Thank you for being so authentic 💛
Ahh, thank you for the support!
I’d love to see you do a lesson of Abeka’s phonics program!
Thanks for the content!
You’re such a great homeschool mom! It was fun to see how you interact with your kids ❤
Ahh, thank you!
You do such a great job keeping your days organized - thanks for sharing!
Thanks for the support!
Loved seeing how your family does school! ❤️
I loved seeing this peek into your day! Please keep them coming. It really helps in getting ideas on how things flow. I’d also love a video on how you use Abeka’s phonics program 😊
Thanks for the support! I will add the Abeka phonics program to my list :)
I love that you have the desks face each other! I don’t know why I never thought of that haha way better than the wall/window 🙈
Haha, I just did that this year, it has been much better than facing the walls :)
Loved watching this video! It was really nice to see a homeschool day😃
So nice to see your day ❤️ thanks for sharing mama!
You are very welcome!
Always been curious with your DITL homeschool edition. Thanks for sharing! ❤
Loved this! Thanks for sharing. I am still struggling to find the right schedule this year with my 4 yr old twins and my 6 yr old. I'm juggling so many of the same things as you with a first grader and two preschoolers. The younger twin siblings factor always keeps life interesting! 😂
Haha, twins are a very unique factor and they always keep things interesting!
Loved seeing your routine in action!
Thank you!
I loved seeing your day! It's always fun to see other mommies because you are sure to get ideas. Thanks for sharing 💕😉 It also greatly inspired me since I just started my own channel and would like to do a day in the life while at the same time not share too much of my little girl, and I'm so glad to hear you are doing this as well 🙌😉
I took a little thought in setting up camera angles but it wasn't too bad!
Love love this video! Do you happen to have your schedule on paper? It is SO helpful to see how others structure their day
Also I would love a video on how you teach abeka phonics!
I'm pretty sure I have a current schedule video - probably from the fall. Also, I would be happy to do a video on the Abeka phonics, it is really my favorite!
Thanks for sharing this video. How many hours does it take to do all that? I’m homeschooling 4 out of 5 kids and it takes us many hours!
I had the same question! How many hours?
Our days are long, too. I'm also always curious if other people are taking as long to homeschool as I am. 😅
I do 45 minutes to an hour of individual time with each kid covering Math and LA. We "loop" together subjects like History, Science, etc and try to cover that in an hour. So without interruptions we can finish by lunch, however whatever isn't done by then gets finished after lunch. I go by the rule that as long as we cover Math & Language/Reading we are still on the right track, that's why we get those subjects out of the way first thing. I hope that helps!
I would say on average we school from about 8-11:45 and then about 30ish minutes after lunch :)
Thank you for sharing. What was the book you were reading that was talking about the Phoenician alphabet?
Hi! I think it was A Childs History of the World!
@@sciencemama thank you
could you shine a bit of light on why you homeschool your kids? Not a father yet but I’m considering doing it in the future
I made a video on that topic!

@@sciencemama very helpful video, sounds like you know exactly what you’re doing. My worry is that the teachers my kids get in schools won’t be of very high quality, they’ll be nice but the curriculum won’t inspire creativity. On the other hand, sending them to school helps them get over “separation” issues
Hi could you kindly share the links of the materials you got? Especially those big cards please ◡̈
The big cards are from Abeka!
Thank you for doing this video. I have been wondering how I am going to make my homeschool day work when my younger ones are older. (I homeschool a 7 year old, And I have a 2 year old and a 2 month old) You mentioned that you are doing sonlight LA and Abeka? Are you doing 2 different curriculums for the same subject?
Sort of, I'm using Abeka for the grammar and phonics and Sonlight for the copywork and composition!
How long does it take u to homeschool each child? Do you take breaks in-between or power thru ?
It’s hard to say because I kind of rotate between them but we school from about 8-12:30ish!
What did you end up settling on for writing? My 8yr old is really struggling and I need guidance lol
I've really settled on the Sonlight composition program ... but working really closely with my kiddos, similar to the Brave Writer suggestions :)
What is the name of the history book where you discussed who invented the alphabet?
Lovely to see your day.
I'd love to know, too! I use History of the World by Susan Wise Bauer but on the hunt for a book that can summarize well.
It's an Usborne ancient history book, the ones with the flaps. They have so many good ones to choose from.
The Usborne Book of World History. 😊
The book in the video is the Usborne book of World History but the book I was referring to that talked about the alphabet was the Childrens History of the World book :)
How long does it take you to homeschool your kids at what are their ages? TY
Hi! For my preschoolers - we only school for about 30 minutes. For my 3rd and 2nd grader - we typically go from about 8:30-12:30!
Homeschool parents generally become indignant when people mention socialization, and I understand why they do, but I've been watching lots of videos with an open mind which is why I am genuinely surprised that the children didn't socialize with any other kids during the day. People constantly talk about co-ops, soccer practice, enrichment schools, church (eye roll at that one), "time for a job," etc, but I am shocked to see that the kids really do stay home with no one but siblings all day. Academics aren't everything when it comes to education.
Here's the thing, there is a lot of the day that I am not showing because I don't have the right to show other kids on my videos ... I am cautious of showing my kids, and so there is no way I will show other kids. My kids often play with the neighbor kids after school, they go to one day a week enrichment school and my daughter currently goes to dance twice a week. I realize I could drive myself crazy and sign them up for all the things, but I choose not to for my family. I feel like every family is different and it's good to remember that videos such as this are just a snippet of a larger life.
@@sciencemama Would you like to discuss this further, one educator to another, on my channel during Christmas break? I think it would be a good melding of minds between two opposite ends of education- homeschool teacher and inner city teacher talk challenges, rewards and student success.
@@strangementalitypaperYT I agree with you ! Academics aren’t everything. Family is. For us homeschoolers we prioritize being there for our children, raising them up at home where we know what they are being exposed to, especially in those tender younger years. Teaching them about God without the “eye rolls” of others around. Finding our own community where kids can pursue specific interest without having to deals with bullying…. When all we’re doing is sending them to overwhelmed teachers that already can’t keep up with the amount of kids in classrooms, just to see other people you know that’s the wrong priority.
@@EloisaMartin4 Do you not want your children to think for themselves? Maybe seeing people roll their eyes at religions is good for them. Maybe being exposed to the realities of the world (peer pressure, bullying) will make them stronger and teach them right from wrong. Isolation and information control isn't good for anyone, much less children. The way you described teachers is interesting, too. You definitely don't have a high opinion of us or a good understanding of what it's like in the classroom.
