We used that same book from Artistic Pursuits last year and we probably did a couple of lessons a month we will be finishing the book this year. My daughter loved this book. About halfway it has your student do a gallery for friends and we had a dinner one night and invited everyone over so she could show her art. It was her favorite curriculum we used last year.
We use apps as well. I’ve used crafts I’ve used as a pre school teacher and Sunday school teacher. Bible and set can go together. We teach music thru learning an instrument as I’m a guitarist and pianist. We often listen to worship music as we do other work and other things at home. I learn to tap on a beat to learn pitch. U could talk to ur kids bout ur pappa as u teach the pipe organ.
Michelle, which curricula are you using for multicultural art and music? I've searched high and low and cannot find ANYTHING K-6 for Latin, African, Middle Eastern or Asian music history or art history. It's all classical and very Euro-centric, which is fine, but I'd like to incorporate other cultures too!
Thanks for the info! I also started last year and I have enjoyed being able to watch you go through the same steps in the homeschooling journey. Some of your kids are even the same ages as mine! I have a 3rd grader and 1st grader. As well as a 2 year old and 8mo old. I admire you sharing your journey and figuring it out!
This is so great! I have been looking for an art "curriculum" and this one looks perfect! Thanks for sharing! I am teaching my daughter piano and guitar this year, but I love the idea of a more general music lesson as well. You have great content!
One Blessed Mess I am actually kind of learning it with her! But I do already know piano and how to read music, which I think is a great foundation for other instruments!💕
Thank you so much for sharing this! This will be my first year kinda homeschooling, my kids school will have a online virtual course but they will not have a teacher or zooms or anything so I see it as basically homeschooling with online work🤷🏻♀️ idk they haven’t gave much information about so I’m gonna try it for a bit until I know what I’m doing “homeschool” wise. Also love your channel I just subscribed
I loved Reading Eggs but the kids did not 😔 We tried the 30 day free trial...I wanted them to love it as much as I did, lol. However, Starfall.com has been a winner here in our home!👏 Thanks for sharing the art and music curriculum!! I will be checking these out! ❤
@@dominique573n9 Starfall.com is free 👍 and there are a few different apps with different levels within the apps. We've been using Starfall for over a year and the kids still love it and ask for it 😁 Hope it works for you all!
Hey, Christie! I'm looking for a great art curriculum for next year, and saw your video in the suggested list! I know you filmed this in July 2020, but are you still using ARTistic Pursuits? Did it work for your family? If not, what else have you been using? I'm really looking into Atelier Art Homeschool. Just curious!
Hi Christie, my name is Amy and I am a new subscriber and a new homeschooling mom to my 3 boys. I am so excited to check out squilt and all your other resources. I can’t wait to hear your History video choice, I want to go with Notgrass with the 50 states but it doesn’t come out until August 31 but I think I might wait for it. Can’t wait to get to know you better. 😀
We love adding art and music! I love the idea of formalizing it a bit more like this too.
Yes! ❤
I would loooove to see a video on your stem bins once they’re set up. I love that idea so much
I will definitely share all about them!!
The STEM bins sound so fun! When Ashlea shares about them I thought that sounded so neat! I like the little bins you bought for them.
Yes!!! Stem bins sound like such a great way to keep their hands occupied!

That is such a great idea!! I love that!!
We used Squilt for one unit last year and really enjoyed it.
I'm so glad to hear that!
We used Reading Eggs in my classroom for years. It is an amazing program.
It really is such a neat app!!

Oh I'm so glad you shared these. I have never seen inside the art and music programs. I WANT them!
They are great!! ❤
Ooooh I wanted to fold Squilt in this year! Love that you are doing it.
It looks SO good!!
YAY! So glad to see this... I was just searching for videos on art curriculum. Thank you!
Aww good!! ❤❤
I love integrating art and music in my class. Last we did the history of Jazz and this year African art and music. Blessings sweet Friend!
That sounds amazing!! ❤❤

@@user-vg8ez9cu6u I don't use any particular curriculum. I develop my own lessons. I teach at a public school.
@@MichelleGayScienceTeacher I see. Thanks, anyway!
Reading Eggs is so fun! We used it for part of reading intervention in back when I taught public school as well.
That is so good to hear!!
Money bags is very fun! My 1st grader got the hang of counting money so quickly now!
Thanks for the flip thru on Squilt! 💛
Thank you so much for watching!

I've always uses STEM bins in my classroom. I kept them so now my homeschooler will also use them. Thanks for the app ideas.
STEM bins seem like such a great way to keep their minds working in those independent times!
I have never heard of Squilt before. I have my kids learn piano, but I do need to look at some music history.
It looks so nice and comprehensive!

That is SO cool that you're teaching your daughter guitar!! I wish I was proficient in a musical instrument like that! ❤❤

My kids love reading eggs too! I’m a momma of 5!
Aww yay!!! Nice to meet you!
Artistic Pursuits is excellent!
Oh good! It looks so comprehensive!
We are using the same art book this year! Would love to see how you do a lesson in it when school starts 😁
How awesome!! I will absolutely do that! ❤
i have been wanting to try money bags, i still have it on my save for later cart on Amazon lol. Looks very fun
Hahaha I had it in my cart for forever, too!
I actually studied music in middle and high school. It's not too difficult. Squilt looks like a great curriculum. 🥰

One Blessed Mess 😊 thank you!

My daughter tried it today and was bored , it’s super repetitive. maybe she needs to try it for longer? We may try the one you are using. Thanks!
