Great video Amy. Oh how i enjoyed homeschooling my children. One has a 3.8gpa in 3rd year of college, the other became a locksmith. I am so very proud of both of them.
Love this
I taught my four children how to be poor, i mean how to budget, how to make food that last, cleaning, washing, cooking, how to reuse what they have, creative decorating and thing's like that. My reason for this is because no one teaches you how to be poor, it's all about making money. I'm not poor but i live like i'am as simplifying your life mean's you'll never go without. Everyone can get by with money but no one think's about what happen's if you loose a job or the money you're use to having.
I agree...real life preparing is more important than many things they teach
@@amymaryon I believe no one need's to learn how to be rich but you do need to learn how to be poor. I also believe a child will excel in the subject's that are needed for their future. Life has away of working out just as it should do. We should work to live not live to work.
@@sarahmurray523 That was beautifully stated.
I love this! I never thought about this. Thank you for sharing. ❤
We've been homeschooling for about 3 years. "Unschooling" gets a bad rep because outsiders think you're doing nothing to educate your children. But they absorb everything around them. Nature walks are our favorite! School does not need to be 8 hours in a desk.
Yes, but it needs to be more than just nature walks...
@@lsun5322 Well, if it's a child under age 6 nature walks would be enough. The great thing about homeschool is that the parent decides the curriculum. Even at age 16, the entire school day could be done outdoors.
Yes! ❤
This is, by far, one of the best homeschooling videos I have seen. Thank you 😊
Welcome
Agree!!!! I am tired of how to homeschool your mini-genius type homeschooling advice and it is all that I seem to hear, all I have heard for the 12 years I have been homeschooling. I find it makes me feel like the world's biggest failure for my 6 kids, ages 10-17. I have average kids that will probably all be essential workers one day. I know after this last year plus of covid insanity, I feel so discombobulated with both our schooling and the future. So this video is being bookmarked; it is exactly what I need to hear at this time of my life.
First year pandemic homeschooler of a 7th and 4th grader. I really needed to hear this today. Thank you!
Welcome
Such an encouraging video. Thank you for taking the time to share.
Thanks for watching
Yes, when we started homeschooling all three kids I struggled because we went from states with little requirements to New York that had a whole lot of thing you had to submit through the year. (Military family here lol)
It took me a bit but I realized that they are getting in sooo much more then I could even fathom. Now I can do all the reports and I don't stress about whether or not I have done the requirements.
Thanks for taking the time to do this video, it was very encouraging.
Thanks for sharing
This was so encouraging and it’s something I needed to hear as a newer homeschool mom. My twins would be starting school this fall and we decided to homeschool!
I'm glad..relax and enjoy
The thought of deschooling was soooooo hard for me to grasp in the beginning, especially since my state requires 180 days of teaching at least ELA & math and 90 each of social studies and science. It took me awhile to understand that those subjects are covered in things we do in everyday life. Baking is chemistry. Bible study/church is ancient history. Pizza can be a fractions lesson. Taking a walk can be a nature study. Even most video games he enjoyed involved math and problem solving. So, we deschooled for 6 months. And let me tell you, it made such a difference in our family!!!
Yes ! Thank you for confirming 🙂. A different mindset
This resonated me with so much. I love it! The realization of this really hit me when I went to college. I was homeschooled all the way through, and did very basic grammar in early elementary, but no more than that. When I entered college, I took a grammar class. I had no idea how to diagram sentences, and didn’t know what a predicate or conjunction was. I passed the class with high marks and found it SO easy. Why? Because I read a LOT growing up, and I was 18 years old. It comes so much easier when you’re older, and after spending hours in books!
I recently ditched my oldest son’s grammar book for this reason. He was almost in tears trying to diagram a sentence (in grade 4), and I said forget about that! I would rather him read...he’ll learn to diagram sentences in a few years 😊 There’s no reason to push it!
Thanks for sharing
So good! My mom and I have switched our kids this last year to your curriculum and it has been so helpful. I've loved your advice and reminder that it doesn't have to look like public school. It is repatition and kids learn well by repatition rather then not learning it in public school, because they mention it once. I didn't learn history or geography until I started homeschooling my children
I wish I had seen this video about 22 years ago. It took me about 5 years of homeschooling and finding the right mentor before I figured out that it was okay to relax and okay to take control of our own curriculum. We have such a structured mind set when we are selves were not homeschooled. But once we figured it out we actually had alot of fun together. My youngest will be graduating this year. Wow! We did it!
