January Meeting

It's been a long time since we've had a regular monthly meeting (since October!).

We have these monthly meetings to give ourselves a chance to get around others who are in the same boat as us – the Home Education boat. True, we have different styles, curriculums and students, but we share the same goal – to teach our children well. There is so much we can learn from each other and so many ways we can encourage each other. I hope you can come!

Kingdom Way Homeschoolers Monthly Meeting
Monday, January 21st from 7-9 pm in room 204
The Chapel – Wadsworth, 1391 State Road, Wadsworth, OH
TOPIC: HOW DO YOU MEASURE SUCCESS?

 
Traditionally in school, success is measured by scores. In homeschooling, where character and attitude can matter as much as academics, do we measure differently? I look forward to an interesting discussion as we share how we evaluate and award our children for their hard work.

If you have never been to one of our monthly meetings, here is what to expect:

7:00 – 7:15 pm social time, get nametags, look at sign ups

7:15 – 7:30 pm brief devotion related to homeschooling, prayer

7:30 – 8:00 pm business – this is kept SHORT because we try not to do anything that can be accomplished through the yahoo group. What we will do is answer questions and discuss needed topics and new business.

8:00 – 8:45 pm topic/discussion/social. This varies month to month, the purpose is to get encouraged in a specific area of homeschooling life.

8:45 – 9:00 pm curriculum and resource share – we leave some time at the end to share resources

 
* If you did not pick up your directory at the Jay Wile meeting in November, I will have them on Monday!
* Many of us head over to Applebee's after the meeting for some additional social time...all are welcome! (1/2 price appetizers!)
