Our parenting or teaching style and our sons are so alike. So good to see! Would love to see an experiment day too! I’m really wanting to add in SL science for my son.
We are filming a full week of lessons soon! So keep an eye out for that ❤️ My son would be insanely happy if we only did science and maybe math lol.
Genuine Question! I see that he is holding his pencil in a different way. Will you eventually correct it or as long as he can write the numbers/letters, you don't mind it?
He goes through phases of holding it correctly and not throughout the lessons so I’m not super worried about it at this age. He is still building muscles with using things like play dough and other manipulatives
“Alright Mila, Nico’s coming to play.” 🤣🤣🤣
Always top of his mind, when can he play next 🤣
How relatable this is - teaching my own young boy 😂 The reluctance and then the excitement once they actually get started. The guessing, looking everywhere but at the paper etc. thank you for sharing!
lol I knew I wasn’t the only one. Boys are a totally different ball game when it comes to homeschooling
Thank you for this! First year teaching my twin boys kindergarten and this helped remind me my that us moms are all in the same boat with the joys and attitudes and just the everyday with our kiddos!
Yes! I came here to say the same thing. This is such a breath of crazy fresh air because this looks EXACTLY like my morning with my 5 and 6 year old boys! It's nice to know it's not just mine who dont have the "YAY SCHOOL!" feelings right away
Hearing from other working homeschool moms is so refreshing! I'm trying to leave a not-so-great job but we need to income. I've been struggling to find the balance and this helps me realize that it can totally be done differently than I am doing now!
Glad this helped! Wishing you the best ❤️
Hi!! For your 6th grader.. thanks for the overview! Are you still using IEW structure and style along with Moving Beyond?? Would you use both together??
We are not using IEW this year. Every Language Arts unit from Moving Beyond the Page has a writing element so I feel like that is enough.
Hello I am homeschooling my kids for the first time in a new state and the requirements are way different than I’m usto one of them is they need to do a standardized yearly test now my question/concern is my son is going to 5th however he has autism and his learning level is more like kindergarten. How will I be able to have him do the standardized test (at home) if they don’t offer kindergarten for example I would like to do CAT it’s more convenient (at home and untimed) which I will be doing for my daughter but the lowest grade they have is 2nd.. any help??? Thank you.
I would look into the MAP test or contact your local school for public testing, most public schools will allow students to test if it’s required by the state.
Wish this was available in Canada
Where did you get the homeschool plane it paper? Some of the information is hard to see or understand because you move so quickly.... Thank you for your help though, I have gathered some.
The schedule I printed is from the website Homeschool Planet which is an online planner. Sorry if this video didn't help you understand, I am sure there other videos on RUclips that explain this curriculum
Same thing here. Working from home full time, have a 3yo and a 6mo and starting homeschool a few weeks ago. Trying my best to do it all because they are all so important to me. Thanks for the helpful info.
So I ordered the bundle but how do I access the free PDF and videos. Only the two books were in the box. I’m a bit confused
If you ordered it from Tuttle twins they normally email you that stuff, just reach out to their customer service
@@gatheredandgroundedhomeschool thank you so much. I’ll look into that.
This video spurred me on a 2 day journey of sitting at my computer researching different curriculums and placing orders. We’re done too. It was the simplicity of tgab that helped me be not be intimidated and learn to be consistent day to day. But there have been a lot of indicators that this curriculum isn’t the best one for us. Thank you sharing your thoughts. It has helped me so much! And thanks to all of the commenters, too! The suggestions have pointed me in the right direction!
I just stumbled across your channel and as full-time working homeschool mom myself that has a regular corporate job, I identified with your video so much. It was spot on! Thank you for sharing this realisitic video. There are so few examples of how us moms who work full time and homeschool manage it. I get why, since time is such a premium for us. The time you are taking to share your experience is appreciated and so valuable to this niche subset of homeschoolers.
Thank you! ❤️
Can this be used for a 7th Grader?
Yes!
I appreciate you sharing your experience as a working homeschool mom. ❤️ We are about to begin our homeschooling journey next week with our first grader. I’ll be honest, as a full time working mom myself I am nervous and excited at the same time 😅 My husband and I plan on sharing the homeschooling duties and then he will attend a coop once a week. Thank you for sharing your experience!
