Be wary of "homeschool help" disguises

Posted by Lisa Russell Sep 25, 2008

Joseph Chmieleski is a teacher and school administrator who has created a product called "Classroom Toolkit." Without fully checking it out, I have summized that is has classroom management stuff, teaching helps, record-keeping bla bla bla (things we don't generally need as homeschoolers.)

Maybe teachers weren't buying it, or maybe he just wanted to sell to homeschoolers or maybe it really IS just a mean-spirited way to slam home schooling. Whatever the reason, he has created a Squidoo lens called "homeschool teachers" and published several google Knols (bits of knowledge) that have discouraging, inaccurate and potentially dangerous information about homeschooling.

So today's blog post is basically this:

Do not take homeschooling advice from someone who is clearly biased AGAINST it.
