by Alyssa Molen /9th grade Being a homeschooler means that I spend more time with my family. I am not positive but I think most kids my age avoid their parents, but I appreciate the time I spend with them! I am learning subjects I most likely wouldn’t learn in public school like Latin and Logic. Adventuring to my grandparent’s house or helping out a friend in need are just two ways I am able to use my school day for more than just academics. I will admit being home schooled is full of distractions and is some-times difficult, however I am now learning how to focus and pay attention. Occasionally, I am assigned books I would not have chosen to read and I find out I actually enjoy them for example… “Out of the Silent Planet” by C.S. Lewis and “The Hiding Place” by Corrie Ten Boom. Home schooling is perfect for me and makes learning exciting!
