WORLD STUDIES 🌍 || HOMESCHOOLING EXTRA SUBJECTS || BIG CHANGES! ||

- This has been a long time coming. I felt like we hit a bit of a dead end with our extra subjects, science, history and geography lately and needed to make some changes. For us the changes looked like - less emphasis on published curriculums for these subjects and more emphasis on books and picture books, less emphasis on ticking boxes and more emphasis on cozying up on the sofa reading and discovering together, less emphasis on the title ‘history’ or geography’ more emphasis on studying and appreciating the beautiful world we live in..
So we are now calling it WORLD STUDIES 🌍
This is the study of all things in the world, history, bible history, geography, science, nature, you name it.

BLOSSOM SCHOOLHOUSE:
Welcome to Blossom Schoolhouse!
I’m a homeschooling mum of two girls aged 9 & 7, living in the U.K.
We have homeschooled from the very beginning and had always planned and hoped to do so before we even had our children. I hope you enjoy the videos I share and find them helpful!
I try my very best to get back to every comment and inquiry.

I have been a History professor for 25 years. The best students I had were homeschooled. They generally more prepared, more eager to learn and better adjusted. It's one of the reasons I put all my lectures on TH-cam. As a free resource to help homeschoolers.
Wow that’s incredible to hear thank you for sharing! I will definitely check out your lectures!
@@blossomschoolhouse6059 it's a pleasure to make them. Hope you find some useful lectures
@@HistoryfortheAges I can't wait to have a look, how wonderful! Thank you!
@@leanneg4040 enjoy. Please leave comments on the lectures you watch. The feedback will help me know what new content to create
@@HistoryfortheAges your channel looks fab, just had a little scan through. Do you have any videos on Black History? Would love to see some.
I love what you have done with your planning and arrangement of World Studies. As a very new home ed mother, i've been anxious to get on with maths and English, with little to no coverage of other subjects - even our bible reading has been breezed over. Your videos give me insight to how our learning could incorporate more in a fun, practical way. Yesterday i took my children to a nearby skate park during school hours, and it was empty. We now weekly visit our library; when they were registered in school i never took them. Now i love it, i have an app on my phone to manage our loans and books ordered in. Such an exciting world is opening up to me, which i hadn't anticipated, praise God for it all! Thank you Blossom Schoolhouse ❤
This video was great! It's given me some inspiration and confidence to finish planning for the future. Thanks so much! I would love to know where you got the world map from, that looks really nice :)
Thank you so much for the video! great resources. love the maps!
I haven’t even watched the video yet but I just wanted to say how excited I am you’ve done another video! I absolutely love your content I’ve even been rewatching you’re old ones hoping you’d do another 😂😊
Oh I love this 😆 thank you!! 💛💛
Well done champion mum!! Teacher, reach the early years ears ! x
I have ordered some of the books you showed us, I'm so excited to add them to our learning environment ❤ thank you for such lovely videos xx
We do school year around. Science and history is done in the summer.
Ooooh that's a great idea. Thanks for sharing. I'm going try that.
@@assaba22 Great idea! probably better suited for field trips also
I really enjoyed this video as I have been feeing the same way; I just couldn't get my head around where to start with history and geography. I have been reading a lot about Charlotte Mason and her philosophy and have come across some of the same books you shared in this video. I like the idea of having one book to record all of my daughter's learning in as it can become so overwhelming. I also love the notion of learning through stories as it's more engaging and accessible for children, and then note booking their learning is such a fun way to record it all. I really like your idea of having fun stickers of world flags, maps and landmarks, etc to add to the notebook! I will definitely be utilising this idea. Your channel is always such a help and inspiration! Thank you
Oh it’s so nice to hear you feel the same way and this video helped! It can all be so overwhelming but really and truly reading books is the way to a child’s heart isn’t it! ❤️
Such a great video, and so timely for us. I've just sort of started making up my own geography/world curriculum where we learn about each country where they hold a F1 Grand Prix, as we follow the season along.🏎 Only 2 races/countries in, but it's been great so far. Loving some of the resources you have gathered here :)
Wow I love that idea so much, how fun and creative!
@@blossomschoolhouse6059 ahh thank you 🧡 definitely learning about countries I wouldn't have thought to introduce otherwise...like Bahrain 😄
I don't separate history and social studies either. I call them "topics of interest" to learn about the world we inherited, dwell in, and will leave behind to future generations. So we read lots, ask lots of questions, and explore a lot together.
Love this!
What age/grade would you suggest for the 2 Mason Geography readers?
What are the geography readers again?
