Homeschool Open House 2007 Guidlines

Posted in Homeschool Open House 2007

If you would like to join “Homeschool Open House 2007”, here are the guidelines:

To participate simply write a post (as elaborate or simple as you want, pics or no pics its up to you) about any of the following, …

A short intro about you, how many blessings? How long have you been Homeschooling etc.. Just in case this is someone’s first visit to your blog.
Your Homeschool Day, what does it look like?
What curriculum will you be using? Do you not use a curriculum? Do you homeschool for FREE? Tell us about it!
Do you schedule your day to the minute or go with the flow with no real structure?
Do you homeschool in a homeschool room, at the kitchen table, at a desk, in the park on the grass?
Do you have any “must share” tips?
Do you have a question or concern? Throw that in there too!

**** If you are a mother who has homeschooled her children and your children are now grown and have left the nest we would love for you to participate and share some words of wisdom.

Write a post on your blog, copy the post link (not your homepage URL), and add your individual post link to Mr. Linky. It will be the easiest way for us to hop around and visit each other!

If you do not have a blog and would like to participate send me an email tiany@cox.net

You must spread the word! Please put a link back to the Open House on your post so that others can participate and visit other participants. You can use the Open House Graphic in your post or blog if you like. Simply right click and save the photo to your computer. Then upload the graphic to your blog through your blog provider or through a photo host such as photobucket.com.

My hope is that as we visit one another’s posts we will glean some wisdom and have some fun sharing our Homeschool day! May we encourage one another and share a blessing for another homeschool year!

The icing on the cake, the “Door Prizes “ can be viewed just under this post! Be sure to check them out! Also, please be sure to visit the many wonderful businesses and friends that donated such great door Prizes to make this event not only encouraging but FUN too! Prizes will be pulled and posted on August 16th.

Share a Blessing!

What awesome prizes, Tiany! You are so right~ we are blessed.
I plan to write a post, and in that post I will link to the homeschool tag that I just did today~ it answers alot of the questions you asked. In my Open House post, I'm going to update what we're using this year, and how we like it so far, etc.
This is going to be fun! Can't wait to read all the other entries.

Hello! I have been a "lurker" on your site for a while now. I am a homeschooling mom of 4 and I am very excited by this open house. I can't wait to read what everyone has to share. I am planning on joining as well so I thought it was time to come out of "hiding" and say hi! I have really enjoyed reading your blog!

Blessing,
Theresa

Wow! What a wonderful blessing to see all of the faithful giving! I'm glad you are being encouraged and are able to encourage others too! I have very little time this week to be blogging and such, but am always so encouraged by visiting your little corner. How do I add something to the open house pot? I have something I would like to donate and am not sure what I need to do. I am also not sure how to do the Mr. Linky's...sorry for my slowness! Well, I have to go for now. I hope to be on again soon, but you can just email me when you get a chance! Thanks for all the encouragement!

Wow Tiany, what a blessing. I can only imagine what you see from all this. God is awsome!!!

I have been working each night to write about our open house.

I'm not sure where I'm suppose to post it though. I know the date is Aug. 1st. I'm sure it's right in front of me and I'm not seeing it. Sorry.

Blessings,
Linda<><

Thanks for your comment at my blog, Tiany! I'd love to participate in your homeschool open house, it sounds great!

I'm having trouble seeing your font on your blog, however. Is it a special one, or maybe my computer is playing up... has anyone else mentioned this?

love,

Joy

Jul. 27, 2007 - Congrats. . .

I'm speechless!! What a mighty Lord we serve. He truly loves to bless us in the smallest of ways. How about hose bracelets, so pretty! Congratulations on your HSB of the week award!

On a more personal note, thank you for making some of us less involved folks feel special, during this season of homeschool and endless other things.
How nice it is to put some pep and fun in it all.

Thank You!

Thanks for the comment the other day!
I had just been to your blog the day or so before via nancysnook after I saw the banner, and i planned to participate, but I needed the reminder!

I think entering the Meme is a great idea!
This is really why I created it... to pass around some advice and experience! Thanks for hosting this!
Blessings!

I can't wait for Aug. 1st and it is coming up quickly.
I had wanted to go camping, but my beloved put a stop to it. To hot here in Iowa.

So I look forward to participating in this fun event.
What a blessing you are Tiany.

In gratitude,
Linda
