- #HomeschoolMom #HomeschoolMorningRoutine #HomeschoolRoutine We are excited to bring you along with us on our 2018-2019 school year morning routine! We give some glimpses into our morning schedule, some of the curriculum we use, and some of the reasons why I love homeschooling so much.
Edited to add: I am so grateful for the amount of people who have watched our homeschool morning routine video! Unfortunately, I have been unable to keep up with the amount of requests for our CC board. Because of this, I will no longer be sending the file out to those who request it. I know, yuck! I'm just a mama over here trying to keep my kiddos and family first and not be on my laptop working so much. Thanks for understanding!

This is sooo awesome!!! Im sooo scared to homeschool my kindergartener but my heart tells me is the best option for him.
I’m scared too but something I have to do it seems ..
I forgot to mention that your husband was hilarious with that prayer lol I bet Jesus wouldn't cut me out! Lol thanks for sharing your family and homeschool journey
He is such a mess, haha!! :)
I can’t wait to start !!!! I’m gonna do this with my three boys all the ages. 8, 11, 14 !!!
We can’t wait! We just a slower start, a way to cultivate our hearts and stop the rat race!!!!
Your channel is inspiring and your tips seem so helpful.
You have GREAT kids....and you are a GREAT mom, and wife.
Love this video! I've always wondered how a day goes for a CC family. And it's always fun to get a peek inside what other people do!
I love seeing how other families do it too!! :) xo
Great video I love seeing how other mamas do it! I never saw myself as a homeschool mom and it became the best option for my kids so I feel like I’m still learning.
I love seeing how others manage their days, too! And I am right there with you, always learning and growing
New subscriber!! I love your homeschool home it's so relaxing and cozy and giving me ideas for mine.
Thank you! It is definitely not fancy or Pinterest worthy, but it IS cozy and comfortable! :)
@@ThisBlendedHouse That is exactly what you want though! I was thinking of turning my den into our homeschool room but not sure. I usually do living room/dining room. I love your container on the table with the plant and candle 😍
This was a wonderful help for me. I’m just starting to look into homeschool and seeing your routine was really helpful especially with a bigger family.
Yay! Glad the video helped!! xo
This is a helpful video! I have a 5 year old, 3 year old, and 6 month old baby. We just started CC in fall 2018 (as well as just homeschooling , too) and I am still learning how to do our days. I'm loving it but there is definitely so much to figure out and learn about how to do homeschool. I appreciate your thorough look into your mornings!
So glad I found you! Very helpful and you are amazing!
I just found your channel and have enjoyed the videos I’ve watched so far! Your husband during prayer...I bet Jesus wouldn’t cut me out 🤣 Also, I love Less Junk, More Journey!
What a busy mama you are! Such a beautiful family!!!💗 Thank you for sharing! Fellow homeschool mama of 3 boys! 💗 Your Monday is our Tuesday! I have learned to love Mondays and the rest of the week just flies by!!!😀
Thank you so much! Thanks for watching and commenting! :)
We have 3 boys and our “ go go day” is Wednesday’s! It’s hectic but it gets us moving. You’re so right, learn to love it and it isn’t so bad!
I think that it's great to have both 0aeents involved with morning routines and the kid's schooling
I love this. My struggle is when it’s time for me to work with the older kids after lunch I’m always so exhausted and I want to be done. It’s hard to teach my older kids when I’m so tired.
I have been there many days!! xox
Simply awesome!
this is awesome, thank you so much for sharing this wisdom
Thank you for this insight!
Ahh Im so glad I found your channel. Really really enjoyed this video. Can’t wait to watch more.
Welcome! I'm so glad you enjoyed it! :)
Okay your husband’s bit was definitely my laugh of the day and beyond!
He def keeps us laughing, lol! :)
Woooow!! You are an absolutely incredible person!!
Yay. I’m a new subbie. I love smaller channels. They’re the best to me and have the best homeschool videos.
Yay! Welcome! Thanks so much for your kind and encouraging words

Welcome Bethany, and thanks for watching! xo
New subscriber! I loved your day in the life and that added time with your husband home was so special! I’m totally interested in the teaching you do on the side 🙌🏻 amazing job!
This was a great video! I have seven kids ages 5-15 and we have been homeschooling for 12 years. We are considering doing classical conversations next year for the first time and this video was really helpful. Thank you!
I just did a Ruth devotional. New to your channel! Thanks for sharing this:) what a great and busy day.

He is ridiculous sometimes, lol!!!

Awesome Morning Routine ! CC sounds cool to get into.
Thanks! And CC truly has been wonderful to be a part of! :)
So glad to hear your perspective as a VIPKiD homeschooling Christian. Following!
New subscriber!! Lovin’ your channel!! We are a homeschool family in WV!
