Benefits of attending a homeschool conference
Have you ever attended a homeschool conference? When I first started homeschooling I watched a “how to homeschool” workshop and it was suggested to attend a homeschool conference every year.
I honestly wasn’t planning to attend a homeschool conference but when you think about it, it’s like attending a workshop for your job. I attended teaching conferences every year in the summer when I taught, so why not for homeschooling too. After all homeschooling is a totally different ball game.
This year the opportunity to attend a homeschool conference opened up my state and my husband and I decided it was worth attending and we planned our family vacation around it.
The homeschooling conference I attended was the Rooted Home Conference @the.rooted.home. I had a wonderful time learning from veteran moms on the benefits of homeschooling.
Here are some great words that were shared today:
1. Homeschool families are the secret to saving civilization. (Jennifer Pepito)
2. Teaching faith, character, and relationships are our priority. (Stephanie Frediani)
3. Our goal should be to give our children the love of learning and a love for the Lord. (Trish Werner)
4. Find a homeschool mentor whether online, in a book, a podcast, or in person. (Jodi Mockabee)
5. Trust in God (Camille Fielder)
All in all, it was so wonderful to attend, learn some new tips and meet one of my mentors @jenniferpepito.
