USING THE GOOD & BEAUTIFUL CURRICULUM IN THE U.K. || adapting American curriculum in U.K. homeschool

How we use the good and the beautiful homeschool curriculum in the U.K.
After receiving hundreds of messages from U.K. homeschoolers about how we use the good and the beautiful curriculum even though it is American I decided I should finally share how we adapt certain American concepts taught, like currency and measurements, to fit our homeschool here in the U.K.
It’s easier than you think..
I hope this video helps explain how easy it is to use ​⁠‪@TheGoodandtheBeautiful‬ curriculum even if you aren’t living in America.

BLOSSOM SCHOOLHOUSE:
Welcome to Blossom Schoolhouse!
I’m a homeschooling mum of two girls aged 10 & 8 living in the U.K.
We have homeschooled from the very beginning and had always planned and hoped to do so before we even had our children. I hope you enjoy the videos I share and find them helpful!
I try my very best to get back to every comment and inquiry.

Hiya, I love your videos! Just a video idea: could you do a video when you or your children feel unmotivated and what you would do? Or maybe do a video on arts and craft ideas and designs you have come up with, related to homeschooling or just for fun, you seem very creative. I’m a teenager myself but would love to homeschool my own children in the future 😊❤🇬🇧 have a beautiful evening

[@amykent6934]

Such a good idea. We all get like that some days. I suppose that’s why this curriculum is so good because you can just open it and follow what it says

[@leanneg4040]

Your videos are always fantastic, thank you, they've been a big part of us taking the leap into home educating. I've used a number of your links for recommended books and resources; they have always been so worth it. We're now almost a year in, we decided to use Memoria Press, therefore a similar situation with US curriculum (ie. it's really not an issue), but I love the look of The Good and the Beautiful and have a friend who uses it 🎉

[@blossomschoolhouse6059]

Oh thank you so much! That’s so encouraging for me to read. So pleased you’ve found something you like to use too and that it still works over here 👏🏼🙌🏼

[@anmichele3829]

Thank you for showing us instead of just explaining it! I had someone explain how they use curriculums but change currency and spelling but could not visualize it in my head! Seeing your examples makes things clear to me and lets me see how easy it really is!

[@blossomschoolhouse6059]

I’m so glad this helped and I totally agree, so much easier when you see it isn’t it!

[@hayleybirks5570]

We’re doing level 1 at the moment. We found mould spelt differently so far. We also use Twinkl for our maths as an easy swap. Thanks for the video.

[@blossomschoolhouse6059]

We loved level 1, so fun!

[@Rufus1531]

Hi, we have used TG&TB up to level 4 so far and have completed the money sections in the same way that you have. There are a couple of spellings in LA level 4 that I had to change, but not many. We love using TG&TB and are so greatful to have found it. Thank you for you video on it. It's such a lovely curriculum and for anyone looking, your videos explain it so well. ❤

[@blossomschoolhouse6059]

Oh I’m so glad to hear you’ve found it easy to make small changes too. That’s also so helpful to know there are a couple different spellings in the level 4. 💛

Hello and I enjoy your videos, very helpful. I'm in Australia and using TGTB for maths and language arts. I've decided to have my child know both American currency and Australian currency. So in maths we use the exercise to do both and I've added Australian play money to the maths box. With American measurements I have read it and mentioned it for awareness but will focus on the metric system mostly. In Language Arts apart from minor spelling changes we use the term "full stop" rather than "period" and "Capital Letter" along with Upper Case. But its very minor changes and find the curriculum so easy to open and go. My child loves the colourful pages and games within it.

[@blossomschoolhouse6059]

Oh I love that that’s brilliant 👏🏼 also yes great point, we use full stop instead of period too!

[@Vicki510]

We’ve just started homeschooling and doing it this way with our 3 children similar age to yours with TGTB maths too in the Uk. Your videos were so helpful in making the decision! Would love to hear more of what your plan (if you have one yet!) is for high school homeschooling in the UK? Will your girls take GCSEs?

[@blossomschoolhouse6059]

This makes me so happy. We definitely plan to continue through the high school/secondary school years too! Will do an update on that when it comes 💛

[@rachelwhite4320]

I love The Good and the Beautiful curriculum and use them with my children, for money on Amazon Humble Math do a great book that has a large money section in it and its very inexpensive :) x

[@ChahrazedLondon]

Hi I am from uk I am gonna start home schooling for my kids next September I am choosing the good and beautiful curriculum for grade 3 and 4 I am so happy with it is nice and simply to teach , so just I am asking if you know any good science , history books for this grades there will be helpful for me Thanks 😊

[@karsbreanne]

What level would you get that is equivalent to the UK year 2?

[@blossomschoolhouse6059]

Year 2 U.K. is equivalent age to grade 1 💛

[@vickimoulding5398]

Hi, please can I ask how you found ordering them over to the UK? Was it super expensive with shipping / customs? Xxx

[@blossomschoolhouse6059]

Hey, it’s so easy to have shipped and always arrives within a week! There is a shipping fee but no custom charges as it’s always labelled as educational material 💛

[@vickimoulding5398]

​@@blossomschoolhouse6059oh okay that's amazing to know because I always wondered! Thank you! X

[@elenahajda9291]

I'm in Canada and custom was insane for goodandbeautiful $70 Cad

[@blossomschoolhouse6059]

@@elenahajda9291 that is so much isn’t it. They do offer so many of their resources as pdfs to be downloaded and printed at home which is a great option if the shipping is too much 💛