Thank you for this. It was so Mich info for me Ian a new home school mom and trying to organize my day for homeschooling is so new to me. Iam just used to taking kiddos to school and then do all the chors m self.
I'm so glad it was helpful! I know when I'm beginning something new that it helps me to see how someone else is doing it...having a picture painted for us sure can be helpful! You got this, mama! xo
Loved watching this video, new subscriber to your channel! So happy I found ya!
Aww! Thank you so much for watching and subscribing! :)
I'm so excited to watch! We're a CC Family too :)
Can't wait to check out your channel! :)
Awesome job, momma and kiddos! This was a wonderful video... I subbed.
Thanks so much for watching, commenting and subscribing, Melissa!
I have co op to it is a lot of fun it’s for church community kids and it’s so much fun
LOL "those are not my arms." Great video! We have our first day of CC tomorrow and I'm so excited! We have our two in Foundations (K and 2nd grade).
haha! I hope you all have a wonderful CC year!! We start this Monday :)
We watch them👍
Love! Your husband is hilarious lol
He definitely keeps us laughing!!! :) Thanks so much for watching and commenting!
Cc mom here! Love this video . Always looking for morning routines
I also teach vipkid 😄
Thanks! I totally love watching morning routine videos too :) And I love meeting fellow CC moms!!
This was helpful! We are getting ready to start CC in the Fall and I loved getting a visual of how your mornings go. How long do you spend on each "subject" typically?
Thank you for homeschooling.
Loved this. I have 4 kiddos. And I love the songs u used to help the. Memorize facts,cycles and language roots?
The fraction for 1/6 was very helpful. Lol I would erase erase erase. How do u plan which Latin sections you teach first?. I'm incorporating French and asl as well as Spanish. This was very helpful on how to manage my homeschool. New to it.
Thank you for sharing. This helps me. As I will be attending a CC meeting next week and am really trying to understand how it all works in conjunction with using other curriculum.
I'm so glad! I know I felt really lost about what CC was and how it would fit into our everyday homeschool. And every family does it differently! I can say that CC has been a huge blessing to our family. The community and the information they memorize has been such an anchor for our homeschool.
@@ThisBlendedHouse Awesome, ty for responding.
Love your mornings! Do you have a copy or link to your chore print-out? I just love the idea of keeping it fresh each morning!
Aww, I sure don't have a blank copy. It's just something I put together on PicMonkey :) It's def been a system that's worked long-term for us!
That prayer was hilarious, you should've let him finished!
lol! We get so many comments about that part of the video!! :)
Yes humor is so important
I loved this video and it totally inspired me!!! I really struggle with structure and my kindergartener just really disliking school. He’s brilliant but he wants to create and play instead. Any advice for a first time homeschooling mama? Do any of your kids prefer no workbooks?
You guys are seriously the cutest family and cutest marriage ever! Thanks for letting me have a peek into your life! Very helpful!
Thanks for sharing? Where did you get your memory board poster? Love that!
The tutor trainer at one of our practicums emailed it out to all of us. I'm happy to send it to you if you leave me your email address :)
You made a great video.
Thanks so much! Means a lot, especially as a new UA-camr
HI, I loved this video! Thank you for sharing! but I have a question. How do you do to keep them concentrated in their assignments? If I focus on one of my child's assignments the others immediately go to play :(
I’m new to homeschooling and I love how calm and organized you are
I use abeka I'm interested in trying horizon math. Thanks
New subscriber, sweet sweet family! Our family structure is very similar, however my husband and I both work full time. I am starting homeschooling this year for the first time with my 6 year old, 4 year old, and 5 mth old! Prayers would be appreciated 😂🙌
So glad I found this! I teach with VIPkid as well and homeschooling too. We are thinking about using CC for next year. Do you feel like using CC to teach some of the lessons for VK?
Hi Claudia! I teach levels 2 & 3 with VIPKID, so it is all very basic. However, I have a CC friend who teaches the upper levels and she has told me several times that Essentials (CC program for 4th - 6th graders) has been a big help in helping her teach grammar to those upper levels! :)
@@ThisBlendedHouse yes! I teach L1 -5 so I see, just from your video so much that I could use with those upper level kiddos.
I’m just rounding out 3 seasons of homeschooling my kiddos today! Yay! They still enjoy to read, write, math! That’s a win for me! Your morning routine video was a blessing and inspiration today. Thank you taking the time to post it. I am curious what your daily timeline looks like! Do you have one? I know that’s specific and we moms float through tasks list rather adhere to specific time constraints, but I’m curious if you were doing all the subject work from like 9-noon, then lunching? Or were you lunching at 1p?....I somehow need some time optimization tips :-D....We always seem to start around 10a, then lunch by 1p and I totally haven’t figured out how to get through all that material. You’re my hero! You do such a beautiful job. Blessings!
