S1, Ep 12: Transcripts & Portfolios: Mastering the Essentials of Homeschool Documentation

Every week we share our main topic episode, but then we also share a book club episode.  So far we’ve read John Holt’s Teach Your Own and Jonathan Mooney’s Normal Sucks.  The next book that we’ll be jumping into this week is The Homeschooler’s Guide to Portfolios and Transcripts - you can find all the details on that in the podcast description wherever you’re listening or watching and on all our social media channels.  When we said the word “transcript” when sharing the title of the book, did your stomach clench??  That word strikes fear in the hearts of many homeschoolers!  Since we’ll be discussing the ins and outs of transcripts and portfolios in our book club episodes over the next few weeks, we thought what better time to introduce the topics than in this episode.   We’ll also welcomed a guest in the latter part of the episode to explore what niche, interest-led learning might look like on a transcript or in a portfolio.   Homeschoolers love a good rabbit hole!
