I can't wrap my head around the fact that you have eight kids,taking care of them, homeschooling, having a successful UA-cam channel and still have time to read books! I only have two kids and my life is a hot mess, keep going Angela you are amazing.
Yap...she's amazing...
So true!!!
No idea why I was so excited about this video. I’m an 18 year old public school kid.
I'm 26, don't go to school, have no kids, but here I am lmao it just seems satisfying to watch I don't know why.
I was wondering if you found special needs books for Rosie. Our daughter with Ds is now 40 yrs old! She did a combination of special need and regular classes throughout public school. I always wondered why they did not use phonics. They used sight words and she can read at a 4th grade level. She started teaching herself cursive as the teachers said she could not learn it!
She has now worked in the Mail Room at the Department of Commerce in DC for 20 years and has earned good paychecks and has quite a large money invested. Hope that is encouraging for you.
Ty for sharing, very encouraging!
I’m a special needs mom and I just loved reading your post ❤️
Amazing!
that’s so cool!!
I have a daughter with DS. Thanks for sharing this!
Don't take AP classes! Instead, look for a college to do dual enrollment at (in NC it's called Career & College Promise). That way you earn college credits for free! She could potentially graduate with her Associates completed. I just graduated from a 2 year school and my best friends were high schoolers, one a life-long homeschooler. She can also join clubs and other activities on campus.
My high school didn't even offer AP classes, instead we had College in Our Schools where we could take classes at the HS for college credit. This was great because the closest colleges are 45+ min away.
I agree! I took AP English in High School and was able to be placed in a higher level in college. I still had to take the same number of English classes as others who didnt take English AP courses.
Yes! With duel enrollment, + CLEP options it’s great! The group on Facebook “homeschooling for college credit” is quite helpful!
I’m 27 and I keep play dough in purse. I fiddle with it in my hands when I’m feeling anxious. It helps a ton!
I don’t even have kids, nor am I still in school but listening to your voice it feels like I’m talking with a friend. I sound so cheesy right now lol but it’s so true! ❤️
I homeschool my children, too. We have 3 graduates and currently I am schooling the 5 remaining at home. Good haul!
Do you mind telling me what your level of education is?
I really admire that you don't want to sugarcoat history, Angela. That rocks and I wish more folks had that impulse. To that end, definitely check out A People's History of the United States by Howard Zinn. It is a history that focuses on the role that Indigenous peoples, People of Colour, and women played in America's history. A Patriot's History was written in response to it, as the author thought Zinn was too critical of the traditional narrative. I think critical thinking is good, though, and I love that Zinn looks at the role of everyday folks in changing the course of history.
Thanks for this recommendation! I'm on the hunt for materials to teach US History that isn't white washed.
Thank you, THANK YOU for sharing your homeschool recommendations! I just spent some time examining the Masters Books Language Arts and Math curriculum. Our son has Down Syndrome and is reading at about a 4th to 5th grade level. Almost every LA & Math curriculum we have seen over MANY years has been either way too complex or overly simplified for his needs. This made it necessary for me to be very creative. My heart leaped when I saw Masters books curriculum because it covers so many Charlotte Mason bases in uncomplicated, story form. My son loves stories! While he is now 23, I am still working to extend his skills to give him the best possible opportunities in life. I can’t thank you enough for opening our eyes to new and improved possibilities. Bless you!
I admire anyone who homeschools because I couldn’t handle it.
LEGIT 🤣
Girl am saying the same thing 🤣
It’s one of the hardest most rewarding things in the world!
I just want to say a huge thank you! I started watching your declutter series during lockdown and was hooked. I have basically binge-watched all your videos (here and This Gathered Nest) and totally fell in love with you all! Thank you for getting me through
I had no idea that my heart would get so happy about a homeschooling haul.... Apparently, I’m interested in homeschooling. Lol. Baby girl is Benjamin’s age though so I have some time before I start buying ALL THE CURRICULUM!
It is never too early to start thinking and imagining a lifestyle of learning for your family! We are finishing our 8th year of homeschool. We love it!
I love how much you love books and that you use them for study when you do your topics on animals etc. I work in a school in the UK and it saddens me that we’re moving towards essentially teaching kids to google things constantly. Yes online research skills are important but there are so many incredible informative books out there!!!!
