Our homeschool is the best. Our schedule is flexible, we have pajama days, we get to see matinee movies, I don’t need a doctors note when he has a sick day, and we can go on vacations while other kids are in school. The greatest bonus is being able to study stuff that is actually fun to teach and learn. That is what AERO ACADEMY is all about. My son loves aerospace. We still cover all the core subjects, however we like to highlight science, math, building, and technology.

The other day my son said “I don’t really like homeschool.” I asked him why and he responded, “Because some of it is hard.” That’s when I realized we’ve been doing a lot of catchup lately and it took a lot of the fun out of lessons. It’s not so much his subjects are too challenging, he’s just fitting a lot more lessons in than I would normally give him. As hard as it was to hear, I’m so glad he said something. I’m going to make sure we reincorporate some of the project based assignments again. Instead of doing two history chapters per week, we will focus on one and build more on that with the projects he loves so much.

The Best Possibly the Worst School in the Universe

If you are a homeschool parent, I’m sure you’ve had days where you are so happy you are homeschooling. Your kid is excelling, they enjoy it, field trips and vacations have never been better. YOU ARE ROCKING IT! Until you’re not. This is basically the definition of parenting. You’re the best mom on the planet, and then you think you’re the worst mom ever. It’s okay. Because you are an awesome mom (or dad) and you are a great teacher too.

To get my son and I back into the mindset of our school’s purpose, the two of us rebranded our homeschool. It has the same name, rocket icon, and astronaut mascot as last year, but we refreshed the colors and look of it all. Now we are back to being the best school in the universe 😉
