Thank you for sharing the history curriculum. As a homeschool mom of a 10 and 12 year old, I was seeking a curriculum with diverse viewpoints.

Thank you for reviewing this. It was such a helpful review because you had used the planner before and could explain how you used it while showing the blank pages. I just purchased this and am hopeful it will help me map everything out so I can fulfill all my roles with more clarity and less stress. I think I'll be putting don't eat chips on the don't do list every week! LOL

Thanks so much for sharing! What an inspiration! I hope you continue to feel better.

Have you tried a detox program with raw foods and water for a month to see if it makes a difference with your health issues.

Praying for divine healing for you! It's so comforting to know that God goes before us in all things! I've been homeschooling mine since 1st grade too :) I've got a freshman and junior this year.

It's so nice to see you back! 🧡

What type of learning center do your boys go to? I don’t think I’ve heard of anything like that around us. It sounds really good for science especially. And electives. My daughter is in 7th.

So nice seeing you again. Thank you for taking the energy and time to share . You know I know how hard it is 🫶🏽

Hi Sabrina! It’s good to see you back. I too have been struggling with brain fog (ME/CFS here), and have had to make a lot of changes this year. It can be so challenging to meet the needs as a mom, housewife and homeschool teacher with health issues. I pray for your recovery. I’m happy to hear your year is going well despite the clouds. 🤍

It sounds like your guys are having an amazing year regardless of all the obstacles! Your local 4-H and resource centers sound so great! I wish we had local options like that! We started the year with a mish-mash of various curriculums, 3 months later I finally bit the bullet and ordered Oak Meadow for both of my boys and it has been so great for all of us.

Have you had to switch up anything this semester?

Sending heartfelt prayers for your complete healing and hoping you start feeling better very soon. I truly appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts, and I genuinely enjoy your content and the curriculum recommendations you provide. Thank you!

Hi do u mind telling me the standards for 8th grade? Like what we learn in each subject? 😅

This whole reel is excellently done, but my biggest takeaway was how smart it is to have a basket by the door for deliveries!

How did the Fivestar 3 subject notebooks work for Oak Meadow? I bought a notebook for each subject and then a large spiral bound art book as their MLB but I would love to minimize the notebooks😂

Ohhh Mansa Musa! I like that addition

I hit that thumbs up icon on your video. Can't wait see more creations from you. Splendid video, The Simple Happy Life. Persist in the high-quality work.

What do you use for coding?

Hi there! Do you have a completed example of how you put together their MLBs?

Hi! Can you share a link to your rolling cart(s)? Thanks so much! -Amanda E.

We were using my math assistant for Saxon. It has the teaching and answer check, but it also has a customized practice that works on their problem areas. I thought this was great.

We love Oak Meadiw and used it for a number of years. Now we are full Waldorf. In Oak Meadow they are not supposed to do ALL assignments. They are supposed to pick from the assignments listed each week.

Hi. I've been watching your other videos and noticed you've been utilizing these carts for a few years. Have you noticed any sagging/bowing in the shelves of the cart. I believe the weight limit for each is 11 lbs. I just love how much material you can store on the top shelf! Thanks

I love all these options! That local homeschool store looks heavenly! I will have a 5th grader this coming year so looking a little ahead is fun. Your videos are so relaxing and calming hahaha! I haven't heard of some of these curriculums so im going to check them out for myself because I love to "broaden my horizon" so to speak! Thank you!

I just found your channel and have watched at least 15 of your videos. I school very similar to you and I have really found so many things through watching you! My daughter is only going into 3rd, but I'm super interested in oak in meadow for later years. I think you mentioned brave writer also, how do you like O&M compared to brave writer?? I was planning to use B.W. but now I'm torn between the two.

You are such an inspiration! Thank you for sharing.

Great video editing, thanks for sharing the museum. Book store looks awesome.

New subscriber. Man i wish we had a local homeschool store!

Praying you all have a great upcoming year!!

Pepper and Pine has a great mental math curriculum for 3-5 and 4-8 it’s amazing!!

my oldest has been trying to make his own board game and wants to learn coding so we will be doing those for some of his electives this year. we are not a sports family but im so happy when other homeschool families can still do sports because i know sometimes its hard to find teams. thanks for showing the oakmeadow its looks really interesting.

We are going into our 2nd year using Saxon, also using Alg 1/2. We utilize My Math Assistant for grading and Nicole the Math Lady for the videos for one of my kiddos.

I clicked on this vid so fast and liked the video. Not even a minute in. ✨🫶🏾

We are on the same brain wave for our son’s 6th grade school year…we are focusing on a lot of what you are. We are continuing on with write shop Jr and trying Beuwolf grammar, and adding on some of the Critical thinking Co books to help werd he’s struggling in LA. We are also doing Ancient civilization, but with Curiosity Chronicles , our science is from Guest hollow but focused on health/human anatomy. We are also doing Guest hollows geography course so I can try to start painting a big picture of global society as a whole

My son is going into 6th and refuses to try any other math but Saxon!! He loves it and we are on year 3 of using it. Nicole is awesome! I only pay for video lessons and grading and it’s worked out great…so save your extra $20 🥰

I hope sharing our resources is helpful to you. It's never meant to be overwhelming! If you are interested in any of the resources shared in this video, make sure to check the description. I've tried to link as many as I could, but feel free to ask in the comments below!

This is amazing! I’m starting next year with OM with my 7th grader and we are only an hour from Williamsburg so I can’t wait to incorporate this! Do you feel like the Language Arts and History go so closely together that you can’t do one without the other? I had other plans for History so was going to do OM just for Language Arts this year just to try it out; but do I need to purchase the History too?

History is amazing as a homeschooler.

Okay wait I just saw your lasted video with a book haul yay going to watch now!

What do you keep in your book basket? I love 2nd and Charles ❤

I love this! And the song! Love the history here where we live is similar!

Thank you so much for sharing❤ I need to plan a field trip to visit the museum. We would probably have to stay a few days to make sure we get to see everything.

Oh my heavens. I live in Yorktown & have never been to any of these places! So inspiring. Heading to 2nd & Charles TODAY.

Thank you for sharing. Very nice

Thank you for sharing! What a beautiful experience!! Your son did a great job editing.

I watched this video twice lol😂 Really enjoyed it!🥰 keep us updated on the new books!

I’ve only used Saxon Math in our homeschool. Nicole the Math Lady is definitely helpful especially being a working homeschool mom. One less subject I have to teach.

Love your setup!

Hugely helpful!

I went and checked out Not Consumed. Thank you so much for the $5 off coupon!! I ended up purchasing In the Garden, the Old Testament Bible study, and then Uncovering Mercies at the Manger. Very excited for these to come in the mail & see how these Bible studies impact our family devotional time. Thank you again for the $5 off coupon link 😊