My kids and I loved learning about Grandma Gatewood. My daughter did a social studies project. She was an amazing woman. And we walked a small section of the Appalachian Trail.
We just watched a you tube family with 6 kids hike the AT last night! Youngest was 2 and oldest was 17! It was such an inspiration!!
Thanks for the book inspo! I love books also!!
So interesting to me to hear dialect differences. Up here in NY, we call them the App-A-Lay-Shin Mountains.
I noticed the difference too. Here in Arkansas we say it the same as New York. That's very interesting...ha!
I say it the same in the Chicagoland area!
We say it your way here in Iowa
makennnzie same in Illinois (Chicago)
We pronounce it like this in Maine too
I always love seeing your homeschool haul videos they inspire me so much to start homeschooling my 3 year old who has special needs and intense feeding issues.
I’m interested in how you plan what you are doing. Everyday, the day before, a week in advance, monthly? Or if anyone knows of any good resources to learn about this. Thank you!
great question 👀
These are my favorite type of videos! 😍 Thank you for sharing your homeschool haul with us! I can't wait for your curriculum haul video! 😁💜
Ohhhhh the book studies from TG&TB look amazing!
I homeschool my 5 kids and my oldest is starting high school this year, and it's all new territory all we've started our research already as well.
I love the rainbow resources website, they have so many great options and all about reading curriculum for beginners has been my favorite, hands down!! Just thought I'd mention it to possibly help out. ☺️
the coping skills workbook would have been something I would have extremely benefited from while I was in school. I always struggled with anxiety and angry outbursts because I had no idea how to channel my emotions. it makes me so happy to see that you acknowledge those feelings and are trying to help your child work through them instead of ignore them. my childhood would have been so much easier if someone had taken the time to help me work through my anxiety and frustrations
Patriots history is also offered on CD and is wonderful. Don’t be surprised when you do pick up Patriots history and find yourself reading it cover to cover. It’s very good!
Can you make a video solely on the subject of History? Specifically how you choose your curriculum that fits your Christian faith but doesn't sugar coat actual events!
Rebecca spooner came out with a new curriculum that includes all your subjects in one unit each month and her history is real like what you are saying. Christian but no sugar coating. She has free samples you can try and see for yourself. Gatherroundhomeschool.com Changed my views on homeschooling and how I wanted my family to be raised. I tired The Good and the Beautiful and it just wasn't a good fit for us.
How does Christian history differ from ‘regular’ history?
Alli D probably more of a focus on what was happening with church history at different points in time while other notable events were taking place
That is exactly what I would be looking for if I decide to homeschool! I would love a biblical worldview but one that tells both sides of the story not just “father Serra was a great man who brought Christianity to California.” For example.
Thanks so much for the video and all of the information. I always like to see what other homeschooling moms are using and what they like or dislike. Hope you are having a blessed weekend.💕
I’m just a mom of three grown boys and grandmother to 7 teenagers, families matter, love your vlogs!
Since you are thinking of high school, it might be nice too look into online courses or a few lessons in areas that you don't know about. My high school offered some as an elective senior year and it helped me to find things I enjoy. Courses like programming, game design, web dev, drama, other foreign languages, etc
Hi Angela- This may be off topic, but I noticed you and CR hates when it rains because the yard gets soaked. I had this same issue last summer so I hired a landscaper to put in French drains (EZ Flow drains) and poof, the soggy yard was gone. Best Buy EVER!. It wasn't that expensive. If you want to know who I used, let me know. I live in Huntersville, NC
You are definitely right. That’s EXACTLY what we need. Thank you!!!
We added a French drain in our yard as well. We have a U-shaped house around a pool, and in heavy storms the water would back up onto the patio and into the “U.” Nightmare. It solved all our problems immediately and you’re right...not that expensive!
you are amazing!! such an inspiration. I found your channel maybe a year ago. I found your videos so interesting, and little did I know I would be homeschooling as well.. lets just say I feel so confident and that is thanks to you and all you have taught us here on your channel!
Ooh, I think you're talking about Colleen over at Our Blessed Life as the homeschool mom from SC! She is such a wealth of info for high school curriculum (and homeschooling in general!)
