EP239: In this episode, Jean shares a simple way to craft age-appropriate homeschool lessons by pairing story-rich content with a focused skill goal, all within a spiral model of learning that lowers pressure and builds depth. Practical steps, planning tools, and holiday tweaks help you simplify and stay connected.

Here's what we're talking about:

• DAP as a lens for child-centered teaching
• Content versus skills and why it matters
• Story-first lessons that anchor meaning
• Spiral learning across three-year cycles
• Three-step block planning workflow
• Light planning with templates and reflection
• Holiday rhythm with shorter, cozier blocks
• Membership support for seasonal simplicity