Our timeline is exactly what you saw in the video! :) We typically break for lunch around 12:30 and then the afternoons are spent with me focusing on the needs of my older girls. We are currently in summer mode so things are looking very different, but we are still doing a few subjects a few days out of the week. Hoping you find your rhythm!
Question where did you get the CC songs that you had on the laptop? Loved watching this video
They are all from different sources! I usually type in the week and subject I'm looking for in the UA-cam search bar and then I pick the best options I find from there! Example: CC cycle 1 week 12 history/science etc :)
Thanks
Thank you for showing a piece of how Classical Conversations works. I just left an information meeting about it yesterday. I believe it is just what we need. Waiting on the Lord for confirmation.
You're welcome! He is always so faithful to show us the path we should take! :)
I'm a fellow CC mom! Where did you get the worksheets on mastering the squares?
Hi! They were from CC! I got them at Practicum last year. They were only $5 and ABSOLUTELY worth it. If you get them, put them in page protectors and they can be used over and over for drills :)
I heard that the giving of a sandal was sealing a deal like a handshake
I’ve been debating if I join CC again or not, we do TGATB, so I enjoyed watching your other video. Thank you for sharing!! I have a question, did you buy the big panel where you write the CC weekly info on their website? Can you share the link?
I had a fellow tutor send me the file for the board we use. I'll be happy to send it to you if you send me your email address :)
id love to know where you found the outline for the memory work poster you blew up.
I had a tutor friend send the file :) If you email me at homeandarrows@gmail.com I can send it to you! There was a while there where I simply could not keep up with the amount of requests for it, but it has since slowed down
What curriculum for free do you recommend for kindergarten for a mom spanish speaker ?
I was curious about homeschooling and your video gave me an idea of how it is like. I wonder how you get the time for chores around your house and cooking/cleaning. Don’t mean to annoy you but I’m trying to figure how I can accommodate it.
Can I please have the file emailed or can you link it in the description box above? Thank you, I believe I requested this last year if I'm not mistakened.
Can you send me the link for the poster?
Just came across your video! Any chance of sharing your CC memory board template?! Love it! Thank you!
I stopped doing that a while back because I couldn't keep up with the requests! If you leave your email address I may be able to send it to you :)
I would love it as well 💗
Can someone send it to me, please? My email is: alemenendezz@gmail.com Thank you 💕
Im from the Philippines. It is my first time to watch you and I am inspired by you. Im about to start to homechool my 8 yr old daughter this year and I really want to use the classical curriculum. Is it toolate for her? Thank you.
Jenskie Cordz VLOGS it’s never too late! I started with my 7 year old, and 11 year old! They are thriving! ❤️
Hi! Love your videos. Wondering if you only do memory work from CC? I’m considering CC for next year and I ve been using TGTB but it’s very different from what CC offer especially for essentials and Challenge A.
Hi Becca! I have kids in Foundations and Essentials. Next year will be our first year with a child in Challenge. We do CC memory work, but we also use TGTB :) We use their handwriting and Language Arts course books. Their LA books, as you know, incorporate more than just English grammar which is the main focus of Essentials. I have found my Essentials girls benefit from both! Next year, I will not have my Challenge A daughter do TGTB Language Arts as she will have PLENTY of work to keep her busy :)
Home & Arrows Thank you! Always wondering if the grammar they get on the TGTB it is enough, cause when I look into essentials looks like a lot. But maybe I’m wrong😆
Essentials def is intense! BUT, I'm not sure that you can really prepare for it? ;) They teach you what you need to know as you go! BUT, I feel like TGTB does a great job of setting a good foundation for it!@@sweetbecca4608
Home & Arrows thank you, love your videos.
I want to start homeschooling now but worried about reading since I struggled with reading myself .
I love this! Your routine is an inspiration to us as I seek to make our morning routine smoother for January. We are also in CC this year. Can you please share where you got your dry erase memory chart?
Hi! If you send me your email address, I'll be happy to send you the file we used to make the board! :) I had it printed and laminated at Office Depot 2' x 3'. I too am looking to make some adjustments in our lives to make 2019 a smoother year...hugs, mama!
Home & Arrows Thank you so much, I’d love that! It’s momzest@gmail.com
@@momzestlife I emailed it to you! :)
Me too, please?
toniroohr@gmail.com
Sent! Though it did say your email address was invalid. @@kenroohr
I loved this! We are brand new homeschoolers this year. We are doing cc without a community. Trying to find a routine has had me a little stressed. This helped me see that it’s doesn’t have to be so stressful! Would it be possible to get the file for the poster that you had on the wall? That is such an awesome idea!
I have friends that have been very successful doing CC at home! Leave me your email address and I'll be happy to send you the file :)
Home & Arrows eclecticmama08@gmail.com
Thank you so so much! Your family is such an inspiration!
Where did you get the board on your window?? I love that!
