How I started Homeschooling ll My Story
We love goodandbeautiful. Using it for 3 years and never gonna stop ❤ Level 3 and preschool ❤❤❤❤
Thank you for sharing!
You're so welcome! Thank you for watching! ☺️
If I have multiple kids do I need multiple of anything?
No you only need one parent guide and big book
So sorry I just saw this! Just like Nikki said, you only need one ☺️
I feel so glad to see people homeschooling. I'm also a homeschooling mama and its always learning watching people like you.
Awee thank you! I totally agree 🥰 Excited to connect more!
Just watched your same video from a year ago. Cool to see the update side by side and the space looks lovely. We are also a no homeschool room family and stay set up next to our kitchen/dining table. Appreciate seeing other spaces like mine!
Thanks! Love it and feeling encouraged!
Awee I'm so glad! Thank you so much for watching! ☺️
These is excellent advice for all areas in preparing for a new year. Thank you so much for sharing! 🙏☺️
Awee I'm so glad you found it helpful! Thank you so much for being here! 😊

Hey sweet mama. Just subscribed to your channel. Loved seeing how you teach your little ones without a designated school room. We too do homeschool at our dining table. Thank you for sharing! 🙏☺️
That's awesome! Thank you so much for being here!!! I look forward to connecting more! I'll head to your channel and sub 🥰
@@nicolemastin_ Thank you! So glad to have you there. 🙏☺️ Looking forward to more videos here on your channel. 💗💗 May you have a lovely, very blessed weekend.
Hi there! Could I get a link to the floating shelves in your kitchen your husband installed? 😊
Hey Kassidy! My husband actually built these and we purchased the brackets from Amazon! Believe it or not they were a lot cheaper building them then ordering because of the size we needed to fit this space! Let me know if you'd like the links for the materials we used like the brackets, stain choice, etc and I'll gather those for you!
@@nicolemastin_ how cool that he built them! I would love information on the stain you used!
New subscriber here! I also love tgtb and am using it for math and LA for my 1st and 3rd grader, the preschool course for my 4 year old, handwriting for all of them, as well as a couple science units 😊
Thank you so much for being here! Love that you love TGTB too 🥰 We will also be doing 3rd grade and some things for my 4 year old! Hope you guys have an amazing school year! I'll head to your channel and sub now! ❤️
We love the good and the beautiful! The open and go approach is such a game changer. I also love the muted tones and how “beautiful” the curriculum is!! ❤
So glad to hear you love them too! I totally agree! They do an amazing job with the design of everything!! 😍
Do you use the good and the beautiful curriculum for all subjects or just for math and science? I want to use the language arts curriculum from the good and the beautiful when my son is appropriate age to start using it right now he is only 2 years old. But I am going to start using the preschool from them when I think he is ready to start it he might be 3 or 4 years old when we start the preschool curriculum with him, we will just have to wait and see.
That's awesome! We use them for Math, Language Arts, Science, and Handwriting. For History we use The Playful Pioneers from The Peaceful Press😊
I’ve seen some not so great reviews about it. However, I’ve been using it and don’t see an issue with it. I’ve looked at at her things but always come back to The Good and the Beautiful. Waiting on levels 1 and 3 to arrive. I have 3 homeschooled kiddo’s and decided to stay with what we’re doing. 😊😊
Where have you used the sparks and stars audio narration? I don't see it where the fields and flowers or wind and waves audio narration is at. For example: Force and Motion
Once purchased you go to the homeschool app and it'll be under the Science for Little Hearts and Hands section with the others!
If it’s only 30 lessons what do you normally do for the rest of the year? Or do you spread it out to last the whole school year? I’m very new to this, so trying g to understand how to fit this into our school days. Is it once a week?
Thank you for being here, Sarah! So sorry for my late reply as I just recently had twins! To answer your question, we do one lesson per week over the course of 30 weeks! The nice thing about these science books is that you can do them however you'd prefer to fit your homeschool model! The Good and the Beautiful have this version along with two other versions so you could use more than one if you wanted to do more than a lesson per week! For us we do science on Fridays because that's our "fun" day of the week and it gives my kids something to look forward to each week with the experiments/activities! Hope that helps, and I'm here if you have anymore questions!
