Hungry for more time with her boy who was growing up too quickly, she began to instruct Stefan in the family's living room. Beyond his formal lessons in math, however, Stefan was largely left to his own devices and his mother's erratic whims, such as her project to recapture her twelve-year-old son's early years by bleaching his hair and putting him on a crawling regimen. Years before homeschooling would become a massive nationwide movement, at a time when it had just become legal in his home state of Texas, Stefan vanished into that unseen space and into his mother's increasingly eccentric theories and projects. [So] when, after five years away from the outside world, Stefan reentered the public school system in Plano as a freshman, he was in for a jarring awakening."-- Provided by publisher.]]></description><link>https://kawarthalibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S192C5005615</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://kawarthalibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S192C5005615</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Block, Stefan Merrill]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sat, 31 Jan 2026 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://kawarthalibrary.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/5005615192</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>A Memoir</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781335000989/MC.GIF&amp;client=ontlibconbib&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Kids Don't Need School]]></title><description><![CDATA["In Kids Don’t Need School, veteran homeschool parents and community leaders Jonathan and Adriana Prescott lay out a radical new approach to home education that empowers children to love learning, build real-world skills, and take charge of their future."--Back cover.]]></description><link>https://kawarthalibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S192C5305695</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://kawarthalibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S192C5305695</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Prescott, Jonathan]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 31 Jan 2023 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://kawarthalibrary.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/5305695192</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle></subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9798987590614/MC.GIF&amp;client=ontlibconbib&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Students by Day]]></title><description><![CDATA[The atrocities of the residential school system in Canada are amply documented. Less well-known is the history of day schools, which some two hundred thousand Indigenous youth attended. The Curve Lake Indian Day School operated for over ninety years, from 1899 to 1978. Implementing Indigenous community research practices, Jackson Pind, alongside the Chief and Council of Curve Lake First Nation, conducted a search of the federal archive on operations at the school. Students by Day presents the findings, revealing that the government failed in its fiduciary duty to protect students. Harmful and discriminatory policies forced children to abandon their language and culture and left them subject to many types of abuse. To supplement this documentation, Pind also interviewed survivors of the school, who shared their often difficult testimony. He situates Curve Lake's development and operations within the wider context of Canadian assimilation policies, noting the lasting impacts on Anishinaabe identity and culture. Not only recovering the archive, written and oral, but building on files repatriated to the community, Students by Day is a story of Indigenous resilience, activism, and hope in the face of educational injustice.]]></description><link>https://kawarthalibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S192C4992939</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://kawarthalibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S192C4992939</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Pind, Jackson]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 31 Jan 2025 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://kawarthalibrary.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/4992939192</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>Colonialism and Resistance at the Curve Lake Indian Day School</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780228026044/MC.GIF&amp;client=ontlibconbib&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Why Fascists Fear Teachers]]></title><description><![CDATA["America's most influential teacher's union leader tells the anti-fascist history of public education, warning that American teachers today are under a new fascist assault-from book bans to culture wars and organized groups of 'concerned' parents dictating what can be taught"-- Provided by publisher.]]></description><link>https://kawarthalibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S192C4949236</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://kawarthalibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S192C4949236</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Weingarten, Randi]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 31 Jan 2025 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://kawarthalibrary.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/4949236192</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>Public Education and the Future of Democracy</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9798217045419/MC.GIF&amp;client=ontlibconbib&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Reading Picture Books With Children]]></title><link>https://kawarthalibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S192C4943053</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://kawarthalibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S192C4943053</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Lambert, Megan Dowd]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 31 Jan 2025 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://kawarthalibrary.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/4943053192</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>How to Shake up Storytime and Get Kids Talking About What They See</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781623545772/MC.GIF&amp;client=ontlibconbib&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item></channel></rss>
