Please feel free to pass this along to anyone who might be interested and I have attached a PDF document that can be printed and advertised. We are trying to have a speaker come to each future meeting and this is going to be a good one. Each will have anywhere from a half hour to an hour for their presentations depending on the subject matter and to allow for discussion. I have heard a lot of good things about this company, Mathnasium, and if we can see what they are about and identify what our needs are as homeschoolers perhaps they would be a good fit for some families. If you are interested please RSVP early! And here is a preview of the next couple of months:
March: Dr. R.W. Keller of Real Science-4-Kids http://gravitaspublications.com/
April: RightStart Mathematics by Activities for Learning, Inc. http://www.alabacus.com
If you know of any businesses that might be of use to the homeschooling community please email me with your ideas and we will see what we can get lined up! Or if you have a business that might be of help to homeschooling families in their learning process you are welcome to email me also! Hope to meet some new faces this month! Take care, Tabbi
