- Hey guys! Welcome back to my channel! This video will give you a peek into how we make homeschooling work with me working full-time outside the home!
New here? Introduce yourself in the comments!
I’ll go first:
I’m Christina, a first-year homeschooling mom of 5 kids (ages 1, 2, 5, 9, & 13). I am also a full-time teacher, and just went back to teaching in person after about a year of teaching virtually. I’ll continue to share our homeschooling journey, and I’m excited to connect with you! I hope you feel encouraged here 🤍

✨Hey Mamas! How do you make it all work? Let’s start a stream of advice for all of us mamas trying to juggle all of the things! Specific questions? Ask away! ✨
STRUCTURE, STRUCTURE, STRUCTURE! I am a single mommy, whose working, home schooling, and a college student. It’s not easy, but after a few months you will find your rhythm and teaching style. It was extremely hard at first and overwhelming. I keep pushing and now, it’s getting better. I keep it interesting and switch things up to keep them motivated. I do a mixture of hands on and visual learning, to keep them engaged. My son just got his test results back after this year of being homeschooled and the school district compared it to public school results, and his results came back today and he scored REALLY WELL! The results were better than what he did in public school. I’m super proud!! I wanted to cry. I love the concept of homeschool, bc you can teach them things that aren’t taught in public school. My 10 year old is learning anatomy, computer coding, and starting algebra, to name a few. He loves it and tells me he can focus on his studies, it was actually his idea to be homeschooled 😅. Any parents considering it, I encourage it. It helps you learn about your child too at the same time. I learned a lot about their interests. I actually enjoy teaching now, never in a million years would I think I’ll be a homeschool teacher 😅💛
Love this!
Girl... do you have a UA-cam channel? Because I need to follow you! I am a single, homeschooling, working, studying mom, too! Except, I', just figuring out how to start 😅
How do you do this? I seem to fight with my 13 yr old son because he refuses to do anything. I work over 40 hours plus homeschool. I have tried the structure thing but to no avail...yet. Where do you do the testing? Help?
I would love to connect! I am also a single mom who is going into homeschooling…. And i am scared lol
How do you socialize your child?
I work full time outside the home far. I love learning how other moms do it all. I wish I could do all those morning baskets and sit with my kids all day. For now I am trying to learn how to make it all get done
Still figuring it out! Yes! No matter your season or walk of life! 🙋♀️
Thanks Jamie! It’s definitely encouraging to hear that from someone who has been homeschooling as long as you have! ❤️
Thank you so much for sharing how you make it work, as a full-time HomeSchool Mom and a full-time Teacher. The content you share on your channel is invaluable! Seriously. Juggling it all can be super challenging. However, this video has helped me realize that I need a plan but it's okay to take it week to week and see what works for us. Thanks again!
You are so welcome, I am so glad it is helpful!
I really admire your tenacity: it indicates how dedicated you are to homeschool your kids. But I can also see how most people would not be able or willing to do similar- no wonder so many are curious to see how you manage both! Because it seems intense 😅. You really are very dedicated
Who is with the kids at home? I work full time and my husband stays home with our daughter. He isn’t on board with homeschooling but I want to give it a go! Just trying to see how other working moms do this!
Hey mama! My husband was home with them during the hours I was working, but I’ve since come home full time. It can definitely be done, but he was able to get a job that allowed me to stop working so we went for it!
You are so awesome mama! I am praying about what to do... regarding going back to work. You are super organized... love it ❤
Thank you so much Gina! I’m always here if you need to rake things through! ❤️
You're doing a great job, mama!
Thank you sweet friend❤️🤗
This video was invaluable! Thank you for going into so much detail, you have given me so many ideas and confidence!
Love seeing how you make this all work
Thank you so much-it’s definitely a work in progress!!
I am so amazed! I’d love to keep hearing more about how you homeschool and teach full time! I have so many questions! ☺️☺️☺️
Thank you so much! My most recent video is a Day in the Life that shows what a typical day looks like around here now! And definitely shoot any questions my way 😊
Also! I currently have an ask me anything box in my stories over on Instagram-so ask away!!
