Fahrin asks, I answer

Posted by: coachsha on: April 29, 2009

Have you seen Monster’s Inc?  I love it!  Do you remember the part when Mike was on tv but his face was covered.  Remember the script?
Mike: I can’t believe it.
Sully: Oh, Mike…
Mike: I was on TV! Did you see me? I’m a natural!
Haha!  I was on TV again.  Respons RTM 1 (early morning [...]

I rest my case

Posted by: coachsha on: April 27, 2009

This morning, Abi took the boys for breakfast with his surau gang (most of them are enjoying life after work – ‘pencen’).
“Sekolah petang ke?”
“Tak, anak-anak saya homeschool.”
I was not there but the story was related to me.   According to Abi, a few replied, “Ooohh homeschool” while nodding their head (tapi tak sure if they [...]

Homeschool Silly-bus: Word Games

Posted by: coachsha on: April 20, 2009

Mi familia enjoys word games tremendously.
In the van, we play Spelling Bee:
One person choose a word, eg: road.  The next person makes a word that begins with the last letter (d), eg: dirty.  The third person, yellow…and it goes like that.
Sometimes we play Category Game (when I was a kid, we called this Negeri-negeri):
Choose a [...]

My home, my school
By ALYCIA LIM
Education as a rigid structure? Many parents have gone the extra mile to customize a best-fit for their child’s education.
Homeschooling is not a foreign topic, rather it has been a method of education from ancient times, before schools even [...]

Infaq Tuesday TV1 6:30

Posted by: coachsha on: April 17, 2009

The BIG boss and MEdium boss on tv.
Unfortunately, till today we haven’t had the chance to see the show.  Ohh…one thing for sure, the ‘Infaq journey’ opened our eyes, mind and heart to make more and give more.
Mothers, fathers, kids – be prepared to be wealthy (financially, spiritually, emotionally, and all -ly, -ly, -ly).

Found! Trick to keep track of kids’ work

Posted by: coachsha on: April 4, 2009

Cabaran utama kami dalam meng-homeschool anak-anak: to keep track of their progress.

Since both of us work together (running our own company and conducting english programs nationwide), there will be time when we have to be on the road, air, water – without the kids.  Usually for one-or-two day trip.  Otherwise, they will tag along.
Yup, we [...]

It’s a matter of CHOICE

This blog is about homeschooling. Our kids (Muhammad, 8, Musa, 7, Maryam, 5 and Sarah, 1) are exposed to learning & tarbiyyah at home, in the van, on the road. The world is their classroom. Their teachers are Abi & Umi, Tok Wan, Tok Wen, Opah, Sensei, their tutors and coaches, all the aunties and uncles in our big family, our friends and people from all walks of life.
We don't subscribe to a particular theory - what Islam has given us is simple and specific enough. Enjoy reading!
