~The Right-Brained Dominant Learner

Being right-brained dominant or left-brained dominant is a way to view a person’s holistic learning style. As you understand more about it, you will even discover how much it impacts your relationships, career choice, and perspective.  These Introduction-Beginner posts will provide you with the foundational framework of what makes a person right-brained dominant:

~My Unschooling Journey

As I followed the lead of my seven right-brained children, they revealed to me how a child’s natural learning path matches beautifully with scientific research on brain development (and other body processes). I try to share that information here, my philosophies, and how unschooling was implemented in my home with my children.

~Reading Posts

There is a lot of controversy about what and when is the best way to teach reading. Reading is something that was very important to me personally and I hoped to share that with my seven children as I raised and homeschooled them. I try to share in each of these posts the things I have learned in the process of doing this:

~Dyslexia Posts

It is estimated that 20 percent of children are diagnosed with dyslexia. Behind every diagnosis of dyslexia is a right-brained learner. What’s the difference between a child who is right-brained and a later reader and one who has dyslexia? I think gathering information is very important in order to determine the difference for yourself based on what you know about your child. Here are some posts that will help you with your research:

~Various Subjects

Sometimes we get stuck thinking there is one right way to learn something. My children taught me that there are as many ways to learn as there are people pursuing it. Here are some posts to expand your thinking on how to learn various subjects:
