Hands on Homeschooling:
The Elementary Years

Topics to be Discussed
The seminar will be geared towards parents who are new to homeschooling and those who are just considering it. Jan will talk about the portfolio evaluation as well as different approaches to homeschooling and tips for providing children with meaningful learning experiences. The seminar may also be of interest to more experienced homeschooling parents who are hoping to learn more about incorporating hands-on learning into their daily schedule.
A bound collection of inspirational and informative homeschooling articles and handouts will be distributed to attendees. Please bring a $5 donation to cover the cost of the materials and venue.
More than 150 Usborne Books will be on display at 6:30 and after the seminar for those who are interested in learning more about these wonderful books for children. Consultants will be available to help you. There is absolutely no purchase necessary to attend the seminar.

Jan completed her BA and M.Ed. in Elementary Education at the University of Florida and went on to become a teacher in Seminole County. She is available to help families who are just starting out as well as more experienced families who need yearly evaluations.
Jan recommends a balanced approach to homeschooling that provides opportunities for hands-on and "delight-driven" learning. The mother of two encourages parents to keep long-term goals for their children in mind when choosing curriculum. These goals might include a great sense of self and a lifelong love for learning in addition to a strong academic foundation.
Jan has worked with more than 100 families in the area and has written articles on the topic of homeschooling for local and national publications. She homeschooled her own children for a few years before returning to work full-time. She currently serves as a language arts teacher at Page Private School in Sanford.
