April Support Meeting - Planning and Record Keeping

 

Spring has truly sprung, and we are excited about our April support meeting! Even though this will be a busy week for AHSL, we encourage you to join us for this Planning and Record-Keeping Meeting on April 12 at 6:00 pm. You will find it informative and fun, and you will likely leave with some great ideas to implement in your homeschool. We have several of our seasoned homeschool moms who have volunteered to share about how they plan – for the week and for long term. They will also discuss how (and when) they keep records – and even how they create transcripts for their high schoolers. As you can see, there will be something for everyone that night and we hope to see you there.

A few notes to remember: This meeting is open to the public, so you are encouraged to bring friends. Children need to be with you or in the child-care room. If you do plan to leave your children with the child-care crew, please consider leaving a donation with a board member. (We suggest $1 per child.)

March Support Meeting - Curriculum Show and Tell

 

Happy Spring everyone! It is THAT time of the year in which we homeschoolers start thinking about what we will be doing for school next school year. You know what that means. We are all in a focused, intense search for the “perfect” curriculum. We need your help at our March support meeting. Our topic will be “Curriculum,” and our featured guests are you, our AHSL members. Please plan to come to our Curriculum Show and Tell Meeting on March 8 at 6:00 pm for some fun, lots of information, and the sharing of your favorite curriculum.

How will this work? We encourage you to bring your favorite curriculum that you used this year and plan to share briefly with the group why you liked it (or didn’t like it) for your family. What made you choose it? Did it work for all your children? (Why or why not?) Will you use it again? (Why or why not?) What do you wish was different about it? Did you use it as written? Is there anything else you would like to tell us about the curriculum?

“Homeschooling in Unique Situations”

Support Meeting!

Are you a veteran homeschooler? Are you new to homeschooling? This meeting will be informative and fun. Several of our AHSL moms will be sharing their stories with us on topics such as: teaching children with medical issues, teaching children with special needs, teaching children with learning issues, and teaching multiple children in multiple grades. These short presentations will be followed by a question-and-answer session. Join us and see if you can find answers for your homeschool. You may even want to consider sharing what has worked in your family in your unique situation. Come join us for an evening of inspiration, shared stories, and maybe even a few good laughs. We know you spend a LOT of time with your lovely children, but this is a great opportunity to interact with other like-minded adults. We look forward to seeing you there!

This meeting is open to the public, so you are encouraged to bring friends. Children need to either be with you or in the child-care room. If you plan to leave your children with the child-care crew, please consider leaving a donation. (We suggest $1.00 per child.)
