I appreciate how relaxed this is. I find that so many "family subject' videos or people's schedules can be very intense and structured. I thrive best as a teacher with structure and goals but flexibility.

You’re so enjoyable and easy to listen to! Thank you for all the great shares!

Yay! I'm the first comment...haha. I need to get the hymn study book, it has been on my wish list for two years. My kids are older and their schedules are different so our family subjects are very few. For next year, we will do read aloud, World Watch News, Bible and game school everyday together. We do history together but separate. We use Bibloplan which is a God send curriculum. So my kids study the same time period but different ways. This year we are covering the Middles Ages, my 6th grader is using SOTW and my 8th grader is using Mystery of History as a spine. Together we will watch Time for Art and do the projects. On Mondays we do all the projects and experiments for the week because I am the most refresh. For science one is using TGTB units and the other is using Science Shepherd Life Science. I loved when we did things together but I am learning to respect their request.

So many great choices. We did the picture study before and loved it!

Those resources sound great! So interested in that devotional....it sounds lovely. We just finished The Ology and would love to do this one. 🙏☺️

Absolutely love your content! Any chance you will do another series on your DIY language arts when you plan your next book?

We’re getting ready to start Berean Builders! I’d love to see how you notebook with it!!

Have you read Elizabeth George Spears’s Sign of the Beaver for a family read aloud? That fits in your time period and enjoyed by a wide range of ages! Love your choices!

Your scripture memory box is so pretty! Mine is just a plain index card box. Where did you find yours?

[HMAeagles]

What is the book you are using for hymn study? We are using picture books as well for history and science pulling from Five in a Row. I downloaded your monthly planning pages, they are helping me gear up for next year!

Do you have a link to the hymn book or prayer box? Thank you for great content.

The memory box idea, is that a simply Charlotte mason thing?

[Jessiemadanat]

wow i love the concept of American history through picture books how do i get more information?

[emilywalrath]

We’re going into year 3 of using Long Story Short.. it has taken us that long! But it’s really good. Granted, we don’t use it the entire year. We do Bible reading applicable to Christmas and Easter once we get to that part of the year.

I’m interested in some history picture books with my kindergartener! Which ones are your favorite?

Can anyone recommend a grammar curriculum that would be well suited for a child with poor working memory? She needs a lot of repetition, and something that’s straightforward and effective.