Consider taking a high school logic (elective) credit for that logic book for your 8th grader since it is high school level.
My kiddo is going into 7th next year so with Kennedu being a year older it helps have ideas of what curriculums to look into. I loved the LA options you got for her. I'm definitely looking into those for her 8th grade year!
I LOVE my proclick binder! We do gather round and print new units every month so it's been a must!
I’ve heard a lot of mixed/negative reviews about gather round. How do you like it?
Thank you! I homeschooled our children through the young grades and now they are all in public school but if school doesn’t go back to normal in the fall, then I will be homeschooling them all again! I’ve been deep diving into curriculum so I’m prepared to order as soon as we get word what our school district will be doing❤️ This video was helpful to see some 8th grade stuff since my oldest daughter will be 8th grade next year
When I was in 8th grade, we did a whole congressional hearings unit where we learned about the bill of rights and the constitution and it was great we were able to look at Supreme Court cases and how they applied to the constitution and how to defend every amendment and what they mean to us as people. I thinks it great for everyone to be informed about this topic and perfect for 8th grade year because it gives you a sneak peek of what is to come in high school with history. In my case, we were already learning about the revolution, so the constitution fit right in. But if you do think you should wait on the material, it would be great for when Kennedy takes APUSH(AP United States History) or U.S. History. For the APUSH exam, it is always helpful to have examples of events or ideas that connect to the topic you are writing about in the exam. For the 2 sections of the exam you are required to provide outside evidence, so having knowledge of Supreme Court cases would certainly not hurt. Let me know if you would like any more information about AP History, I have taken AP European, APUSH, AP World: Modern, and AP Macroeconomics, as well as a few other APs and would be happy to make book recommendations.
Two of my AP history’s were independent study, so I have in-depth knowledge of the material as well.
Yay!! Love book haul videos!! You will love homeschooling high school! We just graduated our daughter and can’t wait for my son to start high school curriculum in August!
How nice,you learn the kids about Corrie ten Boom. She’s from The Netherlands and so am I. 🇳🇱 Wishing you lots of success with your homeschooling.
We live in Minnesota and all three of my kids got into a state school with a very simple transcript that said basically English 9, 10, etc; Geometry, Algebra, etc; Biology, Chemistry, etc; basically just what they did and then their grade. I followed HSLDA’s simple transcript. I saw other people put a ton of effort into a transcript that no one cared about.
Oooo my favorite kind of haul💃🏻
🌿Eaman
After watching Fight For Together do the AT with 6 kids, I felt sooo inspired! I would love to do the PCT with my own kids. 😍
I really appreciate the preparation and thought you are giving to the transcripts and record keeping for your high school years. I was home schooled, and I now work at a local college as an advisor for dual credit students. I love working with home school families, as dual credit is such an awesome addition to their home-education journey. However, I am shocked at how often parents send me an editable excel sheet--electronic and unsigned--as an "official" transcript for admission. It will serve your kids well for you to put a lot of thought into how you prepare their official documents! I enjoyed this video and look forward to homeschooling my own kids one day.
I read the patriots book my first year in college for my US history class. It’s great and super informational as you can imagine. That’s the year I actually started to appreciate and really love history.
I remember my kids reading The Light and The Glory in their Christian school and telling me about it, so I read it, too. It really intrigued them! You may already be well aware, but it’s a GREAT perspective of America that looks at our founding from God’s plan and His purposes.
Grandma Gatewood's Walk is a fantastic book! You will love it! She's amazing!
Loved this video. Would love more like it. I bought the Patriot’s History, and What the Robin Knows, and am interested in The Naked Communist (he also wrote “The Naked Socialist”), great suggestions!
Thanks for sharing your smiling face with us this morning! Nothing brightens such a dark time more than books. Knowledge is the key. Thanks for this video! Books are my happy place too. I've been on a thriftbooks.com bender.
Hi! I enjoyed your homeschool video!
We don’t have homeschooling system in Japan, so it is very interesting for me to know what you need to do homeschool.
I think homeschooling will spread around the world more and more in the future because of the corona virus!!!!
