The school of the future

From a collection of pictures made in 1910 in France about what life might be like in 2000.   With thanks to AKMA for the link (who is another unschooling parent).

I didn’t champion the Great Canadian Homework Ban this year (although everything I wrote last year still stands) but my kids and I enjoyed a nice not-back-to-school week.   My six year old son and I spent Thursday down at our local golf course hitting buckets of golf balls into an azure blue sky, while the smoky blue mountains of Vancouver Island shimmered in the distance.   All the other kids were back at school and the adults were back at work and we had the whole place to ourselves.   Enjoying September days like this is one of my favourite side benefits of having a life learning family.
