Robey Memorial Library is excited to resume our Homeschool Show & Tell program, an engaging and educational initiative designed to nurture creativity, develop public speaking skills, and inspire a love for learning among homeschool students.

The Homeschool Show & Tell program is a dynamic and interactive series of sessions specially crafted for homeschool students of all ages. The program aims to provide a platform for young learners to:

  1. Explore Fascinating Topics: Participants will have the opportunity to speak on a topic they are passionate about and present it to their peers.
  2. Develop Public Speaking Skills: Public speaking is a vital skill in today's world. Through regular presentations, students will gain confidence and competence in articulating their ideas effectively.
  3. Encourage Critical Thinking: Engaging in thoughtful discussions and answering questions from their peers fosters critical thinking and communication skills.
  4. Build Lifelong Learning Habits: The program fosters a love for learning, promoting the idea that education doesn't end with formal schooling.

The Homeschool Show & Tell program is open to students of all ages. Sessions will be held monthly on the first Tuesday at 11am providing a consistent platform for students to share and learn. The first Homeschool Show & Tell session is Tuesday, September 2 sharing something you love to learn about. Topics through the year are as follows:

  • September 2-Something you did over the summer
  • October 7-Favorite holiday
  • November 4-Item beginning with “C”
  • December 2-Favorite food
  • January 6-Favorite movie
  • February 3-Item in your favorite color
  • March 3-Historical artifact
  • April 7-Favorite book
  • May 5-Favorite event you have attended

Guidelines for show & tell items: you must be able to carry your show & tell item yourself; the item must be appropriate for all ages; and it can be nothing too expensive or irreplaceable (we recommend a photo of such an item).
