I’ve fielded lots of questions recently about Reconstructionism. Here is a good article put out by The Troth that explains very consisely what Reconstructionism is and is not.

We’re modern people, with modern-day concerns: we can never BE Egyptians of 1300 BC, or Vikings of 800 AD, or Romans of 100 AD – nor should we try. Furthermore, there are some aspects of ancient cultures that really should NOT be brought back, such as slavery and human sacrifice. But we believe that our ancient religions, and the cultures of which they were integral parts, DO contain much that IS deeply true for us now, and that should be brought back into the world.

I plan to have an article up soon about what I specifically practice, but it isn’t really significantly different from what you would find in The Troth’s article.
