[@amberican927]

We would all love to see a flip through of the new level K, also I'm right there with ya. I can't ever get enough of homeschool book hauls....I also have a strange obsession with workbooks. I don't know what it is, I have ALWAYS loved school supplies but there's just something about flipping through a brand new workbook!!!!! 🥴😅

[@sarahsheartshome]

i just did a flip through of the NEW level K on my channel- went live today! haha!! I LOVE flip throughs and hauls too!!

[@juliae.8237]

Thanks for the peek into different possibilities ☺️. I consider homeschool curriculum not only something I need to do, but allocate hobby money towards it because sometimes you just want it on your shelf😊.

[@sacredmommyhood]

In my 23 years of homeschooling, I have found The Fallacy Detective to be my favorite, most reliable logic resource, which we begin in the 7th grade. Prior to that, our children go through the Mark K. Schoenfield series: Playing with Logic, Discovering Logic, and Adventures with Logic. You may find that some of the arguments in Illustrated Bad Arguments are not solid examples of the fallacies they represent. You will spot those right away and can make changes. Thanks for the art History recommendation. It looks wonderful and easy to incorporate into our school year.

[@home_edventure]

Would love a video on your nature studies and supplies

[@KatieAddington]

My 11yo son, standing over my shoulder, "Mom, I need a new audiobook. Do you have any good ideas?" Angie says, "These Edge of Extinction books came very highly recommend from RAR." Me, "Why, yes sir, I do." 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻

[@rosalindreloj7928]

OH MY GOSH! Cannot believe I am just getting around to seeing this. These books are INCREDIBLE!!! WOW! Thank you for sharing!

[@amandazielinski3247]

Level K is free now too all the way through level 8! Truly amazing company.

[@jenniferfegel8665]

Yes, I would love a separate video with a Flipp through of the new G&B Level K!

[@homeschooledaroundtheworld4660]

Same here. This year I feel really good about our choices for the upcoming homeschool season.

[@lavendersbluefarm7738]

Would love to see a video on how you get through so much! So much I want to do for homeschool but between chaos from the littles and many of my children requiring one on one attention for the basics, and other mom duties, I find I always run out of time (& energy!).

[@crazychicken4063]

Same here! Except without the littles. In fact, I was just half wishing our school supplies consisted of the crayons, scissors, etc once again

[@amberinman4789]

I am so thankful for your videos as a homeschool resource! My oldest is going into first grade, and sometimes I feel a bit over my head. I would love to see a review of that Good and Beautiful Language Arts curriculum, that looks like a good resource!

[@megangoodell]

That’s it! I took the plunge and finally bought your course. Hooray!!

[@amandadeinhardt6388]

Thanks for this! I ordered the Outdoor Scientist! My little ones will love this. I also added the arguments book to the list for a bit later as mine are yery young still.

[@amberlynscow5367]

I would love to see a flip through of the new Good and Beautiful LA.

[@jessicamoran8962]

These type of videos are addictions. Love homeschool hauls. Especially with unique choices.

[@emmaphillips7063]

For your logic course for the girls you could look into getting them the novel "Sophie's world" by Jostein Gaarder. It's a philosophical novel geared towards teenager and I absolutely loved it when I was younger. I really think you would like how it approaches philosophy through storytelling.

[@zuyingovea757]

Thank you, Angela! Yes, pls do a flip-through of TG&TB new LA.

[@myhopefilleddays2923]

I love seeing your excitement about books 📚🥰

[@crystalmadsen7631]

Yes to a flip through! Thinking of switching to new language arts.

[@mswilson8888]

I love the new TGTB science format! We just started motion and simple machines and the lessons take 20 minutes as opposed to 40 minutes with me all over the place. I don't dread teaching science now. And I would love an update on the new LA. I have gotten the new LA4 and LA5 recently and have loved the formats on those. Also, the new TGTB preschool is amazing! The videos and songs are the key to it I think and it truly is the highlight of my day...highly recommend!!!

[@gardenia77]

The Cottage Press Sentence Sense book is excellent! We used it with their Bards & Poets curriculum last year and loved it. I never hear it mentioned, but it is an excellent curriculum.

[@kristenhullum841]

Yes, please! I would love to see the new LA Kindergarten curriculum from the Good and the Beautiful! I used Abeka last year for my son in Kinder, and it worked well, but we are trying some of the math and science TGTB curriculum and I would like to see if I would prefer their Kinder curriculum for my daughter next year. Love your videos! Thanks!

[@Olgaleigh]

I’m doing paleontology with my 4 year old and she’s loving it. I find this science unit very adaptable and not honestly pretty easy student note book wise.

[@NaturallyNoni]

You can definitely never have enough dinosaur books! My 2 and 4 year old boys are obsessed and will talk and read about them all day long!

[@botanicalbecca8443]

This is so timely- thank you! 🙏🏼 My husband and I are discussing putting our kids in the local public school next year, because now that we also have an infant, I am really struggling to organize, afford and utilize a curriculum for our other three kiddos. You are inspiring me to push forward and keep going! 💗

[@hanab837]

Yes! Keep going, and understand that it is 100% ok for you to do a scaled back year of schooling. Lots of time outdoors and read alouds are SO good for your kids.

