd love to travel but dh can't handle it very well, and some things I'd like to do better, but can't right now.

(yes, I do have guilt...)

I am also a Mr. Potato Head, but I think by reading all of the possibilities I could say i am also an unschooler. I so love hands on!!!! That is how I learned, but I do want a bit of structure (meaning a few worksheets or a general guideline to follow)!!!

Again, not always an appropriate answer but

Unschooler.

I do think Mr. Potato Head would have been closer to correct though.

Did ya really need to ask? LOL!


Martha Stewart No project is simple for you, everything is very involved; lace, ruffles, and flowers make it a good thing. Your curriculum is heavy on fine arts: art appreciation/recognition, historical architecture, music, creative writing, and literary classics. If your students absorb a little math and science along the way, so much the better

although, truth be told, I'm much more into wool and raffia instead of lace and ruffles. :p

:thumbsup:

Unschooler. And that makes me soooo happy! :cuc:

Mine fits us perfectly except for the Bible part (although we will be reading from it this year at breakfast):

Abraham Lincoln You have a Bible and a library card what more could you possibly need? You prefer the Charlotte Mason Method of reading living books for everything: historical fiction, biographies, real histories, nature guides, etc. No soon-to-be-outdated textbooks for you.

I'm an unschooler, which I find particularly funny as I am a former public school teacher wanting to go Montessori:D We don't "homeschool" at the moment, but I answered the way I hope I'd be if I got to homeschool!

That's not funny, that's COOL! :thumbsup:

Unschooler here too.

The first question about mud just happened last week. LOL.

Katie

it said unschooler, although I lean way more toward eclectic with an emphasis on fine arts...

DITTO!

Mine said the same thing, and I feel the *same* way as you!

Abraham Lincoln? Hmm..... Well, we do read about everything.... But I'm not even sure we have a Bible...

unschoolers, not surprise there.

We had the mud thing twice last week. I thought my mom's head was going to explode LOL

we're "unschoolers" according to the quiz but as much as I'd like to be that in reality it scares me. I don't think I have life together enough. hence my purchase of allison's curriculum.

Of course, my elder child is only 3.75, so I could (in theory) get it together between now and kinder age. :D
