@@leticiabailey2107 a.co/d/40OvfhS Proclick binding spines. I have ordered this size as well as the smaller size and prefer the spines that hold 90 pages. I hope that helps!

@@ShawnaDawn06 I don’t think shapes are covered. I like to use Jack Hartmann videos on KZbin for shapes along with puzzles and picture books to go over shapes. I believe calendars are touched on but I found that my children needed daily practice with the calendar. I printed a sheet from TPT that we used every day along with calendar songs. The book Sing a Song of Seasons is a fun way to go over the date as well.

@@helloharrishomeschool9554 This is VERY helpful. Thank you!!!

@@ashleymurphy4813 i really loved the beginning of it. As we progressed my child needed something different. It is a solid program, as is alpha phonics. I love them. But it simply didn’t mesh with this child. We are actually using Treasure Hunt reading which is also free and it has gone SO MUCH better with this child. It has a video component, a free printable pdf workbook, and includes games in it that he enjoys. He is now actually reading and progressing. I hope to make a video about it in the near future.

@@helloharrishomeschool9554 oh funny my daughter couldn’t stand Treasure Hunt Reading 🙈

@@ashleymurphy4813 I think my oldest would have hated it as well! I love that there is a variety of free reading resources

@@ashleymurphy4813 we are still using the composer study and artist studies this year very slowly. I think we are planning on adding Shakespeare and poetry in the second half of the year 😊

Thank you! Can you tell me- Did you print the lesson guides somehow? Only half of the subjects have printable lesson guides from what I’m seeing but you had mentioned in your video that it was tricky, but you did figure it out, correct?

@@birdybirdy7737 I did the lesson but didn’t linger on it. Then as contractions came up in real life, read alouds, etc I’d just point them out and briefly go over them again. Eventually it stuck 😊

@@helloharrishomeschool9554 Thanks so much for your reply! That's what I plan to do. I found some videos of Samuel Blumenfeld going through the lessons in Alpha Phonics. Those can be found on Camp Constitution on KZbin. Just thought I'd share in case anyone is interested in the author's idea of how the lessons should go. There are also Little Companion Readers and a workbook available on Amazon written by a different person but I believe she was affiliated with Alpha Phonics when Blumenfeld was still alive. HTH!

@@berrypatch5583 we are well thank you! Life with baby number 4 has been very busy. I hope to come back to KZbin this school year 😊

@@danahall1282 i believe there are answer keys for the Wentworth arithmetic series. But not for number stories or first year in numbers

@@danahall1282 Wentworth arithmetic goes above what I have printed out here. This blog post by sherry Hayes talks more about them 😊 momdelights.com/index.php/2022/04/25/free-complete-math-curriculum/

I believe the girl version is called polished cornerstones. It is on my list to purchase for my little girl in a year or so 😊

First year in numbers is pretty simple, it’s a lot of basic math facts and simple multiplication. I bet you’ll do great with first year in numbers. I didn’t struggle teaching that one so much. My oldest is currently in Wentworth arithmetic and it’s been so long since I’ve learned all my times tables that I’m relearning right along side him! I think Its really doable. Just try to remember that it’s okay to go at their pace and add in additional practice or support if you need it ❤️

@helloharrishomeschool9554 thank you so much!

Cursing??

@@helloharrishomeschool9554 yes! i hate that! did you see the timestamps in my comment? whoever made this need to censor it!

I took a black marker and marked out a few words in the book 😉

@@berrypatch5583 good idea!

If you go to the link in the description about the reading clinic at donpotter.net there is a link to the teachers guide.

7:56 ???

I’m so glad this could be helpful 😊

I cannot find the exact one. I found it in the Well Educated Heart Facebook group in their files. This one is similar lookaside.fbsbx.com/file/WEH%20Rotation.pdf?token=AWz30Y9m1hdI_NrYGnSsY1Wmi0UzAhuYbUeA44i2m3vaeHSl9j_k-SbRp7Ei0vK6RIvlqFfG9x2PO8IpJ8pID2ErjLDEuHpBjv4LB8uLkvWmF05NFoC5qYlv4TzQpFpm_5UMsBgtZUfw3TmOtaZVZouZ3XTQ2A0FFHH52odwONRWNiaVgQ_OqcJP_YQxu1aC8H5KfdfijpyhGGqg-rzoiELdqCKQ6qVVxfWo18ZjIUF3eNq82JwcH_yzqRwBCgijvZM

Here is the link for the proclick binding machine a.co/d/1D85QLR I have not used a gentle feast. I have heard good things about it but I love the flexibility of using under the home and resources from libraries of Hope.

I do still use this but I use more of a loop schedule. This year was a new baby year so we have slowed down. I still love the curriculum 😊

If you click the link in the description under more articles there are more links to phonogram cards and a whole host of other resources. It should be on Don Potters website.

The book they are using is on internet archive for free. When I look on my phone there is a little icon that looks like a box with an arrow next to the button to print the workbook. When you click that it takes you to the internet archive link. You can scroll down on that page and there are lots of download options, including a pdf option. You can print the book from internet archive and then the 5th grade weekly checklist can help you see what chapters you should be doing each week. The workbook may also say in it what chapter to be reading. I hope that helps!

I can’t for the life of me find the link for that book. I’m so sorry. But there are similar pages on teachers pay teachers If you search place value

Thank you for letting me know! I fixed the problem and all links should work now 😊

It is a bit overwhelming but it’s so beautiful and encouraging. It’s a fun journey to be in that’s for sure! I hope it blessed you 😊

If the child easily read the previous lesson I move on, if they finished it but there were some struggles I will try to review by doing Flashcards or using magnets or having them wrote a few of the words from before. Then I will move to the next lesson if they did well.

I have been picking two language arts components a day and the rotating through them. Some days we may read from the McGuffey reader and do a grammar lesson and other days we may do PLL and cursive. I don’t have a strict schedule. If we don’t finish a lesson one day we’ll do it the next and then move on to a different language arts piece the next day. And then math, independent reading, and Bible are every day. I hope that helps 🙂

I will definitely keep this in mind if we hit a wall with our current choice! Thank you!

That’s so exciting, WEH is such a fun adventure ❤️

I’m so glad you like it! Love vintage curriculum and sharing it with others 😊

Yay 😀

Glad you like them!

Thank you ❤️ I’m so glad you’re loving number stories!

@@helloharrishomeschool9554 hey I was curious have you used number stories book 2? If so what is your opinion about it?

@@insidekzsweetworld I have! I really liked using number stories 2. I felt that it laid a great foundation for my two boys that have gone through it.

@@helloharrishomeschool9554 thank you for replying. 🙂I hope to try it out in the coming weeks almost done with book 1.
