Raising A to Z | Ontario Government Sued! | Story Time | Ontario Language Arts Curriculum Lawsuit

10/30/24 • 19 min

Story time!! A few years ago the Ontario Government introduced a new language arts curriculum (with a focus on bringing back cursive writing). This created a big debate in the province. But it was all a red herring... They had actually been sued and their language arts curriculum was determined to be a human rights violation! Here is the full story!

Raising A to Z | Are You Qualified to Homeschool?

Many parents ask the question, “Am I actually qualified to homeschool my kid? Should I leave it to a professional?” Parents look at professional teachers, those who have education degrees and work in public schools, and assume that they are significantly more qualified to teach children (and therefore they as parents are not capable of doing it).
This is not true!
As a teacher-turned-homeschool mom, I can say that almost every parent is qualified and capable of teaching their children! In this video, I’ll share why you are way more qualified than you think!
Intro
You’re already a teacher
There’s no “one way” to teach
Teachers don’t know everything
Teachers' College is focused on classroom management
Government curriculums change often
