B Katie Dugdale, 홈스쿨 용어 정의—Classical, unschooling, Charlotte Mason, deschooling, unit studies, read aloud, co-op, wild and free, dual enrollment—maybe you’ve been reading homeschool blogs or talking with a friend, and you’ve heard some of these terms. You nod along like you understand, but in reality, your brain is swimmy and trying to keep up. Homeschooling comes with its own language and terms. Join me as we define the terms commonly used in homeschool circles. Knowing the language of homeschooling can help with choosing (or not choosing) curriculum, classes, schedules and more!

G Megan Scheibner, The A to Z of a Character Healthy Homeschool—If we homeschool simply to achieve high academic marks, we are squandering the opportunity to influence our children for Christ. Character-healthy leaders are those who have learned to elevate virtues above feelings. If we spend our homeschooling hours simply on academics and activities, we may win the praise of man, but we risk losing the hearts of our children. In our few short years with our children, we must focus on first things first and character is always the first thing! Megan will challenge parents to use every opportunity to teach their children to serve God by loving others and to love others by faithfully serving God. (Salem 1) CD/MP3 #4

In this workshop, Belinda helps parents discover various ways to add or adjust purchased curriculum to make it fit your family’s needs. She covers why some packaged curriculum is not always a good fit, and what to look for before you invest in something. (Winston 1) CD/MP3 #9

As homeschooling parents, we have the time and the freedom to help our children discover their gifts and talents before they leave home. It’s helpful to have career, vocation, and/or ministries to pursue after high school. The sooner they formulate a plan, the sooner they can enjoy the fruits of their labor. Our teens can become entrepreneurs with multiple streams of passive income, preparing them financially to go and be and do whatever they are called to do. (Gaines) CD/MP3 #15
T Dr. Bill Brown, The World of Worldviews—This session explores the reality that worldviews result from being human. All worldviews fall under one of three major categories: Naturalism, Transcendentalism, and Theism. Each will be explained, showing comparisons and contrasts. The goal of this workshop is that the student will be able to recognize the different worldviews present in philosophies, religions, popular culture, literature, and entertainment.

LYO Andrew Pudewa, Reading Strategies for the Struggling or Nonreader—As schools have made reading their new god, believing that producing good readers will solve all their academic problems, many children—the dyslexic, the easily distracted, the auditorily challenged—are truly left behind in the rush to improve test scores. What schools don’t know (but what many parents discover) is that reading is not simply being able to rapidly decode symbols with the eyes. With humor and insight, Andrew will share stories and strategies for helping students who need to engage the cognitive processes of reading, but who are more likely to excel through a wider variety of practical, creative, and imaginative approaches.

In this workshop, we will discuss how to evaluate truth using three areas of study: logic, history and cosmology.

P Belinda Bullard, 고등학교 경험을 영향력 있는 성적표로 바꾸기—One of the many benefits of educating children at home is the ability to cater learning experiences to a child’s interests and a family’s lifestyle. With homeschooling approaches like unschooling, child-directed or eclectic, we can maximize this benefit to make learning both fun and effective. Yet, documenting these learning experiences is often difficult. Belinda touches upon why these experiences are not only beneficial, but necessary, and how to successfully express them on high school transcripts so that external decision makers can clearly see what transpired during the high school years.
