Another 4 am day. Is this a habit!?

I recently cut the pattern for simple bags in various shapes & sizes for my offering at a #selfdirectededucation #unschooling space. I cut out all the fabric this morning from used garments. #reuse #upcycle made a simple library tote from a vintage pillowcase.
A library tote made from a vintage pillowcase with a loose floral print on a white background. It is hanging against a purple backdrop. On a cutting table is a paper pattern. On top of it lays three vintage hand woven cotton napkins in black red and blue. Each has three white stripes across one side of the square. Many small pieces of fabric cut into shapes for patterns laying on a cutting mat. There are two different striped patterns going both vertically and horizontally. There are half Moon shaped fabric and square fabric and rectangular fabric. They are piled on top of each other.

I have been facilitating at a neighborhood SDE school, its is delightful. I love #selfdirectededucation. our family of #autodidacts practiced #unschooling & #projectbasedhomeschooling for decades. it's been such a pleasure to work with young people again (now that my spawn are adults).

I am interested in hearing from others about their interest in or experience with play-based learning. From radiacl approaches (self-directed learning) to integration in typical school settings.

An aspect of being the adult facilitator of SDE & unschool I have puzzled out over the years: we are also here to play. Follow me for more not-that-hot takes 😂 #unschool #selfdirectededucation

Have any grown unschoolers found their way here yet? Or grown graduates of Sudbury, ALC or similar democratic(ish) free schools?. I would like to hear what you have to say. #unschool #selfdirectededucation

One of my cofacilitators at Bungalow Lane still has small children, & I love the way they absolutely melt into her like a pile of puppies. Just a beautiful wriggling mass of safety, care, comfort & unwavering adoration. #selfdirectededucation #unschooling #unschool

I’m not Dad, but I melt for little love letters from the kids in any form. #unschooling #unschool #selfdirectededucation
Bananagrams game in a yellow banana-shaped zipper pouch sits on a light quartz countertop. Below the pouch someone has used some letter tiles to spell “HI DAD.”

From an evolutionary perspective, kids’ normal development would see them embedded in an autonomous child-led group of mixed age peers from dawn until dusk. Every day. My not-that-hot take is that neither conventional school nor homeschool accomplishes this well. #unschooling #selfdirectededucation

We used to have a very cool community of unschoolers on that other app. Let’s find each other again. I particularly want to hear & boost voices of grown unschoolers. #unschool #unschooling #selfdirectededucation

Day three on our myth busting. A classic this time 'They won't be able to get a job!' This isn't true. When a person has a dream to do something, they will find a way to do it.

#EduSky #homeEd #homeeducation #learningathome #selfdirectededucation #learningathome
Home education myth 3: they won't get a job or be able to go to university. No door is closed to a home educated child, GCSEs, A-levels, degrees, vocational courses etc. are all available. As is work experience and apprenticeships. A teen that wishes to follow a career, ear money or learn more will do what is needed to achieve that goal.

Giving my students freedom to explore different genres and platforms is bringing in such creativity and courage! Some are really excited, and want to share with the world.
