My favorite subject to teach this year has been Guest Hollow's Botany curriculum. When my high schooler picked botany as an elective, I had no idea what to do. I could have made up something myself but most suggestions I found online were either for lower grades or college classes. Nothing in-between. Guest Hollow to the rescue! It was a little daunting at first, but once we figured out the smorgasbord approach, it went smoothly. And we are both learning so much! There's no workbook for botany, but my kiddo likes to discuss what they've learned and does a "Plant of the Week" writeup. It's been a great class for both of us.
My oldest LOVES the botany course too! It was a perfect choice since she's in the "plant obsessed" stage where every inch of her room has a plant on it. Since I do a lot of gardening, it's been wonderful to have her work alongside with me and putting what's she's learning into practice.
@@mypracticallyimperfectlife We're just about to start some tomatoes and ground cherries indoors so we can plant them this spring. I love that we're just building on something I was already planning on doing, like a free built-in lab course 😄
Oh my goodness, now you're tempting me! This is the one I REALLY wanted to do this year, but I was outvoted by our co-op, so we're doing the physics one instead. Aw, man!
What a great overview! I'm already a GH junkie/groupie whatever you want to call it, and our family has completed 3 courses so far and working on a 4th. Looking forward to using this for my daughter but ALSO for me. My favorite subject to teach is any that I can learn alongside them!
My favorite subject to teach is history... my son loves, loves videos so I'm constantly looking for videos and fun activities to add to our high school curriculums. Thank so you so much for your review - and I love that you are targeting high schoolers - this is an area that isn't represented much in the youtube world! :)
Thanks for watching! The limited number of channels focusing on the high school years was my motivation to start this channel. I love that we are continuing to homeschool through high school but it’s definitely different from when they were little!
I love teaching (and learning) history with my teens. I will be adding this GH government course - thanks for reviewing it as I wasn’t even aware of it!
I just purchased our first Guest Hollow course over the weekend and we're diving in. This looks like a great fit for my son. I'll definitely be looking at adding it. Thanks for the detailed review!
Great review!!! We love several of their courses and I just bought this one. My favorite subject to teach is history, probably because I don’t remember any of it from school so I’m learning right along with them.
You are so awesome! Thanks for sharing. I love hearing about Guest Hollow they are like a little secret in the HS community 😊. My favorite subject to teach right now is phonics and reading. My kids are still young.
My favorite subject to teach is Guest Hollow Geography. We have enjoyed learning so many more details about countries and cultures around the world than I did in High School!
I’m enjoying that course this year too! I love that it goes far beyond just a few basic facts about each country and really helps my son (and me) learn about the cultures in depth.
What a great review! I’ll be honest and say I don’t have a favorite subject to teach because we have just started homeschooling. This looks like a great choice and covers a lot of things my 10th grader needs.
Hi! Kayla! I love Guest Hollow and am so excited! We love history and Literature the best! Thank you for your generous spirit and your wonderful review!
I have found that my favorite subject to teach is history, even though I greatly disliked it when I myself was in school. I love being able to incorporate foods with history, which is something my public school never did, and using Guest Hollow makes it easy!
Thank you for sharing this! I totally purchased it before your video was even done.😊 I most like reading aloud beautiful books with my kiddos and going in rabbit trails of learning but history tends to be an area I really enjoy teaching them.
I discovered GH Kitchen Chemistry this year, and it has been a game changer. I've been looking for a sold personal finance curriculum that embedded economics (and not just budgeting) and this is it! I just bought the curriculum for next year and can't wait to get started with it. My son is excited already.
My favorite subject to teach is history. I bought the Government and Economics this morning. I have been anxiously awaiting it becoming available. We have used Guest Hollow for a long time and love their curriculum.
I love teaching my students to be excited, curious, to explore, and to ask questions and think deeper. This method can be applied to any subject. Games, field trips, living books, conversation and hands on activities all help. I love teaching hands on science and using logic puzzles and games.
Right now my favorite subject is teaching my kindergartener to read! It’s just so wonderful to see their eyes light up as it clicks and a whole new world opens up to them. Beyond that I am enjoying my 8th graders history and the depth of the information beyond what I had learned.
So excited to start GH this coming year with my 9th grader. I wish I had found it earlier! (I have an upcoming 11th grader too- I think this course will be perfect!)
Hi! My favorite subject in our homeschooling journey has always been history and we love Guest Hollow and BYL curriculum. So excited to discover your channel!
My favorite subject to teach is probably learning to read, for as much as it can be mundane at times and a challenge at others, it is so rewarding and with each child that learns how to as well as the VALUE & ❤ of reading I feel like I have set them p for success! My oldest is now in middle school and we are so thankful for channels like yours that are guiding us towards great resources for older students, this one is definitely being added to my list….do you think 8th/9th grade is too soon to try it?
I recently bought their Chemistry in the Kitchen and we are so excited to try it next year for my 9th grader. Then this popped up! I'm so interested in this. Thank you for sharing! I love to teach history and Bible. 😊
Oooh chemistry in the kitchen is on my list for next year with my son! He loves anything to do with cooking (and I love chemistry) so it seemed like a perfect choice.
