Notebooking

Notebooking has become a wonderful way to document and solidify learning. As a homeschooling mom of teens, I have come to appreciate the way notebooking customizes their learning and allows for greater freedom in showing just what they are learning each week. I have written quite a bit of information about this topic here on my blog and around the internet. Please feel free to click and glean some ideas for your homeschooling adventure.
