Mothers are saints!

I love how you did journaling with your son! I’m going to have to try that with my daughter because trying to come up with a quick summary for a notebook entry is sometimes crippling for her. And this is a good tip to know for when my youngest is ready to start writing.

Hi! What level was that WriteShop program?

Such a fun first day! Thanks for sharing!!

Thank you so much for this flip through! I'm having a hard time choosing a writing curriculum for my daughters and this seems to be a great fit!

Are you able to just purchase the curriculum without the online component? Do you get the full curriculum book if you purchase just one month or only have access to certain countries?

Loved this! I want to see more of your garden and the future pickles! We pretty much lived at our pool this summer with breaks to drive to the Jersey shore and soak up as much ocean time as possible. Now we are back and I'm so thankful for the long break.

This looks fun!

Thank you for sharing this, Kristi! I hope you guys have so much fun with this!

Wow! Great video! This gave me some resources I didn’t know existed or needed until now. Thank you!!!

How fun ❤

This was super helpful. My 13 year old is also a very reluctant writer so I was looking at this level for him and it was reassuring to see you're using it with a 13 year old as well. On the website I couldn't tell much but your flip through was great and the activities look so fun!

Do you have to send the second grade syllabus

Thank you for this flip-through! The Write Shop is on my wish list, and your video helps me see the curriculum in more detail. Also, thank you for sharing your daughter's experience with writing. My 11 year old is a reluctant speller and writer. I was hoping a junior level with The Write Shop would help her. It's encouraging when other homeschool parents share their experiences. It's a great reminder everyone learns differently and to go at your child's pace. 🙏🏽💜

Too expensive!

Thank you so much for this! I appreciate the reminder that the homeschool day in the life videos we watch are just showing snippets of their day and the hard parts are not being shown. Such an important thing to mentally prepare for as we start our homeschooling journey! Thanks for sharing your wisdom with us!💜

I’ve been comparing a few different all in one enrichment curriculums. I love Rachel’s approach to schooling. All but ONE of her entire book list was in my library system catalog. Thanks for this! Between her free online sample and your walk through video, I think I’m going to pull the trigger.

Great video, Kristie, it's really interesting to get a good look inside!

We love apologia math! We have used several math curriculums over the years with my two oldest but never loved them. This September will be our third year using apologia math. My third born will be starting level 6 (she loved levels 4 and 5) and my youngest will start level one.

Thanks for sharing your experiences

Great video! 👍 Thanks for sharing! ❤️

Thank you! This was so helpful to see before we bought it

Thank you for this! I just figured out they had a math curriculum while researching the science ones! I have a couple of kinesthetic learners so I am so excited about this. Your review was so well done and comprehensive.

How much faith is woven through it? We are a secular family but this looks like a fun curriculum

So the teachers guide doesn't have a script for the teacher? It looks like all the explanations are in the student book. I'm currently using bju and I hate how much is in the teachers guide.

This is exactly what I needed to see! Thank for making this video. Very Very helpful!!

This is one of my favorite reviews I have seen on curriculum yet! Incredibly helpful in every way. Thank you!

That was super helpful. Thanks. This may work for us too!

Where did you have it printed?

How did the Abeka Reading work for y’all? I see you’re using something different next year.

Is this online for an older struggling reader to do?

Wow! Thank you so much for this amazing review/flip through! I think I’m gonna switch from Rod & Staff to Apologia!

Did you enjoy these? Have you kept using them? I know youve mentioned you have a reluctant writer. I do also😅 I'm trying to decide if this will be a good fit for 4th grade.

This was so sweet! Thanks for sharing

I think The Ordinary Parent’s Guide to Teaching Reading is one of the most underrated phonics/reading curriculums out there. We love it! I love the simplicity and optional activities if needed. We buy a variety of decodable readers for extra practice. We have moved much faster than I expected. My oldest should be finished with it by the end of 1st grade. My 4 year old is on lesson 75. They enjoy it too! And usually ask to do more than one lesson. Though sometimes we split out a lesson over 2-3 days. Depends on what is taught. We like having the separate student book. They like to hold it the whole lesson. We also watch AlphaPhonics to supplement. It helps clarify some of the early blends, digraphs, etc.

I’ve tried a lot of similar reading curriculum. I ended up quitting what you are using now and worked with a reading therapist that guided us to use All About Reading, slightly modified.

Hi there! Curious if your still using this? Did your child actually retain the lessons?

I have a first grader, but he is struggling. Is it a problem if I start abeka at k5 level?

Did you end up doing any other campfire c units?

Would this be good in case our child decides to go back to public school? The more Christian based curriculums worry me that they won't have enough for the "public school" standard.

Thank you for this flip through. I'm really thinking about using this curriculum for my kiddos. 😊

Sounds like all about reading is best fit for your son. You can reuse it for your other kids too

Your older daughter reminds me of my kid ❤I love this

Sweet kids ❤

Sweet kiddos ❤ This was fun! 😊

I do this with my kiddos too! They are way more invested when they feel as though they have autonomy when it comes to curriculum choices! Thanks for sharing. 🤗

I don’t like the booster cards I think the words were to hard an it went way to quickly. We watch lots of blending videos on RUclips and listen to the letter sounds over an over . That has seemed to help the most

11:08 I do dictionary “copy work”, I’ll select 3 grade-appropriate words for my older kid to put in alphabetical order & then just copy the definitions. My younger kid will pick 1 of those 3 words & do the same. HOWEVER, I love your take on this with an encyclopedia. I see how they’re practicing grammar with this too.

This was super helpful!

We love the US History units from Gather Round.
