HOW I DO HOMESCHOOL? READING||ASSIGNED READING+KEEPING TRACK ETC.

[@lilysantana4869]

I would definitely love to see a more in depth discussion on how you fostered a love of reading in your kiddos ! Great video, thank you

[@homewithtaylor]

Yes, please share how you fostered a love of reading with your kids! I have a 2-year-old and a 4-month-old, so I'm definitely wanting to make sure I'm getting on the right track. 😊

[@diaryofahomeschoolmama9191]

Yes this!! My youngest son is 10 and he always complains about reading. Would love to know this!!

[@brandi8040]

Read to them!

[@AM-td2mh]

Can you share the book list you mentioned you want your children to read prior to graduation? Thank you so much.

[@alindsay7365]

I would love to hear what your required classics are for your kids. I love getting ideas from other moms ❤️

[@megangarlock9674]

Yes!!

[@GraceandGrit]

Many of them are linked on my amazon page as well as on my website. The links to both are in the description.

[@brittanybeacham5143]

I like how you hold a good balance of having oversight and guiding what they read while also giving them choices and freedom within that. That's definitely something I want to learn from and implement as my girls get older.

[@thisrothtribe3780]

I have 10 children, 14 down to 1 and my oldest 5 are now AVID readers! I can’t screen everything they read in advance, so we discuss their fun books as they’re reading them and they know to come to me with anything questionable! Passing the books we read aloud around for each to take turns reading is a MEGA blessing here!!!

[@steffa648]

Yes please!!!! I’d love to hear how your kids grew to love reading.

[@jerilyn-ourhomeschooltable]

One way that I think helps develop kids that love to read, is seeing their mom and dad reading. ❤️

[@lifewithginab]

Thanks for sharing! I agree, it's so nice that the good and the beautiful has the screened book list ... has helped me so much!

[@VoodooCrab]

Oh I agree! My twin girls are 19, and we continue to read books out loud. We all absolutely love sharing that time together.

[@karin4993]

Thank you for sharing! Yes, please do another reading video!

[@meganpaparatti3452]

I would love to know how you developed a love for reading in each of your children. Please make a video about this ❤

[@diaryofahomeschoolmama9191]

Never giving up read alouds either! We read 2 read alouds as well- we do sonlight or bookshark for history and we'll read that read aloud and then one that is not related to history whether that's a missionary story or a fun book that's part of a series.

[@sarahs458]

Thanks so much for this series! I'm interested in personal quiet times for your kids and favorite Bibles (for you and for your kids). Also, favorite mom encouragement books you recommend.

[@gabrielledrummond]

This was so helpful! I just ordered a ton of different books off of TGATB library. Thank you!

[@diaryofahomeschoolmama9191]

This is what we do as well- we use TGTB for language arts so they do the reader from TGTB along with another chapter book.

[@laurenreichow5427]

I absolutely love this!! Yes, video on how to encourage reading!

[@LearLearningAcademy]

Please share how you fostered a love for reading!

[@LearLearningAcademy]

I wanted to add, I was never a reader until I had a college, yes college, teacher did a read aloud at the end of every class! I had never had that kind of experience that I could remember. I haven’t stopped reading since. I did want to ask, did you do a reading log for preschool/kindergarten/1st? We read all day, randomly, and I feel it would be daunting to try to write all the books that I read for my littles. They are 5, 3 and 1. If so, any help on how would be greatly appreciated!

[@ellierose1379]

Thank you for this video! So excited for your book lists on your website 👏🏼

[@alysiawilson6876]

Love doing read alouds also!

[@maeb7723]

Please do a video of how you've fostered a love of reading! Mine are much younger than your kids and I would love to hear your insight on this!

[@melissa.hadley.fitwithMS]

Sounds like a great membership video; how you fostered the love of reading

[@katelyse]

Love this video! I tweaked your idea of a reading log and made a checklist of all the books I want them to read for the school year (basically whatever’s on their level). Then they check off the title as they read it and get another off the list for the next book. Helps me with the decision fatigue of “What do I need to read next, Mom?” 🤪

[@GraceandGrit]

Love that

[@jessicalantz4428]

I did this as well!

[@HollyRCB247]

Yes, I would like to know how you encouraged your kids to love reading? Do you have any kids with dyslexia?

[@GraceandGrit]

No children with dyslexia.

[@valeriesearles3000]

Great video. Thanks for sharing. And yes to the follow up video you mentioned!! 🙂

[@BaudelaireOrphan1]

I just started answers Bible curriculum and even that is kinda in depth, and length for my girls but they are very young 4/5 years

[@VineandBranches723]

Love this video...thank you for sharing!

[@tonyamoore1985]

I love to read books to

[@krystalgardner1109]

I screen my kids books the same way.

[@chaseholcomb8840]

What exactly are you “screening” the books for?

[@heatherr8696]

How do you motivate yourself on days where you just don’t feel like it? 😬

[@mrs.jaywojo5426]

Do you mean homeschooling? I find that when I am prepared with a plan for the next day, it helps with execution.

[@tonjaduncan0315]

How do your high schoolers take notes in homeschool?

[@GraceandGrit]

When they watch video lectures

[@tonjaduncan0315]

Would you be willing to do a video on how they take the notes? Show on paper what they write? I believe there’s an art to it that I never learned.

[@GracefullyUnraveled]

Is that your Eby tank top or is that a different one? I’d love to hear how you fostered a love for reading in your children.

[@GraceandGrit]

Different one here ❤️ pink lily

[@jamiepayan1824]

how/when do you teach computers for a high school elective?

[@Love_431]

Hey Ashlee ! I just came across your channel! I’m looking into homeschooling my children ages 10 & 7 . We are here in Vegas and let’s just say I’m a bit overwhelmed . Would you be able to provide any private personal guidance?

[@CH-yk1op]

I am having trouble finding the book lists of what you read each year on the blog. I see the ‘books, books, books’ lists & others but not a yearly record of what they read. Is that on there? If so, and you have time, could you add a link to those please? Thank you!

[@GraceandGrit]

I don’t have set lists. Just a huge compilation of what we’ve loved through the years

[@Teacupgirly]

What kind of books do you not allow? What exactly do you look for?

[@GraceandGrit]

Anything violent outside true war stories Anything overtly sexual Anything that shows disrespect to parents Anything that has romantic relationships (for my younger kids) Anything that has gender/sexual ideology outside of Gods design.

[@Teacupgirly]

@@GraceandGrit Thank you! I am a mom of toddlers so we haven’t been exposed to much of these, except for the last point. Lots of that in baby/toddler books recently 😖

[@threearrows6906]

Do you use an audiobook subscription?

[@GraceandGrit]

No