Thank you!
Even prior to this video your Outlook has allowed me to see a different view to my children's schooling. ❤️
Same here. After I discovered Amy's channel, I've become a much more relaxed homeschooling Mom.
I'm so glad
Oh thank you!!! I want to just absorb this whole attitude!!!! I will be re-watching this over and over to shift my mindset!!! Thank you ❤️
Have an awesome day
I love this!!! Thank you!!
Thank you so much for making this video. I am going to watch over and over instill I get it in my head. ♥️
I really needed this today, thank you
Welcome :)
Totally agree! Momma of 8 here, and this is how we do it. Thanks for sharing!!
Great video and some really helpful tips! I hope you have an amazing day.
Right on! I absolutely agree with you!! We unschool and even still our little girls all are several grades above their ages. I am so thankful to be able to school our girls how we see fit.
Didn’t realize we were unschooling! LOL!!! Thank you for the idea of setting certain things to do before screen time! Going to get on that after school today!
Thank you as parents we worry if we're doing what's right. Very encouraging, and comforting.
Thank you so much for this !
Hallelujah. My oldest just turned 5. I’ve been praying for the last year on what I should do for his education. The Lord has taught me a lot and showing me I don’t have to school my children in the traditional sense. I am very grateful for your homeschool advice.
Excited for you...keep it simple and relax and enjoy and don't listen to the naysayers i promise they will work out just fine
Amy thank you so much. This video was for me and has really helped me.
Amy, this video was so good and I really appreciate it!! Thank you so much!
Welcome
Awesome video. This is how we home educate too. No stress, moving with life as it comes and learning along the way ❤
Thank you Amy for really clarifying what home schooling is all about. I am thinking about unschooling my granddaughter. I love how down to earth your thinking is. Will definitely look into home schooling. Thank you everyone for all of your inputs and I will give it a try. God Bless
Thank you thank you thank you , this was so motivating and uplifting . God bless you
This was exactly what I needed today! Been a blessing watching your videos... today I needed to hear this though. Thank you!
This was great Amy, sure many parents that teach will appreciate this!!!!!
thanks for the good info and advice--so true kids learn different ways and at different levels and timeline!!
I am helping my daughter homeschool my granddaughter and sometimes I feel like we are sorely lacking so thank you for the encouragement.
Welcome. You will do great
Brilliant video; very informative and truly puts my mind at ease. Thank you so much for sharing your insight. God bless you and your beautiful family 🙏
Welcome
Giiiiiirrrrrl I NEEDED to hear this today. Thank you!!!!
Welcome.
I needed exactly this!!! Thank you so much for sharing your wisdom. I already shared it with 3 friends
I'm glad to share
Thank you so much for this!! I needed to hear this today!
God bless you and your beautiful family ❤️
Welcome 😀
Yes! Great video!
Yes it does. I have a son who is almost 20 now. He has already finished one college degree and currently working on a civil engineering degree. He taught himself a lot of what he knows or found resources to learn what he needs to learn. He actually thanks me now for unschooling him and allowing him so much freedom in his learning because he isn’t nearly as stressed out as the other college students. I am currently unschooling my 12 almost 13 year old daughter and she is already taking about opening her own businesses. With an S. I love the freedom they have to learn their passions. But I feel any form of homeschooling is way better than traditional public school.
Love your videos! I’m a grown unschooler (38) and now an unschooling mom. Been having a great time sharing my story on Clubhouse helping newer homeschool parents. Getting ready to share more on my new TH-cam channel as well.
Excited for you! Keep sharing
Thank you for this video, such good timing! We've been struggling a bit and this was a good reminder for me that we may need to pivot in a different direction. We are feeling so far behind with the "school year" ending.
I agree on the homeschooling, we started homeschooling 3 years ago and it was so helpful. Love your home economics course! Thanks for sharing.
Meant to say agree on the unschooling. Crazy auto correct!
