<\/a><\/p>\nNoah loves all things physical, so whether it’s biking, soccer, trampolining, swimming, running, hiking, skating, or\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\nscootering, the family tries to get as much outdoor activity time together as they can. They\u2019ve also enjoyed the ability to learn and travel while restrictions allow.<\/span><\/p>\n\u201cWe took a trip to Kelowna in September and we just took school on the road,\u201d Marina says. \u201cHe did school at the beach, and we toured an apple orchard, and he learned about the farm and the apples, and then he did a report about the apple farm and his favourite apple at the farm.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\nMarina says the whole home education experience has taught them to challenge the typical understanding of what education really looks like, and to dive deeper than the curriculum itself. She says the best part about homeschooling has been their time together as a family.<\/span><\/p>\n\u201cHomeschooling has given us consistency and stability through these crazy COVID times,\u201d Marina says. \u201cIt\u2019s been a huge learning curve, but the homeschool community is really supportive. When my own kid is saying, \u2018I\u2019m not going back to school till college,\u2019 I guess something must be going right.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\nThey look forward to continuing their homeschooling journey through BCS@Home in the coming school year, as they continue to integrate Noah\u2019s inquiry-based learning with his education.<\/span><\/p>\n– 30 –\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\nBy Micah Jansen<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Turning Everyday Life into a Learning Experience\u00a0 How Marina uses Noah\u2019s natural curiosity to guide his interest-driven education When COVID hit in the beginning of 2020, Marina and her husband […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":7,"featured_media":11443,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_price":"","_stock":"","_tribe_ticket_header":"","_tribe_default_ticket_provider":"","_tribe_ticket_capacity":"0","_ticket_start_date":"","_ticket_end_date":"","_tribe_ticket_show_description":"","_tribe_ticket_show_not_going":false,"_tribe_ticket_use_global_stock":"","_tribe_ticket_global_stock_level":"","_global_stock_mode":"","_global_stock_cap":"","_tribe_rsvp_for_event":"","_tribe_ticket_going_count":"","_tribe_ticket_not_going_count":"","_tribe_tickets_list":"[]","_tribe_ticket_has_attendee_info_fields":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[48],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-11441","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-bcs-highlighting-our-homeschoolers"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/bcsathome.ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11441","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/bcsathome.ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/bcsathome.ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bcsathome.ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/7"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bcsathome.ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=11441"}],"version-history":[{"count":10,"href":"https:\/\/bcsathome.ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11441\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":11458,"href":"https:\/\/bcsathome.ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11441\/revisions\/11458"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bcsathome.ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/11443"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/bcsathome.ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=11441"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bcsathome.ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=11441"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bcsathome.ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=11441"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
