Getting ready to start our first year of homeschool, for my 11 year old (grade 6) thank you so much for all the time and thought put into these videos. They are so helpful. And helped relieve some pressure. Thank you

I just want to say that your channel has been such a blessing!! I have an older child with dyslexia and a younger one who I foresee will also have neurodiverse learning. We have religiously done AAR and AAS with my older child who will be going into level 4. However, my younger one going into Kinder this year really struggles with blending and the automaticity needed to begin AAR level 1. I actually did the AAR pre-k with him and hoped he’d be ready for AAR level 1. He also went through before explode the code A, B, and C. I’m desperate to find something that will work for him….I believe he is a more visual learner….any brilliant curriculum suggestions…do you think this might be a better fit than AAR? I’ve entertained the Dianne Craft Right Brian learner…Help please :)

Thanks for sharing! We do some of the same things. Here are some other things we do, in case it helps anyone brainstorm. I switched to printing their first day of school signs on cardstock. I get one too, and any kids younger than school age. Last year we did handprints with paint on the back afterward. The papers with the handprints are already labeled this way! We use a prize store and each year I make changes to how the rules work and what the prizes are, largely based on evaluating what worked well and what didn't during the previous year. So it's fun to introduce that to them. We've tried different schedule systems (shorter terms, traditional quarters, etc.) for the year and I've always had something for the first week and/or last week to help shake things up and make it more tangible. That might be he week we do art projects, go swimming, skip a subject, do science projects, etc. Also a good time to make any necessary changes to routine, expectations or curriculum. I'm not always able to, but I try to have some time to reflect on all of that for each quarter or whatever unit we're using at the time. (5 or 6 week terms was helpful as a newer homeschool mom and with younger kids, but now full quarters are working better for us.) Out of the ordinary meals. Maybe a family movie night with dessert for dinner at the end of the week. New busy box items for younger kids. (I have one bin inside and a few bins in the garage by category to swap out with periodically.) Extra flexibility with the agenda as we work out kinks. (Something you do during that soft launch month.) I hand out new planners and make sure everyone knows what's expected of them for each day and each subject. I'm sure I have more things written down with my school stuff.

I love the sign idea!!!

hi

Thanks for sharing! I do 4 out 5 that you mentioned.

These are great ideas!!❤

which do you think would be more enjoyable as a read aloud? Chruch History (Carr) or The Risen Hope church history series? Have you read How Jesus Built His Church by Generations crurriculum? I read it this summer and it was fantastic!

I love these ideas! I have to nail down my ideas. Definitely a special breakfast. I could do gifts 🤔 I need to do pics…so many fun tradition possibilities! 🎉

I thought about the brave conference but we will be travelling for our last event!!! I love the idea of starting a month early!!! I grab bible studies as needed but not thought of grabbing them at the beginning of the school year!!! We can’t take photos in the same location with our adventurous life but we have many photos of them as we are about to start a curriculum!!!

This was incredibly helpful!!!

We just got the diagnosis for auditory processing disorder for my child and now we are ready to start. I feel overwhelmed and slightly hopeless.

How do you work in the audiobooks in your day? Can you listen while you read on scibd or is it only audio?

Thanks for the information. Really appreciated What’s the best place to get a good curriculum that you use that’s not app or on websites. We are looking for main curriculum 😅instead of supplemental apps. What would you recommend (Teen and toddler) And what do you use.

Look at all those gorgeous, great books! Looks like you guys will have a blast with this historical time period!

I decided to plunge and not enroll my 8th grader into school. I have friends who use mia academy and it has 8th grade. however i cant find many reviews on it for 7th or 8th grade. appriciate any thoughts. we are secular as well.

Would love to see this ❤

Great list! Thanks for including us.

This was great, just great really. Thank you it Truly was a blessing and thank you also for the verses

I so love your videos! New subscriber and first time homeschooling mom here. I want to be organized as early as now and I am grateful I found your vids. Thank you!

Inquisicook looks very good. Do you know if they have sales?

Hi there, just wondering whether you could use AAR Level 4 if your child has not used the other AAR levels? I did the placement test and she got level 4 but I'm not sure whether it is written in a way that it would be too confusing to come in at level 4

Thanks for sharing!

Thanks for sharing!

Thanks for sharing!

I prefer self oases classes for my kids!!! We’ve not use apologia and the book classes look awesome!!! My older kids do love classes thru a Aussie university and we love them!!! These are high school level so middle and high school level!!! Australia doesn’t have middle school so high school includes this age!!! I remember the biblo plan dvds as a kid and we still have them even though it was the early 2000s!!! My older kids are doing EP Biblical Hebrew and my oldest is doing awesome and he’s halfway thru so I know the younger ones will do as good as they get further into it!!! We are looking at elective online classes!!! My older kids and my 3rd grader surf and my 2nd grader is learning to swim so we will be doing this for PE!!!

I’m loving all your videos!

We are walking in 7th grade, and my son still likes to do work with me, mom. I'm hoping this year he becomes more independent

My daughter is doing apologia physical science with CC challenge 1. We are scared 😂 I did not know there were video lessons until watching this. Thanks!

Thank you Katie. I needed to hear #2.

Hi, fyi I think this is no longer available. I was looking for it!