[@ourcuddlycozycatholiccorne5365]

You can do it! Have a gentler year, read together, go outside, you can't get the time together back but you can make up later for any areas you went lighter on, and you will know what they are when you homeschool.

[@BaudelaireOrphan1]

You can do it! Keep those heads up. I would save some money throughout the year so that way you can set aside for curriculum ago and the beautiful is the most cost effective just go with them if not I hear people doing work books from brain quest and then things that they have laying around the house. Check out the family that learns KZbin they do stuff like that.

[@kadieschaefer2874]

Keep Going!!!! You can do it! Truly, even if you just get to Language Arts, Reading, and Math for each individual child, and then do a group history and science to keep your schedule simple! You can do it!

[@boysnmom6376]

Keep going! Also maybe check into state education scholarships. I'm from Arizona and just applied for the ESA scholarship program through the Arizona Department of Education. They give a certain amount of money per quarter to help with homeschool expenses. It's worth checking to see if your state offers something like that

[@valleytoyou7152]

Great video! I'd love to see your high school picks and a schoolroom tour ♥️

[@rebeccamoss6581]

Yes! I would love a flip through of the K level language arts!

[@rebeccaernst6634]

Yes to the flip through!

[@kamronrhodes5151]

I’m very proud that you started the homeschool haul

[@lisaredmon7454]

Yes! We would love to see a flip-through of the new TGAB K Curriculum! I am trying to make a decision to see if I should switch to the new from the old next year!

[@nicolcacola]

The new K is much more thorough!

[@katelynnmerrifield8888]

Would love the flip through! I’m considering the curriculum for the fall!

[@LillieElizabeth]

Yes to the good and beautiful curriculum video!!

[@daisymerri]

Yes I would love to see in depth flip thru of the G and B Language Arts, we use master books now but may want a change.

[@aliciapozzo9947]

thanks for sharing the art history lessons book looks amazing.

[@katherinep1010]

Yes, please do a flip through of the new G&TB!

[@elizabeths4736]

Please do a flip through for the K! I have a almost 5 yr old (8/31) and am looking for something to start with him.

[@thisrothtribe3780]

My kids LOVED the edge of extinction books. I already downloaded and started new language arts level 1 with my 7 year old and we are LOVING it. She can read through several AAR level 1 stories, but TGTB covers some LA concepts earlier than AAR, so I went with level 1 for her because I could download it free. I did NOT like their original LA for grades up to level 4 before this, so I was just teaching my kids to read with a mixture of Montessori, AAR methods, and good ole momma know-how. I’m so glad for the changes now. It’s simple enough we can add to it if we want without feeling like busy work.

[@redpixi07]

I will never not love homeschool curriculum videos! It is indeed an addiction 😂 Keep 'em coming! ❤

[@Fernie4243]

Always love books! Books, books, books. ❤❤❤

[@kellieliacopoulos8005]

HI Angela! Such a helpful video, thank you!! Your hair looks stunning! :) Take care!

[@paigedevine5586]

We can never have enough dinosaurs either !!

[@ambers4524]

TGTB has updated paleontology and are updating all units to look like that! They’ve improved the units and added the student journals! I’m going to do paleontology this year as well, first time with TGTB. We have the dinosaur answers or info book from Ken Ham, MasterBooks, already and it’s a great resource. We were just reading it tonight to find answers about when did dinosaurs go extinct?

[@jaydewilkinson9269]

I love all of the homeschool content!

[@valerieheyn1663]

An Illustrated book for bad arguments what a gem! Getting that one

[@KristenPeachy]

Yes, please do a flip through of TGTB language arts!

[@tiffanynipp4992]

The money matter for Teen book was a good idea but the assignments in there are off the wall. We didn’t enjoy it near as much as we hoped we would. The little lessons are fun though. They don’t necessarily dive into one particular thing too deeply but it gives a good “overall” explanation to banking and debt. The activities tho were just too out there for us. Example: one activity for the lesson was (paraphrasing) “take your parents credit card and give yourself a budget to go buy something and you have to pay it back before interest happens” and “tell your parents you will do the budget and the bills for 1 whole week without their help”. Just some really weird assignments. But we made modifications to them and made it work. I’m sure you will too 🙃 But it certainly wasn’t our favorite.

[@ashleyt6237]

Yes a flip through of the language arts please!

[@krystlehammond1447]

We have the paleontology study also from TGTB and there science units are all switching to that new format. I'm so happy!

[@rebeccaernst6634]

What's different about their new format may I ask? Other than being spiral bound lol. I tried one of the science units a couple of years ago and found all of the extras too much for us. So please tell me that is what changed haha.

