Community Night 9/25 CANCELLED! Next Mtg, 10/30--Homeschooling with Teens!

We have canceled this month in order to revamp and bring back the positive energy and drive that these meetings used to provide to our community!

Look for the next meeting to occur on Tuesday, October 30 at Title Wave Books from 6:30-8:30PM (and as always this is a free event). Our topic will be homeschooling with pre-teens and teens.

If you are interested in coming and discussing next month's topic please email or call me, RSVPs are required and this is a parents-only event!

Our meeting generally consists of parents coming together and sharing what works, what does not, what is going on in our community that works for us and of course connecting with other parents!

New homeschoolers and those thinking about homeschooling are always welcome!

And as always you are welcome to bring snacks and drinks and get 15% off books that night (excluding trades and they ask that we bring no trades in the evenings). Here is a link to Title Wave Books http://www.titlewavebooks.com/

Do you have a topic that you would like discussed? Would you like to volunteer your time and talk to those of us new to homeschooling or thinking about homeschooling. I guarantee you will not regret attending and meeting the other fabulous parents that make up our community!

The speaker that was scheduled for this month, Amylee Udell of Sign2Speak, will be available at the May 2008 Home School Community Fair. Here is her information and if you want to know more please email her or go to her website:

Signing and Hearing Children's Literacy
Recent research has shown that using signs and the manual alphabet with toddlers AND school aged children boosts their literacy skills! It's great for all ability levels and mixed levels. Find out why literacy problems are virtually non-existent in children of deaf adults. Learn how to easily incorporate signs into your day and your lessons to help your children as they learn to read and as they improve their reading skills. With Amylee Udell of www.sign2speak.com.