Hello, I am still new trying to figure this out. Our 1st year would be the school year coming up. My daughter is 5 going to kindergarten. I have a few questions. If I order the kindergarten packages is that enough for the whole year? How does it work and does it come with directions on what order we do the lessons. TIA
So sorry I am just seeing this Amber! I recently delivered twins and it's been a busy month ☺️🥰 As far as your question I would recommend taking the placement tests first before purchasing any packages! You can find this right on TGTB website.. We actually started our daughter with the Kindergarten prep course (where she tested on the placement test) and completed that and the Level Kindergarten in the same year! Typically we only do one level per school year though as there are 120 lessons, so plenty to cover in one school years time allowance. As far as how the lessons work, I love the way they are laid out. Each lesson is in order and it's open-n-go style! So no prep work and directions are super clear. I will be posting a video soon going over the Core curriculum books for Language Arts and Math! Hopefully that answers your question, and I am here if you have anymore questions!! ☺️
Hey, glad I found your channel. I have a child that is supposed to be going into third grade next year with an IEP and current reading level of about 1st grade. I also have a coming first grader and a kindergartner who is supposed to do kindergarten again next year with because he’s behind in math, but his reading is great. I purchased some workbooks and things to focus on the weaknesses this summer. Really thinking about homeschooling and trying to learn as much as I can. I’m really interested in The Good and The Beautiful. Thanks for being here.
Awee I am so glad you found my channel and appreciate you sharing your story! I think that is wonderful that you plan to work through some workbooks this summer! We do school year round so we can keep up those skills in the summer months, just tend to take it a bit lighter in the summer. I've seen a huge difference in my 8 year old since doing so... I'm here if you have any questions pertaining to homeschool and TGTB curriculum! Also if you are on Instagram I'd love to connect!!! 🥰
❤❤❤
😊
Thank you for being here! 🥰
We are loving the Good and the Beautiful!
Awee we are too 🥰 what grade are you guys doing?
@@nicolemastin_ level 3 language arts and we are almost done with level 2 math and starting level 3 math next month.
Loving The Good and The Beautiful level 5 for my 10 year old son!❤
Awee I love that you guys are loving it!! That's awesome! ❤️ How long have you been homeschooling?
@@nicolemastin_ We are finishing up year 2. Next year we will not be continuing either it, but my first year of homeschool we used level 7 of the Language Arts for my Daughter and she did well with it. It was challenging but not overwhelming. The Good and The Beautiful saved me while we have learned to transition from public school to homeschool. I am so thankful for it!💗🙏🏼
My oldest will be doing level 5 in Aug. He’s excited for the water coloring.
Thanks for this video. I order my box weeks ago before the sale came out. well I am still happy I got my box.
Not a problem!!! I'm glad you were able to get your box! Thank you for watching!
Thank you for the video! I bought the sparks and stars curriculum too! I decided to start with the wind and waves curriculum for kindergarten, but I can't wait to do all of them!
Awee you are so welcome!!! How exciting! 😍 I hope you have the best school year, we love the wind and waves too!!
Thank you! I’ll have a 3 rd grader and kindergartner next year and wondered if this would still be good for my older child. Looking forward to trying it. Congratulations to you on your upcoming double bundle of love!🎉
Awee that's so exciting!! You are so welcome! I hope you guys enjoy it!! Thank you so much for your kind words!
What stain did you use
It was Varathane "Jacobean" Poly Stain from Lowe's! Satin finish
Blessed me. Thank you for sharing.
Glad you enjoyed it! ❤️

Before we got our space, i had one tool box. Best freaking i ever did! I was able to lock my things (with littles) and keep them organized. It worked with bright colors for our future space!
That's such a great idea!!! I love it!
Thank you for this video
Awee you are so welcome! Thank you for watching! 🥰
Thank you for sharing!! How often would you say religious references are included and what do they look like? We lean more secular but I think this would be fun & easy for my kids in their little years but just not sure what to anticipate!
Hey Hannah! Thank you so much for watching! I snagged this answer from the FAQs on their website regarding special doctrine. “the goal of our curriculum is not to teach doctrines specific to any particular Christian denomination but to teach general principles, such as honesty, hard work, and kindness.” I hope this answers your question. There is also a specific Facebook group for teaching Secular style for TGTB. Let me know if you have anymore questions!! Have a great day! 😊
@@nicolemastin_ thank you! I know it gets murky with science & it can be hit or miss with whether something works for a family! Thanks again for the overview it was so thorough!
@@hannahhensley8497 For sure!!! I hope it was helpful! Thank you again for watching!
@@hannahhensley8497😊
Amazing. I have great respect for you both. It's great that you both understand and appreciate each other.
Awee thank you!! Appreciate your kind words! 😊
We homeschool at our table as well, I have a small counter/cabinet area that I have all of our stuff at however I am planning on tearing it all out and redoing it so it functions for us. I can't wait to get that started!
That is so awesome! I would love to see how you organize it when you are done! Subscribing to your channel now! :-)
Thanks! Yes I can’t wait to start! I’m hoping to tear things down in a month or so!!
We done it on my bed when I was sick
