This is literally the best video on this subject on youtube lol
Thank you! Check out my others.
I am planning on homeschooling for the foreseeable future. My daughter is starting kindergarten next year and im focusing on that for now, and intend to do so through at least elementary school, but if life has taught me anything it's that I have no clue what the future holds so dont plan too far ahead.
I understand. It's good to know life is unpredictable. My oldest is now ending middle school grades and will be officially in high school next year. Because of homeschooling, we were able to use several classes for high school credit in 8th grade. The flexibility and customizable curriculum is extremely beneficial. Find a homeschool community!
My parents have had to adjust to distance learning. I have wonderful parents, who are engaged and have been very flexible. This has made the difference.
I'm planning to homeschool for good. This is my oldest and I just want to know the best way to go about it. I did pre-school very relaxed at home. I'd say he's somewhere between kindergarten and first grade currently.
Great to hear! So much of kindergarten can be learned through play and song.
I like using gardening, bird watching, and insect identification for fun outdoor activities that also count towards teaching time!!
Wonderful! That's where we might collect some samples or even draw what we see in a journal.
Thank you for this advice. I’m going to homeschool my kindergartener this year😊
Awesome! I'm so glad to hear that! Be sure to work in some crafts for the holidays. Construction paper and glue go far!
I'm researching homeschooling and your video was very helpful. Hoping to homeschool this year my kindergartener.
Wonderful, Tamara! Feel free to ask me any questions about kindergarten or homeschooling! I have a few other kindergarten and pre-k videos, along with some homeschooling ones that might help as well. :)
This video was EXACTLY what I needed. Simple,to the point thorough and easy to understand. Thank you so much. I'm clicking subscribe right now!
Thank you so much. I'm so glad it helped! I would love to hear an update!
My family is planning homeschooling as a permanent decision :)
Wonderful! There are so many resources these days. Just stay flexible and be willing to change and learn as needed. :)
Great video's, way better than all the other homeschool vlogs out there
Wow, thank you!
This is great! Thank you for posting these videos
Glad you like them!
I pulled the state standards for Indiana. There's a ton of what's expected for just math. I was surprised honestly. I don't see how anybody can get all of what's required covered in just a few hours a day. By the time we've covered just piano (it's therapy for him), bible (a few times a week), math, reading, language arts and handwriting it's lunch time and we're not done for the day. Are people not actually adhering to state standards? I feel like I'm missing something...
I can understand how you would feel overwhelmed. I took a peek at the IN state standards just now. You would be amazed at how many of those standards can get checked off by having conversations, playing games, and reading books with your child. Many simple math games or centers are play oriented for K age. I understand working in the morning, but having down time in the afternoon after play can allow for some games (file folder, apps, board games) that reinforce math skills. Some of the reading standards listed are an absolute MUST on being mastered in K. Others, may not be mastered in the sense of being answered perfectly on a test (K students usually aren't given state exams) but just need to be exposed and practiced. For instance, using words like "character" and "setting" or knowing various fairy tales. I recommend looking through them and sorting which items can be discussed when you sit and do read-alouds with your child (there are more than you think). The math standards (such as various counting) can be accomplished throughout the day (counting in a game, counting steps as you walk to your car, etc.). Don't forget to take brain breaks for him so he stays refreshed. If he doesn't have proper pencil grip, you can count scissor usage and play-doh as working toward handwriting. Letter School app will help familiarize him with the direction of the letter formation. I have a video on that too! So glad to hear from you! I'm selling. a product soon called "Kindergarten Made Easy." Keep an eye out on my facebook and Instagram feed. :) Let me know if I can hep you more.
This was very helpful. Thank you
So glad to hear it, Sherita! Blessings on your school year!
Hello. I’m looking to supplement my grandsons preK. He’s five and my bonus daughter has tried working with her boyfriends son to help him learn the three basics. So I’m lookin for ideas to help them be successful.
Hi, John! There are few things you can work on: With the area of reading: memorize all letters uppercase and lowercase and their basic sounds....(usually done via play or music/videos). If there is no proper pencil grip, you can work with crafting and cutting and throwing ball to improve motor skills. If pencil grip is good, you can work with writing the letters appropriately. Letter School is a good app to practice formation even if the child can't hold a pencil well yet. Rhyming is another important skill for reading (read rhyming books and play rhyming games). There's no replacement for reading books and asking questions as you read. It really builds vocabulary and has countless benefits! For numbers, counting aloud (in silly voices or even singing) and counting objects accurately and sorting them. Finding the missing number and understanding what is greater or less is of monumental importance as well. These are the highlights and honestly, I did NOT use worksheets to accomplish any of that at the preK level in my children. We played, talked, and sang. Any apps or tv shows were learning oriented.
@@TheParentTeacherBridge Thank you...
Love this!! 💙
Thank you! Please check out my other videos.
A friends little girl is 6.5 they waited a year . She went to school the first half but they are gonna homeschool her the rest of the year. Their question is should They have her go back to kindergarten next year or go to 1st grade ? She has trouble with her abcs
Watch all my videos on ABCs and follow those easy recommendations. I also have a mini course available for teaching the ABCs. She might have a learning disability if those ideas I give you don’t work well. For a 6.5 year old they should work in 1-2 months if followed correctly (unless there is some type of learning disability). Best wishes! Taking her out now and addressing the areas of struggle in a fun way is the best thing they could do! She might be ready for first next year if they don’t give up in the summer. Kids can soak things up quickly when learning isn’t so interrupted.
@@TheParentTeacherBridge thanks
For good!
Its so confusing what they should know and shouldn't know
Brenda, I like to start with the end in mind. What do I want my child to know how to do by the end of the year? If you're homeschooling, you can be a bit flexible on standards and be happy that your child keeps moving in a positive direction, making consistent progress. :) I'm releasing another K video this week!
Thanks