Welcome 😀 have a wonderful day
Thank you Amy My last child has learning issues and watching this has brought peace to my mind and I went through and simplified her day and work I love your curriculum. I've been struggling with science and history/ geography but I love your advise thanks a million!!!
Welcome
We went the comic book route with our son. He really didn't like reading until we brought those comic books home! Then, as he got older, he branched out to other books. He has great reading habits and reading comprehension now. He's 22 and a few months away from graduating college!
Love it
Hi Amy, I can't tell you how encouraging this video was to me (actually all of your homeschooling videos are). 😊 We are a travelling family 6 months of the year for my husband's work, would love your opinion on how you would do homeschooling in this situation. We don't need to do testing where I live. ❤️
I would do some real life learning..do workbooks if you need some structure;)
Amy, this video couldn’t have come at a better time! I truly needed to hear all of this! I need this reminder! Thank you so much! ❤️
I'm so glad. Have a wonderful day
Excellent advice.
Thanks for watching
Yep, I've homeschooled/slightly unschooled for about 3 years now through a charter. We get our curriculum (of our choosing, with a provided stipend) from Timberdoodle. We grasp it, get it done, move forward. It only takes 2 hours, tops, a day. Otherwise we learn life. No structure, per say, to speak of. My son is accelerated and the public schools in CA where we live could not accomodate him. Smart as a whip. No worries when schools closed, either.
Good Tuesday morning Amy! Always so nice to tune you in each day. Thanks for Psalm. Now my day begins! It is cloudy, rainy, hot and muggy, but I will find something easy to do today! Go with the flow! Thanks for today's message for those much younger than I am. Wish I had this back 55 or more years ago! What a difference it would have made. Prayers today for HOPE in my world!. Thank you! 💙🙏%¾ⅢⅥ∅∆Ⅺ so much to learn! 💙😄
Cloudy here too
Excellent video ! Allow your kiddos to lead in learning! Use Times Tales to learn multiplication! Seriously family reading times. Discussion during hikes and learning on those jungle gyms! Science proves how movement promotes learning!!
Great information!!!! I’ve shared your video with some younger mammas I know who are homeschooling.
Thanks so much
Good morning Amy
What an awesome video! I believe this time with you about homeschooling and ones children will benefit all very much. You put things in simple perspectives. My great niece and nephews, the babies are only one, go to school but I can see some of the benefits of homeschooling.
Thank you for sharing your experiences and knowledge. I think it was excellent.
Thank you for today’s Psalm.
Have a fantastic and blessed day.
Thanks Kathy..babies are growing up! Have a wonderful day 💖
Great video
Loved this video! Our state doesn’t require yearly testing. Do you have a website or resource for me to access standardized tests? Thank you 💕
I use shop christian liberty. .com. Cheapest
Amy, I agree with your ways of teaching, and the child’s learning. My son came home from school and he told me he failed math. I was like there is no way, math is his greatest subject! So what his teacher wanted him to do was show how he come up with his answers on his algebra and geometry paper. The teacher accused him of cheating 😮 NO he did not! Sean with math is one who looks at a math problem and see’s the answer in his head, then he writes it down. He can’t always write down how he got the answer, he just knows, sees it in his head. So I took myself to the school had a meeting with the teacher and higher up, explaining his situation..all was fine. So yes, every child is different! Sean now has his bachelors degree, now finishing his master’s. So different can achieve much! Don’t ever give up on your child, listen to their needs..it all works out!
If I were not a single parent when my kids were little, I would have homeschooled my kids for sure! I feel it throws out the window the kids feeling insecurity in schoolhouse learning.
Great subject to talk about Amy! I will share this video with Kylie my daughter, she talks about doing so with her kids..Soon KIDS!! She is due to give birth any day with my grandson Giovanni 🙃I’m so excited! I call it on Mother’s Day!
I'm so it excited for you too Mary !!!
We've done it all. Public, private academy and homeschool. Homeschooling was absolutely the most rewarding. Life became more fun. We could take off and go on adventures without sacrificing anything or being penalized because we missed a day behind a desk. My husband could be a part of it all because our lives fit his work schedule as well. Those were the days the best memories were made. I wouldn't have traded that time in our lives for the world!
