✍🏼 adding some things to my list for next year! We switched to AO after a term with another CM curriculum and it’s lovely. I agree that SCM makes so many easy to use, helpful resources.

[@hannahgravelle]

I'm so glad to hear this feedback! Thanks for sharing with us!

[@mdnaimulislam826]

Nice💚💚💚

[@allisonsmith7360]

Thanks for sharing! I have loved the SCM resources I’ve seen. I’m just starting to navigate the AO website but I think I want to use a combination for first grade next fall. It’s great to see someone else using both and what that looks like.

[@hannahgravelle]

Absolutely! Thanks for watching! 💓💓

[@kingdomrootedmama]

Love it. I. Will be purchase a big chunk of my curriculum from SCM. and we also are using Ambleside 3rd year.

[@hannahgravelle]

Yay! Exciting!

[@arose5682]

Such a lovely video. We are looking into purchasing some scm materials this week so this came at a great time. Do you use a book of centuries? Can you share how and if you use any notebooking and recitation? Thanks so much

[@hannahgravelle]

Yes! I'll add these to my things to show! My oldest started a book of centuries this year :) and I think I'll show our term exams this year too in more detail!

[@Michelle-sy9ti]

Thanks for the video. I am using MFW for kindergarten. We have twin 3 year olds as well. Always eyeing other curriculums even though I enjoy mfw. Random question. I like that large leaf houseplant. What plant is it?

[@hannahgravelle]

Lovely! Thanks for introducing yourself :) fiddle leaf!

[@SeleenaOtt]

This is so helpful! I’m looking into doing both SCM & AO. Do you mind me asking why you don’t do history/geo/bible with SCM? I love your videos 🤍

[@hannahgravelle]

Honestly when I was introduced to SCM a few years I was using Mystery History and thought it was similar to SCM and I actually took living book recommendations that paired with SCM's which we read!! But last year I decided to just go with AO individually for the girls. I think down the road it might be easier for me to have the 4 kids independently doing their AO history & literature readings than fitting it into morning time. However, I love SCM so I bet it is lovely if you're going for all family-style homeschooling!

[@hannahgravelle]

Just subscribed to your channel 💓💓

[@SeleenaOtt]

That makes a lot of sense! I keep going back and forth between the two for history. We’ll see what we end up picking. Thank you for this video, there aren’t a lot of SCM reviews, so it’s super helpful. Blessings 🫶🏽

[@homeschoollifemom]

I’ve heard good things about SCM’s Book of Centuries. Do you use that? I’d love a peek inside if you do. I love the picture studies too! I have their Midsummer Night’s Dream Shakespeare study. I just need to get up the nerve to do it. I never studied Shakespeare so it feels very intimidating. We also have the Habit books. Now I’m thinking I’ll have to get some copy books as well! 😊 Is there a specific reason you chose to use AO over SCM for you history? I’ve been trying to decide between AO, A Gentle Feast, Heart of Dakota, or SCM. I think I’m down to either HOD or SCM.

[@hannahgravelle]

I decided longterm I wanted history & literature to be an individual study over family-style :) that was the main reason I went with AO for history and readings! My oldest (AO year 4) had really enjoyed the independence this year!

[@hannahgravelle]

My oldest started the book of centuries this year! I'll have to share the inside!

[@homeschoollifemom]

@@hannahgravelle that makes sense! And my main reason I don’t want to use AO. I want all my kids studying the same time period together even if at different reading levels. And esp want to group my oldest 2 together and my younger 2 together.

[@hannahgravelle]

@@homeschoollifemom yes! Totally. 2 years ago I went back and forth but last fall I thought, let's just do this 😆 and it worked out really well for us! But I have lots of friends that want it family style for everything, totally get it! If you're trying to pair only groups of 2 kids, AO groups might be a good option for you too!

[@unamijeremiah7059]

hi. I went through scm website but didn't find TERM 2 Caravaggio (1571-1610; Italian Baroque) and TERM 3 Eugène Delacroix (1798-1863; Romantic). anyone to direct me to the links?

[@hannahgravelle]

Are these terms for ambleside? We don't use the composer study from SCM :)

[@lindsaypotter3694]

What did you use to teach your kids to read

[@hannahgravelle]

My oldest are 10 and 8 and we used 100 lessons to read and then went straight to Pathway Readers! It worked very well for them. I didn't know about Charlotte Mason's approach at the time. Now that I've read Home Education I believe I can use the same book but add in the principles she encourages. A friend did loan me the Simply Charlotte Mason reading curriculum so I'm going to study that over the summer for my 5 year old and decide if I should try that! But I know like to change something that works, and 100 Lessons to Read DID work! :) my girls are confident readers!

[@terpcsmith]

I am a new subscriber. It seems we have very similar ways of homeschooling. I am new to Charlotte Mason and have utilized Ambleside and found that Simply Charlotte Mason’s curriculum is very well done. Thank you for showing it more in-depth. This video has confirmed that it’s what I want to purchase! Is your current schedule/routine still serving you well or will you change it for 2024-25? And maybe another day-in-the-life flow of your day. And what you do specifically for each thing. Thanks!

[@hannahgravelle]

So glad you're here! Thank you for these suggestions! I was thinking it's been awhile since I did a ditl! And our routine is working so well, so I plan to keep the same rhythm (but alas we never know what the future holds, haha)! My 3rd kiddo will be nearly 6 come fall so I might incorporate some of ambleside Year 0 reading together, maybe for 20 minutes a day ❤️

[@terpcsmith]

Awesome! What do you do for History?

[@hannahgravelle]

@@terpcsmith ambleside! I was doing Mystery History which I still recommend as a great family style (it was what I was familiar with from my Mom using it with the last 3 of her kids) but last year I switched it to ambleside, their individual living books. And that has worked really well for us, I still feel like we have a lot of time as a family with morning studies!
