Getting Started with Home Education
You may be starting to homeschool with children who are beginning their formal education or with older children that have been educated in an institutional setting for a number of years. Either way this getting started advice covers approaches, planning, and provincial policies. Most of what you’ll find here are links to trusted online sources of information, but over time we plan to add a list of learning experiences (ie. field trips) in the surrounding area and ideas and tips from homeschooling parents.
