A bit like unschooling? 🙁
Later Big and I are doing English.
I plan on teaching her a new word:
overacting
n : poor acting by a ham actor [syn: hamming]
overact
v. tr: To act (a dramatic role) with unnecessary exaggeration.

Need support for your home ed journey? Looking for tutoring for your young person? Have an idea for a collaboration? I’d love to hear from you!
After 20+ years of home educating my four children (two now adults), I’ve gathered a wealth of experience that I’m passionate about sharing. Beyond blogging and guest writing, I offer several services designed to support families on their home education journey.
I’ve put together a collection of resources that I’ve genuinely found useful over the years—things that have actually made a difference in our home education. Whether you’re just starting out or looking to freshen things up, there’s something here to help. These are the tools, guides, and materials I’d recommend to a friend, because they work.

probably one she can live with learning.
i feel like i’m unjaxing too 🙁
our handover period has been relatively ok, so wish a similarly relaxed approach for you.[not unhelening as still mine, but know what you mean]
dread to think what un-nicing would entail…but i know it wouldn’t be pretty and both new carer and offspring would be learning many new words!
No, that would be dejaxing, like deschooling? Sounds too much like Ajax either way for my liking!
Not, we are not dejaxing – that implies a kind of purging process, we are just doing without her.
Small people have gone carnivore, bacon sandwiches to celebrate. 🙂
No – deschooling = getting used to life without school, whereas unschooling = purposely doing life/education without school. I reckon both have an element of purging, though!
Hence my distinction on your jaxing – but I knew what you meant too 😉
Bacon sarnies sound yummy 🙂
Just finsihed my bacon buttie. 🙂
And surely that’s two new words?
We are doing maths too. 😕
