Hard yes on this! One thing that I've been exploring (and should really get around to writing about at some point) is the practice of a "checklist for flourishing" for my teens: what are the activities that bring them flow, relationship, achievement, meaning, and just plain fun? (This is a modified version of psychologist Martin Seligman's "PERMA" model of well-being.) I'd like to experiment with planning our homeschooling weeks around these items, and seeing how their academic activity can even play a role in helping them experience some of this.
Love this! My daughter wasn’t super excited about the history curriculum we worked through this past year, so I asked her what aspect of history she’d like to learn about this coming year and she said, “Theater History!” I’ve been piecing together resources for the last couple of months and just booked tickets to a bilingual play at a Hispanic Theater for mid-October, with close friends of ours. We are both looking forward to our upcoming studies!
Love this! Thank you. Yes to planning for happiness! And I just ordered your Intuitive Homeschool Planning Tool...we are officially starting "Kindergarten" with my daughter in the fall. Nervous but excited!

You'll do great! Keep joy in your sights! Change pace, gears, or programs to adapt to what lights up your learner.
Thank you, Julie! Will do!
