If from time to time you feel alone in your homeschooling endeavors, never fear, you are not... not by a longshot. As proof of this, I submit to you the Carnival of Homechooling. The Carnival of Homeschooling is a roving blog hosted by a different homeschooler each week. In each post, the host intruduces posts of blogs from homeschoolers all over the country, and possibly even all over the world.

Today's Carnival of homeschooling is quite special. It is the 158 week that carnival has been in existance. That makes today the three-year Anniversay. Yay.

If you mosey on over the this weeks carnival which is hosted where it started, at Why Homeschool blog by the Cate Family, you will find dozens of interesting entries.

Some of my favorite carnival entries from this week includes an entry from Diamonds in the Rough, entitled Two Peas at Opposite Ends of the Pod. This post reveals one of many reasons people homeschool.

The post Teaching Test Taking Skills Doesn't mean you are teaching to the test, helps us work out that dillema in our own homeschools.

Also, Dawn at Day by Day Discovers, discusses why her unschooling is becoming a bit less radical in Unschoolers and textbooks.

So if you are feeling a little isolated in your homeschooling journey, on online and check out the Carnival of homeschooling blogs, or better yet, get in on the action. You'll feel like you actually socialized.
