Stay Connected with Your Homeschool Group During COV-19
The COVID-19 pandemic and the requirements to practice social distancing has meant that many homeschool groups can no longer meet face-to-face. How can homeschool groups stay connected during this time?
Carol Topp, the HomechoolCPA is joined on today’s podcast by Doreen Browning, co-moderator of the I am a Homeschool Group Leader Facebook group and Jamie Buckland, Classical Program Consultant.
Listen as Carol, Doreen and Jamie discuss:
* How we can enjoy and redeem this time of isolation and refocus on homeschooling and our families.
* How to encourage interactive communication, not just one-way communication.
* Tools to use to stay connected: some new and some very old school (mail and phones!)
* While we are having a health emergency, there is no educational emergency.
* Are we too dependent on our co-op classes and tutors?
* Encourage parents that they are equipped to homeschool their children without your wonderful group!