Thank you for sharing. I have been wanting to “unschool” my children for a while now. I watched Knorpp and South discuss their journey and now yours. I cannot seem to get their dad on board. My son is dyslexic and learns more hands on and my daughter is “behind” in reading per standard numbers here in NC. I question the standards for a 7 year old. That may be the protective mama bear in me. I have noticed on virtual learning days letting them unschool seems to get them motivated. I let them go outside and figure out different ways to learn and let them suggest what they are interested in- I feel it’s so healthy to let them make decisions and think for themselves. We read together and do math together of course bc I do feel it’s very important to know how to do reading math etc... Thank you again for sharing and thank you for letting me get my thoughts out.
I'm praying for you..you enjoy them and keep looking for ways to have fun and learn while living life.
Love your common sense approach.
Very informative sister
Mind blown!
This has been a great video. In Ontario they have closed all schools because of the pandemic so when my grandson is with me I do schooling with him, and thanks to this video I now see I can let up a little and not make it a stressful day. Thank you for posting this...very helpful.. :)
Enjoy him
Great video and so helpful. This seems to be close to what we've been doing this last year. I would love to know the book you used for transcripts and turning life skills into elective courses. Thanks mama for your encouragement and helpful video!!!
It was called senior high..a home designed form,+u+la
@@amymaryon thank you so much! I just ordered it.
God Bless you and your family
What book did you use in figuring out/writing their transcripts?
Send me an email and I can give you a link luvinmy12@gmail.com
Thank you for sharing this. We have 4 little ones. We put our oldest in kindergarten this year and have been so unhappy and decided to homeschool. I was worried and a bit stressed over how were going to get this done. This helped me so much!
I'm glad to help
What test do you use for each child to check their progress and meet state requirements? Thank you so much for posting and sharing.
That depends on your state requirements. You’ll have to look it up in your area. I know that in Michigan(my home state) there are no requirements. In VA(currently reside) we have very basic requirements. We have to file a Notice of Intent at beginning of the year(unless you file Religious Exemption. At the end of the year you can use a couple different options for proof of progress. I have always used CAT, friends have used Iowa test and some use an evaluator. Just depends on the circumstances and choice of parent. Hope this helps you some.

Good morning to you all and your family Amy. Your an awesome person who cares about your family. I'm up early to get some laundry done. My family and friends like watching your vlogs everyday Amy. Your an amazing family who has been blessed with home schooling and helping your children learn so much. My nephew's and niece's are still in school. Some of them are going to graduate in June of this year 2021. Things are different from when I went to school and college. Have a good week with your family. Your very talented and passionate about teaching your children about different things in life. I'm in a lot of pain because I went to do errands and went out to exercise. I'm praying to God to feel better my feet are in so much pain and I took some medicine last night. I've been busy cooking for us. I never complained about anything because I know that God will heal us from the pain and fear. It's going to be a good day today. I've got to go and do another errand this morning. Keep up the good work with your family. Our family starts our lives in the morning and you inprire us everyday to get our chores done. We have an inspection for our apartments on May 17th 2021. I'm praying for good news on this day Amy. God bless you all. Thanks for sharing your beautiful family with us Amy. Hope that everyone stays safe and healthy. Enjoy the rest of your morning you all. Peace and Love to everyone. I'm asking for prayers for our family and friends please. 🥰😇😍🙂😀🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏💕💞💕💞💕💞💕💞🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌺🌷🌼🌻🌺🌹🌼🌻🌺🌹🌼🌻
Praying for you
@@amymaryon Thank you so much Amy and family also friends. I'm just helping my best friend who is in a wheelchair and homebound clean her apartment to. I'm been praying for everyone and my family and friends. Have a good day today. Your very positive and nice person Amy and family. I'm learning so much positive things from your family and you Amy. God bless you all. 🥰😇😍🙂😀🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🌺🌹🌷🌼🌻🌺🌹🌷🌼🌻🌺🌹🌷🌼🌻🌺🌹🌷🌼🌻🌺🌹🌷🌼🌻🌺
Great video! I know so many parents are so stressed right now. I sincerely hope that parents realize that homeschooling is an excellent choice. We have been homeschooling for 22 years. Homeschooling is a completely different experience than schoolroom experience. It’s a whole life, whole family experience! Unschooling does NOT mean no teaching or no learning. Also, it’s okay to wait until they are ready to learn concepts! Not cookie cutter method - real life is never cookie cutter. Also, each child may learn differently and you can customize it. Mommies out there don’t let the outside world stress you out. Join a homeschool group for activities for your kids and lots of friendships and support for you!
