I’m starting my third year homeschooling twin 4th graders. We’ve used sonlight curriculum the last 2 years and we’re looking for something different. Trying to learn more about masterbooks to see if it would be a good fit for us. I wish there were a way to talk with other parents that have used this curriculum and see what they think about it.

Thank you so much I just did it with my cousin

I would love a video on your insights on CRT. I raised my children at the kitchen table and with 8 children it was more of a small schoolhouse environment. 😊 Still, my answer to some of their inquiries was often "Think it through" in the hopes of developing their critical thinking skills. My older set of children are engineers and data analytics folks now, but teaching them to think "out of the box" is one of the many beauties of homeschooling. Also, I love that you are traveling with your children and exploring other cultures with them. We did this with our children over the years and it was extremely insightful. In fact, for a few years we hosted 4 Chinese students for the summers to introduce our children to the Asian culture. Then they were able to visit China on a mission trip and visited with two of the exchange students that had stayed in our home. Thank you for your service to the homeschool community. Homeschooling is close to my heart. It has been a joy watching your videos. Blessings🌺

Yes, SO important to determine your child's learning styles. As a homeschool mom of over 20 years, understanding this was immensely helpful to me and many homeschool moms I spoke with over time. Thank you for speaking in this. Blessings🌺

Thank you so much for your videos. I have been homeschooling over 20 years now and one of my last children has dyslexia challenges. As I have 8 children I have learned that each child is beautifully different. Your comments were excellent and so very encouraging. I love your voice and the way you clearly and succinctly explain each process. Thank you for blessing the homeschool community. Your advice is spot on. Your children are very blessed to have you as a homeschool mom. Blessings🌺

I love your reviews. So balanced. We did Mia for a year and half (1/2 of 2nd grade, all of 3rd), it really saved me from crisis mode of "WHAT AM I DOING?! AM I DOING A HORRIBLE JOB!?" and brought back my LOVE of the opportunity of home education. It was great to be able to pull up from grades below things that we missed or needed more reinforcement or pull down from the grade above for subjects she was excelling in. I will note that If you don't do the accompanying printables to reinforce each lesson it can be VERY LIGHT material, with the focus being highly on incredibly repetitive quizzes (for 2nd it felt appropriate, by 3rd it felt far too light). We are switching to Moving Beyond the Page for 4th and after seeing your review on that I'm SO excited to do so, but it feels great to have Mia in my back pocket if we need it to rescue us again!

Hi 🤗. Jesus/God paid for our sins on the cross so we don't have to. Please turn to him to be saved. God bless❤❤

When I was younger I learned so much history with historical romances. And remembered it because of the characters.

We started with the $1.99 only 1 week ago for my 5 year old and we absolutely live it! I couldn't imagine sending my baby to public school for 8 hours of a day to strangers for 5 days a week. I love my children and want to protect them but I also want them to have a quality education! Homeschooling is awesome!!

I’m a SAHM so we simply couldn’t afford preschool and I was happy to be home with them. But our Kindergarten is a 7hour day, so the year before we are sending our oldest to a two day a week pre-k program so Kindergarten wont be such a shock to her system. And at this age she seems to crave lots of interaction with kids her age…. And I could use a little break. 🤞it all works well for us.

We only use the hands on history part but my kids love it.

I used some of the BookShark Language Arts with one of my kids. Due to dyslexia he was taking a while to get to that fluent reading stage. He had the foundational knowledge but needed more practice reading and less drill. He knew the rules. The Book Shark Language Arts program turned out to be the perfect bridge he needed to build that fluency and confidence. I still have the program in case my youngest needs it for the same reason. If she doesn’t, the books are still fantastic to just read on her own.

We're trying some Sonlight this year. If it's too much structure and too many books in a year, I still bought a lot of good books that we can use without the guide.🙂 Thanks for this video. It's helpful.

PHONICS, PHONICS, PHONICS!!! Whole Language SUCKS!!!

