HOMESCHOOL ROUTINE | 2nd GRADE Homeschool Routine | Working Full time and How we make it work

[@lifewithginab]

Let me know ... do you usually get homeschool book work done in the mornings, afternoons or evenings? Thank you so much for watching friends! ❤️ have a beautiful day!

[@thehudsonshub]

Usually between morning and afternoon. 😃

[@lifewithginab]

@@thehudsonshub yes mornings and afternoons are always the best here too!

[@HomeSweetHomeschoolLife]

I tend to just follow my son’s lead. Every day our routine is different.

[@lifewithginab]

@@HomeSweetHomeschoolLife I love that ❤

[@breanas_mommy]

It depends on my daughter! Sometimes she's in a mood to get it out of the way when she gets up. Other days, she's not ready until the evening.

[@thehudsonshub]

I have a 2nd grader too, I love watching other people homeschool.

[@lifewithginab]

I also enjoy watching these types of videos ❤

[@kellymontes9880]

I’m a working homeschool mom too 😅 best decision we’ve ever made for my 1st grader. We definitely have some stressful days but it’s worth it.

[@nadineflexhaug626]

Absolutely love this ❤❤ you've got me feeling totally inspired to do this (just starting out with my 2nd grader) and to be organized with it (organization is something I'm working on!). Thank you!

[@lifewithginab]

Aww thank you for sharing ❤️ I hope you have the best year!!

[@breanas_mommy]

Ahhhhh i love so much of the stuff you have! I know I say that in every video. 😂

[@lifewithginab]

Hahaha!@ thank you!! ❤️

[@breanas_mommy]

@@lifewithginab You're welcome!!!

[@RockSimmer-gal4God]

My older kids are doing their independent work in the evenings and I’m ok with that!!! My older kids now get their books and do a lesson themselves!!! we do gather round and I teach that in our together time

[@lifewithginab]

I love that!!! The flexibility is everything ❤🙏

[@secretsanta3137]

You are such a super mom.. Hats off to you teaching kiddos responsibility and staying calm while being independent..

[@lifewithginab]

You are so sweet! Thank you for your kind words! Getting the kids independent is such a blessing!

[@WilliamTheUnkownShoutout]

This is so great😀.

[@thepracticalhomeschooler]

I’m thinking of adding explode the code for some extra independent practice

[@lifewithginab]

We really like it!!

[@SevenInAll]

What a responsible young man he is! They grow so fast!

[@lifewithginab]

Thank you friend! So proud of him ❤

[@Jessp367]

That map is so beautiful! Great resource for homeschooling 👏

[@lifewithginab]

It's our favorite 😍

[@SweeterAlsoThanHoney]

You are definitely a supermom, working and homeschooling, you are such an inspiration.

[@lifewithginab]

You are sweet friend! You inspire me!

[@brittanyolga]

I really want to try kiwi co for the kids too. I know they will enjoy it to add some more stem project momma doesn't have to think of lol. 🙈

[@lifewithginab]

I've tried a bunch of their subscription for all ages.. there is some I like more than others!

[@SweeterAlsoThanHoney]

We love Kiwi Co too, we get the Tinker crate and the Eureka one.

[@lifewithginab]

Awesome! I've tried both of those... almost all of them really ❤😅

[@thepracticalhomeschooler]

Watching with all my girls…they love your schoolroom, fireplace, map…all of it!

[@lifewithginab]

Awww thank you so much ❤️

[@goingtheextramile0]

I also have a second grader!

[@lifewithginab]

That's awesome! Going to check out your channel ❤

[@bdowiemama3310]

You seriously made me interested in home schooling. Love your methods with it! Also I work full time from home.

[@lifewithginab]

Thank you so much for watching and so glad I could offer some encouragement ❤️🙏

[@thepracticalhomeschooler]

We loved the flashlight and claw! So cool 😄😄 he did great!

[@lifewithginab]

It's been such a fun way to incorporate hands on and stem activities!

[@SweeterAlsoThanHoney]

I love how TGTB Math has that independent practice at the end. I love how my girls can do that party when I am helping their siblings with their work.

[@lifewithginab]

It's just so great!! Definitely a huge plus for me!

[@thehudsonshub]

Thank you for sharing.

[@lifewithginab]

Thanks for watching ❤❤❤

[@brittanyolga]

Thank you again Gina for collaborating with me. This was such a great video to film together.😍

[@lifewithginab]

Loved watching your video ❤

[@char5801]

Thanks so much for this video. This gives me some great ideas for what I can do with my daughter next year who will be a 2nd grader. I will definitely pray before lessons as well, great tip! God bless your family.

[@lifewithginab]

I'm so glad this was helpful!!! ❤️ God bless you and your family ❤️🙏

[@thepracticalhomeschooler]

I love how his and Lexis main subjects are exactly the same…down to crossing off the spelling words! Lol

[@lifewithginab]

I know!!! I noticed that too 😅❤

[@HerDailyJourney]

Love watching how you guys make everything work even on a bad day or week....that kiwi co box activity was really cool....love how you foster independence in him. I'm working on doing that more with my son.

[@lifewithginab]

Thanks mama! The kiwi co box is pretty cool! 😍

[@rachelbatista2035]

Loved this routine! It was nice seeing his day. Nicholas is so independent and smart!

[@lifewithginab]

Thank you ❤❤❤

[@heatherwiltshire0182]

Thank you for sharing! I also have a second grader using TGTB math and LA level 2, explode the code and handwriting. Could you share more on what journal prompts you do with him? Thanks!!

[@lifewithginab]

That's awesome! ❤ we use a lot of the same curriculums! So right now all I do for him is whatever book he is reading he does a journal entry in his journal... the journal has a place for him to put the date on top, draw a picture and he writes a couple of sentences. He usually reads a level 2 book every day. We usually do his journal about 3 x a week. Hope that helps. I will probably share more about our journal in another video ❤ my son is a definitely a reluctant writer though so I am trying to make writing fun!

[@namitarohan9341]

what does Nicholas do rest of the day after he's done with lessons/independent work before 8 am ? How can you focus on your work ? How can we ensure they don't watch TV all day or keep coming into our office because they are bored or something like that?

[@lifewithginab]

@@namitarohan9341 @namitarohan9341 my work is flexible right now... so I work mostly in the evenings... during this time when i filmed this, my husband was actually with the kids during the day, and we had various outings during the day ... and they would meet up with groups of other kids... right now, I work from home but more at the end of the day, and during the day, they play outside, explore our 40 acres, hang out with their friends who also homeschool, and live on our street... sometimes we have field trips... every day looks different... I have a 1 hour time slot for electronics, but everyone has to do what's best for them. I don't have the same job as someone else, so we adjust how we can with the resources that we have. Hope this helps!

[@SweeterAlsoThanHoney]

Your son is so cute!! I love how responsible he is getting things done on his own.

[@lifewithginab]

Thank you! ❤️ I love that he is slowly getting more independent!

[@SummerMeyers]

Look at that sweet guy helping his mama do the laundry! 🙌 Yes! Those skills are so helpful and foster independent learning even though it's not book work. Way to go, mama! 💕💕

[@lifewithginab]

Thanks Summer!! He is such a good helper ❤

[@jennifersedo]

I'm sure it's been asked before, where did you get that world map from on the wall? It looks very nice...is it wood? Thank you

[@lifewithginab]

Yes Jennifer I do get asked a lot but don't mind it all! I love our map! It's from Your World Map EU I'll get a link for you on a seperate comment. It is wooden and I have the 3D map with countries; Brown tones