I found you through Simplyliving. Hi I’m Katie. I’m new to homeschooling and love to watch your videos! Thanks so much! I love the activities you have for the littles especially. I have a busy 4, almost 5 year old I am working with to get to some goals, but you make some great, fun and learning activities for that age that I have loved to incorporate. Thanks again
Hi Katie! I’m so happy you’re here!!
Looks like you have an excellent system! Figuring things out and adjusting is a constant for us but keeping a flexible mindset helps when it's time to switch things up!!
Thank you so much! It definitely helps to know that we are all constantly adjusting/learning/growing!
It is working for the kids. Also I believe it helps them to become independent following instructions
This is refreshing, really enjoyed your video. Thank you so much for sharing.
You’re so welcome! Thanks for watching!!
We love our homeschool cart
Yes! I don’t know what we’d do without ours!!
Very impressive!! Our schedule has been an ever-changing the last several years, especially as I desire to help our business grow more!
I’ve been realizing this lately-that it will always need to flex-with jobs, ages, etc!
@@RootedHomeLife It's good to be open to flexibility too and anticipate the need for it so you're not stuck doing something that isn't working anymore!
You are such a rock star, Christina! Great work!
Aww thank you so much Kaela, I appreciate that ❤️
You're doing such a great job. I'm really amazed. Thanks for sharing.
Aww thank you so much! ❤️
Thanks so much for sharing! I found this helpful
I’m so glad!!
Love this! You are amazing doing it all! ❤
Thank you so much-still figuring it out, but doing my best! ❤️
My kids are responsible for there own books. I text them wat they need to do. My daughter does more tho. She knos that she needs to do well at school but I don’t require her to do too much in a day tho but we do science more often than I’m hearing most homeschool families do knowing that my daughter will need it and idk wat the rest of my kids are going to do in the future so it’s not hurting them to learn more. We don’t do language Arts wen we do gather round. Where we live most ppl don’t know another language so I want my kids to learn another language but it’s up to them wat they choose. I love that we can be flexible. As my daughter wants to do the course I’m doing and it’s an awesome Option for her future I kno that she can take longer if needed or start at the end of high school if she’s ready so we can still be flexible even tho shes gonna be a surgeon. My kids are older and we use their iPads for them to see there work off a pdf and if they want it printed they can.
I loved your video and how well organized you have everything, it will help me a lot, I started homescooling my boy last year and this year my daughter will be doing high school in homeschool. Sorry if my written Englis is not so excelent, I am mexican. I just wonder, how come you being a teacher, decidedto do homeschool with your kids? :) God bless you!
Who is watching your kids while they are working? Do they go to day care or?
My husband 😊
I’d love to know where I can get that daily printable. It’s so cute!!
Email me and I’ll send it to you!!
Id like it to! 🩷
Wow!!! I am seriously so impressed!! Do the kids do all the work independently until you get home, or is there someone there spurring them along?
Thank you! My husband is there during the day, but their work is pretty independent unless they need help ❤️ I probably should’ve explained that part🤣. Thank you for asking😊
I figured that there was someone around!! Way to make it.work for your family!
Who watches them during the day? Are they all independent learners? Even the littles?
Hi! could you share what planner you use...and also the daily list you put on the clipboard for them? Thanks!
I actually found my planner at Aldi for $7.99! I’m hoping to find the same one again for next year!! And if you want to shoot me an email (or just share a good email here), I can send you the PDF file of my clipboard list!
@@RootedHomeLife wow! No way! I will keep an eye out at aldi! Can’t beat 7.99 either! Email is hsm2@yahoo.com. Thanks!
@@rolandabradley6193 such a great deal! Just sent the planner PDF!
Do you have a link for your daily clipboard paper?
Sorry I’m just seeing this! If you email me at rootedhoneschoollife@gmail.com I will send you the PDF
How do y’all tackle the read alouds? I have a little with moderate dyslexia and we are struggling to keep up with the lesson plans laid out by our program.
I actually find that they do best when they can do something with their hands while they listen!
Hello how do you arrange childcare for your kids while you are in work?
My husband and I worked opposite schedules!
Yes! Working homeschool mom DITL please
Hey! I actually did this one! Here’s the link 😊 ua-cam.com/video/opFjmo6P8_c/v-deo.html
