schoolingthrough a method thathas positive effect on
2. Helping one another Family bonding Individual Attention A
good education Freedom to Diversity Learning at their own pace
Social Adjustment Being who we really are Socialization
3. Helping one another According to a mother whom homeschools
her children, it is helpful to have children who are at different
academic levels In this way, the older child can help in teaching
the younger child while refreshing the ideas and concepts that they
learned at that age This will give them the ability to also
interact with their siblings
4. Individual Attention The parent can provide their children
with individual and one-on-one time everyday, where as, public
educated children have a ratio of usually 24-1 The parent can have
the children excel in their academic strengths and overcome their
difficulties
5. The parents along with their children can help build a
curriculum that best fits their childs needs, not state required
needs for a group of children The schedule can be adapted to the
child and parents needs and wants
6. Social Adjustment and Socialization Some states allow
homeschooled children to participate in the after school activities
and sports Social Adjustments can include getting together with
other children for play dates
7. Family Bonding The bond can grow between a child and parent
when they spend this much time together Children respect their
parent as a parent and a teacher They spend time with their
siblings and tend to get along with them better
8. A Good Education Overall, their education is well-rounded
and personalized to what they need According to the National Home
Education Research Institute, homeschooled students score 15-20
points higher than public school students on standardized
tests
9. Learning at Their Own Pace Sometimes teachers in public
school just complete what the state requires of them Children can
get lost in the shuffle of trying to get all the requirements
covered At home, the children can learn at their own pace and take
the time they need in order to expand on concepts they do not
understand completely
10. Being Who We Really Are A child can undergo a lot of peer
pressure while in public schools that sometimes cannot always be
observed by teachers and/or reported by students There are a lot of
stereotypes for students in some schools
11. An unsupportive family Teaching several levels at once
Isolation/Loneliness Socialization A pressure to succeed Sports at
school Being together 24/7 (being Not a qualified teacher truly
dedicated) The childs choice
12. An Unsupportive Family Family members may feel as though
you are hurting your child by not enrolling them in a public school
system Some homeschooled families receive ridicule about their ways
If children are perceived as smart by family members, they think
that the child needs to be placed into public schooling; however,
couldnt it be the parents who help make that child smart ?
13. This can be through the child and/or the parents (teachers)
Parents are forced to devote their lives to their children through
teaching them You may not receive a lot of support and
encouragement for the teaching you do Isolation/Loneliness
14. As a teacher/parent, you have pressure on you to succeed
and prove to others that homeschooling really does work! Dealing
with the fact that everyone will not agree with what you are doing
Getting stressed out and not taking it out on your children
15. Not A Qualified Teacher Some parents are not completely
qualified to teach their children Some of them do not even have a
college level education Some of the environments at home reflect
this...some children are yelled at for not getting the correct
answer, etc. Taking in a lot of verbal abuse
16. Teaching Several Levels At Once Parents feel overwhelmed to
have to teach several levels of school at once and in one day The
children can struggle because they have to wait to ask question
until their parent is finished with what their sibling is learning
Some studies showed that parents buy curriculums off of the
internet in order to help with teaching several levels
17. Socialization They do not receive the socialization at home
that they would in a public school The children are only exposed to
their siblings and family members If the children are exposed to
other children with play dates, they are usually other homeschooled
children
18. Sports At School Some states say that Homeschooled children
cannot participate in sports and athletics at pubic schools In this
way, it could lead to a social issue because a lot of children at
public schools meet their friends when they both participated in a
sport together
19. Being Together 24/7 Teachers (parents) have to be with
their children 24/7 Most parents that homeschool are also stay at
home mothers This means that you are with your children everyday
acting both as their teacher and as their parent This could lead to
some resentment because they are forced to be at home with them
24/7 Sometimes parents and children both need a break and some
breathing room! Parents will be forced to dedicate themselves to
their teaching and have to
20. Their Choice Some homeschooled children may want to be
placed in public schools and not be forced to be taught at home by
their parent Their parents teaching methods might not be working
for the way that they learn (may be non-energetic, boring, and
stern in their teaching ways) They may want to participate in
sports at school They may want to experience pubic schools for
themselves
21. Conclusion*Homeschooling can have a lot of negatives
andpositive to it, but so can public schools.*It really just
depends on the parents and theirfamily on how they ultimately want
to raise theirchildren
