[blparent] Home schooling

[Barbara Hammel]

I think it's a yahoo group but there is a blindhomeschooler list of parents 
teaching blind kids and sighted parents teaching blind kids.  I understand 
that you don't want to put an s on blindhomeschooler or you get a yucky 
site.

Hi,
I have seen it brought up here before, and I guess it is my turn to ask
about home schooling. For now, I would be substituting home school with
public schooling, that might change for next year. My oldest is in
kindergarten now. She has been doing a lot of sloppy work lately, and she
says it is because she is bored in school. From what they are doing, I can
see her being bored. the teacher, naturally just blows it off when it is
brought to her attention. but anyways, before I go on about the many issues
in the public school system, does anyone have good resources for a blind
parent doing home schooling? My wife works a lot, as a teacher, so most of
the responsibility would fall to me. I would be looking for all subject
areas, but reading having the least priority. The school thinks we need 2
reading programs, yeah lets spend 3 hours a day just on reading...anyways...

thanks,
Michael