Ok this question has nothing to do with dance. But I am just curious did you ever figure out what curriculum you are going to do for your son for learning to read? I was given something free try recently and I am not happy with it so I am looking for something different. I am very discouraged and frustrated about what to do. My older kids have special needs and I didn’t fully teach them how to read as they were in public school for many years before we started homeschooling. So this is technically my first full time teaching a child to read and I am so overwhelmed by it and what to do. I am about to have baby #6 via C-section soon and need something very simple but effective for a six year old to learn to read. Love to hear any thoughts you have!!!
I have been using so many things…We use bob books readers, just started adding in sight words… also had him start using hooked on phonics on the iPad. I also really love the leap frog letter factory series - I had to buy used DVDs. I’m not using a specific reading curriculum we are just naturally progressing him through both phonics (sounding out words) and a combination of sight words. He will start using the Moving The Page 5-7 program in January which has a full blown reading curriculum included. If you are really wanting a full blown structured curriculum I’ve heard great things about all about reading level 1 and good and beautiful language arts. Those both are pretty open and go and walk you through everything ❤️
@@gatheredandgroundedhomeschoolI looked into All About Reading but with soon six kids it looked too much prep work and too teacher intensive. More than I can take on right now. Don’t know much about The Good and The Beautiful but seen so many mixed reviews about it, it makes me not sure…🤔 But it does look simple for the teacher. Just know I am about to have a C-section and that’s a long rough road to recovery so need something simple and effective!
Do you still use this curriculum? Do you know if they will expand to Pre-Algebra and above?
No I do not, least I hear they were going up to 6th grade.
This was so, so good and needed. There’s so few of us who work full time and homeschool. ❤ I love your tips.
I’m so excited to check this out for my daughter. 😊
Husband (from home in IT) and I (half from home and half on the road) both work full time & Homeschool our 7 year old!!! Its definetly a challange but totally worth it
I am not a homeschool mom, but I love this concept! I am going to give it a try. I have a child that loves to dance but hates to perform! And I still have to pay all the recital fees even if she doesn’t attend. Thank you for the recommendation
Oh this is a wonderful option ❤️
This looks interesting. Thanks for sharing!
I was just reminding my daughter of this yesterday lol! We did it a couple years ago and she had fun with it. We were thinking of revisiting. Well-timed! 🤗
I’m always amazed by how you juggle it all!!
Thank you for sharing!!!! We def didnt know. ❤❤❤
Hi, i have a soon to be 5, 3, and 1 year old and my husband wants me to homeschool. I am a stay at home mom but I'm overwhelmed by this. Thank you for the advice and are there any certain homeschool criculam you would suggest that covers everything they'll need to know and not fall behind if we do have them in public school some day?
There are so many good curriculums out there. If your state doesn’t have any requirements you can pick whatever you choose, most curriculums follow national state standards. You have very little ones so just have fun! Gentle + Classical has good stuff for that age.
Awesome! This is exactly the information that I am looking for...thanks.
Awesome video! So true; that every situation is different.
I am in awe of all that you do.
Thank you ❤️
Love this video! I am a full time working mom as a nurse in the ICU and have chosen to homeschool my three kids. So many people are mind blown when I say we homeschool but we make it work!
I own 3 businesses and work remotely while homeschooling an only child. It has its own challenges, just like anyone has challenges, but you make it work because it’s worth it!
I am similar work FT from home 4/5 days a week. One day in office. I’m looking at starting my day early like you do. My question is what time do you go to bed what time do you wake up and what’s the evening routine so you can get to bed at a decent time?
I go up to bed at 9, do all the goodnight stuff with the kids and im probably in bed asleep by 10. wake up right around 5am. I am normally done eating dinner and kitchen cleaned up by 5ish 5-7 I just do whatever I need to, shower….read….clean something….do nothing I have no phone after 7ish, so no social media scrolling. Hubby and I are normally catching up from the day, watching shows so it’s definitely a wind down time til bed.
I will be hopefully working remotely while homeschooling three from 12-16. I had to switch to an online program because my hours are 9am to 5:30 pm. I am off Fridays and Saturdays so at least I will have Fridays to go over the weeks lessons. It is difficult to juggle. I had tried to work the overnight at the hospital for 2 years and that was far more challenging and will never do it again. The job I may be offered will not be flexible when I work, no breaks except for lunch. In these times, you have to do what you have to do. Moms usually (especially homeschool moms) have it the hardest because you work full time, and then have to focus on the home, the homeschool lessons etc.