I had a fellow tutor send me the file and I had it printed and laminated! I'll be happy to send you the file if you send me your email address :)
@@ThisBlendedHouse yes please! I'll message you.
@@ThisBlendedHouse I'd love the file too! How can I send you my email address? Thank you SO SO much!
Can you send to me too please?
Did you make your cc poster wipe away?
We did! It's 2' x 3' and we had it printed and laminated at Office Max with our CC discount card! :)
great video new sub
I tried looking through all the comments for this answer but I didn't see it...
You're up at 0600 and Then work from 0700-0800
Chore time and then school work until noon - I know you said chore time is about 30mins, but what time do you start? What time does bible time start?
Thank you for your time, I'm prayerfully considering CC in September but I need help with the home routine!!
You made homeschooling look so easy!! Im so excited to watch more of your videos and learn more!!
The last few months things have looked very different! We have moved our chore time to after school (around 3) and Bible is the very first thing we still do around the table together, typically around 10.
Is there an image of your chore chart anywhere?
There sure isn't :( It's just something I personally came up with! Thanks so much for watching, Katheryn!
Dream kids right thare i cant get my kids to even make thare breakfast
Hi! can you tell me how you made your CC board. I saw it in the background in your kitchen.
Hi! I had it printed from a file a fellow CC friend passed on to me. I'm happy to send it to you if you send me your email address :)
@@ThisBlendedHouse That would we great! My email is ty.humphries@gmail.com Thank you and keep up the great work!
ty.humphries@gmail.com @@ThisBlendedHouse
Home & Arrows can I have a copy as well jasonandval2016@gmail.com
I still haven't gotten this in my email. I hope it didn't go to my spam. Can you send it again?
Excited that I found your channel. Can you please do a Mommy morning routine video? How do you rise early with 5 children? I'm striving to rise early especially for quiet time but I feel like it's impossible with my 4 littles under 5yrs old. Thanks for considering my video request. God's blessings continually over your family.
Oh sweet mama! 4 littles under 5 is TOTALLY different than having 5 aged 11-5. Give yourself lots of grace :) I'm sure you are up a lot at night making early mornings even more difficult! This may not be the season for early mornings! Evenings after bed time might work better for you to get some alone/quiet time in. I would be happy to make a mommy morning routine video soon! hugs! xo
Great video! r/ClassicalEducation sent me here
I want to homeschool my kids. I live in Kenya. I hope I am intending to do the right thing.
What version of the bible do you read aloud to your kiddos?
ESV...so easy for them all, even my youngest to understand :)
What are the ages of your children?? They look close in age. How did you make it thru the younger years?!? I have five also ages 6,4,3,2,1. And it's my first year homeschooling. I went to public school so its very new to me but I have my husband's family who are a great support and also homeschool. Any ways... I just wanna know how you managed those days? Love y'alls routine video!
They are currently 12, 11, 9, 8, 6. My babies and toddlers always napped or had quiet time from 1:30 - 3:30. That was when I would homeschool my older ones :) I'm pretty sure I'll need to make a video on it since I get asked that quite often. You can do it mama! Don't put too much pressure on yourself...my K and 1st graders did A LOT of playing! School only took us an hour and a 1/2 or 2 during those years! xo
What curriculum do you use?
Hi Tammy! We use a mixture of things! Horizons math for grades K-3, Teaching Textbooks grades 4 -6. We also use The Good & The Beautiful and we are a CC family so that covers a number of subjects like science, history, latin, English, math and geography. Thanks for watching!
Are you still in cc
If he is buzzing through math I heard Abeka is more rigorous so he might enjoy that.
Fellow CC mom here! Just found your channel and I love it! I too would love to know more about the CC memory board. (: Also would love a video or even suggestions on how to get a smooth homeschool routine going during the younger years!
Hey Cassandra! So fun meeting other CC moms :) Send me your email address and I'll be happy to send you the file we used to print our board! And those younger years...whew! It is tough to get in a routine then!! Thanks for the video idea :) Hugs!
Home & Arrows crroberts08@gmail.com
Thank you so much!!
I would love to know how you made the CC board as well!
@@KaylaMcCollom send me your email address and I'll be happy to email you the file we printed it from! :)
Hi! Me too! chrystal.eve2@gmail.com 😊
High five
I didn't understand any of the morning routine...I think your kids may be smarter than me. lol
We just read the bible too then a story from a voice of the martyrs book.
Very interesting. But why all kids are barefoot?
That is an interesting question! If the weather is warm, we are always barefoot or in socks in our home :)
Thanks for your answer. Can I speak with you? I’m immunologist. Sofia, 31.
@@soreldegerlund1625 We are very healthy, thank you! Probably because I let my kids walk around barefoot both outside and inside ;) You can email me at 5arrowsbrand@gmail.com if you need to talk.
Maybe Instagram?
