What Do I Do Monday?

The late John Holt was a teacher who became famous for his on-the-job studies of children and how they learn. He eventually became one of the pioneers of unschooling, and the magazine he published, Growing Without Schooling, was a wonderful resource for those of us just starting to homeschool in the 1980s and 1990s. In the "About the Author" section of this book, he said, "Like most people, I spent some time in schools, but most of my real education has taken place before school, outside school and since school."

This book contains Holt's detailed description of the teaching techniques he used when he taught school. This book was out of print for quite a while before being reprinted in the mid-1990s.

This book is paperback, printed in 1970, has 319 pages and is in good condition. Sorry....this one's sold.
