Strong Foundations:
What Every New Homeschooler Needs to Know
Considering homeschooling? In this foundational session, Jennifer Henn, a 19-year homeschool veteran, shows you what makes homeschooling uniquely powerful for child development. You’ll discover how to care for your child’s intellectual growth, physical wellness, and academic progress. Jennifer shares the key factors that help homeschool families persevere, while acknowledging that successful homeschooling looks different for every family. Whether you’re planning for early learners, middle schoolers, or high school students, you’ll leave with a clear understanding of the primary goals for each stage. Lastly, she’ll provide an understanding of legal requirements.
Core Curriculum Confidence:
Math, Language Arts, & Beyond
With the abundance of curriculum available, choosing where to begin feels overwhelming. Since math and language arts are essential foundation subjects, Jennifer demystifies the selection process for you. She begins by explaining the differences between various math and language curricula so you can make an informed choice for your child. Each participant receives a comparison sheet of math and language curricula. The second half covers curriculum approaches for social studies, history, and science. The session concludes with an overview of valuable homeschooling resources.
Beyond Compliance:
Building Relationships that Last
Homeschooling is parenting on steroids! Twenty-four/seven, you’re home with your kids. Some people don’t homeschool because they’re afraid they’d fight with their kids all day. Jennifer is often asked how she got her three children to do their required schoolwork and chores while maintaining peace in the home. Her parenting advice has been published in Focus on the Family magazine multiple times, and in this final session, she explains how she developed a great relationship with her three children that has lasted into adulthood. She’ll end by discussing what social skills your children need to become well-adjusted adults. Jennifer is happy to dispel the myth that homeschooled children lack social skills.

Innovative Homeschooling:
Unlocking the Potential of Nontraditional Learners
Take advantage of the freedom homeschooling offers. Don't simply recreate the classroom in your home—there’s a better way to teach children with learning differences and advocate for their success. In this workshop, you’ll gain confidence and learn strategies for teaching core subjects, test taking, and leveraging your child’s strengths. Jennifer successfully homeschooled her dyslexic son (now a building automation and controls technician) and her autistic daughter (now a parks and recreation leader for the city of Acworth). Both are thriving and have opportunities for career advancement.
Ethical AI and Assistive Technology Use in Homeschooling
This workshop offers practical guidance for homeschool families navigating tech choices. Discover when technology truly assists learning versus shortcuts that diminish essential skill development. Learn practical guidelines for introducing AI tools at appropriate developmental stages while preserving crucial math and language foundations. Let’s discover how to raise independent thinkers who can master foundational skills and leverage technology as a genuine tool for learning success.
Our Neurodivergent Homeschool Story:
A Mother/Daughter Perspective
Hannah Henn, a homeschool graduate, shares the stage with her mother, Jennifer, and speaks candidly from firsthand experience. From elementary school through high school graduation, they will share the victories and struggles of navigating sensory issues, social interactions, anxiety, and learning challenges. This presentation is designed for homeschool parents seeking an understanding of neurodivergent needs.
Why is My Child Like That?
Do you feel disconnected from your child or wish they would just ‘get it’? Often, these misunderstandings occur because you and your child think and learn in different ways. Once you understand your child’s learning style, simple modifications to their learning environment can eliminate recurring frustrations. In this workshop, Jennifer provides you with tools to identify and better support auditory, kinesthetic, or visual learners. You’ll leave with practical insights to implement immediately.
