The Essentials of Learning Language—Your Own or Another
In this workshop, parents will break down the basic elements of language in order to learn how to approach grammar, writing, and foreign language instruction at home.  The practical application will include using Scripture to teach parts of speech, punctuation rules, sentence structure, and writing techniques.

Classical, Christian Education Made Doable
In this workshop, parents will get a synopsis of the classical model and how it can be implemented with children ages 4-18.  The workshop will address historical examples of a classical, Christian education in action.  Finally, parents will learn how to implement the one-room schoolhouse approach which allowed 16-year-old men and women to teach students of all ages.
