CONNECTING HOMESCHOOLERS

<p> <strong>EPISODE 149 | </strong>The homeschooling landscape has changed dramatically over the last 20 years. With the advance of the internet, how we find things or communicate has radically evolved. It’s also altered how we interact with one another. The thrill of checking the mail or making sure everyone is off the phone so you can get that scheduled call is no longer a thing. Instead, we read messages instantly on messaging apps and social platforms which only show a curated view of other’s lives. Join Janna and her guest, Stephanie Cavin, as they discuss homeschooling now vs when they were kids, plus hear why Homeschoolers Connect was created. Plus, understand how letter writing connects students with their peers as they learn a multitude of things from spelling to delayed gratification.
