Growing up I hated school. As an immigrant farm family, we moved from town to town following the farm seasons. My parents moved from Mexico to the U.S. in search of a better life and they did their very best to raise us, I’m grateful for their sacrifices and constant love. While in my early years of elementary, I was ahead of the class in the latter years of elementary school I was always behind. The constant moving made me hate the cycle of change. I hated the rushed mornings, I hated not feeling smart enough and barely passing, I hated feeling dumb. Sadly, learning was not a good experience for me until my college years where I learned so much about myself and the world.
Fast forward to today, I’ve learned to see the world through a different lens and I’m passionate about teaching my sons to love the gift and opportunity of learning! Throughout my homeschool journey, I’ve learned about the importance of reading aloud with my children and although we are done with 2nd grade we will continue learning through the summer. Learning should never end and reading aloud helps your child associate LOVE and LEARNING together.
Sooooo, I invite you to join my summer book club! Join us as we read the classic Charlotte’s Web!
