Starting High school....(My story)

The First year of High school....

I will be honest I was nervous about starting high school. Especially, since I knew I would be taking biology and Spanish (I am not a science person). It was all new to me. Like I mentioned in a previous post, everything went digital and electronic for high school in my homeschooling curriculum. So, that was also something to get adjusted to. 

I had to learn to be more discipline, which I am still learning that to this day. I thankfully had family support and people to guide me during this big stepping stone. I had to organize everything out, and I will say I had my struggles. You will be confronted by problems, but you can succeed if you know how to tackle it head on!

Some tips for homeschooling freshmen's (or any student):
1. Have a planner and write down your goals and accomplishments for the day
2. Do not procrastinate on work (its hard, I still struggle)
3. Take a small break after you accomplish something
4. Pray (You need God's help no matter what)

Don't Forget To Smile!!

So lets clear a few things up, shall we... One thing people think is that people who do school online don't get to interact with other people. In most people's cases this is not true. See for me, I interact with many people despite the fact that I am a homeschooler. There are many ways that a homeschooler can interact with people like: being in a youth group, attending extra curricular activities, taking dual credit(for high schoolers), being in a scouting program, being in a homeschooling group, or even by meeting with friends on the weekends. Another thing that people assume is that homeschoolers don't have a communication with a teacher. Again, for most people this is not true. See the ...

I am LATE! Three continuous blogs are coming.... So now I will talk more about my experiences with online school. It is a little different from normal school. The difference is that you don't have to go anywhere, school is all in the comfort of your home. My seventh grade year was full of adjustments. I had to work with textbooks and workbooks. My schoolwork didn't move online until high school. And that my friends was a different experience on its own!  Now, I will talk about my first year of homeschooling. It was a year of adjustments and learning. We had to get used to the way we studied. In this particular curriculum we had to learn on our own, but thankfully I had my mom, online sources, and a tutor to help me and my siblings on this new journey.  I had to take paper tests and scan it to the school for grading. I also had daily lessons to complete each day. These lessons laid out the particular things I had to do for each subject. It was an experience I will...
