The Tidal Homeschooling Master List

November 16, 2007 @ 8:05 pm | Filed under: Fun Learning Stuff, Tidal Homeschooling

Since I’ve posted on what I call “Tidal Learning” or “Tidal Homeschooling” both here and on Lilting House, I thought it might be helpful to compile a list of all those posts.

(My favorite kinds of posts are in the Connections category.)

Updated March 2008: The tide, my friends, went out weeks ago, and low-tide life is so good I find it hard to imagine ever doing anything else. I’ll be writing lots about this in days to come, about what is essentially a shift to full-fledged unschooling, but for now (and these many weeks past), I am enjoying writing about the small moments, the daily connections and adventures. I am living with some ideas a while before putting them into print. More later!

Way Leads on to Way

Can you tell I really love low tide? LOL!

This post isn’t about tidal homeschooling per se, but it gives a good picture of the flavor of our high-tide days: All Roads Lead to Rome (Even for Bunnies)

There is also a Tidal Homeschooling yahoogroup and a NearCircle blog ring for Tidal Learning Friends. We’d love to have you join us there!

    Lissa,
    You sure do make my life easier — thanks for the organization … and I’m with you, low-tide is the BEST for finding the real treasures!

    Blessings and a happiest of thanksgivings to you and your family — when are you coming to Denver?

    Dear Melissa,

    Thank you for such a wonderful blog. I have been reading it for sometime now, and enjoy your updates of family life in San Diego. I am not a homeschooling mom, but I do like to pop in every now and then to take a look at homeschooling in action. I just started a new blog, and would love some new visitors. Please stop in anytime at kathleenmiller.typepad.com
    God Bless, Kathy

    Hi!
    I just got done reading the martha years it’s a grate series. I just had a question,do you know what the babys name was? Thanks,
    julie

  6. Melissa says:

    Julie, the baby’s name was indeed Cora, after Grisie’s husband’s sister.

    Venisa, I’m afraid the publisher’s plans for the series have changed and there will be no future books. You can read more about this decision on my books page.

  7. Unplug Your Kids: Wood Craft Sticks at Mind Games says:

    [...] I’ve already been inspired by this week’s Unplug Your Kids project theme - wood - and I thought I’d share our impromptu creations from craft sticks today, a little early. Some weeks, I don’t even think about the theme until I see other projects posted on Monday, but other weeks, like this one, I keep the theme in the back of my head all week long. Must be high-tide homeschooling! [...]