I am a single mum own my business have two kindergarten/1st garde homeschool morning work in the afternoon, kids play in sport teams(they go there with friends) I pick them up and we have a nice walk home and stop for dinner on the way Saturday we lunch prep and clean Sunday we just play boardgames in PJ's or go for a trip
I do the same with chores with kids. That weekend point is so true. Everything we do takes time from something else. It’s just choices.
I love that your tips and tricks are that you work your butt off and teach your kids responsibility. People are always making excuses of why they can’t do things, but it really just comes down to the fact that they don’t want to put in the work or make the sacrifices that are necessary. Thanks for sharing this realistic video, it’s much appreciated!!
Thank you ❤️
I work full-time remote, but pretty flexibly. I often split my days to work a little during the day and then after my kids to go to bed. They also go to a hybrid co-op 3x per week, which helps a LOT. It's definitely a struggle somedays and I do sacrifice my own personal time and peace quite often. I'm seeing the fruits of the labor though since my kids are doing to well and thriving with our routines.
I also had a part time nanny for many years but not anymore (though sometimes I still wish we did LOL)
I homeschool all 4 of my kids and have a membership for women and I have a revenue design studio. Plus my youngest is disabled and unable to walk or talk. It is a struggle at times. I plan loosely and compartmentalize my days. While I love homeschooling it gets really hard when client work gets busy . I dedicated an entire year to focus on independent learning for my older kids. It has been critical for me. I don’t teach every day. I do 2 -3 days a week. And they work independently the rest of the time. 4 years in we still are finding our flow. But getting better.
I work full time remote from home while homeschooling. It can be difficult to juggle but so worth it.
Thanks for this video! Love all these tips! I too am working full time remote, salaried and homeschooling. Last homeschool year we schooled 5 days a week. It was tough but we made it through and I learned a lot. we were schooling 5 days a week but this next year I am hoping to just do a 4 day work week. I think a couple things you mentioned were spot on-the kids need to learn to be more independent. Also- so important not to put yourself last. So many times there were days I wouldn’t even get to shower and I would just feel so horrible about myself. Time management is so important- i have realized going to bed early so I can wake up early has been so important. Also- meal prepping/planning has helped so much! This year I want to be able to add more enrichment. I would love to be able to take my kids on some sort of outing/field trip once a month. Thankfully my mother is retired and is such a great support system and can also take my boys to do something fun. Co ops can be so hard. So many around me are either a specific type (classical conversations ect) or they require the parent to teach a class. It’s just not very doable for me unfortunately.
That going to bed early is critical. I still struggle with that but when I get up before everyone those are my best days.
I’m heading back to work and have been homeschooling for 10 years. I’d love to see your DITL. I have a 13 and a 15year old they’re fairly independent but I still want to stay involved and teach ❤
That would be nice to see
Hi, Where do you get your materials from? The syllabus and books? I am new at this, where do I get the science, maths, computer books from? I was under the impression that the NYC schools will provide it. Please let me know. Thank you
I am not in NYC. We homeschool completely on our own, so we purchase material from all over- Amazon, Rainbow Resources, Christian Books. I normally link items in my video descriptions.
can i buy one box set for both of my children?
I would recommend buying the online versions so you can print multiple copies of the activity pages for your kids. I also used to make sure each of my kids had a book ( I would normally buy one and get one from the library)
I’ve watched so many videos on homeschool record keeping and this video has been the most helpful!! Thank you so much!!
Thank you so much for this review!! This is literally the review I needed and you answered all the questions I had about this literature kit. ❤
Is this comparable to Sonlight’s science program with the exception of the picture books?
No it is a completely different program. I’m sure the concepts + scope and sequence are similar as they both follow state standards but very different curriculum flows.
@@gatheredandgroundedhomeschool Thanks 😊
Glad to hear things are going well for you guys! Thanks for sharing!
This looks so fun! Can’t wait to try it out! ❤
if you’re doing something g like Sonlight where you’re reading 3 pages one day and then maybe 2 pages another day of the same book can you make it that specific here?
I talk about that more in this video ruclips.net/video/ojEhiZ1u_Ew/видео.htmlsi=JOA_BMN4u6J-27e8
are you still using this system?
We are currently on a 4 day school week because coops aren’t in session, once they start back up we will switch to 3-day a week
