|
| Geographic Area Serving: Delmarva, but mainly lower Delaware |
| Description: This group is designed to serve anyone looking for support in Homeschooling. The ages of the children varies. We have a little of every age. We meet at the Bridgeville Church of God in Bridgeville, DE every other Friday from 1-3pm. The groups are not real structured. We believe that the children have enough structure during the week and don't want to add to any other pressures. We do have about 1-11/2 hrs of play time and after that we have snack time and either have show and tell or Writers Workshop where the children bring something and read it for others. We are still new and have lots of big ideas. We also have a Mother's only brunch every other month for the mom's to get together and share ideas on curriculum, support on another and make friends. We also have a pot luck dinner every other month when the mom's don't meet in the evening. At this time the kids, mom's and especially dad's get together to enjoy a meal together and fellowship. We try to fit some kind of education into this evening also. If you have anymore questions please don't hesitate to contact me.
|
| Requirements: There are no requirements though we are a Bible believing Christian group.
|
| Benefits: Every month we do at least 1 field trip. We plan to have a newsletter, a lending library as soon as we can get it together. We are also planning to have co-op's classes.
