The transition to free learning unManual
Now that you have completed your FL-IEP, you might be thinking “what’s next?” As a FL, you are now in much greater control of your time and activities—you have taken on “getting educated” as your responsibility. So, what’s that going to look like?
Perhaps you already have something you are passionate about or you know what you want to spend your time doing. Perhaps you’re finding that you have more freedom than you thought, and it’s a bit overwhelming to think of it all at once. Maybe you have an idea about a few things, but don’t know where to go from here. This is your official invitation to take charge of your learning; to design it, own it, and live it as fully as possible.

“Children are biologically designed to educate themselves. They do it joyfully through play, questioning, and exploration. We don’t need to educate children, all we need to do is provide the conditions that would allow them to educate themselves.” - Peter Gray
