Dont forget you can loop outings too! Library, playground/park, museum/zoo/sightseeing/field trip stuff. We're gonna try looping these in the afternoons M/W/F

I love how you talked about loop scheduling! It is such a brilliant way to get "all the things done" without drowning. And there are so many creative ways to do it. 👏👏 Yes!! Learned a lot, thank you! 💕💕

[growingupbaseball]

Yep
..there are much more ways to this beautiful way of loop scheduling. It has changed our homeschooling dynamic for the better. I like the ways you shared, however we just line up the entire list of learning topics/subjects and cycle through them daily but Bible is the star that I try to keep constant (:
Happy homeschooling 🎉

Excellent explanation! We’ve used loop schedules in the past and they can definitely be so helpful!

[jennifersedo]

thank you this video was extremely helpful. Next year my daughter will be doing 2nd grade level work and I was starting to get overwhelmed with all of the subjects...and this really helped to get a visual and understanding of how a loop schedule can look like. I really appreciate it.

[foxyygirl]

Thank you so much for the helpful video!!!

[HerDailyJourney]

Love your explanation. I never really understood looping scheduling much. So helpful.

I’d love to hear how trying out the 2 weeks of looping through specific studies went for you a few years back when this video came out

We've been doing daily loop scheduling (tues art, wed science, etc) this year, but I think I am going to try weekly (or longer) loops next year. We find it challenging to get to everything every week. I think if we spend more focused time on one subject for longer periods of time, then we might get to dive deeper into the topics that we love instead of them getting skipped because we ran out of time. Thanks for the video!

[PenniesAndSalt]

I love the way you are using the loop this year!

[crystaljordan]

Great idea looping your math/reading. I have the hardest time spreading myself over the needs if my 4!

[cgt]

This was super useful and just took a huge mental load off of me...thank you!

[Dreblueskies]

Excellent video! You explained this better than anyone else 👍
Love your personality.

[jenniferosoriojimenez]

I love this explanation! Thank you for sharing!

Last year I looped catechism and art. This year I'm adding nature study and music and we've been doing Spanish this summer. I haven't 100% figured out my schedule but there will definitely be looking going on!

[fearlesslyloved]

This was so informative as I was interested in hearing more about looping! We use Right Start Math too! Thank you so much! You're rockin it too, mama! 💥

Hi! I am a new subbie. We will be doing loop scheduling for my 5K kiddo this year. I set up 2 loops, STEAM and ELA. The plan is to work no more than 30 minutes in each loop. Science will be first semester, history will be second semester, art once a week.

[alexnoelle]

I know this is an older video, so you may not see this comment, but I’m curious how you write your loop subjects down in your log? Do you label it “loop subject” and write whatever they did that day? Trying to figure out how I want to organize it in the upcoming school year as I will be trying out looping for the first time! But it’s difficult as someone who is super particular about how I write things down 😆

[hstewart]

Question- how do you complete a curriculum in a school year if you are only doing it once a week?

[kj]

Don't do a foreign language as a chunk of a few weeks in a term. You will lose too much between times.
