PHOTO COURTESY OF RAISINGARROWS.NETA blog I like to read every now and the
ost today about homeschool rooms.
She writes about how they no longer have a homeschool room and why they removed it from their home.
It's an interesting concept and possibly a way to remove some of the pressure you may be feeling to dedicate a space in your home to a classroom set up.
Here's an
t:
"When we first started homeschooling, I didn’t have a very large home, so school had to be done in the dining room. It was simple and it worked. But somewhere along the line, I became enamored with the idea of a room set aside just for school (probably because I was sure I could shut away the mess of homeschooling if I had such a thing), so when we moved to a home that would accommodate a School Room, I created one.
However, I quickly found my family isn't the School Room type.
We follow what is called a Lifestyle of Learning. Simply put, this means our homeschool encompasses ALL of our life. When you live like that, it is very difficult to school in ONE room. Life just sort of spills out into the entire house and you and your children end up frustrated by that room you call the School Room."

I would love to hear from homeschoolers and how they manage their home learning spaces.
