:: A future plan ::

Thinking about my examination result... Reading friends' entries about the feeling-good-and-relief after checking their results... I FEEL LIKE CRYING!!!

:: HOME SCHOOLING :: More often than not, what is the word that might cross our minds when we heard about it? In one word, how can we express our judgments or understandings on it? Impossible? Apalling? Sufiah? whatever.. As for me, i'll simply say; d.r.e.a.m :)

Yup, it's one of my dreams or i can say, a future plan for my children. People might say that it is not a well-known methods of teaching in most household in our country, or some other irony & sarcasm thinking will probably say; it is unrealistic or unworkable.

I admit that there are possibilities for bad consequences (e.g.: low ability in mingling with others) to occur but that's normal, almost everything & every action has its both bad and bright side. And in deed, i really can't say much about it since it is yet to be practiced. Still have to wait for about 5-6 years, maybe. The sooner the better, the more the merrier.

Got lots more to be done before making sure that it is a succesful method. It's very vital to make an 'experiment' on it. How many years of homeschooling, how many hours a day, how's the syllabus, who's the 'principal'/'vice principal'/'class monitor', the language.. Oh, still a long way to go!

More importantly, a meeting and so called discussion with my children's daddy have to be held first... Meaning to say that, at this point in time, i am to do nothing about the plan yet. :) Maybe just a few readings and observations.

Praying that ALLAH will help 'us' to teach our children, for the sake of serving the Ummah. InshaALLAH.

A link to a page where you can have a quick glance (if you have not much interest in homeschooling your child) or a methodically view (in case you are thinking of homeschooling your child) about the teaching syllabus. Note: the contents are free to be changed, especially in islamizing them. ;) Click here.
