She has read Where the Red Fern Grows & The Outsiders.. such a good one. She’s familiar with the symbolisms in Lion Witch and the Wardrobe, we did a light study on C S Lewis and the creation of Narnia. I’m hoping to do a deeper study and writing assignments on it though. I think there is a lot to take away from it at every age. I don’t think I’ve heard of That was then, This is now, Tex series.. I’ll have to look into that.

@ good news! Read this after my second recommendation of that novel. If your daughter has read The Outsiders, then definitely follow up with That Was Then, This Is Now and Tex. Those are the next S.E. Hinton novels. Tex is fantastic. Then you could even try Rumble Fish-that book is easy to read but it is really difficult to determine what Hinton is getting at. Obviously, the fish are being used as symbols. Every kid I know loved reading Touching Spirit Bear.

@@christinacascadilla4473 She loved the adventures of Huckleberry Finn and Little Women, she liked the adapted version of Oliver Twist so she’s starting the full version soon, she’s currently reading Wings of Fire and Hunger Games. We have a video up of some of the books she’s been going through including chapter books, short stories, and graphic novels. 😊

@ well, if your daughter made it through the real version of Huck Finn, and not some adapted version, she’s way ahead of the typical seventh grader because the dialect in that book makes it a difficult read and it’s more like an 11th grade novel.

She likes to read, she typically will read a few chapters and then talk to me and process what she read, what she thinks about what’s happening, what she thinks the author is saying, and asks questions on words or concepts she doesn’t understand. I’m trying to make critical thinking and analyzing a natural thing for them when they consume information.

@@RootedandResilientHomeschool I left another comment on the video where your daughter shows off all her books. As I said there, I highly recommend Where the Red Fern Grows for that seventh grade age. Make sure your daughter knows and can recognize the author’s use of literary devices. And I could tell that you are doing an excellent job raising your daughter and that she will grow up to be a good person. Also realize that once she hits what would be 9th grade, teaching her math and science is going to get a whole lot harder than what you are doing now.

Yes! It’s really eye opening and encouraging to know and teach that to my kids at an earlier age.

Yes spiral learning. I enjoy spiral learning sometimes but my daughter has a difficult time with too many concepts too fast in math. We’re probably going to have to take a break in space again too for the same reason you said. It gets tiring after a while so splitting it up is probably a good idea. I do try to add longer breaks between going back to the space books sometimes to help. I don’t want them to be in a place where they start to hate it. I love book videos too, I find so many new books to put on my list for my kids and for me 🩷

When you homeschool you are Mom, principal, guidance counselor, nurse, and problem-resolutions-specialist 😅

What was her TH-cam channel. My daughter has been into Minecraft lately.

@Brewerhomeschool the channel she created is called @EuryPlayz, it’s a pink profile picture. She hasn’t uploaded any gaming videos yet. She’s exciting to start though! Is your daughter on the creative side too? I’ve seen some Minecraft civil engineering classes before, they look really neat 🙂

Thanks for the suggestions! Bear Grylls is on our reading list, we love watching his series! I’ve never heard of Ranger in time, I’ll have to look into that! Thanks ☺️

Thanks!

Linked it in the description! I meant to go back to do that earlier, thanks for that reminder! ☺️

Hi Welcome! It’s such a neat system, are your children in their elementary years? I’m hoping it keeps working well for my daughter so she can start working on ACT prep when she needs to, but I think so far so good. You’ll have to keep me updated!

@ My youngest 2 are in 5th and 6th grade.

Oh those are good grades! I feel like around 5th & 6th grade is when you can really start getting more into the meat of subjects ya know?

💕

Thanks for sharing 😊

Thank You! ☺️

God Always First 👆

Hope you have a Merry Christmas🎄

Thank you so much!! Yes the student planners are so nicely done, I love all the spaces for kids to be intentional in goals. My daughter immediately jumped right to it!! ☺️

It’s been working so well for us so far! My daughters confidence and comprehension have been improving so much ☺️

Hi! The Planets a journey through the solar system by Giles Sparrow, Apologia Exploring Creation with Astronomy, and Space Discover the Universe by Miles Kelly. Hope that helps! ☺️

@RootedandResilientHomeschool Thank you so much!!!

I’ll be uploading a video this week on all the books and resources we use for astronomy 🪐 Have a great rest of your day 😊

@@RootedandResilientHomeschool I will be tuning in for sure- enjoy your evening 😊 thanks!

We use CLE for math and reading. My daughter loves the reader and the spiral approach they use for math.

It’s actually a TH-cam video trend

Glad to have you here!

Hi @schultesweeties welcome! I just subscribed to your channel and checked it out, I love learning how other homeschool families do things in their home & seeing their curriculum picks. So happy to have you here ☺️

Agreed! I love seeing and hearing what other homeschool families do 😊

Thank you ☺️
