Holes in the brain

An excellent essay on home schooling and "teaching around the bad days." Worth reading even if one doesn't home school or even have any kids. http://mentalmultivitamin.blogspot.com/

Kindergarden teachers often make excellent directors and producers because high levels of organization, being where the buck stops, and knowing how to keep 30 people - adult or child - reasonably productively occupied for three hours is just how their days go.

Home-schooled kids frequently get involved in theater to help fulfill the "commuinity activity" requirement and end up being more mature, better prepared, and better focused than the adults.
