I was so excited to see your video! Thank you so much for the time and effort you put into your videos. Secular homeschoolers don't have nearly enough options for curriculum so its nice to see other people's plans for the year. I've always struggled with finding literature curriculum... We've tried so many out there but I think I'm gonna go the way you did and do novel studies. I have the rest of language arts figured out, thankfully. 😅
I love your channel! You are so awesome! I'm learning a lot from you and I look forward to your posts on IG as well. Your videos helped me to make some decisions on which curriculum I wanted to purchase this year. Thank you!
You're my favorite channel for homeschool curriculum and ideas! Your school is so cool! Wishing you the best this next year! My 2 oldest are also in public school. But I have 5 who are home/homeschooled. Each child is different, and public school can be a great fit as well!
I hope your son is doing great!!! One of mine went to public school for a year. It was devastating but I enjoyed spending more time with the younger ones at the same time. Hope you are doing well with the changes ❤
I love schedule videos! The schedule we settled on during 6th grade for our only child was: (times are approximate, but generally pretty close to this idea) 9:00 about 10 min. each for spelling, vocab, math facts drills, typing, and Fix It grammar 10:00 Outside play/exercise 11:00 Math and writing 12:00 Lunch with video lessons for science, alternating with history documentaries 1:00 Rotating subject (each day a different subject) one of: LA, science experiment, history timeline and hands on project, health, and art 2:00 or 2:30-ish Musical instrument practice (two instruments) 3:00/3:30 Done Then after-school activities, and at some point independent silent reading for about 30 min., or longer if we didn’t have a lot going on that day. And we do read aloud after dinner/before bed.
I always look forward to your curriculum picks every year! I love how tailored the choices are to each of your kiddos. Looks like it will be a great year.
I enjoyed seeing your picks! I always give my kids the option of returning to public school as well. I think it’s important they have a say in the matter.
Awww my mama heart goes out to you with your oldest son. But, every season brings a new experience! Good luck in your new journey. Always enjoy your videos.
Great video as always. I’ve been using the Sylladot curriculum you mentioned in your homeschool convention video back in 2021, plus the moffat girls phonics thing you recommended and OMG!!! 🥹🙏 my son is now a 1st grader reading at a third grade level. And he finishes a whole level workbook from the sylladot curriculum in a as little as 2 months. His learning is at beast mode lol. So appreciative of your videos you have no idea. I can’t thank you enough 🤗❤
Thank you so much for this! I look forward to your curr picks every year! Looks like you have a great year planned. Later in the year, I’d love to hear how Sassafras astronomy is going. I’ve always heard it’s young earth, so I’ve never looked into it. Maybe I’m wrong about that. Thanks again!
Thank you !! As far as I know sassafras science falls under neutral ,, I didn’t even think about that to be honest 🤔especially since ‘young earth ‘ is mostly found in religious curricula. I’ll look through the study guide and get back to you !! I
I kept looking for your video crossing my fingers you would post, lol. I’ve tried following you on insta but it won’t let me . We are also secular and it’s so hard to find truly secular content. Thank you for the hard work and inspiration.
Thank you !!! I’m sorry , I do monitor and screen my insta followers… you can try again 😊 I think I recognize your name ,, most likely you have no profile picture usually I don’t approve people with no profile pictures😂
Always look forward to your videos! What days do you all do history and science? Just on Fridays? I was going to make our Friday's elective days as well but I just am having a hard time trying to fit everything in. Lol. What do you create your novel study printables on? They look so good!
Hi ,, we have always done Electives just on Fridays,, the way we're able to squeeze everything in , is by only doing electives!! we don't do any language arts or math on those days. this coming year we're going to do History and Science on Thursdays and Fridays. Art and Spanish only on Fridays
Hello new follower love your video… question about Culture studies you do for your younger one where are the study’s from and books? If you don’t mind me asking…
Hi yes if I can figure out a way that I can delete his book information since it is customized to the books he’s reading I can definitely put it up as a free printable on my TPT
This year I just went through the literature guides MCmarie (TPT seller) had ,, as soon as I realized I had a bunch of those books in my personal library,, that’s where I began creating my list.
We’re going with word roots and aar also! Looking forward to hearing how everything goes. Just subscribed. I also have a channel mainly about homeschooling and happy to be able to connect here!!
New viewer here, hey there. Thanks for posting this. I'm curious if you already speak Spanish, and if so, do you find a curriculum helps you teach your kids vs organically in daily life? I've tried Spanish curriculum for my kids but it's frustrating for all I of us. But when I just talk to them in Spanish as we do things they seem to retain more. I wonder if I'm just bad at teaching it or if I haven't found the right lessons.
So I already speak Spanish fluently it was my first language one of the curriculum that I found that I really like. I’m probably gonna start it back up. It’s flip-flop Spanish. It’s more of a conversational Spanish. There’s no workbook it’s just conversation and picture cards and if you don’t speak Spanish, you could also get the audio.
Yes,,, Mc Marie on TPT … we love those literature studies. The are very well rounded in the sense that you get Vocabulary, grammar along with literary comprehension
que buen plan de estudio, es interesante saber lo que proponen en otros paises, gracias por enseñarnos, espero pueda aceptar mi solicitud de instagram se lo agradecería

9:00 about 10 min. each for spelling, vocab, math facts drills, typing, and Fix It grammar
10:00 Outside play/exercise
11:00 Math and writing
12:00 Lunch with video lessons for science, alternating with history documentaries
1:00 Rotating subject (each day a different subject) one of:
LA, science experiment, history timeline and hands on project, health, and art
2:00 or 2:30-ish Musical instrument practice (two instruments)
3:00/3:30 Done
Then after-school activities, and at some point independent silent reading for about 30 min., or longer if we didn’t have a lot going on that day. And we do read aloud after dinner/before bed.

@@HomeschoolOfBelAir thank you so much!
Hi. Love all your curriculum for 6th grade. Could you share your literature sheet that you made with what your son needs to read each day?
Hi yes if I can figure out a way that I can delete his book information since it is customized to the books he’s reading I can definitely put it up as a free printable on my TPT
@@HomeschoolOfBelAir thank you! That would be awesome!
Thank you for sharing your curriculum! How do you chose your sons list of books he will read for the year?
This year I just went through the literature guides MCmarie (TPT seller) had ,, as soon as I realized I had a bunch of those books in my personal library,, that’s where I began creating my list.
@@HomeschoolOfBelAir So simple yet genius! Makes perfect sense. Thank you for taking time to respond and for your videos!

Re: I’m trying to find the literature studies 😊… Was it McMarie on TPT? Also, how did he/you like them?
Yes,,, Mc Marie on TPT … we love those literature studies. The are very well rounded in the sense that you get Vocabulary, grammar along with literary comprehension
How or where can I find the novel study notebook items
How did you make the reading log?
I use PowerPoint !! Eventually I’ll make a video on how I use PowerPoint to create pages
@@HomeschoolOfBelAir yes, please!
