Guest hollow has “chemistry in the kitchen” which sounds exactly like what you’re looking for!

All of your content is always such an amazing 🤗💕 TY so much for taking the time to

JacKris publishing has a good writing series for grades 1-8. It's a very good approach in my opinion. It's called Winning With Writing. They also have Growing With Grammar and Soaring With Spelling. The lessons are short and clearly presented.

We love The Kitchen Pantry Scientist by Liz Lee Heinecke. Each topic covers the scientist who invented thr scientific theory/topic, had a brief intro to the subject and then follows with an experiment. Some of the chapters include, carbonation, oxidation, extraction, evaporation, surface tension, pH scale etc. Some of the scientists covered: Galen, Alessandro Volta, Marie Curie, Dmitri Mendeleev and many others. There are a total of 25 labs so it'll cover a good portion of the year well. Highly recommended!

Im not 100% sure if mine is dyslexic but its on are radar so glad I found your channel. My kids have the same interest, I'll be looking these resources up, thanks😊

I have both Dyslexia and Dyscalculia. I love math, but just do it. I love your approach to teaching math.

Another great kitchen based chemistry to look into is Ellen McHenry’s Dissect Your Dinner. There are sample chapters on her website at Ellen McHenry’s Basement Workshop. It’s a short curriculum, I’m planning to use it before we dive deeper into Guest Hollow’s Chemistry in the Kitchen.

Could you do another video on how to actually help these kiddos with dyslexia, dysgraphia again? What are realistic expectations? What can we expect in middle school and high school writing? What will we actually be able to over come and what is just a deficit and needs to be accepted and accomodated/adapted accordingly? This is a struggle for sure!

Another great resource we love to connect with chemistry or elemental science is the book "The Story of Salt" for kids. The author has an adult and kids version of the book with the latter having engaging pictures and lots of SS/Geog and History references that can be correlated with science.

A fantastic read aloud book to go along with your bird study is the T.Burgess Bird Book. It's such a sweet story, but also very educational.

Thanks for sharing what your son will be using this upcoming year! I always get such great ideas from watching videoa like this.

I agree with you on public schools pushing writing too early, so I held back on independent writing projects this year also. My son is also 5th grade-ish with dyslexia.
I'm interested to see how you incorporate the Outlining Made Simple book. That may be something I'll pick up and try as well.

Oh, and I have another suggestion. You mentioned wanting to have your son go and shop Home Depot/Lowes for material and do projects. I just got an amazing book called Wood Shop by Margaret Larson. It starts out teaching basics like safety, how to use tools, and setting up a workshop. It takes the student from making a tool caddy, a peg board tool organizer and a work bench, to building fun projects like stilts, bird houses, clocks and wooden games.
Honestly, I'm really excited to do a Wood Shop class with my son, probably more than my husband is, lol.😅

I speak from experience...*ALWAYS* read through books on puberty before giving them to children/teens!! Some seem innocent until you actually look...

I have a couple of questions- first how did you get your guy assessed for dyslexia/ dyscalcula when he is homeschooled? I have a fifth grade boy and he’s reading fairly well but handwriting has always been such a struggle and writing is like pulling teeth. He struggles with memorizing the times tables but understands the concept as well. I’ve considered dysgraphia but he’s come a long way and I kind of brushed it off, I have no idea how to have him assessed since we homeschool and don’t really want to involve the local public school. Also how do you time this schedule out? It looks amazing but I have one and still feel like I would struggle to fit all of this in, I am a night shift nurse and work part time and make it work we get through his work every week but I would love to see how you organize all of this! Thank you for sharing 😊

My daughter has dyslexia and we loved the books from the good and the beautiful level 3 LA just the books though cause they were parent/student readers. She also loves the galaxy zac series

[fabbailey]

Thank you for explaining dyscalculia, my 6th grader may have this learning “glitch”. I use the word “glitch” because I it just a “glitch” and can be fixed 😊 with prayer and the right tools!

Anywho we are learning about Birds as well!

Can we get a look inside of the Outline book and how you set up the Unit Studies?

Thanks for sharing ❤.

[ctaylor]

Yes. They do push writing way too early in public schools. My son was dictating in first grade.He definitely was not ready. That's one of the many reasons I pulled him out of public school. I started with Writing with ease level one. He is on level two going into the fourth grade but I have seen growth.

[kathrynhanson]

Writing was a struggle for my guys as well game changer in our family Writing Rhetoric. Went from 😢to can we do this first. Start from book 1 and go from there. I used this also for my High Schoolers as well. Thank you for sharing.

Great video. Thank you for sharing. Where did you get the book studies? Other books for the medieval time period are King Arthur and His Knights, The Falcon of Eric the Red, A Single Shard, Books 1, 3, & 4 of the Imagination Station Series, Viking Adventure, Adam of the Road, and there is also a Viking Quest Series (but that series might be for middle school age).
