I love seeing the other years of biblioplan and how everyone uses it. It's such an amazing curriculum!! I wish every subject had a Family guide built like biblioplan. So many good resources and material suggestions!
I’m looking at this and story of the world. I know you’ve used both.. I would love a comparison video or a video explaining why you like biblioplan over story of the world!! ❤
Story of the world can actually be used along with it, however, the difference is this; Story of the world is literally history in story form with an activity guide with a few ideas for hands on activities, suggested read alouds, and review questions. Biblioplan goes into greater depth but provides engaging text can be used with every age level. They offer many different optional add-ons to make the course what you want as well read alouds for every age level, etc. so the difference is the depth, additional resources, and the vast age range.
We are using this curriculum this year based on your flip through last year. We have loved and enjoyed it so much! Thank you for sharing it with us all!
Good timing because I have to select what we will use next and i really like literature-based history, but my kids are old enough now they can do more hands-on activities and search the internet links too, so I want something that pulls in a bit more hands-on that I don't have to search for! I would definitely add the activity guides!
I’ve almost bought this a few times…I usually get overwhelmed at all of the book choices to purchase to go along with the set for varying ages…😅 Thank you for sharing!
I would love a video on the difference between biblio plan and mfw … You got me head spinning and thinking today 😂 we have used ECC this year with my 2nd, 4th & 6th grader and we used notgrass 50 states the year before and tgtb history the 2 years before So I have been on such a hunt deciding if we want to do creation to the Greeks next year and follow that cycle … we haven’t loved the science with mfw but we do love the read alouds and how simple it is to follow and pick and choose I’d love to hear why you like this more But now I’m really thinking we are going to do biblio plan … I had never heard of it before today … and add in story of the world Always love what you share & have to say!
Watching this video again. Thanks for sharing. And I finally subscribed. This was so helpful. How long would you say it takes y’all to get through history? How do y’all think y’all will get high school credits for US history, geography, and government, and such? Would that also come from biblioplan? Thank you! We also have a channel and have tons of homeschool content. It would be fun to be friends! Love your content!
Thanks so much for this! I was hooked when I saw your video on this last year, so it was nice to see it "in action" 😂 My kiddos are still pretty little, but my plan (for now, haha) is to switch to Biblioplan after my littles are school aged. We shall see 😁 I just love that family guide! My question is, how do you decide which stuff to do/read? I feel like I would want to do every single thing 😂 Again, thanks so much for doing this!
I am considering this History curriculum for my 3rd, 4th and 7th graders. Do you have to do 3 days a week? I was wanting to do history once maybe twice a week. & How long does it take you to do History as a family each day? Thanks!!
Megan, in the past you have used MFW. What do you see as the biggest differences between these two? What is something that you have appreciated more in Biblioplan?
Biblioplan has the text component and My Father’s World doesn’t. The family guide is easier to follow and you can choose the pieces you want to use in order to tailor it for your family and your needs. It’s also k-12 and My Father’s World isn’t.
You may have already answered this but at what age/level do you start history? I am new to homeschool this is our first year my son is in kindergarten next year will be 1st and wondering should I start history or hold off another year

Literature suggestions! 😍 Online resources and movies!! What?! So cool! I normally do all that research on my own.
BP was a game changer for us and we LOVE it too! 😍
It’s exactly what I’ve always been looking for!
Thanks for sharing this! History is absolutely my favourite thing to teach in our homeschool!
Really interesting to see this curriculum! Glad you all are enjoying it so much!

@@PenniesAndSaltthank you for this explanation! These are two I'm torn between for my 5 kids.
We are using this curriculum this year based on your flip through last year. We have loved and enjoyed it so much! Thank you for sharing it with us all!
Oh, I love hearing that! Which one are you using?
@@PenniesAndSalt We are doing Year 2 Medieval Days. I'm looking into Year 3 Early Modern for next year. :)

I’m binging your Biblioplan videos today!
Oh you make me want to use this, Megan! You've talked so good about it over the last couple years. I am definitely considering this for next year.
It’s really great! Maybe try out the free download!
I love when there are coloring sheets included
Same!
I’ve almost bought this a few times…I usually get overwhelmed at all of the book choices to purchase to go along with the set for varying ages…😅 Thank you for sharing!
You can truly make it what you want. 😉
This makes me so excited for next year

So I have been on such a hunt deciding if we want to do creation to the Greeks next year and follow that cycle … we haven’t loved the science with mfw but we do love the read alouds and how simple it is to follow and pick and choose
I’d love to hear why you like this more
But now I’m really thinking we are going to do biblio plan … I had never heard of it before today … and add in story of the world
Always love what you share & have to say!
I am so excited to use this curriculum because of you ❤
Great video! This looks like it would be a lot of fun for my kiddos!

I go with the mindset that the next time we cycle through we can do other components or go further.

Cool History for Middles.... do you use that as independent work for the older kids or as a group review at the end of lessons?
I have my older kiddos track along and fill in the answers as we read and then we go over it to review after as a family.
Would you recommend this for a family with 4th, 3rd with special needs, 2nd, and K? I have SOTW, but I'm overwhelmed trying to plan it all...
I think we are going to use this next year and start with ancients! Thank you!! How many days a week do you do history?
2-3 😉 we alternate it with science
2-3 😉 we alternate it with science
Has this replaced story of the world for you ? It looks very interesting!
Yes, we only use it here and there as a read aloud or to cover something for my younger kiddos based on content depth.

Thank you!
My kids like to trace them too
Have you seen the highschool resources?
For a new 8yr old and a 5yr old, is this is a little much? I LOVE BP but I worry I'm starting too soon with history
How would you say this curriculum compares with Story of the World? I’d like to find something that goes more in-depth for next year.
It goes into much greater depth for sure!
How long roughly does a biblioplan lesson take?
You may have already answered this but at what age/level do you start history? I am new to homeschool this is our first year my son is in kindergarten next year will be 1st and wondering should I start history or hold off another year
She said she starts this at about 2nd grade. I would probably focus on a light geography curriculum for Pre-K through 1st.
So, I'm considering this for next year. Do you read from any spine, or just the RTD?
Sometimes we use SOTW and Trial and Triumph
How many days a week do you do History?
2-3 days a week 😊
