Newby Workshops 2012

Dear Friends,

Once again this year I am offering free workshops to new homeschoolers (and those thinking of homeschooling) at my home in Bradford.  I will also be partnering with Henry and Corrinna Kiezebrink to offer one in their home near Barrie again this year.

You may come to my home on either of two dates: Thursday, July 19th or Tuesday, August 7th. Both evenings will run from 7:30-9:30.  The Keizebrinks are hosting their workshop on August 21st from 7:30-9:30

If you are new to the homeschooling world or are considering this crazy lifestyle, then please feel free to come for a visit.  These are interactive (question and answer style) small group workshops in my home. If you, or someone you know, are interested in coming please RSVP directly to me at mapletreepublications@sympatico.ca or 905-778-9412 as soon as possible as attendance is limited to 15 people (since I do have a very cozy living room) and the evenings usually do fill up.

Both Mom and Dad are welcome to attend though I respectfully ask that only parents and nursing babes attend as a full house and a late evening often make it hard for young people to allow the adults the opportunity to get the most out of the workshop. 

We will cover topics like:

Yikes! Can I do this!?!
Where can I go for support?
What are the legal implications?
Do I have to contact my local school board?
What about curriculum?
What is a “normal” homeschooling day like?
What about socialization!?!

Please come with questions!

And expect some yummy handouts too!

Henry and Corrinna Kiezebrink plan to attend all of these meetings to share from their 23 years of homeschooling experience as well.

Please feel free to share this invitation with friends and family who are new to homeschooling or who are considering it.  You are also welcome to forward this information to your church group or other homeschool groups.  See you in the summer!

Blessings,

Cori
