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😊
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!❤
I love your wood shop and architecture class plan. What a great idea! I’m trying to find electives for my son, who is going into the 9th grade, and it is so hard since he doesn’t know what he wants to be when he becomes an adult. Trying to give him options and learn about new traits I think will open him up to different ideas. Thank you 😊
Electives were always my favorite part of school. One thing we would like to do with our kids is introduce them to a few different trades. My husband being in the construction industry, those tend to come to mind first. But we like the idea of equipping them to have knowledge for a job after high school. If they choose to do college they will have an easier time paying for it. We are considering having them pick a trade in high school to do an internship with for this purpose.
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.
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.
It really does look like a wonderful series, I’m excited to get into it. My kids have only a few lessons left of their current Masterbooks let’s talk science books. Those have been fun for us too.
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.😊
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.
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.
I’ve never bought the teachers guide, so not really sure what’s in it. My kids are pretty independent with these, especially my oldest. Sometimes they will ask for help searching for a book of the Bible, but other than that they do it on their own.

Thanks for the info! I was wanting to bring in added enrichment resources into our curriculum, I’ll make sure to look that channel up! 💕
You’re doing great! We all learn as we go.

I’ve been hearing about Wild Robot for so long, I’m excited to finally be trying it out.
Lots of good info and choices here. Thanks for sharing! ❤
You’re welcome, glad it was helpful. 😊

Thanks for letting me know! I’ll be sure to look up that movie after he reads it, thank you. ☺
@acozyview the movie is called Sgt. Stubby: An American Hero

Thank you! Feel free to add any ideas of your own on any of the videos, it’s always nice to hear from other homeschool moms. ☺

You’re welcome. It’s all new to me, but I’ll be sure to share what we’re trying out along the way. ☺
Love your woodshop resources!
Thanks! We’re all really excited to see how it turns out.
Doing great! We tried tgtb 6 last year, was too much for us but it's well made for sure.
Thanks, yeah sometimes the best answer is to just pivot when curriculum just isn’t working.
Send all the books by post so I don't have to by them
I’m sorry, I don’t understand your question.
