Does Enrichment Always Mean Extra?
I am constantly looking for fun and engaging materials to enrich our homeschool. It’s so much easier to teach when my children want to learn. But many times the fun stuff is a bit… extra.
Hands-on enrichment usually means adding something extra. Stepping out of our current curriculum, finding new materials, and making time for the extra project.
Why can’t core curriculum be as engaging as enrichment material? Why can’t enrichment materials be as thorough as our core curriculum?
I get really excited when I find something that is the best of both worlds.
