About This Activity
Our Homeschool Enrichment Program combines academics, creativity, and community in a mixed-age learning environment where each student is challenged at their own developmental level. Students begin each day with a Community Lunch, building friendships while practicing teamwork, responsibility, and life skills through shared meal preparation and cleanup. In the afternoon, Storytelling Workshop invites students to explore creative writing, theater, filmmaking, and oral storytelling while strengthening communication, literacy, and critical thinking skills. Through narrative, descriptive, persuasive, and informational writing, students make connections to history, geography, culture, and current events, discovering how stories help us better understand ourselves and the world around us. Daily schedule: Community Lunch (12:00–1:00 PM) Storytelling Workshop (1:00–3:30 PM) MEET THE INSTRUCTOR: Julie Devita (they/her) is a homeschooling parent who has been an educator for 15 years.
