Angela: "I assume if you're still listening, you're a homeschooling parent" Me: * sits here, childless, doing a grad school paper, just really interested in the concept of homeschooling * 😂😂

[@stacygarcia6201]

I'm a childless public school teacher watching this during my lunch break. 😅

[@crawleyr4919]

My kid is graduating public high school- I couldn’t look away

[@kelleythenurse3283]

My kids are 2 and I highly doubt I’ll homeschool them, yet here I am as well 😂

[@nikiw2n]

@@kelleythenurse3283 I also was a mother who "always" said, "I will never homeschool! That's not for us..." Yet, here I am finishing up our first homeschool school year with my 5th, 2nd, and preschooler! 🤪 My point... Never say never... BTW, I'm also a healthcare worker (CT Technologist in Radiology) and went down to working just one day a week this year to school my children. We will see what next year brings!

[@L--C]

TGTB simple math has been awesome. Every time they make changes to their curriculum they make it better, it’s truly amazing.

[@candicediaz5204]

Would LOVE a video on your high school homeschooling choices!

[@mitzifox4601]

Bring on the Homeschooling High School info!!! My daughter will be in 9th grade next school year! No detail is too small!

[@sarahsheartshome]

I have some highschool content on my channel- and will be doing a fun curriculum haul in a couple of weeks! I’m excited about a few things we will be trying for next year. My high schooler will be in 11th grade next year! Just throwing that out there because it is HARD to find highschool homeschool content on KZbin!

[@MichelleL83]

@@sarahsheartshome , thank you! I'll check out your channel. I have a daughter entering 9th grade next year.

[@JoaquinParker]

YES

[@HoffmansHalfAcreHomestead]

Love this, thank you for the homeschool motivation. I needed it today. Also, I can't tell you enough how much you have blessed my heart as a mother and a homeschool mom.

[@catt0409]

Yes please share more about high school! Are you following your state’s guidelines or specific college requirements in mind? This would be a great one with your mom too.

[@amieparham7657]

I have used Abeka math, Horizons, and TGATB. My daughter using horizons wrote "I hate math" on the edges of her pages. My other daughter using TGATB wrote "I love math" on her pages. I've already bought all 4 of my kids TGATB math for next school year. 😝

[@ritajackson7715]

I love that every family is different. My daughter using TGATB said "too easy, not fun" my daughter using Horizons "this is great, I love this."

[@simonealisa]

We used Stacey Lloyds literature unit on “Fahrenheit 451” this yesr with my 10th grader, it was really well done. I read the book with my kid and its one of my favourites now.

[@melanieallen2992]

Please, please do a video on middle school and high school! Love your personality!!

[@thesimplelifewife3]

I agree with you about letting kids have the small wins to keep them motivated. Thanks for sharing!

[@GracefullyUnraveled]

Def going to look into those tpt literature things you shared about! Happy almost end of the school year to you! ❤️

[@Elizabethsceg]

I purchased the Animal Farm literature unit based on your recommendation and I was pleased as well. My sister ended up buying a unit for her son, too.

[@agathareimer2924]

I'm loving the homeschool content!

[@amybostic1439]

I wish I half had my shit together like you Angela!

[@Carkkii]

Love, love, L O V E this ! ❤️🙏

[@lifewithginab]

The new good and the beautiful math... we really love it too. I agree with your thoughts exactly regarding the old version.

[@luvlyval587]

I heard about Stacey Lloyd from another homeschool YT. I'm impressed by her units and recommend them to everyone.

[@mirandaf2112]

I had no idea there were BOB workbooks! That looks like a workbook my little one would really enjoy.

[@morgs365]

that’s what I said! I’m scrolling through comments to make sure I’m not the only one 😂😂

[@BaudelaireOrphan1]

Awesome video thanks angie!

[@tararitchie_1828]

More information about high school would be wonderful. Thank you for sharing.

[@mostmagicalhomeschoolonearth]

Thank you for sharing! I've been watching your videos for while and many of them were very encouraging as we started our homeschool adventure! 🥰

[@tonjaduncan0315]

Love this video. Also, yes I would love to see more high school content. I’m currently homeschooling a freshman and sophomore. 🌻

[@mrswoodallsc]

Love to have come across your channel! I'm also a ten year veteran homeschool mama... High school down to a 4yo. So your tips and advice and solidarity are so perfect. Thank you for taking the time to share your resources. I also am a lifelong learner, which makes homeschooling through high school even more interesting! (PS. Love your hair and makeup! And I'll have to look up that science!)

[@irinak9476]

I would love more high school content.. I will have a high schooler soon..

[@AbbeyCollins2013]

TGTB just gets better every revision! So thankful for your homeschool content. You were one of my first homeschool bloggers I ever watched and found the good and the beautiful!

[@kimjaymama26]

I am the same. Usually this time of year, I am frantically researching something new because the year went so poorly. But we switched to Heart of Dakota this year and it has been a fantastic year. So many beautiful living books and my kids were able to work independently :) Makes such a difference to have a few years under your belt so you know what will work for your own kids.

[@HaleyWildman]

Loving the homeschool content! 💕 You/your channel was one of my most encouraging resources for starting this journey 4 years ago!

