Wow, how fun!!😊❤

I love your choices!

Congrats on winning free books! How fun! 🎉 Gunners Run is actually used in Heart of Dakota's 11th or 12th grade year, in case you want to save it for that guide. Great book choices! Blessings! ❤ Editing to add...you may want to preview the Uncle Eric World War 1 and 2 books as I've heard they present a political view and concepts not brought up in his other books, that you may or may not agree with. Just a heads up on those two to preview. 😊

Such a blessing and I couldn’t think of a better person to receive the giveaway. Thanks for sharing about the Lamplighter audio on Christianbook store. We are going to try on over the summer.

I'd be very interested in seeing a flip through of the Life Skills for Young Men book.

We'll be switching math curriculums this year. We have really only done Saxon but i found my younger 2 were not retaining what they learned so the 11 year will use MUS and the 14 year will be doing Denison math.

Have you looked at Denison Algebra? Kids who struggle tend to do great with Denison. I love the way it breaks things down for the kids.

Thank you! You have no idea how helpful your videos are!❤

I'm interested to see more on the science as well as language arts.

Exploration Education is so well done! My son did the Advanced Physical Science in 9th grade! Highly recommend!

I'm going to look into the Life Skills for Young Men! That sounds great!

Beautiful work!!!👏👏

hello! do we print off disc 4? Please help because i am bad at computer stuff thank you!

Oooooo!!! This looks fantastic! Thank you for sharing!

Top spiral bound Steno Pads work for this curriculum! Because the pages are lined and also have a dividing red line down the center, the left side can be for their spelling words and the right side is where they would write the correct spelling to compare

We are doing FixIt Grammar for the first time and boy oh boy, when IEW suggests to start *any* student at Level 1 regardless of age, they mean it! OurHOMESchoolPlan just talked about this and I sat there beet red, embarrassed, and super guilty. It progresses much quicker between lessons in the higher levels than the lower ones so if your child doesn't have a good grasp on the basics, they may easily founder when confronted with the deeper aspects. Your child might do OK, but others don't. Just a friendly piggyback on this for anyone interested 😊

We’re doing the same guide this year for our upcoming 7th grader! I can’t wait to get started back with HOD. We have missed using their wonderful books.

Would love a flip through of LA 7, please.

Thanks for showing us 😊 I am strongly leaning toward Language Lessons for my two boys, who will be 7th and 9th this coming year. Glad to see someone else using them too!

Thank you for doing this! I missed where you said you got the 50 states books from, was that Heart of Dakota?

Awesome! The 50 states sounds interesting. I am doing US history with my daughter going into 10th grade. It would be a fun thing to do as a family with my younger daughter who is going into 7th grade. What science did you pick? I think I remember you saying it was between Science Shepard and something else.

I dont know much about hod, thanks for sharing

I am so excited for the 50 states for younger kids review, i had no idea they had that study! Also curious do you use the HOD science also or something different? Thanks!

Thank you for your hs high school biology curriculum reviews. Currently banging my head searching for something that will fit our 14 yo who sounds like your son you bought this for.

I really appreciate this video! MUS has been one of our constants throughout our school years. The nice thing about that course, you can really move quickly through a level. We have used Saxon as well, we really like Nicole the Math lady for Saxon!

Look into Denison Math for PreAlgebra on up. Excellent teaching methods that makes math make sense!

Thank you for this helpful video. Math is a challenging subject for us. My oldest is really struggling in Algebra 1. It seems she is just a kid that needs a lot more repetition than what many curriculums provide. My 2nd child has a very short attention span, though she's starting to improve her math focus. She enters 9th grade next year, but I'm not sure what we'll do. She needs more practice with fractions and decimals, which we'll try over the summer. But MUS didn't work that great with her - maybe it was too in depth? I'm really not sure. This process is exhausting. My 3rd child is liking MUS, but he doesn't want to watch the videos! He's in Delta now. Do you think he'd be able to move forward in MUS without watching the videos?

I also have boys to teach, and they struggle in math with any curriculum. One complaint they have with Math u See (we tried for a semester) is they got bored with the same "type" of math all adding every lesson, or all multiplication every lesson. Did your boys complain about that aspect of not having some variety? I personally like Saxon because of the variety yet repetition through the lessons of past lessons. I do have two that struggle with focus and need variety to 'spice" things up but they definitely need the discipline it takes to master the basics. :)

We love Saxon but have only used 1 other math CLE or Christian Light Education, which is very similar to Saxon. I agree that reviewing and slowing down is so helpful. I have a 3 year old that I’m considering using a different math with him when that time comes. Thanks for all your tips. With 4 kids as well, I agree that they are all so different. Prayer is the key to it all!❤

This was super helpful, Rachel! My son is going into 7th but won’t be ready for pre algebra until 8th grade probably. I grabbed a used copy of Math U See pre algebra and plan on using it, but we’ve never done MUS before, so I hope it goes well.

I was there! It was great ❤️

I went too! I wish i would have seen you to say hi!

It was a great weekend! Glad you were able to go 🙂

Thanks so much for doing this! I have never been to a homeschool convention, so it was fun to see what it was like! You're such an encouragement ( especially to us fellow boy moms!)😁

I really enjoyed this!! Did they announce dates for next year's convention? My sister is planning to get married around that time, and it looks like we'll get to come back to the States! I'm dreaming of a way to include the convention in our trip 😍 Also, I'd love a video or advice on how to navigate SO MANY vendors with so many good resources! I feel like I'd want to buy everything haha. Any tips would be helpful!

I really enjoyed you bringing us along to the conference! Congratulations to your son.

This is the book you looking for Barbara Winton One Life: The True Story of Sir Nicholas Winton and the Prague Kindertransport

You are getting me excited for our conference! 😊 In Oregon, we have a small one that I have really enjoyed going to the past couple of years.❤

This was so fun! I wasn’t able to go to the convention this year so this was nice! 😁

I wanted to go to the Heidi St. John session on when your kids leave home, but I didn't make that one.

I'm the one who flagged you down to say hi and introduce myself - HAHA! I enjoyed meeting you in person! You've been a big encouragement to me!

I'm also wondering if you did a science course from the "101" series with the son you did this Astronomy class with?

Thank you for this review and flip through. We are coming off a year of Biology with Apologia in a co-op. Thank God for the co-op for the labs! That course was too intense for my daughter to do another one like it. This course looks interesting, but I'd like to know how much time daily did you spend reading? About an hour? Also, how did you assign a grade?

I saw you today at TTD and thought, How do I know her????? From UA-cam!! 🤣🤣🤣

I had to take a step back after my kids told me that I was obsessed with the curriculum research. I felt so bad. It’s so easy to get lost down that rabbit hole, since there’s so much to look at. You always have such wonderful discussions. God is truly guiding you! Thank you!

I'm so glad you talked about this because I am going through this right now. So happy I am not alone.

Looking forward to your upcoming videos and have fun at the convention, too!

Do you need the World Geography: Teacher’s Guide! It’s so expensive. I was hoping to use the first and maybe the second you showed.

Would you say “Unearthing the Bible” is more for fun to go with Bible and Science, or did it take the place of your science for the year? And did your boys end up liking this or the Earth Science more?

I’m enjoying your videos! I’m curious what math your son was using? Thanks!