Love this
Thank you
I know the Lord must of put this on your heart to make this video because I needed to hear this
Makes me smile
thank u
Amy I agree with going with kids own pace,but what happens if they are mixing with other non home schooled kids that may be at a higher academic level? Could that affect their personal esteem?
We talk about that alot..as they are little and maybe not reading as well as other kids .but they know in time they will get it and point out all that they do know..kids usually just want to play together..not so much..how much smarter am i than you.. i have ones in my own home that a younger one is far better at certain subjects than another..they all know they have different strengths and will continue to learn ..don't let that be their focus and if it is..then they might be more apt to study harder in that area..hope this helps
Do you teach your kids a Home Economics class? I don’t think some school districts teach that anymore. I took in it when I was in school 21 years ago in Iowa. They also don’t teach cursive writing. I also got that in elementary.
You're right, many school districts across the country no longer have those things in their curriculum. I think those 2 things are important. So I definitely teach them to my homeschooled children. For cursive writing, I'm currently using, Handwriting Without Tears Cursive Handwriting. For part of home economics (or Family and Consumer Sciences as it is called in my state), I use the Today's Teen textbook and workbook. I'll also be using one of Amy's books on life skills.
I'm a really big fan of Amy's. So I know that she teaches her children these things as well. She even has a cursive writing resource that's available on Amazon as well as Life Skills (Home Economics) resources available there as well. As she says in this video, she also writes her own basic academic curriculum. You can find her curriculum for most grades on Amazon, too. You can also find all of the above on her blog, Plain and Not So Plain.
P.S. And of course my children learn home based life skills by seeing me cook, bake, clean, deep clean, and do laundry. They also help with those endeavors as well. I believe that financial literacy is also a life skill. So they help me with shopping and I discuss paying bills and saving money with them, too. In the future, we'll talk about credit, balancing checking accounts, debit and credit cards, investing money and APR as well.
I also think the hard back text need to come back. I was also taught by those.
@@nicolestangl6501 I still use them. I buy used textbooks on Amazon and Thriftbooks usually. I buy the new matching workbooks through the same websites.
Hi Amy, love your video, very interesting. I'm from lreland and little girl has autism so I have to sent her to school but wish I could teach her from home. She is 8 and can't read or write much. I just keep doing a bit ever say with her. She learns ture playing games. She's get there it will take time. 👍😊😉❤️
Hi Kathleen,
We have a family of 8 and we homeschool in Ireland. I'd love to encourage you if you ever consider homeschooling. We are in the Navan area.
-Brandie
I’m a former homeschool mama. My daughter wanted to go to school to be with her friends and my son was struggling with ADHD and Dyslexia. So she went into public school in 7th grade and he in 3rd. I have enjoyed them being in school. The teachers at our school have done so well with my son. Much better than I could. He needs the structure that comes with the school system. However, I enjoyed teaching in the younger years. I thought the video was really good even though we chose to put ours in school. Each family is different and there are pros and cons to both, homeschool or traditional school. ❤️
Yes everyone is different 😊 thanks for sharing
Good Morning and homeschool wish I had homeschooling went my boys were young
Tfs☺️
Would love you know if you would do things differently if there was no requirement to do the testing? Where we live we don't need to test just 'show progress'. Absolutely wonderful video! Thank you for sharing.❤️
Oh yes we would definitely do way different..Michigan where we lived didn't have requirements and we did things differently.
@@amymaryon Thank you for your reply! Would you do more of 'unschooling' and less book work?
Absolutely:)
Good Morning
Thank you so much for this. I am a qualified teacher in South Africa and I homeschool my kids and I still teach full-time. We have definitely taken this approach. We concentrate on Maths, English and Afrikaans(a second language). My son is 9 years old an he can do things that many men can't do. He is being trained by his dad how to paint how to change a tire, how tile and so on. He has learned skills to use in his own life. We are using your curriculum and we are using other books too. My kids do not want to go back to put public school.