IDK why I find this kind of supply haul so cute. I'm also a Vlogger & aodre you so much. ❤😘
I love your recommendations! Thank you so much! The last 3 years you've helped me as a mom so so much
I remember in 8th grade we learned a lot about the Bill of rights and U.S. government. Some of the hardest content for me to memorize were important court cases that changed history.
I love my pro click!! I've had it for 6 years and use it for everything! I'm not a binder girl, but I'm for sure a pro-click girl. It saves so much space while we are working. I hope you live it too!
I LOVE my proclick! I have 3 different size spines. My advice is just make sure papers are in it straibefore you punch! More than once, and especially when I first got it, I would get going and have them not so straight and they would get punched wrong. You can also cut the spines if you want to bind workbooks and stuff on the top!
This is my favorite season of UA-cam videos! All the curriculum and haul videos. I am about to order that coping skills book, thanks for sharing!!!
I know you aren't Catholic but the lives of Saints are very inspiring. If you are doing WWll St Maximillian Kolbe is a good one to read about. Simply, he took the place of another man in Auschwitz.
Love your channel.
Like all the books special the one to help you with emotions. The family calendar looks awesome! Thanks for sharing!
You're such a good mom
That was very informative and great to see what you will be doing with your ychildren.
You have inspired me so much to start homeschooling my children. I'm new here to your channel and I'd love to learn more about how you can become your own school...idk how to get started on how I can start myself. And if you can give me any advice on how to get started that would be so much appreciated!! Thank you for your time 😊
Hi Angela! I really like how in your homeschooling, you focus on teaching accurate history to your kids, sometimes diverting from the “sanitized” version that’s in a lot of history textbooks aimed at children. I’ve found that Patriots History is not great for that - it really minimizes the issues of Native American genocide and mistreatment over the centuries, Japanese internment camps, that kind of thing...Definitely above your kids’ current level, but I’d really recommend Howard Zinn’s A People’s History of the United States - it really isn’t afraid to dive head-first into those tough topics. Great video as always!
If Rosie (or any other kids tbh) is into music then I’d definitely recommend looking up Jolly Phonics. There are free videos on UA-cam so you can decide before you buy, make sure you choose the American English though, I made the opposite mistake at first! It introduces phonics using catchy songs and goes up in levels based on the complexity of the letter sounds. My older kids join in singing the songs with the littles too
Not a homeschooler, not a mom, just love you and your videos! PS I had the encyclopedia of animals as a kid and LOVED it, I was public schooled but my parents were really good about getting me additional materials for specific things I was interested in. My childhood best friend and I would read out of the encyclopedia for fun when we hung out together
It’s incredibly rare for people to home school in the UK, but I would have loved to be home schooled with those types of books. 💛❤️💙💜💚🧡🤎🤍
I subscribed to the grimwade family on UA-cam and they are homeschooling in the UK if you are interested 😊
Oh! So excited about the coping skills workbook!! Thank you!
TGTB History Year 1 has a big book of stories like year 3 does. It was SO much fun for us!
I love homeschool haul videos. Can’t wait to see the curriculum videos!
This is our first year using masterbooks, my son uses some second and some third grade, we are loving all that masterbooks has to offer! The curriculum is fantastic!
Hiking the Appalachian trail is our families bucket list to! Yes other families have done it on UA-cam its so cool just know like anything today lots of people were threatening to call child services etc bc of their kids hiking the app trail..so sad thats what ppl think is abuse when their just trying to have pure family time and teaching good values!!
Thank you for this video!! We are new to HS as of last year and have learned soooo much from these videos.
That coping book sounds perfect for me and my 3 year old
My son gets so frustrated when he can’t do something and starts throwing objects so I definitely will have to look into that book
We used The Good and the Beautiful history 1 last year. It has been my favorite history curriculum in the 10 yrs I have homeschooled!
Thank you for sharing. I got a lot of great ideas. Always appreciate the things you share. God bless!
Both Animal books are exceptional I am the homeschool coach for the family I nanny for and both are favorites. I just started using the Bill of Right book and manual - love them. The Bird book, 8th grade used for science journal work
I love books too!! You are a supermom, I can't believe on top of everything else you do that you home school your kids as well! Love your sweet family and seeing your videos The books sound amazing and I have added them to my reading list!