[@kimjaymama26]

I have never heard of the BOB workbooks. Thanks for sharing. They sound like they are similar to explode the code, which we love!

[@michellehanson4957]

Thanks for the content :) My baby is 5 months old, but it's never too early to start planning for the future.

[@kariquick5148]

I'm definitely interested in your homeschooling high school ideas!

[@Homeschoolology]

I need all the middle and high school tips, tricks, and curriculum picks!! Glad I found your channel. Looking forward to watching more.

[@GoingGreenMom]

I am loving The Great Classes/Wondrium right now.... I have Hoopla through my public library, and can get a binge pass for 7 days for it without having to pay anything, and when they added it,they added extra borrows so I didn't really lose anything by borrowing those too.

[@ashleykitani3401]

Love your channel! I would also love to hear about your experience with homeschooling high school! I agree that I don’t feel like there is a ton of information out there about homeschooling high school and my oldest is going into 7th grade this year. So I have a little time but would love to watch more videos on this ❤️

[@mv2b]

I totally forgot about the bob workbook. I loved them with my oldest! Love the homeschool content!

[@kirstynroland2503]

Thank you for sharing about TGATB math, I've been on the fence and you finally convinced me to order for next year- I'm so excited about it!

[@chrystalfromalaska]

Loved the Bob workbook with the Bob books!

[@angieshackelford2592]

Yes!! Please do a video on homeschooling high school!!

[@ashleyirizarry-diaz6415]

Never heard of Bob books so thanks for those reviews looks fun!

Yes, please to the more info on teaching high school!

[@toshakelly4849]

Great video! I’m finishing up my 20th year of homeschooling and found it so neat to watch a video where most of what you mentioned I had never heard of before. On your look up teachers pay teachers for my high schooler who wants to study Asian literature next year!

[@EvanLuke3]

I loved all of your recommendations. I have a rising sixth grader for the fall and I welcome any and all ideas for curriculum especially science! Thank you for making this video. It was extremely helpful! ❤️

[@Dreblueskies]

I never knew about Bob workbooks, thanks!

[@megroux]

Thank you for the science suggestion. I had not heard of them before.

[@ashlynlewis4711]

We absolutely loved the TGTB Math this year. Its exactly what i was looking for and it was fun too. My daughter loved it. Excited to do the K with my 5 year old this year.

[@annalisajasper3333]

This is the best! Could you do a video on how you organize your teacher binder? That is something I would love to see! Also interested in the “elective classes” & learning more! Also love to learn more about middle school! And how y’all do coops or meet friends ect at the older ages! Just ideas! Love your channel!

[@DrKTheManagementProfessor]

Just want to say this is a great channel! I teach management topics online (leadership, motivation, conflict, etc.), and it can be a challenge. I love seeing all of these positive comments!

I don’t do homeschool but it’s very interesting to watch about it 👍🏼

Thank you Angela! I have 2 in High School, 1 in middle school. It's great to get more idea's for that. You're totally not a dweeb! Enjoy your videos immensely. Take care!

[@kniddelliz7512]

I am so intrigued by Wondrium! I've never heard of it but I love to learn, too :)

[@kiersten972]

Yes Homeschooling High School info would be amazing! Love all of your content but some further insight for high school would be amazing ❤️

[@KatsGrimm]

My 5yr old really enjoys Bob Books. She can do it pretty independently and has such a feeling of accomplishment when she can read the book aloud.

[@jamiekimble]

Very informative, thank you. My oldest just turned 3 and I am navigating the “workbooks”. I’ve only purchased from Walmart thus far so I’ll check out the BOB books. Cheers from Southern California (Lake Arrowhead).

Yes, thank you, would appreciate more on High School!

thank you for sharing 💖🙂

[@Godlovesevryone]

I just love your videos! We use TGATB Math with my k and 2 grader. They love it! And yes, if the kids like it, it sure makes it easy to get er’ done! 🎉🎈🤣

[@Mitchy407]

I am not at home schooling parents but I watch every single video you put out 😅

[@klb8559]

This is my first year homeschooling. I have a 7yo in 1st grade. But I am definitely interested in homeschooling a high schooler. Even though that is many years away for us, it already gives me anxiety 😬 Thank you for sharing this info with us!

[@HDContractor]

Yess please share all the high school content!!

[@RACHELORI]

We use TG&TB too. We love it! We love the History & Science books. I hear the Math was re-designed last year & it is much better & easier.

[@AngelaHardiman]

We are doing astronomy for our primary class this month, and Chris Hadfield's Master Class was fantastic! Our son is in the 6th-grade, but I feel even younger children would enjoy it, maybe 4th-grade and up. Master Class has been a big part of our learning. Yes, I would love you to do more upper-grade videos. Thanks, Angela.

[@stephenboyd7450]

Yes, please do a video on creating electives for your high schooler. My oldest will be in 9th grade in the fall. Looking forward to continuing our homeschooling journey

[@amandagonsman1504]

I would love the information on homeschooling a high schooler! My oldest isn’t there yet but will be soon and I want all the information I can get! Love this video!

