Thank you! So glad you are here. If there is something you wish to have addressed, let me know. I tend to do a lot topics based off homeschool moms’ questions ☺️
I’m a new subscriber! I haven’t been able to finish this video but I appreciate what I’ve seen so far. Thank you for sharing! Watching you feels like we’re having a conversation and that’s pretty great!
Aw, that is so nice! Thank you! I'm humbled you have subscribed. I always answer comments and have gotten to know several homeschool moms through my channel. If you have questions, please let me know. I also do a lot of videos suggested by viewers so input really generates what videos I do. Thanks for being here!
I’m glad u found it, and thanks! I post the premier notification every Sunday so people know what is coming and the video is live every Monday at noon. U can turn on notifications if u like but I generally get overwhelmed by that feature if I turn it on.
The History Hops that you’re describing are from History Quest (Pandia Press). Curiosity Chronicles is the other widely used history curriculum. We’ve used both and preferred CC because it’s more in depth and more “serious” for lack of a better word. We LOVE the way CC is so inclusive and very good about telling history beyond Western culture.
No worries! I just happened to know that one! I love your book reviews. “There’s nothing in there for teenagers.” 😂 Perfect! I wrote down the Mitali Perkins novel for my daughter for next year too - we read Rickshaw Girl (also by Perkins) when she was in 1st or 2nd grade, and we both loved it, and my son and I enjoyed Bamboo People when he was in 5th/6th grade. Mitali Perkins is a fabulous author!
@ I don’t remember how I found Monsoon Summer but I am so glad I gave the book a try. It is so interesting and takes you out of your world. I should look up Rikshaw Girl.
Great video! I’m always amazed at how many ideas you’re able to juggle in future planning and the amount of literature you get through! My brain doesn’t move that fast 🤣
Would love to see your 100 list if you are planning to make a video! I always enjoy your thoughts on literature. I think I watched your 4th and 5th literature plan a few times and they were so good!❤
I will do that soon! It will change over time but it’s nice to make a list and have it to refer to. I have 2 lists: the one I pull from and the list I am keeping to track the literature we have done. I am starting one for non-fiction but that will be far more in tune with Morgan’s preferences and can be weighted heavily towards her likes.
@ @ thank you so much, I am so looking forward to that! Would you mind also recommending some books for lower grades or what you’ve picked for read aloud to Morgan before she was homeschooled? I am really curious on what you did before 4th grade too.
@ that one sounds interesting. I’ll have to think about how to do that. I do have a couple good boxes of books we kept because we love them. Morg’s reading history before homeschool was spotty because reading was difficult for her. Let me think on it! 😊
@@carahins1674 It was the same for me and George Elliot. And in my video that is airing tomorrow, I talk about my S.E. Hinton error when I cover books! How many others, I wonder, don't know her? Apparently, her editor wanted her to hide her female names with initials so male reviewers would give her book about boys a fair shake. Now THIS is something I would have wanted to know as a girl and student! I learned it at the age of 52. At least my kid learned it at 10. But you know something? And I should have mentioned this in one of my videos: It may be a fantastic idea NOT to reveal it to anyone reading the novel and then spring it on them -- or let them discover it while researching for a paper -- that the author is a woman. Because the look on my daughter's face was worth my own mistake of not researching the author deeply beforehand. She really sat there and thought about it. A lot was going on in her head after I told her the Hinton truth. Thank you for commenting!
@@ThePattersonHomeschoolAcademy Oh, I think that is brilliant! The surprise is really something! Thanks so much for being in the space. As a homeschooling mother of four young girls (7 and under), your content is really inspiring!
I think that might be my next video this coming Monday! A few people are interested in the list. I’m developing one for non-fiction as well. The list will change over time but I want something to pick from as we go and I want to have a check list or a ‘completion of classics’ list so I always have a direction and guide.
I’m new subscriber here! I love the content, French and all. Keep the updates coming.

Thanks for clarifying. I couldn’t come up with the name when I was on camera!

I need to start keeping serious notes. I better dust off my Cornell note taking skills!

SE Hinton is a woman 😉 she wrote The Outsiders when she was only 16. Just an awesome tidbit to share with Morgan for ya!
Oh shoot! I make all kinds of strange mistakes, don’t I??? Thank u so much ☺️
@@ThePattersonHomeschoolAcademy dont we all!
I came here to say the same thing. I didn't learn this until I was teaching the book to middle schoolers as an adult!
