Are you frustrated with your child’s progress – but aren’t sure if it is really a learning problem? Learning Specialist and veteran homeschooler, Sharon Hensley, will guide you through the process of thinking about “special needs” in a homeschool setting. What exactly are special needs? How do you know if your child has a special learning need or is just lazy? Is it important to have a diagnosis? How do you get services and testing? What if you don’t want a label – can you still make accommodations for your child’s learning differences? Are attention problems a “special need”?