[@krystlehammond1447]

@@rebeccaernst6634 so the format is similar but having the student pages already separated and put together is a major time saver for me. They have a flip through on their page! I've tried alot of science over the last 9 years and this one has the least amount of extras at least for our family, I just drop anything that I don't want too lol

[@JennCG]

Love your energy and fun personality. Your children are very lucky to have you ❤️. Can you explain how to do nature studies? I always hear about them on the homeschool channels but don’t know exactly how to go about doing it?

[@home_edventure]

Love a book haul! Yes

[@Vanessa-np4pr]

A flip through would be great!

[@morgansmolinski]

We’ve been really enjoying TGATB new preschool and Kindergarten

[@JASerickson]

Lady, you are dangerous! I should know to get ready to spend money when I watch one of your homeschool hauls! Some of those books look like treasures that we NEED! Thank you for sharing! 😁

[@cortneynichols8537]

I totally agree about the book obsession. We don't homeschool but I watch hauls and buy books like I do!! Nature is my biggest weakness. You should check out Sharing Nature with Children. (Unless I heard about it from you...).

[@hanab837]

Oh, my goodness, I want it all! 😂

[@joannafoster3423]

I've done the Money Matters book with a few of my kids. It's good, however getting outdated. How many checks get written anymore? When was the last time you bought a cassette player? So this year we switched to Dave Ramsey's homeschool curriculum for teens. Very good!

[@traciecarlson4706]

I would love to see more on the language arts book.

[@millsr1024]

You're a super mom!! I just gave birth to my first baby and you're such an inspiration for me!

[@_blue_food_1019]

Congrats!

[@walkinfaithnotbysight]

Please do a video of all the apps your guys utilize! We don't do screen time, but I'm getting interested in possibly dipping my toe with moderation.

[@gret1234]

Would love to see the new TGTB level K flip through!

[@thegreengrove]

I joined your FB group - it’s just pending approval. Can’t wait! 🙂

You are so enlightened and enlightening. It’s delicious

[@karbear26]

Have your boys read the I survived books? They’re historically based you could expand on them really easily! I’m a big sucker for books and have way too many of them!

Please do the Level K G&B flip through 😊😊

The first edge of extinction book is on scrib'd too as audiobooks. For those of you who are like me, introverted ;) You're welcome.

[@samsonchen2114]

Thanks for sharing! I love your homeschooling videos. ~Karen

[@Anikkiluv]

I have some questions on starting homeschool. We have 2 girls, one going into seventh and once going into first. We’ve talked about homeschool off and on for years, our 6 year old is a super social human. What do you do in those instances? Also, any suggestions on dipping your toes in before you jump in the deep end?

[@MomOfSeven123]

Pre-read that fallacy book. The reviews of it show some pretty big concerns.

[@alongthenarrowroad8854]

It’s a sickness but I love it. 😂😂 it’s true.

[@emmanuelmacedo1095]

Hi Angela, first and foremost, thank you for all of your videos. You do amazing work and it goes much appreciated. I have a quick question: my son is 2 and a half and I am 95% sure we will homeschool (gotta leave room). I am very interested in your 6 week course. However, I was hoping you could help me get a better grasp for when your course would be more appropriate? Should I wait until he is closer to 4? Is it never too early to start? I am new to homeschooling, first child, first home school.. and I am sorry if I missed an explanation for this kind of question here or elsewhere. I hope my question makes sense. I appreciate any and all advice! Many thanks if you took the time to read and respond.

[@machaelaailene]

What exactly is a morning basket? And what does it include?

[@irism4101]

What do you do or how do you teach subjects you don’t necessarily agree with? For example: evolution, what if you don’t believe in the evolution theory but your child still needs to know it, how do you handle that?

[@courtneymonroe1210]

How do you get that beautiful summer glow, you always have?

[@traceypowell5999]

What curriculum do you use for ELA and Math? This will be my first year homeschooling my two boys, 3rd and 4th grade.

[@ambers4524]

All about reading for phonics, if anyone needs reading instruction. Language arts BJU press for a more traditional feel and teachers manual. I’m gonna try Essentials in Writing, video lessons this year with my 5th grader. They need more in-depth instruction with writing. I used language lessons for a living education with my no attention span child, it’s worked well for them so far…though I don’t recc LLFALE for reading instruction. I’ve used ABeka but it is advanced, so do a good assessment of where your child is before choosing the grades they offer. Math Apologia Math is good, mastery based. I like math lessons for a living education to an extent, worked with my kid who wasn’t good at math. However, I’m going to try Learn Math Fast - book 1, this year with my 1st, 3rd and 5th graders to solidify basic facts before moving them all up to grade level curriculum. I’ve used and like ABeka math for grades K & 1, again advanced and I don’t like their teachers manuals. I Used Apologia math 2 and it was okay, my child got bored with it, but prob bc it’s mastery. Overall, it is good. Hands-on, game and manipulative based and 4 days a week! But they only have through grade 4 avail this year. I’ve heard good things about BJU press math (again test them bc their levels are advanced).

[@Lesh004]

I’d absolutely love a in depth flip through for K level. I have a 3 yr old starting preschool this year. And I need to be prepared for homeschooling in case we can’t do Christian schooling.
