Go on over to Principled Discovery, where Dana has creatively posted the 81st Carnival of Homeschooling. She has created a post where we are taking some time off teaching for some professional development. Teacher in-service days mean no school, so help your young scholars find something to do while you peruse the offerings. Whether a quick tip or research into how children learn, each presentation is designed to help you become a little better teacher and parent, with just a touch of controversy to keep it interesting.
