I think consistency is the biggest help to catching up!

[@TheParentTeacherBridge]

True

[@SusanEvans]

When I was a public school teacher, I saw so many students who were behind in basic skills.

[@TheParentTeacherBridge]

Yes! It can be frustrating and sad.

[@ItsAWanderfulLife]

I have seen so many moms say they were shocked with their children being behind coming from public school to homeschool! Great advice .

[@TheParentTeacherBridge]

Yes. It has been eye-opening for them.

[@leilani9130]

Some great tips. We are about to trash some curriculum now. Not just shelve but full blown dumpster and burn. It is causing to much stress and anxiety so it is gone. Totally okay to do!😆

[@TheParentTeacherBridge]

I'm all about selling it if I can. Every little bit helps, but I understand!

[@EverydayBlessings]

I love that you addressed the state standards and comparing that to what you need to function as an adult.

[@TheParentTeacherBridge]

Thanks. Parents are getting hung up on those.

[@ourthriftyhomeschool]

That is such a great point to just scale back a level rather than throwing out the whole curriculum!

[@TheParentTeacherBridge]

We keep extra supplies like that in the shed for me to revisit later.

[@AdventureAllTheWay]

So helpful for new home schoolers who are freaking out!

[@TheParentTeacherBridge]

I hope so!

[@YouSchoolExplorers]

I had to scale back with my daughter and just go at her own pace...very good tips!

[@TheParentTeacherBridge]

Thank you

[@musicallylecletic]

Thanks for posting. I will share with my friend.

[@TheParentTeacherBridge]

I appreciate it.

[@TheHomeschoolHelpmate]

Gear tips for families. Don’t be afraid to go to a Lowe level and just focus on basics.

[@TheParentTeacherBridge]

Thanks. That's true!

[@LifeintheMundane]

I have had to do all three of things before with my struggling kiddos. Great tips

[@TheParentTeacherBridge]

You're definitely experienced!

[@RussellsLovingLife]

Great tips for beginner homeschooling families!

[@TheParentTeacherBridge]

Thanks.

[@HomeSweetHomeschoolLife]

This is such good advice.

[@TheParentTeacherBridge]

Thanks.

[@TheseDays]

Your videos are always so encouraging and relevant! Thank you!

[@TheParentTeacherBridge]

Thanks, Jacki

[@SevenInAll]

This is some really practical advice! We have definitely had times when we've had to shelve the planned curriculum for a few months and get back to working on foundational skills, really targeting problem areas.

[@TheParentTeacherBridge]

Thank you.

What happens when they are evaluated by the State or Distric and they are not at a grade level does the parent gets in trouble?

[@TheParentTeacherBridge]

I cannot speak for all states. Each state has their own homeschooling laws. I recommend reading up on HSLDA website, which will link you to all of those. For my state, our children are not evaluated by the state if we choose an umbrella school option. Not only that, there are thousands of children across the US who are performing very low in public school. Their parents do not "get in trouble." Also, what is "grade level?" That would be answered by the curriculum standards voted on in each state. Therefore it changes state to state.
