Homeschooling is a choice made by some parents to provide education to their children in their own homes.
It's popular in the United States, and it is becoming more popular in the United Kingdom, Australia, South Africa,
and Japan.
There are several advantages to homeschooling. For example, parents choose what their children learn.
Because parents can teach their children one on one, they often understand the curriculum better and more quickly,
too. On the other hand, if their children need more time to learn something, parents can work with them at a slower
pace. Parents also like to spend more time together as a family, and children feel safe at home. A safe environment
often leads to better learning.
There are disadvantages as well. Homeschooled students often feel lonely because they don't spend as much
time with other kids their age. They don't get to talk with classmates about things like parents and homework.
Parents also feel lonely because they must spend time teaching children and don't get to talk with other adults at
work. In addition, homeschooled students sometimes cannot play school sports or participate in other activities and
programs available to people in a school.
Only you can decide if homeschooling is right for you and your family. Take the time to do the research
and consider the pros and cons.

One of a Kind HOMES
Shoichi wanted to live in an environmentally friendly home, and he always liked the greenhouses in his
neighborhood in Tokyo, Japan. So he decided to create his own greenhouse-style home. Sunlight warms his new
home, and a plastic cover around the house helps to keep the heat inside. There aren't any walls or rooms. The
"rooms" are actually large boxes on wheels. He can move them anywhere he likes, even outside. He loves his home,
but sometimes he would like to be able to move the whole house.
Ruth is an artist who lives in the Rocky Mountains in the U.S. state of Colorado. Over the years, she found

used old car parts in the front door and tire rubber as the roof. She also used the door of an old car as part of a wall,
so she can still lower the window!
Wayne and Cate are a couple from the U.S. state of Montana. They wanted a new home that wasn't too
expensive. Their solution was simple - they built their own home. They recycled and used 250 old tires as the base

A Walk Across Japan
Mary King and Etsuko Shimabukuro completed a 7,974-kilometer walk across Japan. Mary takes our
questions about their incredible accomplishment.
Why did you walk across Japan?
The mapmaker Ino Tadataka inspired me. He spent 17 years on and off walking through Japan. He drew the
country's first real maps.
How long did it take?
A year and a half. We walked from the island of Hokkaido, in the north, down to Okinawa. In Hokkaido, we
walked about 40 kilometers a day, and on the other islands, about 30. We often had no choice about the distance
because we had to find a place to sleep.
Describe a typical day.
There really wasn't one, but we tried to start by 7:00 a.m. and walk for 10 to 12 hours. Sometimes we had
breakfast on the road. We had to be careful in Hokkaido because the bears there could smell our food. We saw bears
twice, which was terrifying!
Did you walk every day?
No. We needed to do our laundry, check our email, and rest. Also, I wanted to interview people for my blog.
What were some of the best parts?
There were many! We stayed in a haunted guesthouse, walked on fire at a festival, and visited many
wonderful hot springs.
Any low points?
You know, overall, we really enjoyed ourselves, but there were a lot of aches and pains along the way. The
traffic could be scary because there weren't always sidewalks for pedestrians.
Did you ever think about giving up?
No, we never wanted to stop. Actually, I was sad when it ended. I wanted to walk from Okinawa back to
Tokyo, but Etsuko said we had to accept that we accomplished our goal. It was time to go home.
Would you do it over again?
Definitely. I'd love to retrace our steps when I'm 80. But I've also set myself the goal of walking across the U.K. or
India someday.

A Taste of Cairo
Cookbook author Arlen Gargagliano is always looking for new travel experiences. Join her on her blog as
she takes a food tour of Cairo, Egypt.
1:45 p.m.
Today I walked through the narrow streets of a famous Cairo market. There were many areas to explore, but
my favorite was the spice market. Each shop had huge containers of colorful spices. I bought a bag of mixed spices
for a friend and some dark henna to dye my hair red!
3:15 p.m.
I stopped for one of my favorite drinks - sugar cane juice! A man took pieces of sugar cane, put them in a
machine, and made juice. He gave me a glass of the juice, and I drank it quickly. It was sweet and delicious! It gave
me lots of energy.
6:30 p.m.
I ate dinner at the Abou el Sid restaurant. I tried several appetizers. My two favorites were a creamy bean
dish in a spicy sauce and fried eggplant with garlic. I had them with fresh flatbread. I also tried a famous Egyptian
dish made with a green vegetable. I want to live in this place!
8:00 p.m.
Before walking back to the hotel, I made one last stop at a place that sells wonderful Egyptian sweets in el Hussein
Square. It was busy, but I sat down and ordered a cup of tea and basbousa, a kind of cake made with semolina and
sugar syrup. It was out of this world!
