@@human_rights_activist hi there, I can’t say that I am an expert on any of those things. If you would like links to the language arts curriculum I use, I’m happy to provide
i think you might be confused about what "busy work" usually is... and i dont mean to come across as critical or rude, but helpful constructive info for meaningful content... busywork is typically simple, topic-related work that keeps kids busy and occupied but not necessarily challenged. it tends to be work that builds repetition, which some kids do benefit from, but for many, its just stuff that keeps your kids busy and on topic, maybe while you work with a sibling or other student. work that is too challenging for your student would not be "busywork", in fact all of the things you listed are the things that would build on your topic to bring the "easy" content up to grade level.
@@pagemayrand4956 hi there, thanks for your response. I see the value in busywork as it relates to repetition. If my daughter were a little older and writing well on her own, then the busywork might be appropriate for grasping each topic. But she’s not writing much on her own. I also said that I didn’t feel the program made a lot of sense in terms of its very junior content and its more mature expectations. This program likely works great for many families, but all in all, we prefer more hands on, in the field sort of living science. Thanks for watching
Excellent review and overview. Thank you for sharing mama! May you have a lovely weekend! 💖☺️

@@Rody-b6w hi! Did you see my McGuffey video from 4 weeks ago? That is our current reading program and it’s going really well!
