Read, ask questions, listen carefully and observe. There are as many homeschooling styles as there are homeschooling families, and the approach you choose should fit comfortably into your lifestyle. This decision will depend on your philosophy of learning, the structure of your family's life, and the types of resources through which each of your children learns best. Be prepared to do some experimenting to find the combination that works best for each child and understand that as children mature or situations change so, too, might your approach to homeschooling. Many families use preplanned curriculum materials and textbooks.
