Some parent comments following the orientation:
…extremely encouraged by the training (perhaps empowered is another word), specifically on the point to “bring the classroom outdoors”—reminded that it was something that motivated some to home educate in the first place! and to refocus and to not get overly wrapped up in a routine that keeps them inside too much and forget the resources and opportunities right outside their door!
…being able to watch the volunteer Litzsinger educators work with our children. “Watching and listening to them was probably the most beneficial moments of the training—HOW to explore with kids, WHAT to draw to their attention, WHAT answers you don’t have to have!” These observations made of the volunteer educators helped us to see our potential role as fellow-explorer to our children wasn’t overly complicated or impossible.
