What is Unschooling?

Unschooling does not mean the removal of a reliable, measurable educational process. It does not mean the required elimination of all curriculum. It does not mean the whole house goes wandering off into the wild blue yonder.

Well, it could. Sometimes that's fun.

Unschooling means the removal of the school-style setting.

That's all. In our house, that means things are learned by a lot of reading, observation, casual discussion, and simply working on stuff together.

"Learning is not the product of teaching. Learning is the product of the activity of learners." - John Holt
