It's a Tuesday morning at the hectic Coulson house and "unschool" is in session.
Upstairs, 11-year-old Julia writes in her journal as 14-year-old Gavin checks on the family stocks. Downstairs in their cramped apartment living room, Hayden, 3, cries out in frustration: He can't make out a letter on a television learn-to-read program. Meanwhile, Corban, 5, ping-pongs among the floor-to-ceiling bins of school supplies deciding what to do next.
"Mommy, Mommy, can I do the space puzzle now?"
To an outsider, the scene looks more like summer vacation than a day of learning.
