Yeah, I've been looking for support on the same topic just starting small.

For example, I have been gathering resources (i.e. just links) on education for children 0-5 as I have little to not understanding of what would be useful experiences for them. I'd love to collaborate with someone on what the big questions and the small.

Broad: what should you try to teach a child before they reach age 5? First and foremost, values? How to social with others? Intuition for mathematics?

Narrow: how much should you read to a child? What? Why?

Find the format here in the forum to not structure the information well for review/edit/extension. Perhaps a Google Doc?

I am very interested in this topic and I admire you all taking the time to share your detailed thoughts.

I think there is a massive opportunity in creating a k-12 home schooling version of Lambda School but targeted at general knowledge. Why not start by work together on it?

Let me know if you'd be interested and I would love to collaborate!
