Love your Christmas plans!! They sound so cozy and special!! We’re planning on doing A Christmas Carol novel study and we always do lots for the solstice too!! Baking Sun Bread has been a tradition since we did that B&R book seed years ago! It’s one of our faves!! Also, have you ever looked into Logic of English for your son? It’s similar to AAR, but it’s more game-based or physical- like jump to each phonogram! My 3 active boys have done so well with it!! If you like RSM, then Logic of English might align with your style too!

You have quickly become one of my favourite homeschool KZbinrs! I have been binge watching all your videos ❤ Your daughter reminds me SO much of my oldest son who is 6. I would love to see how your daily rhythm looks. It’s something we have struggled with and end up homeschooling at all sorts of random different times throughout the day which has then made it really hard to get very much done and often ends up being just the bare minimum. You seem to fit in so many different things into your days, I’d really love to add in some unit studies like you have done but struggling to find the time in the day. Any tips would be great! Thank you for sharing such wonderful content ❤
@ashleymurphy4813 10 күн бұрын
@@serenafreitas63 hello! That is very sweet and feels great to hear. Thank you. I think there are a few main things that we do that has created success and consistency. One is beginning school everyday at 9am. Sometimes it gets pushed to 9:15 or 9:20 but if I don’t have the reigns on when we start, I will really struggle to complete what needs to be done. We are most alert in the morning. Even squeezing in piano practice or independent reading later in the day is like pulling teeth. The 2nd thing that has brought success is planning ahead. I plan ahead our units at the beginning of the year (the start date does change often but at least I have or have made plans for the resources I need). About 3 weeks before the unit will begin, I have started typing up a detailed week by week schedule of the unit so all I need to do is follow the bullet points for that lesson. An easier option would be to NOT DIY your own unit 🙈 and buy one pre planned. One other thing I do before the beginning of the next week is to write out our schedule in my planner and to prepare all of the little miscellaneous manipulatives and project pieces that our curriculum calls for that week so that I am not searching for annoying little things the day of the lesson. Lastly, I am obsessed with homeschooling and do think it takes a level of obsession to do as much as I try to do. I have nothing against open and go curriculums bc, geez, that looks a lot easier!😅 I have a Day in the Life video from maybe 8 weeks ago you could watch if you haven’t seen it yet! I’m planning on doing another since some of our curriculum has changed since then.

@ thank you so much for the tips! Definitely agree you need to be obsessed with homeschool! I am also so obsessed and spend all my spare time researching and collecting so many different homeschool resources but for some reason I just struggle so much to implement them 😆 it is partly because my son is very active and even when I try to make things fun he still just wants to go off and climb trees 😅 my 4 year old son is a different story and loves anything to do with “school” even though he’s still young and it’s minimal. My oldest has never ever been interested in anything to do with school but what’s funny is he has an amazing attention span when it comes to listening to stories 🤷🏼♀️ he could listen for hours so we might have to try some of the hearth magic book studies that you have done. What would you do if when you told your kids it was time to start homeschool they refused and said they didn’t want to?
@ashleymurphy4813 10 күн бұрын
@ oh I definitely didn’t say that my oldest (2nd grade) likes school🫣 There are some things we do that she really likes but she would gladly skip most of it. American Girl History has been a godsend for us and chapter book read alouds, typically. But she hates math and learning to read. Teaching her how to read has been, frankly, terrible. I cannot wait for that part to be done. My four year old, now five, is like yours. He loves math and reading and most of the projects we do. We have had to get much firmer in our parenting styles since beginning school. We are typically more gentle and give our children a lot of freedoms but that has changed with school. 9am, hair brushed, teeth brushed, and meet me at the table. They know school could go to 12 but can end early if she pays attention. Some days are great, some are bad. Often times I separate them for independent subjects but I have my husband home which helps a lot.

As a homeschooling mom of five, with my oldest almost 11, I can relate to your reading journey! We started with TGTB, Teach Your Child to Read, ect. Then All About Reading, which worked until the middle of Level 1 for him. His reading became choppy and he was getting frustrated and just not enjoying reading, so we switched to Alpha Phonics and a Charlotte Mason approach with the Free and Treadwell readers, and that really clicked for him and he took off reading. For my second and third children (9 and 7), both high-functioning on the Autism Spectrum (one with severe Childhood Apraxia of Speech), we tried nearly every program out there that you can think of without success. After a six-month break with my second, we found success with The Good and The Beautiful. However, my third still hasn’t found the right fit. I recently came across a recommendation for Toe by Toe and just ordered it-hoping it’ll be the solution we need! Thanks for sharing your journey; it’s so encouraging to hear different experiences!

i think you might be confused about what "busy work" usually is... and i dont mean to come across as critical or rude, but helpful constructive info for meaningful content... busywork is typically simple, topic-related work that keeps kids busy and occupied but not necessarily challenged. it tends to be work that builds repetition, which some kids do benefit from, but for many, its just stuff that keeps your kids busy and on topic, maybe while you work with a sibling or other student. work that is too challenging for your student would not be "busywork", in fact all of the things you listed are the things that would build on your topic to bring the "easy" content up to grade level.

I also said that I didn’t feel the program made a lot of sense in terms of its very junior content and its more mature expectations. This program likely works great for many families, but all in all, we prefer more hands on, in the field sort of living science. Thanks for watching

I think we are in a time where a wave of these types of videos and posts will come about. I watched as the unschooling craze flooded the homeschool pages. I actually spent a lot of time earning people not to think it was some magical thing. Although I didn't start homeschooling my son until he was in 6th grade (he is 16 now), I have been deep in tje homeschool forums and community since before he was in Kindergarten. I have seen many homeschool fads come and go, but what has been different any the recent unschool7ng and deschooling fads is that it was driven mostly by newer homeschool moms who made aesthetically playing TolToks and KZbin videos. And all the young new mamas latched on. I also am just a nerd and i have had an interest in literacy since before my son was even thought of. I don't think it is dangerous for mothers who aren't "experts" to homeschool, but i do think they need to do a lot of research and, beware of trends. Reading is a complex skill that involves a lot of ore- reading skills. And none of them just happen. There are so many important skills that are not "name the letter". I personally think unschooling is an extreme solution to a desire to follow a child's interests. It is completely possible to follow a child's interests while also teaching them the foundational skills of reading, writing, and Math. You are not alone and I think many people are wooed by making everything fun and gentle, to the extreme of not wanting learning to ever be work, but children have parents for a reason. We are here to guide them and teach them skills beyond what they feel like doing.

We’ve had a somewhat similar journey. When my daughter was in 1st grade I realized she wasn’t progressing much in reading. I thought it was my inconsistency so I doubled down on lessons but she continued to struggle. I eventually found AAR right before 2nd grade and also didn’t want to “go backwards” by starting her with level 1. I then came to the same conclusion you did and got L1. And it was the best decision! We took our time and it took us the entire year to go through it (I thought it would be much quicker). She’s 8, 3rd grade and we’re at the beginning on L2. It’s been slow and steady progress but she really took off with AAR! She’s not “at her age level” yet but I’m confident after L2 she’ll be a confident, independent reader! 😭 I suggest going all the way through, the sounds she’s currently struggling with are in the last 1/3 of L1. So taking time to review and honestly both of y’all learn the program either way review words would be 👌🏻
