If reading, spelling, or writing provokes dismay in your school day, come spend an hour (or two!) at the #AFHE Convention with Gretchen Roe from Demme Learning to learn about the work that the brain has to do to perform these different tasks, and ways to use your new knowledge to make progress and build competency in your students! We know you’ll be encouraged by her workshop in the Special Learners series, too, about practical ways to help your student learn to overcome obstacles more independently. Gretchen has been an advocate and learning consultant for homeschool families for many years and brings that experience to Arizona in July to encourage and equip you! #AFHEcon2019 #HomeschoolStrong #HomeschoolArizona
The students attending the #AFHE Convention Christian teen program will start their weekend with a challenging message from Bob Sjogren of UnveilinGlory, who will encourage them to take a Christ-centered approach to life. Parents with small children will have the opportunity to hear from Debby Sjogren about ways to prepare those kiddos to be receptive and teachable in their homeschool, by focusing first on virtues and attitudes. Bob and Debby homeschooled their own four children and are the originators of the popular and powerful “Cat and Dog Theology” Bible study curriculum. We are welcoming Bob & Debby Sjogren as featured speakers for the first time, although they have been exhibitors with AFHE for several years. So many NEW speakers and workshops at the convention! What a great reason to be sure you register and make your plans to be there! #AFHEcon2019 #HomeschoolArizona #HomeschoolStrong @CatandDogTheology
You might have the idea that IF there is a challenge bigger than learning math, it’s the challenge of teaching math! What if you could give your child and yourself the gift of math confidence? Real mathematical fluency and understanding? We’d love for you to come hear Kathleen Lawler address the topics of being a great math teacher, understanding how children learn math, facing down the myths about math, and more in her workshops at the #AFHE Convention! Kathleen is the daughter of Dr. Joan Cotter, whose research and teaching experience led to the development of RightStart Math. Learn new ways to think about and enjoy math with Kathleen Lawler at the #AFHE Convention in July! #AFHEcon2019 #HomeschoolStrong #HomeschoolArizona @RightStartMathematics
Having an experienced mentor around when you are a beginner is invaluable. And that’s exactly why Colene Lewis is joining us at the 36th annual #AFHE Convention! Colene and her husband Tom were involved in leading AFHE for many years, their three daughters were all homeschooled until college, and Colene has continued investing in the homeschool community ever since! Colene will present part of the FREE “Getting Started” mini-conference on Thursday with her talk “Tips and Tricks for Homeschool Success” – that’s a win! And during the convention workshops Colene presents two other sessions that will help you be effective and enjoy your homeschooling. Check out her workshops at www.afhe.org/convention/speakers/ #AFHEcon2019 #HomeschoolStrong #HomeschoolArizona @cultivatedlearning
Summer's coming! What's your favorite type of family vacation or favorite family vacation destination? #HomeschoolArizona #AFHE #HomeschoolStrong #Homeschooling #Homeschool #SummerFun
Having a plan and knowing what to expect can make the toughest tasks more manageable. To that end, Beth Mora of Here to Help Learning will be a featured speaker in the Special Learners track, with a workshop on “life hacks” for educating students with neurologically-based learning issues and another session to help parents meet the bewildering challenges that sometimes accompany having a gifted student. In family relationships it’s also beneficial to have a plan for when challenges arise, and nurturing those relationships is a primary motivation for most homeschool families. You’ll be blessed by Beth’s workshop on anger and conflict, and Forrest will present a special session especially for dads to help you “keep your family out of the shop.” Beth and Forrest are venturing to the Arizona heat from Washington state this July because they love to encourage and strengthen homeschool families – we are so glad to have them joining us again this year! #AFHE #AFHEcon2019 #HomeschoolStrong #HomeschoolArizona @hthlinsta
Wondering about those high school years, trying to decide if you can take on that challenge? Lee Binz, The HomeScholar, has oodles of experience, information, and tools for you to use to make your homeschool high school a success! We are so glad to have Lee returning to help equip and motivate you and impart the confidence parents need for these important years. And Lee will also present a workshop on scheduling – a tool that homeschool parents at every stage should understand and know how to use. Whether you are just considering homeschooling through high school, or if you’re into those years and could use a refreshing dose of “can-do” mindset, you’ll want to come hear Lee’s workshops – and bring a friend! #AFHEcon2019 #AFHE #HomeschoolStrong #HomeschoolArizona @homescholar
In our #AFHE Convention speaker intro today we are so pleased to highlight another new-to-Arizona featured speaker: Cindy West of Our Journey Westward. Cindy writes and teaches on the topics of Charlotte Mason homeschooling, gifted and struggling learners, creative homeschooling, and much more! This year’s Make & Take workshop series includes two sessions with Cindy, where attendees will get hands-on practice in using nature study for all ages in your homeschool, and another hands-on session which focuses on brain training strategies for all your young learners – and maybe for you, too! Check our speakers page on the website to see descriptions of Cindy’s other motivating workshops, get excited, and make your plans to come get the inspiration that’ll be waiting for you at #AFHEcon2019! #HomeschoolStrong #HomeschoolArizona @ourjourneywestward www.afhe.org/speakers/
The #AFHE Convention is so full of rich opportunities for parents – and for teens! Friday afternoon’s workshops in the teen program will feature Dr. Teresa Moon and her team from the Institute for Cultural Communicators, conducting an interactive, fun, high-impact training seminar. Your student has a viewpoint to share and a story to tell, and these sessions will help them acquire experience and tools to do that in all kinds of settings, from personal conversations to group activities to public speaking! Dr. Moon travels the nation and around the world training audiences how to impact culture through relevant communication and authentic leadership. Parents can hear from Dr. Moon on Saturday as she shares about the importance of mentors and – don’t miss this – “The Secret to More Time and Energy for Moms!” Looking forward to these and many more great workshops at #AFHEcon2019 ! #HomeschoolStrong #HomeschoolArizona www.afhe.org/speakers/