Is there something like this but Christian? Trying to find something with videos that don't break the bank

Any curriculum advice for 13 year old with dyslexia and dyscalculia and Autism? Please and thank you 🙏

ummm

Yes, they probably learn better because of individual attention BUT they could have problems later on because they never socialzed at school

Misconceptions I got told often is if I teach my kids together either the elders one would be stupid and would not pass grade or the youngest would not learn anything as he won't understand. Backstory they are in elementary have 2,5 years age gap. And I only teach reading separately rest of the subject just give the harder questions to the elderly. :)

Excellent info

i love you mum

ok

I literally became a teacher because I loved seeing my young child "get it" so many times. The light on their face just filled me with joy, and I wanted to share that with others!

I would LOVE a review on IXL maybe compared to teaching textbooks🤗

I came across montessori philosophy a month ago and I am fascinated by it! Thank you so much for making a pros and cons video! I have a question related to montessori school. In my area, I only find 2-3 montesorri schools that accept children under 2, and there are almost 3x as much that accept older kids, for example 2.5 - 4 yo and on. Would you recommend that I send my daughter to non-montessori pre-school until she reaches 3 years old? Or is it crucial to get her exposed as early as possible? My original plan wast to send her to one at 18 months of age. In other words, what age group is crucial fora child to attend a montessori school to get the maximum benefits and a strong foundation? Thank you!

Hey ... Maam according to you what will be the definition of Montessori method?....

I 100% agree with curriculum not being the first step. I have so many people ask me for homeschool advice and they want me to just tell them what curriculum to use. I can't do that! I start asking them questions, like - what are your goals? What do you want your days to look like? Do you need your kids to be pretty independent, or do you want to be more involved in their daily learning? You'd be surprised how many people tell me - they just want to know what curriculum to use or never answer any questions. I really feel like people could save SO MUCH hassle by answering some other questions and looking at their bigger picture and understanding their why BEFORE choosing a curriculum. Curriculum is a TOOL, not a rule book.

Yummy that looks delicious

i love it

Good work!👍

I love Time 4 learning. Absolutely love it. I'm a Christian and I add my own Bible curriculum with.....The Bible. The Bible is our curriculum and I know Time 4 learning is secular and I love it. If you don't agree with something you can skip over it. Love it

People on work floor and a psychiatrist thought that I’m difficult person not correct!!! I think and do thinks diffent because i’m neurotypical persone!!!

Love your reviews. Fun and engaging editing. Thank you. Could you review Guest Hollow geography Jr and Nancy Larson Science? I’ve been looking for more information about these two for my rising 3rd grader. Thanks again.

Good informations

Thank you . Beautiful point

Me and my sister were probably 1 years old when you filmed this I love this video!

My favourite are when one just finished screaming and I just "huh we are done" and then the other one start screaming 😅

Are you serious mum

mum!!!!

You are beautiful

mmm...hmm

We are considering Montessori for our 6 year old....toured a school today. We wish we had enrolled him when he was younger. He did traditional prek. Do you think it would be too challenging or, even, unwise to enroll him into Montessori at this age?

Great program I really wanted to like it but it has a few glitche issues that was very frustrating for my kids especially when they were so excited to start the program smh

Would you recommend for kids grade 4 and up?

ok?

Not a parent here, but why not try to incorporate housework into homeschooling? I'd say housekeeping skills are just as important as math. It would also teach responsibility, organization and cleanliness skills.

Is there a difference between preschool and pre-k? Do you think it's necessary to send children to pre-k?

I have unschooled since they were born, tried homeschooling here and there but never sticks and never last more than a few days. My kids don't have huge interests, my girls,13 and 9 like to play barbies all day and my son sleeps all day and stays up all night....My youngest can't read yet, although she is starting to read and spell 3 letter words...My son started reading on his own when he was around 2ish, and my middle child was reading at 7 or 8...I always wonder if I am doing unschooling right...

Am I neurodivergent or a product of neglect?
