Me and Hermione chatting about why she likes home Ed. Well done to everyone who got the school places they wanted!

Our thoughts on living through lockdown #2 as home educators

My ramblings about home schooling vs home educating during the lock down and covid 19 crisis. Would love to know if anyone has decided not to send the kids back in September. Get in touch [email protected] find us on Facebook @raisingawookie and on insta @caz4500 😁

Just a little update in these crazy covid times... stay safe everyone

When we were in the midst of Covid - 19 and all the Schools closed...

A rough idea of how we plan our year.  For the full video version head over to youtube - Raising a Wookie but be warned its me waffling for a good 30 mins ha ha!  Sorry this podcast isn't a bit more padded not feeling too well at the mo.

So today's question comes in from Carly.  Basically she would like to know the legalities of home ed.  How we got started, who we had to inform and is there any support from the council etc... So listening to this back there are a couple of patches of interference where I forgot to put my phone in airplane mode.  Just written below for you what was said in them in case you can't make it out. *We've had 5 years to build up to it I suppose because we knew we were doing this since Hermione was born. **Their kids are flourishing and socially fantastic. ***We run a youtube channel as well, which is not like this kind of thing. ****Just a really lovely child isn't she?  Do you know what I mean?  She's turned 5 last week, well, this week really. So I hope we have managed to answer that for you.   Let me know what you think.  If you have any questions do get in touch.  I'm @Caz4500 on instagram. You can find us on facebook here https://www.facebook.com/raisingawookie/ and we even have a youtube channel documenting our Home Education Journey.  https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCtSpR64B6iLyPnVzw6QwVpg

So the question sent in by a listener this week is, "Is it difficult to cover all the things that need to be taught."  Here we explore what Children in the UK NEED to be taught and what Hermione is taught, she is KS1 at the moment. Edit for a mistake - We learnt about Nelson, I was close ha ha!

Sorry for the slightly fuzzy intro.  Not sure what happened there.  The rest of the podcast is quieter but no fuzz, hurrah!  Anyway... Today's podcast is a discussion between myself and my husband Mike, trying to answer a listener's question. That question is... Does Hermione get lonely not having a classroom of children to be friends with? Let me know what you think.  If you have any questions do get in touch.  I'm @Caz4500 on instagram.
