Mission Statement: Empowering home school and all parents with the knowledge and skills they need to better serve their children's diverse educational needs.
This article is to
inform my site visitors about our Home Education Connections website. This website is designed to
assist parents who
choose to home school their children in
providing the best possible education for their children by providing them with knowledge and resources normally only available to public school teachers. The products and services offered on this
website include an education consulting service,
school supply products, and curriculum programs to enhance your home school programs. We include information about teaching the
different subject areas to increase the home school parent's knowledge about child development and teaching
strategies
The website is
designed to “empower home school and all parents with the knowledgeand tools needed to better serve theirchildren’s diverse education needs.” According to Hilary Clinton “it takes a
village to raise a child.” The website advocates this philosophy and therefore
created a message board where home schoolparents
can forge connections
with other and their children can form connections to other attending childrenhome school. Part of this
connections
building is the opportunities the website will provide from time to time where
home school students can participate in science fairs, poetry and writing
contests, writing to e-mail pen pals, etc. These types of connections are vital in
raising well rounded children.
One of the arguments
made by opponents of home
school is that children
who are home schooled lack social skills but it doesn’t have to be so.
Community opportunities to enroll children in sports, theatre, dance and gymnastics are available
in even most smaller towns. The site educates parents on where to go to find these resources for
their children to
participate in. Whatever the interest of your children, there is always something out there that
caters to that interest. Many parents only lack the knowledge to find those resources.
The site invites parents to add content
such as lesson plans, teaching tips and ideas, and articles to share their knowledge and experience
with other home schoolparents. No one
person possesses all the knowledge
necessary to the education
of children but
through our homeschoolconnections community we
can find the knowledge
and resources necessary to home
school our children
with confidence. Welcome to the Home SchoolConnections
community.
We hope you like
what you see and if you don’t see what you want ask about it on the message
board designed to let home
schoolparents
help other home schoolparentsor e-mail
me at jls.globalsolutions@gmail.com
and we will try to include it in the future. This is your site and together we
can create an environment conducive to the learning of all our children and provide a
truly quality education
for all children
regardless of our choice to educate them through a home school format. We at HOME SCHOOLCONNECTIONS are dedicated
to “RAISING THE BAR” for the education
of home schoolchildren and their parents.
