One of the most sought-after types of activities for homeschool students is science/STEM opportunities. The #AFHE Convention (July 19-20) and the Family STEM Fair (July 18) are great places to learn about finding (or creating!) those opportunities for your students. Arizona homeschool mom Kathryn Graunke has many years of experience participating with and leading robotics groups, mathematics clubs, and competitions, and in her workshops will be sharing with us what she has learned! And if your homeschool high school needs a guidance counselor (spoiler: it does!), Kathryn’s workshop in our high school track will help you BE that critical player in your child’s education. Come to Kathryn’s sessions to get equipped and inspired! #AFHEcon2019 #HomeschoolStrong #HomeschoolArizona
Here's a chance for you to be the hands-on learner! In our Make & Take workshop series at the #AFHE Convention, a fun new addition is "Hand Lettering Made Simple" led by homeschool grad (and mom to two youngsters herself) Nicole Ryberg! Whether you want to learn for your own personal enjoyment or so that you can help your kids add beautiful lettering to their own creations, this workshop will give you a good starting place -- *and* you will take home what you made and the materials used in the workshop. Make sure to add a Make & Take to your registration for a weekend full of enriching experiences, encouraging conversations, and impactful messages! (Interested teens are also welcome to take this workshop!) #AFHEcon2019 #HomeschoolStrong #HomeschoolArizona
Theodore Roosevelt made his first visit to the Arizona Territory in 1903 and was greatly impacted by his visit the Grand Canyon. Learn more about this conservationist president and his love for the beauty of God's creation in this guest post on the #AFHE blog from Charlene Notgrass, @Notgrassco https://afhe.org/learning-at-home-and-in-natureWe are blessed to have #Notgrass History as a sponsor at the 2019 #AFHE Convention!#2019AFHECon #HomeschoolArizona #HomeschoolStrong
Stories and real people – kids love ‘em, and that’s the heart of studying literature and history. So why is “studying literature and history” too often limited to just reading words on a page? Because we need ideas and help! Come to this make-and-take workshop led by Jamie Mehan, where you will get plenty of ideas and hands-on experience making these subjects come to life in your homeschool! All our make-and-take workshops at the #AFHE Convention provide inspiration and practice, as well as items to take home with you for continuing the hands-on enrichment. #AFHEcon2019 #HomeschoolStrong #HomeschoolArizona
Whatever your starting point is for your homeschool adventure, the #AFHE “Enjoy the Journey” Convention has help for you to take those first steps! If you are making the change from government school to homeschool, if you have little-bitties at home eager to learn, or for getting started with homeschooling at any point along the way, “graduated” homeschool mom Laura Gadbery will be presenting sessions to address those jumping-off points. Laura has helped scores of families as the homeschool liaison for the Valley’s Teaching & Learning Stuff stores, and she has helped AFHE to reach out to parents needing answers and resources for homeschooling. (Pro tip: get signed up for her make-and-take workshop “Sensory Containers for Tactile Learning” now, before the spots are gone!) www.afhe.org/convention/ #AFHEcon2019 #HomeschoolStrong #HomeschoolArizona
Seth Dunham – a veteran homeschool dad and Sales Director for Demme Learning – has a message for dads at the #AFHE Convention: stay (or get!) engaged! Have you thought about the “why” in your family’s homeschool? What part do you play in seeing it fulfilled? With Seth and other dads you can take a fresh look at these questions and receive both inspiration and actionable ideas for making the most of this season in your family’s story. #AFHEcon2019 #HomeschooStrong #HomeschoolArizona www.afhe.org/convention/speakers/
We all face the need to help our children know how to thrive as they mature and enter adulthood, yet there are so many unhealthy influences pulling at them in today’s society. Don’t just be concerned or overwhelmed – come learn how to really deal with these treacherous challenges! Sam Black is a father, author, and a vice president at Covenant Eyes Internet Accountability. His workshop “Raising Courageous Kids to Confront a Sexualized Culture” will help you with specific understanding about this area and how to equip your kids for victory in this battle. #AFHE #AFHEcon2019 #HomeschoolStrong #HomeschoolArizona @covenanteyes
