Are You Ready For the First Reading Circle???

As the calendar rolls over to May 1st, 2015, it is time for the First Reading Circle to begin!  Do you have a copy of Teach Your Own: The John Holt Book of Homeschooling?  I couldn’t resist cracking mine open and diving in…  🙂  Thus far I have found it to be thought-provoking and engaging.  Holt’s style is very direct.

I wanted to learn more about John Holt, so…  Wikipedia is usually my first place to look for info online…  Check out their article on John Holt (educator).  (All links in this post will open in new tabs.)

Holt started the bi-monthly magazine Growing Without Schooling in 1977.  There is a lot of great information about him and his work on the website: John Holt GWS.  Patrick Farenga worked with Holt for many years and following Holt’s untimely death in 1985, ‘picked up the torch’ as it were, to continue his work.

OK…  So, now that we have a little background on the authors and their work, it’s time to explore the book!
