HUB Weekly Update: Re: [homeschoolhub] Fw: File

Welcome. If you aren't signed up for the newsletter yet, you should do that. That's where most of the info on local events, classes, and activities is shared. Also, you might want to check out the website hshub.org. There's a good "Getting Started" article. (You can sign up for the newsletter there, too.)

I also HIGHLY recommend Linda Dobson's book "The Homeschooling Book of Answers" which is one I read when I was considering/researching homeschooling. It has answers from homeschoolers of all types to any question anyone could think of from academics to special needs to socialization--the "s-word"! :-)

I'm Jill, and my husband is Dan. Avery is almost 5, Luke is 3, and Jace is 18 months. I'm originally from Pennsylvania, but live in St. Joseph currently. I am just a "prospective" homeschooler who has been doing a great deal of reading and research over the past several months on homeschooling/unschooling, and I really wanted to join this group now to get a sense of what kinds of activities and support are out there for homeschoolers in this area of Michigan. So, I'm not using a specific curriculum yet, and in regards to offline group involvement, I think that would potentially happen in the future if we, as a family, decide that homeschooling is the best option for us. My daughter will be "kindergarten" age in the fall, according to a typical school year.

Thank you,

Jill
