How long does it take to do daily?

Don't know if you'd like them, but you could checkout my books. Just look for author Stacy James Meadows to see my work. Hope you have a great week. 😅

This reminds me of the Wentworth Primary Arithmetic that we use (1890s math). It's public domain, includes slate work, very straight forward, written more for the teacher.

this was so helpful! Thank you! I've been looking for a CM math curriculum for a few weeks. I think I'm gonna buy this for my first grader!

Incredibly helpful! I think adding this with either build your library or torchlight for more literature/reading might work perfectly for us! It doesn’t seem to have much literature.

How old are your kids

I found you today because I am just starting AO Year 1 this year. so I have been watching your previous videos. So, when I saw this, I was like, "Oh man!" But your perspective is so wise and you've removed your ego for homeschooling-- which is not so easy in the homeschooling world! I'm excited to follow your SCM journey despite being on AO myself.

What did you use to make the pictures

How you evaluate?? Where get the assessment??

What you have to bring for homeschool evaluation of your kids?? Is it mandatory??

That’s a really cool idea but I feel like if the kids couldn’t get enough points they would feel upset and left out

So excited to see your SCM content... we will be using it for the first time for all subjects except Math for my 4th and 5th graders!

Woohoo! I’m so excited to see SCM content! I haven’t used AO but I’ve looked at it many times and feel the pressure to use it if you are going to be a CM homeschooler. I am going with SCM for the first time this fall for their history, geography, and Bible study. And I’m so excited!! I too want to do as much together family style as I can and I want us all in the same historical time period. I also have 4 kids, and I knew I would never be able to keep up with the AO schedule.

I loved your thoughts about focusing on academic success vs connecting with our kids and focusing on fun and who God wants them to be. This so resonated with me. Thank you for this.

This is a great idea but maybe I would use larger beads, it seems like it would take quite a while to fill.

Cool 😊

We will be using SCM , short lessons, biblical and family oriented. All the best in this homeschool year❤

Reminder and encouragement - because it's obvious how much you care :) “The question is not, -- how much does the youth know? when he has finished his education -- but how much does he care? and about how many orders of things does he care? In fact, how large is the room in which he finds his feet set? and, therefore, how full is the life he has before him?” Charlotte Mason -School Education

I’ve been a silent follower for some time and I have to say, I’m selfishly so excited that you’re using Simply Charlotte Mason! I will be using this next year as well! And I’ll be doing our enrichments with both AO and SCM. Anyways, I love your videos! I’m excited to hear more about this transition for you and your family!

I sent you a message on IG! ❤️

Yes! I’ve always looked at Ambleside longingly!!! I had baby number 4 when my oldest was 11 so I couldn’t imagine doing all the material. Also because we are Catholic I would have to add or change to add Catechism and the lives of the Saints. I have used Mater Amabilis which is Charlotte Mason with Catholic resources. When I had baby number 5 I had to switch to a Catholic Minimalist program and it was so life saving!!!!! You do what’s best for your family. Also I don’t subscribe to a. Specific program/curriculum. I just study several in the spring and take what I like and form my next school year. I am done with my upcoming year and it feels amazing!!!! I am sad to say I only have two schoolers and one of them is a kindergartener! I have 3 graduates! Keep on keeping on and enjoy your life with your family. You can’t get any time back. The other day my oldest ones asked me for an Art afternoon! So we watched Bob Ross and then spread out our paints, brushes etc etc. it was glorious! I had from the 22 down to the 5 year old around my kitchen table and it felt amazing! God bless you, your family and your new school year!

We are in a similar situation. I am a mom of 5. I adore AO, but it became too much, with so many children. I also felt, that elitist feel, and felt I pushed my children too much! It was hard to let go, but I felt a weight off my shoulders,once I did. You verbalized this so well.

I looked into Ambleside, but with 7 children I didn’t see how it would work for us. I completely understand where you are coming from.

Thanks for doing a flip-through! 1:06 - When Book 4 was published there was a supply chain shortage that made including the ribbons very expensive, so we opted to remove them rather than significantly increasing the price of the book. The cost has come back down since so that we could include the ribbons back for Book 5, and hopefully we'll be able to include them again with future print runs for Book 4! 🙂

Love your binders! Can you post a link to those D&D like cards, for the book charachters.

Thank you so much! This was exactly what I needed!

Thank you for this! By the way, you can melt or kind of singe the end of those bookmark ribbons by running the tip quickly over a lighter flame, then they won’t unravel.

Do you mind sharing the poetry book you did with your 4th grader? The Helen Hunt Jackson one. Thank you!

This was amazing! I don’t understand how you keep track of it all!! Would love To see how you organize it

Curious if you have your 5th grader do any other writing?

Love your videos!! I was wondering if there is a certain number of sentences you require for copy work? Is copywork each day?

This was so helpful! Thank you!

Loved this!

I've tried a certain of this before, but oh my goodness I love the color coding AND adjusting the size for length of time! Brilliant 🤓

Question do these books teach things like telling time, measuring cups, quarts, liters etc?

Thanks for sharing

Hi, what grammar do you add in for your children that are of age…any recommended resources?

Does the book show the problem worked out?

Great Job! 😀

You're so great! Such good information!

Great video! Super inspiring, We are a Christian family but have lacked the studies, seriously well done. Thank you!

I really appreciate this video! We've used Rightstart and dabbled with some other things as well; I like Righstart, but it's so complicated and has SO many manipulative. The space commitment is just a bit too much, as is setting up to get all the right cards out, playing the games (which are hard to understand), etc. I'm between this one and Truth and Goodness Math, which I really like from what I can tell; but I am drawn to having a book and not dealing with printing and organizing at home. I love finding Charlotte Mason curriculum reviewers; I will be checking out more of your videos!

Thank you for the review. Exactly what I have been looming for.

I have been wanting to see the inside of this one! Thank you so much!!! ❤❤

Could you please share the website you used to print off all the kings and queens from the UK? You mention it at around 10:40 in this video.

How old is this curriculum?

Wow, I hadn't heard of these until your channel. Thank you for the thorough review. Excellent resource!!! Looks very comprehensive.

❤ what a nice math book!! So easy to understand!! Glad you are on the other side of the crud!❤😊

Thanks for this review. I had been going back and forth looking for a math curriculum & settled on SCM Arithmetic. I haven’t even received the book yet but I am excited to get started using it.

Randomly stumbled across your channel. So thankful to find someone that’s beliefs and values are similar! 🖤 what a great mom and role model you are!
