Work and Homeschool |
|
Do you have to (or have to return to) work or attend school but still want to educate your child(ren) at home? Have you been told that it's impossible to fit homeschooling your child(ren) into your life if you cannot make it your top priority due to your own work or school needs? Well, many of these list members are proving that work and homeschool can be done! This is a support group for working parents (or student parents) who have chosen to homeschool their children or are considering homeschooling, as well as for homeschooling parents who are thinking of returning to work. Whether you are working/attending school or thinking of doing so, whether inside or outside your home, and whether you are homeschooling or thinking of doing so, this list is for you.

Kathy Wentz |
|
Libraries can provide more than just books. Kathy Wentz shares the example of how homeschoolers worked with library staff in Johnsburg, Illinois, to create a Homeschool Resource Center (HRC). This project was funded with a grant by the Illinois Secretary of State's office for "New and Innovative Programs." The HRC provides resources and materials, including microscopes, telescopes, math and science manipulatives, foreign language tapes, and more. |
