12. Hello from Costa Rica! Homeschool On The Road
Description
We make homeschool work while both of us work full time, even from Costa Rica before a Spartan race. We answer rapid-fire listener questions on hours, schedules, curriculum, reading breakthroughs, travel schooling, routines, and why we quit a co-op.
• why a focused two-hour block four days works
• how shift work can support homeschool
• three-day and weekend-only schooling options
• curriculum we use and why it travels well
• early reading gains with daily micro-lessons
• making writing bearable for creative kids
• priming trips with research projects
• simple rules that keep school moving
• chore charts, laundry days, visual aids
• guarding 6–10 a.m. work time
• staying flexible while keeping standards
• leaving a co-op that wasn’t a clear yes
The phone we have with NO social media and NO internet browser!
