2 things that I have read this week that may be of some interest to other unschooling families are
http://www.sudval.com/01_abou_06.html This is the link for Sudbury Schools which are a Democratically structured school with unschooling philosophies where children come together every day taking part in the decisions of who stays on the Board of Directors, how the schools budget is spent, field trips and such. They are allowed to explore what interests them within the school and take active leadership on how to spend their time where staff is available when they ask for help. Use the link to explore more of this fantastic alternative school!
The other one is my favorite unschooling advocate, Dayna Martin who is starting a new chapter in her journey as an Unschooling Doula or another words the “Un-Nanny” where she comes to your home for 3 or 4 days much as the show the “Super Nanny” where she observes the first day then makes suggestions for a more peaceful, respectful parenting role and Sharing her radical unschool philosophy.
