RAR #225: It's Just Data (What your data is REALLY telling you about your homeschool)
Why do we make things mean more than they actually mean?
We all do it.\xa0
We realize a kid doesn\u2019t know how to tie their shoes at age 12, and we tell ourselves we\u2019re forgetting to teach SO MANY IMPORTANT THINGS.\xa0
We feed our kids frozen pizza for dinner twice in a week and think it means we don\u2019t care about their health.\xa0
We sleep late and tell ourselves we\u2019re lazy.\xa0
We have a late reader and think it means we\u2019re not good at this \u201cteaching reading\u201d thing.\xa0
We make things mean what they don\u2019t mean ALL THE TIME.
And today? Today we\u2019re gonna talk about it.
I\u2019m sharing something we\u2019ve been talking about in Circle with Sarah, which is our homeschool coaching program in RAR Premium. Recently I did a couple of episodes on why we need to keep data in its place in our homeschool and not make things mean what they don\u2019t mean.\xa0
I wanted you to hear it, so I\u2019m sharing those two episodes in one RAR Podcast for you here.\xa0
In this episode, you\u2019ll hear:\xa0
- Why you have to learn to separate the data from your self-worth and value\xa0
- How to make use of what the data is actually telling you
- Journal prompts to help you suss out what the data is telling you and what you\u2019re making it mean
