Considering homeschooling? Starting the homeschool journey? Need a refresher? Then this workshop is for you! In cooperation with Birmingham Homeschoolers Community, Essential Church School is offering an all-day event. This is a parents only event with informational sessions that include: Know Your Why (Evaluation of your reasons and philosophy of homeschooling) How Can I Homeschool? (Discussion of legal issues) How Do I Teach? (Discussion of ways to teach at home) What Do I Teach? (Discussion of curriculum choices) Planning (How to plan for the year and for the school days) Question & Answer Homeschool veterans will share their homeschool stories throughout the day. We want to encourage you to come for new ideas and encouragement even if you are already homeschooling. And bring a friend that is interested in homeschooling as well!   COST: A donation of $10 is suggested to cover the event costs and our speakers’ lunches, but this event is open to the general public at no required ticket price.   LUNCH: We MAY arrange for a lunch to be provided, and we will give you the options to pre-order here on the event page. Because we have a lot of material to cover, we will only have a short lunch break.   LOCATION: We will be in the Mueller Annex Classroom of the North Shelby Library.
