Rachel’s Special Needs Workshops:
Thursday noon-1 p.m.
Homeschool Your Child with Special Needs
The idea of homeschooling a child with special needs or learning struggles may seem overwhelming, but there is freedom when you understand that the requirements and red tape in the school systems do not apply to you. Not only can you provide consistent instruction using strategies that work for your children, but you can tailor their education based on their specific needs and interests.
Thursday 4-5 p.m.
Tips and Tricks to Teach Your Child with Special Needs
Teaching a child with special needs requires flexibility and patience. When parents understand their children’s learning strengths and struggles, they can modify their lessons to create an environment of learning. In this workshop, I will help you understand the learning strengths and struggles of some of the most common disabilities and give you tips and tricks you can use in your lessons to promote learning.

Homeschooling Children with Different Learning Styles
Each child is unique and has specific strengths, weaknesses, and learning styles. So, how do you teach such a wide variety of learners in your homeschool? Start by looking at your child’s needs, strengths, and interests. Then, look at your skill sets. And finally, find the curriculum or learning environment that best meets the needs of your family.
