What About Socialization?

Living, playing and homeschooling in the Chicago suburbs.

That clears EVERYTHING right up!

So I’ve been gathering together a couple of resources for the co-op’s PE program in the fall. One of the other board members, who taught public school in her pre-homeschooling-mama life, passed along her early 1980s college textbook on the subject, in hopes that I might be able to sift a few ideas out of the dated educationese.

And now I see what I’ve missed out on. If only I had THIS chart when I began our homeschooling journey, things would’ve been different. I would’ve known exactly how to best effect a positive self-concept in my child. Instead I’ve had to muck around without completely inscrutable flowcharts. Poor kid, I hope she’s not scarred too badly.The etiology of a child’s self-concept.

So you all will be spared my fate, I have chosen to share my discovery with you here. My eternal gratitude to the committee of experts who produced this groundbreaking chart.
