It was really fun to hear about your choices for the new year! I hope you guys have a lot of fun with all these resources in the months to come.

[@OdetoAbode]

Thanks Rachel!!

[@dianachen4986]

Love this!! We basically use all the same things except for history quest. We are currently doing story of the world. Not a lot of secular homeschool moms out there so really appreciate your videos.

[@OdetoAbode]

I kind of want to try SOTW... Do you like it??

[@dianachen4986]

@@OdetoAbode we do!! I have the books and bought the mp3 too we listen during breakfast and do either the activity from the activity book or map work and then use the usborne world history encyclopedia pages that is recommended in the activity book.

[@OdetoAbode]

@@dianachen4986 SOTW & HQ look very similar... I heard that SOTW has more religious content and that's why I chose HQ... But I have also seen people combine them (their activity pages) ... I may need to do a side by side comparison!

[@dianachen4986]

@@OdetoAbode when I first started homeschooling all I could find was the religious curriculum so just use it and skipped the religious stuff. I didn’t know HQ excited.

[@OdetoAbode]

@@dianachen4986 Yes there are very few of us who choose secular! Glad to "meet" you :D

I'm a new subscriber and love your curriculum choices. I have been eyeing b&r science 2, and am excited to see how it works for you. We are also about to start sci level 0.

[@OdetoAbode]

I'm so happy you're here!! Curriculum twinsies!

[@OdetoAbode]

We used B&R science yr1 and loved it. I'll update about yr2, of course!!

[@melissacapps8453]

Flip thru with history quest! I wld love to see that.

[@OdetoAbode]

You're in luck! I just put that video up yesterday!!

[@dianacalle5215]

Love all of your choices. You probably already heard of Build Your Library and she uses History Quest for level 1!

[@OdetoAbode]

Yes I have a few friends that use BYL and it may be something we try in the future :D

[@homeschoolresourceswithnad186]

Deciding to homeschool has been a long process. I am a parent of a special needs child and we are doing the trial and error. We also have a channel documenting our journey and write no going through some curriculum trials if you want to check out.

[@OdetoAbode]

So nice to "meet" you! Just subscribed to your channel!!

[@tuathadesidhe1530]

I'm mumma to a couple of special needs kids, I personally think home education is the best way to meet their individual needs.

[@homeschoolresourceswithnad186]

@@tuathadesidhe1530 yes he is learning so much more at home

[@kristinajones9975]

Mind me asking what your eyes are on for future ELA? I am in a similar place and wondering if you are considering similar programs.

[@OdetoAbode]

Right now, the program I'm most excited to try is Michael Clay Thompson ... I will still need to supplement spelling, some social studies type reading and maybe more literature. But yeah that's where I'm looking 😎

[@kristinajones9975]

@@OdetoAbode I will have to check that out. Thanks.

[@user-vg8ez9cu6u]

New subscriber here! Love your selections. Can you please do an overhead flipthrough of SCI level 0? Thanks in advance for your response!

[@OdetoAbode]

I sure will!!! I'll try to have that for you next week or the following

[@user-vg8ez9cu6u]

@@OdetoAbode Also, you were using TYCTR100 in earlier videos. Did it not work? Why did you end up having to use AAR curriculum?

[@OdetoAbode]

@@user-vg8ez9cu6u great question! I will be talking about this in an upcoming April Update. It's a very recent change

[@user-vg8ez9cu6u]

@@OdetoAbode okay, thanks. I will look out for it. 😊
