What can homeschoolers do for extracurricular activities?

sometimes large bookstores (like Barnes & Noble) sponsor book clubs. Or, if there is some sort of email list or newsletter connecting homeschoolers in your area, you might be able to locate some other teens for a homeschooler book discussion group of some sort. Our local group had a great activity a few years ago where they put the pigs from “Animal Farm” on trial). Also see if your community has informal classes intended for adults. That’s a good source of writing workshops.

How about ballroom dancing? That seems to be gaining in popularity among college age people, so it would be a useful skill to acquire. Even MIT has a ballroom dancing club. And you don’t have to be particularly athletic/graceful/coodinated to do it.
