So sweet!!!!! I love your reviews. I wasn't familiar with this curriculum until you posted. I know everyone uses TGATB but I never had peace about using it. I've looked at it and it is pretty but I do like things that are steeped in Jesus and pointing out kids to him. 🥰

[@oursweetiebirdshome]

Thank you so much for your support! ❤️ I didn’t have peace continuing it, so I am thankful for the change!

[@brookelewis8958]

Thank you so much for sharing! I tried every math out there and nothing worked (for my second grader) until we tried CLE. I’ve already ordered their grade 3 LA to use for the upcoming year. We are excited!

[@oursweetiebirdshome]

Yes! We love CLE math! ❤️

[@HerDailyJourney]

I've been debating what I want to do for next year LA. We love CLE math. I'm definitely going to look further into their LA program. You did a great flipthrough and overview

[@oursweetiebirdshome]

I am so looking forward to the switch! ❤️

[@tatyana1324]

Thank you for such a thorough review 🤗 Thanks to your review I have ordered kindergarten 1 and 2.... Can't wait to start 😊

[@oursweetiebirdshome]

Oh awesome! I hope you and your little one loves it! ❤️

[@triciamoon6312]

This is excellent! Thank you so much for this video and reference! Exactly what I was looking for!

[@oursweetiebirdshome]

I am so glad. Thank you for watching!

[@jennajones684]

Love ur videos always make me feel such a peaceful calm joyful feeling watching !🥰

[@oursweetiebirdshome]

That is so kind of you. Thank you so much for the support! ❤️

[@kathleenstephenson2928]

Thank you for this! I just purchased it!

[@oursweetiebirdshome]

Awesome! I hope you love it!

[@MariaMaria-sr8zg]

We did K2 and my daughter also loved finishing a workbook And an activity book on the same day hah. So excited the next day to start her new books.

[@oursweetiebirdshome]

Yes! It’s wonderful! ❤️

[@SWKS_AG05]

Thank you so much for sharing ❤.

[@graceabounding7]

Thank you so much!! This has been so helpful. ❤️ I think I'll be switching my 1st grade so to this as TGTB is too fast and not enough practice. He's getting frustrated with how fast the lessons are and he isn't interested in the art projects, he'd much rather build with blocks or create outside.

[@oursweetiebirdshome]

This was our experience as well. I hope you have a great day! ❤️

[@MealsMadeAtHome]

I’ve been loving your content! Everything is so useful. Could you make a video on how you navigate a school year? I noticed both TGATB and CLE only have 120 lessons. I don’t have to meet a specific number of days but I also don’t want large gaps in between years but also worry about advancing too quickly if I start the next level. It’s a lot of time to fill. Any advice welcome. New to homeschool and I have a kindergartener. ❤️

[@oursweetiebirdshome]

Thank you so much for your kind words! Yes! I will plan on making a video on that soon. I am doing a four day a week schedule, and then allowing time for more breaks. ❤️

[@user-fb5ze9fx7e]

This was a very helpful flip through. I think I will probably end up using this.

[@oursweetiebirdshome]

I am glad you enjoyed it!

[@madisonm2838]

I absolutely love all of your videos! Do you find that you need a bit more guidance as the teacher? Do the light units explain rules well to the kids? I am one who really appreciates scripted books for my kids. Sometimes it can be hard for me to know exactly how to explain things. So it can be so helpful to have something that I can just read to them.

[@oursweetiebirdshome]

The teacher guides do an amazing job walking you through what to teach. Very open and go!❤️

[@sheenam8847]

Have you used CLE Learning to Read? I am debating if I need the CLE LA to go with Learning to Read like it is scheduled in the teachers guide. Thanks for the tip through!

[@oursweetiebirdshome]

I bought both for the upcoming school year! I called CLE and they suggested doing both the Reading 1 and LA together. They are both very different. The Reading 1 will focus on the actual word growth and reading fluency and the Language Arts focuses on the phonetic skills, blends, sounds, punctuation, etc. Both are very gentle yet thorough. ❤️

[@sheenam8847]

Yes I saw that they suggest reading and LA but I thought first grade started with the Learning to Read program followed up with the LA and Reading? Did you do Learning to Read first or was your little guy already reading? I am just debating if Learning to Read, LA and Reading are too much for him.

[@MariaMaria-sr8zg]

@@sheenam8847 I'm not the person who made the video but I do know you start Learning to Read and then on a specific lesson you then add LA 1 . After you finish LTR then you add Reading 1. You won't be doing all 3 at the same time. You will, at a certain point, do one of the reading programs and the LA at the same time. If you go to their site you may be able to see the schedule they suggest. It also includes Math 1 and Bible on the schedule if you are doing that as well. The site is very well laid out I think. I just reread your comment and I'm not sure if anything I said was more than you knew hah.

[@nishanarine9498]

Thank you so much for this !! With this curriculum is it for the whole school year of grade 1 language arts?

[@oursweetiebirdshome]

Yes, it is!

[@nishanarine9498]

Thank you! God bless

[@Missnenanay]

Do you feel teacher guides are a must? Between LA, LTR and reading….that’s quite a bit plus all their teachers guides?

[@oursweetiebirdshome]

I haven’t found them to be necessary as of yet. ☺️

[@wendymilne-emslie8329]

I love the look of all of the CLE curriculum. How much religion is mentioned in the language arts, reading and maths curriculums please? X

[@oursweetiebirdshome]

It's faith based, so most of the stories have to do with God/building character. The math has a minimum amount. :)

[@wendymilne-emslie8329]

@@oursweetiebirdshome thank you so much for replying. ❤️

[@amberleggio335]

Does this have a lot of grammar? I am not super into heavy grammar a young age.

[@oursweetiebirdshome]

It touches on some lightly, but it’s not strong. It’s overall a very gentle approach for the little years! ❤️

[@rubymorrison106]

We are doing TGTB right now and my daughter hates all of fluff & stories and she gets so frustrated when I read it or when I take more time trying to skip through it.

[@oursweetiebirdshome]

I am getting ready to do a homeschooling update video because we had to change from TGATB to CLE for my kindergartener for that reason! ❤️

[@jessicadan2423]

I noticed you didnt get any flashcards like the sight words, phrase, or phonics flashcards. Did you feel they werent necessary?

[@oursweetiebirdshome]

I used the phonics cards and found them to be very useful!

[@jessicadan2423]

@@oursweetiebirdshome thats helpful, those were the ones i was considering. Thank you!