Thank you for sharing
Yes kids learn at their own pace and i agree thats ok they will blossom when its time and expecially with things they are interesed in my daughter is like your girls loves bts and k pop she can tell me word for word in all their songs or move from move in their dances but ask her something else like speak irish etc she look at you like nop not hapening and we live in ireland but korean she can tell me lol and as for social media yes they are stuck into it all the time and it can be bad for them but if this last year has learnt us anything with lockdown its the only contact they had with outside the house so im all for let them off they will come out of it eventually lol have a blessed day amy
Love this thanks for sharing
Have your kids ever joined a co-op?
Yes my older ones did for a bit back in the day then it got to be too hard with all the younger ones..we may as life progresses
As a teacher, let me tell you, you are so RIGHT!!! I taught the same math to 5th graders and 11th graders! Teaching an inch deep and 12 miles wide each year causes the need for such repetition. My freshman year of college classes were things were the same things I learned in Junior High. I LOVED school. My youngest has a formal education that stopped in 8th grade due to severe depression caused by bullying. She is bright, intelligent, and passed the GED readiness course without taking the classes. I wish more people understood the need to teach children to think instead of who can be the best memorizer to pass a test.
Thank you for sharing this
By any chance do you remember the remedial books you used for English and math? Or the book how to pass the GED? I have searched for this entire "School year" for these very kinds of books. Our circumstances are a bit different. I also have 10 children we were in a church that was against formal teaching in any way... We are no longer in that church but my children are suffering the effects of this. We have asked the Lord to forgive us for trying to do what we thought was the best Godly way to bring up our children then. I desperately need to get my late teens caught up . Much weeping and prayer this past year. Most of the books I find are literally children's books with little child like sayings and pictures. My teens are ashamed enough but to have to use this is heart wrenching to see their faces... Any advise would be a blessing. Thank you!
Would you send me an email and i can send you the links ?
luvinmy12@gmail.com
@@amymaryon I sent the email Thank you!
Is there anyway that I could possibly get the links as well?
Send me an email luvinmy12@gmail.com
I think homeschooling is a wonderful fit for many. I also think that a good traditional school does better than many people think. We certainly don’t expect children to sit all the time and we keep the interests of our students in mind, all while trying to meet state guidelines. Most become teachers because they love children and they work hard to do what is best for them.
Do u work in a state adopting CRT? In Texas there's pornographic novels that detail incestuous scenarios, that are "mandatory" according to the activist teachers and school board and if the ( older ) teachers do not like the material they can quit. If they try to hide the books, by displaying in a not so prominent place on the shelf, they're in trouble for soft censorship. Principals have suggested showing parents 1 curriculum sample, while teaching something VERY different. School is becoming a scary place in alot of states. Leadership should not be so flippant as to change every aspect of citizen life as a new leader steps up. I can't stand politics and the divide, but in these cases its unavoidable to note degraded changes. Ive had problems with schools going back 14 years and its not getting better, rather exponentially degraded in quality and ethics.
@@americaneden3090 I’m recently retired. I will need to find out, I hope not.
Can I ask you what you do about family members who don't agree with your more relaxed approach? I used to be a teacher before we started homeschooling and we love unschooling and a relaxed Charlotte Mason (lots of books) approach. My parents are academics and they just don't agree with what we are doing. We see them often, so it is something that always causes conflict.
My children are so creative, we don't do screentime, so they play, learn and create all day. I love that they have so much freedom 💕
When you are secure in what you do...you do as the bible says..stand firm.....you can speak in love but at the end of the day they are your children and this is your chance to teach them ..If you have to have a nice conversation with them letting them know how you feel..than do so...but don't do it out of defense..do it out of genuine love and caring to have peace. Praying for you
My Unschooling friends have the coolest kids. Wish I had done it
Hlow goodmorning
Good morning
I am from philppines plss subscribed vlog thank you ❤❤❤
School is learning to learn. You may be able to learn the “facts” later, but you do them a disservice by not helping them learn how to learn.
Good Morning
Morning to you
