Ok i feel like i am not even getting close to teaching my 6 & 8 yr olds what they need to learn. I am so frustrated and my husband suggested putting them back in public school, but i really want to make this work. They both hate school and fight me over it every day. They hate to read, write, and do math the most, and they strongly dislike science and history unless we just watch videos. Ive tried online curriculums and ive tried block scheduling (since learning multiple subjects in one day really puts them off). Ive tried just ordering a lot of different workbooks to do with them, which kind of works but i am constantly back and forth because if i leave one alone she will just ignore her work or find any reason to be excused. The only thing they enjoy is for me to read to them but they dont want to talk about the text. They just want to listen for fun. Ive tried unschooling but then i feel like they learn nothing because they dont want to do anything that seems remotely educatuonal. I feel like i need something with structure and daily assignments so i know they are learning what they need but im on a VERY tight budget. Any help with any of this would be greatly appreciated.
