My "Blue son!" Yes, we all color code our kiddos!

I would definitely like for you to make a video about good books for boys. I have a 10 year old. I just found your channel and really like this video.

My oldest is entering 7th grade. I've been having a hard time trying to find things for him to do outside of our core curriculum. I'm so excited about the woodwork and architecture. Thanks so much for sharing! It's greatly appreciated! I'll definitely be checking out your other videos😊

I agree that you did an awesome job with this DITL especially with not having your kids in the video. I’m sure that was a little challenging, but it was great. I loved the little flip through of the Generations book and your voice over was also great to make the video flow nicely. And…your cat 🤦🏼‍♀️😂 How funny!

How did you determine how many lessons each subject would have?

You did a great job with your first DITL. Thanks for sharing.

We always start school off the Monday after the 4th of July. I love how you layout all the curriculum on the first day, as my kiddos are getting older I think they would appreciate that. Thanks for sharing.

We start school tomorrow and I felt so unprepared. But your video has helped me so much!! Thank you for sharing.

I love the laying out of their curriculum so they can see everything and you talking about it all. What a great idea. Also, your sticker reward basket. Such great ideas. Thank you!

Really good ideas! Thanks for sharing! 😊

Love these ideas, very inspiring!

I too am a puzzle lover. A game I enjoy playing with my kiddos is Labrynth. Its a great strategy game in which the board actually changes every turn, kinda like a puzzle (LOL). The object of the game is to reach the items on the board that you have cards for and return to your home spot. First one back home wins the game.

I love having my mom binder

Well, to be honest, when the boys have been scored above their grade, I have bragged about them to my friends…so a few more people are made aware of their scores! 😅

I have 2 boys ages 12 and almost 10, I wanted to share a few book recommendations - Geronimo Stilton, Bailey School Kids (older series, would have to find used), Wishbone Mysteries (from the 90s), National Park Mystery series, Nancy Drew, The World According to Humphrey series, and Explorer Academy series.

ah ok. We call all of them books

I’m in the UK. What is a chapter book? Is it just want you call children’s books?

I love this guide. This would work so as a read aloud, with my kids completing the activity pages, I love that it appears minimal writing,

Thanks! I bought the elective trackers. They're going to help all of us here at home.

I love your planning ideas! So helpful. I’m also loving your wood shop grading and assignment papers! Will they be available to buy on your Etsy account?

Thanks so much for sharing and explaining your schedule. I can understand how peaceful and expected it is, so no kick back. X

Thanks so much for sharing. I am so intrigued by a 50 week school year. We do 36 weeks, 6 weeks on, 1 off. Can I ask more about your school year and breaks? X

Amazing preparation! You’ve obviously committed to a lot of prep and work. The boys are fortunate to have you!

Love your woodshop resources!

I am so glad to find this flip through! I have been eyeing this Bible curriculum for a long time! I was especially happy to hear that you do not use the teacher guides. They are so expensive and bulky-looking, that I have been looking for reviews, hoping to find someone who says that the teacher guide is not necessary, but haven't had any luck until now. The curriculum description itself makes it sound like it's required, but based on the samples I've seen, I figured maybe I could make do without it. Definitely going to give it a try this next year now!

Hi! We had a similar pencil situation for a hot minute, too. I had the kids go through all the pencils and pick one they really liked. My oldest choose a mechanical pencil for a few years, this least year he liked this short green pencil, then this year he had a red one but with 3-4 different Eraser heads. My 2nd oldest now has about 3 she switches around but, she knows that's all she is getting. If she looses those then she gets one of my choosing and she is not fond of that idea because she likes her colorful ones and she wants to put on her pencil box (not in my teacher book). I gave them pencil cases (this year my oldest built himself a pencil/pen/marker holder) and when we finished school I reminded them to make sure they put there pencils back in their boxes because it's the only one they have and they need to put it back. And the times when they can't find their pencil for lessions ( the next time ) I would tell them "well you need to find it because you need to do lessions" and usually after lessions they do something they want to do, eat a fun treat or we go do something if all is finished. So if they don't get done, they do not get to go do the other fun thing. I know every family is different but, I thought maybe sharing might help in some way❤ I've heard a lot of teachers struggle with the missing pencils too! Hope your methods work this year!!

Loved seeing everything you got!

Love that pencil dispenser!

I agree with adding the erasers. Not sure why but they go down really fast on those pencils. I love the tabs! I never seen those notebooks. Definitely buying them. Thank you for sharing!

The pencil dispenser is such a fun idea!!!

Hi! Would you be so kind to do a video showing step by step how to do a middle school transcript? Thank you

We use Hoffman academy and are so happy with it!😊

Send all the books by post so I don't have to by them

You’re amazing!

HSLDA is amazing! I’m loving your wood shop elective and architecture elective. I’m sure I told you this already on your 6th grade picks video 😂 Question: would you be willing to share on your Etsy account the worksheets/lesson plan you’re making up for the architecture class? I want to steal your idea for that elective and that’ll be an amazing tool to have. I’m also loving the log sheets you created! My son is also doing typing this year. Thank you!

We did the human body last year but spread that section over the entire year and really enjoyed it! If you want videos to go along with it, we watched a RUclips channel called LearnBright and found videos at least half or more of the lessons. Used this with my 10 and 13 year old. We also love Notgrass and have used them the last two years!❤

Well-read, dog-eared books make my heart happy! ❤

Are the teacher's guide needed for this curriculum or can you get away with just the workbooks?

Where did you get map of us sticker picture

So helpful! Thanks. I'm going to look into that for my boys soon.

Thank you for sharing. Those architecture and woodworking electives sound fun. I’m planning to get The Hiding Place graphic novel as well. We read the Wild Robot and my son loved it, we are currently reading the second book in the series now.

Stubby was a real dog during the war so I’m thinking the Dog Diaries is a non-fiction series about real dogs. There is also a movie about Stubby that might might be fun to watch after you read the book.😊

Thanks for the great ideas.

Dear Mam, Your video content is really good. But unfortunately your video is not properly SEO. That's why your video views and subscribers are not increasing. If you do video SEO then definitely rank your video. As a result, subscribers and views will increase. If you want I can help you grow your RUclips Channel.

Love these ideas! My oldest, 11, is not into reading. I'm making it a priority to try and grow his love for reading! And all my other kiddos as well. 😊

Question about the Positive Action Bible Studies...Do you need to buy the teacher guide or just the student manual enough? I am looking for a Bible study that my child can do on his own. Thanks.

Great ideas!

We love Masterbooks science. We are using God’s Design: Life and have 3 weeks left in plants (we also school year round). We are going to take a month or two off of science this summer and resume with human body in the fall.

I am so excited to have found your channel! We have a similar teaching style and thoughts on 6th grade and are using a lot of the same resources. Looking forward to hearing more from you :)

Thank you for sharing! We will have a 1st and 5th grader and appreciate hearing about the things you are considering regarding trasncripts and electives.
