Home Again and Next, School at Sea

Friday, August 21st, 2009

It was nice meeting and talking to so many interesting parents during the 2009 home school conferences.  I enjoyed doing all of the workshops and presentations and hope that those of you that attended were able to take home ideas and information that will help make the 2009/2010 year a good one.

Next I am off on a home school group cruise to the Caribbean, School at Sea.  It is from the 6th to the 13th of September, and I am really looking forward to it.  I am going to do several presentations and a hands on writing workshop, and then spend the rest of the cruise working on the book I am currently writing, on how to teach writing.  Maybe I will see some of you on the cruise.  Check out my schedule on the home page to link to the cruise, if you are interested.

Writing Workshop Follow-up

Wednesday, May 13th, 2009

I have been remiss in keeping up with my blog because of traveling throughout April and May.  I did, however, visit with the many home school parents that came to my workshops and stopped by my booth at the conferences I attended in Cincinnati, Alaska, and Texas.   The main topic of our discussions was the application of writing and language arts into their children’s curriculum in a meaningful and enjoyable way.  I kept hearing “My child hates to write, so what do I to motivate him or her?”  We all know how difficult language arts and writing are to teach, and what works for some  may not work for others, so  I hope that the answers I provided at the conferences have helped.   If you have questions about teaching and motivating your reluctant writer,  leave a comment here.
