We've been writing a bit offline for the last week and just haven't had the time and energy to get it posted online. We have Internet working well in our home now and a wireless network for all of the computers, so we should be able to stay on top of this a bit more.
Our meetings covered a lot of the basics of QSI including the philosophy, curriculum, etc. The more that Heather and I heard, the more excited we got. The methods they use and their overall mindset is so different from traditional education. It's going to be a bit more of a challenge for us as teachers, but it will be a lot more rewarding I think. In fact, the first night we came home and we called the boys in. We told them that after what we heard, we'll be rather hard pressed to ever put them back in a traditional classroom setting... so they're stuck here until Joshua finishes high school. Since they're both adjusting so well, that actually didn't phaze them. The only real question they had was if we'd stay in Baku or move to another QSI school.
