Loved the WITL vlog. Fun to watch. Your editing problems made me laugh -- with you, not at you!

How do you go about selecting/hearing about the books you choose? My TBR is limitless.

I really enjoyed this type of video! Thanks for sharing.

I spent quite a bit because I wanted to see everything and I use literature-based curriculum. Too much impulse buying. But now that I've seen so many of the curricula that I was interested in, next year will be much more restrained because I will already know what I like and don't like.

Obsessed with The Green Bone Saga! Hope you like it and Mistborn. Song of Achilles is also my favorite book.

I appreciate your video and look forward to seeing your posts when I have down time. I find the way others do their homeschool fascinating. I spent WAY too much on curriculum this year and was convicted to do better for next year. I have already shopped EBay and went to a garage sale to find a bargain on a big ticket item on my list! Even if I can’t find a deal on what we need, my son is getting a great Christian education and I’m spending a fraction of private school tuition.

I loved June farrow! That’s the kind of time travel I love!!

Why do you think your older son had Covid twice? I barely survived Covid, so I try to keep knowledgeable about the changes and prevalence of the illness.

Thank you for sharing ! I feel less alone in wanting to still use this curriculum while remaining secular.

Wow your skin is FLAWLESS! Pretty

I was disappointed by The Frozen River too. I DNFd it, actually. What cult books have you enjoyed? I am fascinated by cults, but haven't read many books about them.

I got the massive one! 😂 I’ve used a Walmart one for years and wanted something new. Hopefully I won’t regret it, I think the spiral is a great idea! Where do you do that?

I used Beowulf Grammar last year for my 4th grader and I did 3 days a week. This year I am continuing it and I brought it down to 2 days. We have only done a few weeks of school this year but I am definitely enjoying 2 days a week better with a 4 day schedule. If I did a five day schedule I would do 3 days a week. I really enjoy it and so does my daughter!

Love these! Thank you for inviting us into your process. I begin BYL LVL 3 + 1 on Monday! I am very excited.

It sounds like you had a wonderful first month(aside from being sick) Your coffee mug is adorable!

Hey sweet friend. So glad everyone went well this year and there was no need to adjust curriculum. May you have a another good year. 🙏☺️

I am glad your family is feeling better and I love your coffee cup!

Nice video! I am here for the book videos!

Sorry, you had covid. My husband has had it three times! He gets it every year, sucks to be him. I've heard a lot of people talk about build your library. What are your thoughts? One of my goals for this new school year is to be more organized. I'm definitely doing my "research" by seeing what other mamas are doing.

I’m glad you’re getting better! We always get sick at the beginning of the year too, usually around September 😭😭😭

I haven't heard of this math program before. How have you been liking it? I spent much of the summer looking for a new math program for my son.

Oooh, I think our FiveStar Flex Notebinders would work perfectly as an Interactive notebook that doesn't require gluing pages in(its one of my biggest pet peeves😂) i can just hole punch printed worksheets and fill in with the notebook paoer as needed! I might have missed it but did you mention around how much it cost to buy all the books? We don't have a very good library system in my area(KY) they do offer intrastate library loans but those can take a few months to receive and you only get the book for 2 weeks. There's also a 6 book limit which shocked me when I moved to our current county, previous counties had 10-15 book limits. I'm looking at BYL for next year but I don't think it would work out unless we bought all of the books.

How did Denison Math go? Will you use it for algebra?

Feel better! Mexican Gothic is one of my favs 🖤 highly recommend for a fall TBR

I know all of our experiences are different. However, I'd be interested to know about how long you spend each day reading out laud. Also, do your kiddos read 1 book a day? I'm not sure exactly how much work going into all of this... but I am SUPER interested in this curriculum!

Great video. We are using Denison Math and LOVE it! ❤

I honestly can’t stand geography or science type books with drawings and prefer pictures, so the fact that the National Parks book has more photos than drawings is appealing.

Where did you get the activity sheet "I'm excited to be in 4th grade"?

Where did you get your homeschool planner?

If you're up for the planning this program has so much richness in it. I love that it can be a resource year after year. You aren't missing much in the guide. I did buy it before I bought the full program, and I was disappointed that there wasn't really anything in it that wasn't freely available either from their podcast or on the website.

Thank you for this list. We read some of the books that you mentioned. My son loved Hatchet and My side of the Mountain. He loved the Giver and we watched the movie as well. We read The Long Walk to Water in 5th grade and I didn't know there was a documentary. We will check that out. I made a list of the books you mentioned and hopefully we can do some this summer. We are currently read The Princess Bride, which is very enjoyable.

We use this and love it so much!

Great flip through! I look forward to seeing how this works for you throughout the year. I think the how-to guide is sold separately because you only need it once. You don’t need to print it with every unit. But I agree, it’s a bit odd that it’s sold separately. If you go to their “Catalog” link and look at their planner, you can see a planner page for Writer’s Workshop, which I found helpful.

Thank you! This will definitely help me out. I was a little confused with the writers notebook and didn’t really want to have to purchase the extra thing for it so thank you for sharing that!

This was helpful! Thank you :)

Hi! Just discovered your channel recently. Nice room! We have the same set of table chairs. :)

The closest IKEA is two hours away from us. We usually go a couple of times a year and we have so many IKEA storage units holding school supplies, books, and toys. I would be in so much trouble if it were just down the street 😂

How much time do you all spend in here during a typical day? Because I would never leave.

Denison is amazing! I hope he loves it

Im wild bc these are literally my favorite types of videos

Ugh, I didn’t wanna think about this yet. But you popped up so I guess it’s time.

I’m wondering how does BYL handle language arts specifically the book studies? Do you focus on literary terminology or just comprehension questions?

Did you do the rebinding on your own? Any tips you could offer for that?

Thank you for this flip through, my rising 7th grader will also be doing Denison this year. I’m excited for this

I've seen a couple of reviews on Amazon saying that the paper is poorer quality for the 2024 planners, compared to previous years. I like the latest layout, but the quality of the paper would sway me to an earlier version... what's your opinion on the paper quality?
