I, also, am interested in information on helping homeschoolers. We have a
large population of homeschoolers in our community and supporting them is
one
of my goals.
Thanks.

Hello all.
I saw on the list that someone subscribes to a Thomas The Tank Engine and
Friends Magazine. The children at my library love Thamas but I never knew
that there was a Thomas Magazine.
I deleted my prrior meassages in error so I am not sure who posted that they
have this magazine could whoever it is please send me the subscription
information.
Thanks

Patricia,
We have had two Homeschooler Socials
at the library. The adults
visit
and get to know each other, while we do a storytime for the children. We
ask
each family to bring a snack to share and we provide drinks. The families
seem to enjoy the chance to share ideas and sources, and get acquainted.
We
also keep a running list of homeschooling families in the community who are
willing to be resources for families considering homeschooling or who are
new
to the area.
I also have monthly book groups for
homeschoolers aged 8-11. Boys
and
girls meet separately to discuss the book, do activities related to the
book,
and have a snack.
