RE: Hello! I'm Derek, a Canadian landscape photographer, and I'd like to share a few photos with you and tell you my story. :)
Yeah, I loved it as a kid! I could have my schoolwork done by noon then spend the rest of the day running around in the backyard pretending I was Daniel Boone! I had some other close friends who were also homeschooled, so I think that made it more enjoyable as well. As I got into Jr. High, I definitely was interested in going to a public school where I would have more social opportunities, but I never felt like super confined by being homeschooled or anything like that.
Gotcha, I did Sonlight if you've ever heard of that haha.
That explains the lumberjack beard and the red checked shirt (not that Daniel Boone had those things, but, y'know, stereotypes)...
Sorry, I haven't heard of Sonlight, but I have to admit I'm not up on my homeschooling curricula. Unfortunately I didn't interact much with other homeschoolers (was a loner even then), so I didn't know what else was around. My parents could probably tell ya. :)
Haha I guess it gives it a little context eh!? :)
Well I'm deeply offended! Just kidding, I don't think it was very big. Basically involved a ton of reading books which I loved.
You said "eh"!!!
Did you have to also analyze the books and do essays or did they actually let you read them?