Grew up in NC and travel there often. Have you ever thought about doing a coffee chat or mini conference for those interested? I would love to "sit at your feet" as a new "er" homeschooling momma (3 years in and still learning lol).
How Then Shall We Live by Fransic Schaefer is also a series free on Prime Video and it’s excellent!
The Coping Skills workbook! I was just researching emotional regulation curriculum for my 1st grader. I was looking at The Zones of Regulation (which is I think what his kinder teacher used) and the Big Life Journal. I'll check out this coping skills workbook, too. Thanks for this video. Mom of 4 and first year homeschooling over here.
Definitely like that calendar! Have a great day Braniffs
HELLO! FAMILY IS FOREVER. THANKS FOR SHARING THIS VIDEO. 💖💖💖
Love your homeschool videos!
I was wondering if you teach evolution to your kids even though you are religious? Just curious.
I am a homeschooling mama of 3. I just found your channel and I'm also from NC!
I got my niece and nephew these awesome books about mindfulness/growth mindset stuff. One is 6+, the other is a teen one called Big Life Journal. Not telling you what to do but just adding onto to what you said about your anxious etc child 😊
I would love it if you could talk about your approach to tricky subjects that standard american curriculum usually doesn't cover. Like alternate histories that focus more on black & POC history or non male-centered history that has been erased in standard history text books. With everything going on right now in the country (and has been going on for the centuries), how do you approach subjects like racism & misogyny? Do you have any supplemental books you have your kids read about this subject? I love that you got them the book about critical thinking & deciding court cases. It seems like a great way to help your children form their own ethical & moral belief system. I know it can be uncomfortable to talk to your audience about subjects that may end up being controversial, but I think its important to speak about how you are teaching your children to combat racism and misogyny, especially when you have 3 black boys and 7 girls! Thanks, love your videos and appreciate you sharing about homeschooling
The pro clicks are great for homeschooling and easy to reuse.
As you're planning high school be sure to check into your state's dual credit (college) courses availability! As a homeschooled student I now think that those courses really helped to prepare me for full time college!
My daughter just did the Helen Keller one this year (she’s grade 8). And we also bought the grammar and writing guide.
I always love these hauls and recommendations, even when the topic doesn't apply to me at all. Definitely looking forward to the books though, as I finished yours in a single day already.
Finally another mom of many that loves non fiction books! I subscribed becuase of that 😂 all my friends love fiction and even my husband loves fiction but I only read non fiction unless it is a readaloud for my kiddo.
LOVE the coping mechanisms book, my dream is to get this into the curriculum one day❤️adore this content!
Just curious, if come high school your children wanted to go to public school or private school and not be home schooled, is that something you would consider?
There is a great picture book about Grandma Gatewood!
Wow. It looks like it's a lot of work to home school just one child & you have five in school! I've seen everyone basically fall into an exhaustive heap when their schools are ending the past few weeks just from home schooling the past few months because of Covid & they had teachers doing the curriculum. I have a new found respect for home school parents that do it full time.
Your book choices look great! Thanks!
I wanted to say you are an awesome mom. I am so glad I cam across your videos because they inspire me to want to do more and introduce more topics to each of my children. I am so glad you said you live in N.C because I do as well. If you don't mind would you let me know what all our state requires for homeschooling. I have been homeschooling my children with the k-12 program and this year I pulled them out to do something a little new and fun. If you could help me I really will appreciate it so much. I don't know if we need to keep a portfolio for each child or not. Thanks for your videos.
I also want to add that knowing some of the cases were helpful for later AP U.S. history
Your hauls look exactly like mine! Love me some books! Thanks for the Coping Skills Workbook suggestion, I bought it just now for my 2e son!
I read "Grandma Gatewood's Walk " last year and it was good. Definite descriptions of domestic violence throughout it, but like any other book you can skip over anything you don't think is appropriate during read-aloud. I also want to do the Appalachian Trail. I've completed the Long Trail in Vermont.
Those history books look awesome!
We have been enjoying many of Masterbooks curriculum. I like the Language books. I plan on ordering Logic and some of their other high school history books.
I'm not a mom but I find these videos so interesting! I would have loved to be home schooled when i was a kid
Thank you for sharing that logic book from master books!! Exactly what I was looking for for my 9yh grader!!! And love that it's a Christian perspective.