[@Stacey.Hamrick]

I'm another vote for high school content! We are just about to finish up my oldest's 9th grade year. It went great but I want to make some tweaks next year and some of this information looks perfect for him! We too had a difficult time with science this year... we switched to the Biology 101 DVD course and so far he has liked it. I'm definitely checking out Fascinating Science for next year, it looks so good.

[@amberdietz6754]

Yes please do some videos on homeschooling high school!

[@homeschoollifemom]

We have Bob books but I hadn’t ever heard of those workbooks either! I Ordered one for my son to work through this summer. From what I saw on amazon it Kinda reminds me of Explode the Code only more interesting.

[@CourtneyJay8]

I love that you said we were probably homeschoolers if we were still watching 😂 I love watching these videos and so wish I could do this for my 1st grader! How do people work AND homeschool?

[@onhomeeducation9581]

I did not know Bob Book workbooks were a thing! We have so many bob books… how did I miss this! lol

[@aaajjjjaaaj]

Yes, please talk more about homeschooling high school. I’m almost in that season and am looking for content and wisdom.

[@GandDMcInnes]

Yes please talk about high school

[@Divna22]

Love your mommy looks everytime 🤩🥰🍓 Not the blue ring though 😁

[@kimjaymama26]

And the Good & the Beautiful offers their Math & LA as FREE downloads!!

[@ciannacoleman5125]

I wont even have kids for several more years, but grew up homeschooled and am committed to doing it with my own. I can hardly imagine doing it with so many though lol. I love watching homeschooler videos to gather ideas before I get to that point.

[@morgs365]

I had no idea BOB made work books!

[@teresanorris4769]

Thanks for this video. My daughter is only 2nd grade but this video made me feel less panic about teaching the upper grades and High school. It looks like it is possible with your suggestions.

[@SevenInAll]

I've used quite a few resources created by Stacey Lloyd, and I agree that they are high-quality and effective! I've especially liked her lessons on specific writing techniques.

[@sarahlerner1440]

So helpful, as are all your videos! Thank you!! Wondering whether you might consider doing a video on your favorite/highly recommended "Teachers Pay Teachers" educators & resources? There is so much to choose from on that site, it would be helpful to hear who you go to again and again for various subjects etc.

[@sabrinagonzalez8120]

Hey Angela! Will you talk about the calpak crossbody you took on vacation? I kinda want one but wonder if you love it.

[@kristyfowler3941]

Please please please do more videos about homeschooling high school!! There is a major need here on KZbin.

[@throughfaithandgrace2970]

She’s so dang pretty

[@ashleyirizarry-diaz6415]

Im would be super interested to see what a day looks like with your pre-schooler or younger kids homeschool curriculum/play. I have a almost 3 year old who is just about ready for a more structured day meaning she has liked the toddler “play school” activities we have done so far.

[@kellyquigley275]

Please do more middle & high school videos 😊❤️

[@jessfredericks524]

Please please please do sooooo much more on highschool!

[@SuneScharneck]

I see your Teacher's workbook. Will you be able to maybe do a Video on. What is behind the scenes mother of the homeschoolers. All the work that goes around that and the timing that goes into that and everything you need to know before you start

[@TiahnaY]

You all too often come through with that missing piece I am searching for, for one of my kiddos. Thanks Ang.

[@katieculp778]

I would love to hear what you thought of Fix It Grammar 😊

[@tigerlily1764]

First, I always think you look so much like Scarlett Johansson. You're beautiful! Anyway, I appreciate your channel so much. We homeschool our 4 kids and love it. We recently lost our fifth daughter at 8 days old last Christmas to an extremely rare genetic disorder (Trisomy 22) that we didn't know she had until she was 7 days old. Her story has God's fingerprints all over it and we know that God is using our story for His glory - something good will come out of this. Now we have so much peace and joy as we are in the early stages of the adoption process. We know it probably won't be an easy journey, but there's a baby out there who needs us, and my heart was left with a hole where I need to love and nurture him or her. If I were to get pregnant again I would be a high-risk for uterine rupture because my last baby had to be delivered via classical incision c-section, and I don't think it's wise to put a baby or myself at that risk. Adoption is definitely birthed from loss, as you wisely say. In our case, that applies in more than one way. Your beautiful family is a tapestry woven together so intricately by the Lord, and it has been such a blessing to watch and learn from all you share with us. Thank you for doing what you do.

[@cherrybombb2306]

So sorry for your loss. Praying for the best as you continue your journey

[@kristigeiger3680]

As the summer gets here if you have time, I would love some tips as a seasoned mom on homeschooling on a budget. I don't want to compromise my kids' education but I can't go into debt to do it either. This is my first official year but I've been homeschooling for 2 years technically. Just not on record. But starting for real is a little intimidating.

[@threearrows2248]

The good and the beautiful offer so much of their material for free as a pdf download - if you purchase the curriculum already printed, they're not expensive either. The library is free, and so many things on teachers pay teachers are also free. There's a ton of stuff out there, keep looking on KZbin!

[@dianarosas10]

Would so appreciate high school info. My daughter will be in 9th grade next year. Thank you!

[@kaitlynb2604]

Stacy Lloyd is awesome!
