In this episode of the Your Morning Basket podcast, I discuss how to assess learning in your homeschool morning time.
I explain the importance of setting goals, self-assessment, parent observation, and real-world application in evaluating your children's progress. I also share practical tips on how to incorporate morning time activities into traditional assessment models, including issuing transcripts for high schoolers.
However, I emphasize that non-traditional methods of assessment, such as building relationships and fostering a love for learning, are just as important in evaluating the success of your morning time routine.
If you're looking for ways to measure your homeschooling progress beyond traditional tests and grades, be sure to tune in to this episode! (Link in profile)
