Ms. Catherine Jaime:  Homeschool Conference Speaker and Workshop Leader Details

Making Education 3-Dimensional
Does “school at home” seem difficult to you and/or your students? Does the school year end with a resounding “whew” throughout the family? Does school only consist of school books on top of more school books? Let Catherine Jaime, 30-year homeschool veteran and mother of 12, show you how to add another dimension to your “educational package.” lapbooks, games, unit studies, field trips, and more, are all part of another dimension of the educational experience we should want for our students. Whether you have just begun your homeschool journey or have been homeschooling for years, you will come away from this workshop refreshed

Teaching Teens: Enjoying Them, Not Just Surviving Them
Are your students in high school or preparing to enter high school? Are you nervous thinking about high school classes, credits, transcripts, college entrance, and more? Catherine has graduated 9 of her 12 children from high school at home, and will share with you many of the tips she has learned along the road to graduation. High School doesn’t have to be stressful for you or your students!

Teaching Teens: Shakespeare and the U.S. Constitution
Two workshops in one: In this workshop, Catherine Jaime, 30-year homeschool veteran, will share her insights on sharing these two important topics with your students. Good citizenship is not optional; it is a God-given responsibility. After teaching her own high schoolers for more than a decade, Catherine has become convinced that we, as Christians, need to give our students a firmer foundation in the Constitution, the bedrock of the U.S. Government. Additionally, she will show you how a good grounding in Shakespeare is part of a well-rounded education. What if we don’t know much about Shakespeare? Catherine will show you how to overcome that difficulty as you too prepare to share Shakespeare with your students.

Where Do Games Fit in? (Yes, Learning Can Be Fun)
Are games the reward at the end of a busy day or a busy week? Do they get set aside until after the “real school?” Let Catherine Jaime, 30-year homeschooling veteran, show you how games can be used as part of school—not just relegated to after school. Board games, card games, purchased games, family-made games, are all a valuable part of your “schooling.” Cathy will show you some ideas for turning up the “fun meter” in your school package.
