Who is SCHOOME?
My name is Terry and I wrote a book called Schoome. It told the story of our home school experience from back in the 1990s. It was the most exciting and fulfilling thing I have done in my life, and I’ve done some interesting things so that is no idle statement!
I wanted to write down as much as I could remember before I got old and forgetful but as I wrote it it occurred to me that this was turning into the book that we would have liked to have read when we first started out on this adventure. So that is what the book turned into.
This blog exists because there is always something else to say, especially when it comes to education. Hopefully this blog will encourage anyone out there who is considering home schooling. It is important to know that it works (we ran off blind faith) and that the result is well adjusted humans who can think for themselves and who can see the funny side of life.
The book title came from a word that our boys invented……. it’s a combination of home and school…….’schoome’.
