Each month, we provide an opportunity for children to present something they have learned and practiced to a friendly audience of their peers and parents. This might be a science project, poem or scripture recitation, musical performance, book report, a demonstration. Children who do not wish to share are welcome to be part of the audience.
This regular public speaking exercise gives our children a chance to be proud of what they have learned in front of their peers, in addition to honing public presentation skills that will benefit them throughout their lifetime.
After the presentation time, we have a time of fellowship at a local park. Families are welcome to bring snacks or a picnic lunch and enjoy a time of fun in teh sun. Even when colder, we can bundle up and play outside on most days.

Each home school support group is different. Think about what you would like to get out of a support group, and think about what you would like to contribute. Think about why you are homeschooling, and what your goals are. You can even say “I’m so overwhelmed I don’t know where to start!”. Then, have a conversation. We will be happy to share with you what things we offer and help you with the decision about whether your family and our group is a good fit for your needs and goals.
