Contact your local public school superintendent to inform her of your choice to enroll your child into homeschooling with you. The superintendent will require your child's name, information about the location of residence as well as the parents' names.
Brainstorm on how you would like to begin homeschooling your child (from researching lesson plan ideas to forming your own daily schedule with your child).
Research various methods and techniques of homeschooling by visiting your local library for books on homeschooling and education (depending on the grade level you are teaching).
Visit online resources such as HomeSchoolCentral.com, HomeSchool.com and HomeschoolingInMichigan.com. These sites provide free communities and information on homeschooling techniques, laws and lesson plans for those who plan to home school their children.
Plan your daily routine and lesson plans by selecting various subjects to introduce (such as Math, English, Geography or even Cooking). Because you are teaching from home, thinking outside of the box is permitted as you are not required to teach in the same manner as public or private schooling institutions.
Create outdoor field trips to local museums or parks to study insects or various types of art for the day. Go to a famous play or participate in a science experiment with your child to make learning enjoyable and exciting.
Design a grading and reward system for your child that will encourage him to keep up with learning new facts and understanding what you present for him to learn. Print and create reward certificates for excellent grades or a new discovery by your child to continue encouraging education and success.
