i don't want to do any school

thats what miss O is saying lately. as of today.

don't know what to think about that. we just went to the library today and i got a couple of books about the revolution. could't find one i liked about washington the man so settled for a couple about the times. did get one about "the founding fathers" so i'm sure he's in there.

but anyway i was psyched to be starting a different unit study about the presidents and to try lapbooking and such.

i guess now we'll see what unschooling, or maybe its just deschooling.....we'll see what that looks like

i'm still going to read the books i got one claims to tell the story of the american revolution from the pov of the actual oppressed instead or in addition to the "dead white guys" we're used to hearing from and i did grab a few books for her on the subject too. maybe she'll pick them up...

also picked up teach your own by john holt and really love what it has to say so far....i'm only as far as the preface though