@@mypracticallyimperfectlife Yes, it looks like so much fun. My son is not mathy either, so it feels like a perfect fit for us as well. I just bought the GEPF from Guest Hollow based on your recommendation and how can anyone pass up the discount? :) I will plan to use it for my son's 10th grade year. Looks amazing!
Hi, Abby! I'm so excited to find your channel. I have a middle schooler who is homeschooling. She is very interested in US government, civics, economics, American history, etc. Love that the Latin root is included in some of the vocabulary cards as we are really focusing on root words for vocabulary and how the English language is impacted by Latin and Greek.
I was excited to see that they included Latin roots as well! It greatly helps with learning vocabulary and was something I hadn’t seen in other curriculum programs
I love teaching most subjects, but history is probably my very favorite to teach all my kiddos! Thanks for the review/intro to this new curriculum. I am so excited to try it out!
My favorite subject to teach in our homeschool is math. I love being able to see my boys gain confidence in their math abilities, it is very rewarding!! Big time Guest Hollow fan. Currently using their physics & just purchased the Government this morning! Can't wait for next year! #GuestHollow
My favorite subject to teach is history, which I am not sure I appreciated all that much as a homeschooled teen 😂. We are using GH World Geography and Actions & Reactions next year, and I am so excited. I am planning to use this new curriculum at some point also. Thanks so much for the grading suggestions!
My favorite subject to teach is History and Geography! My 8th grader is currently doing the HS Geography course and I am looking forward to adding the new course for next year. I'm especially excited for the Personal Finance portion of the course. So important!
I love teaching history! It's my daughter's favorite subject. Besides our regular history lessons, our family loves to share historical tidbits that we find in our reading or watching.
Really appreciate your channel! Just came across it today, and have binge watched several videos already. :D I've really enjoyed teaching language arts, and history. So many things that I feel like I'm re-learning, since it's been so long since I've been in school. Although, when the kids are enjoying something I'm enjoying it, cause when they're not I'm definitely not! >.
History is my favorite subject to teach because I learn so much that I didn't in school! Growing up I always thought history was boring and unnecessary. I am so thankful that I am able to foster a love of history for my daughter!
My favorite subjects to teach are history and math, I can't choose just one. I recently learned of Guest Hollow, bought their highschool Geography during the January sale, and I'm really debating buying this with the sale price too! Their curriculum looks so fun and I'm excited to use it next year with my rising 9th grader. He's my oldest of 4, I'm looking to using it for many years! (My 9 year old hijacked my TH-cam account, hence his face as the profile and I'm sure there's a ridiculous name attached to the account too.)🤦♀️
My favorite subject to teach is ALSO History, which seems to be the consensus here. I have never seen such a fabulous Government and Economics course -- I wish this was around a couple of years ago for my oldest who is a freshman in college! I'm excited to have my other two work with this. :)
My favorite to teach is history (and government), which seems to be a common theme in these comments. My son is doing Guest Hollows anatomy next year. I did some tweaking and combined the high school and middle school levels. I’m very excited about that. I’m eyeing their other sciences and planning on the geography for sure. I want to do that course for myself. This new course also made my “give that a try” list.
The geography course has been so interesting this year (my 9th grader is working on it now). I follow the reading assignments along with them because there’s so much I never knew about these countries.
I was the lucky first official buyer last night! I’m so excited to use it but that won’t be until 24/25 school year. I bought it knowing it was going to be used and couldn’t pass up the great price!
I never loved history growing up, but I love it now as an adult. I look forward to teaching my daughter it when she's a little older. My favorite subject to teach right now is math using manipulatives.
My favorite subject to teach is anatomy and physiology! I just recently discovered your channel, and have binged watched almost all of your videos. 😂 Thank you for doing videos on homeschooling high school! So needed here on TH-cam!

Beth: I really enjoy teaching teaching history, and LA which is why we've enjoyed Guest Hollow's history curriculum. This new class very much intrigued me as well. Thanks for helping making high school easier!
My favorite subjects to teach are Bible and History. Thanks for introducing me to GuestHollow. I was looking for a good Geography curriculum and came across one of your videos. Now I'm a big fan of the company.
That’s awesome! After doing so many “standard” courses over the years, it definitely is great having such immersive courses to do with the kids. I also highly recommend botany if you have any plant lovers- my daughter and I are having a blast with that one this year too
My favorite subject to teach is history - but we enjoy any subject taught with living books. We've used quite a few GH options through the years and as we wind down our very long homeschooling career, I will still keep tabs on what they are doing and will encourage my children to use them when they homeschool!
If you contact me via email at mypracticallyimperfectlife@gmail.com with your shipping email, I'll send the books you've won your way this week. Thanks for again for watching!
My favorite subject to teach is the one that my kids are enjoying the most at the time :D Mostly, we love read alouds, my adult kids still love to listen to me read :)
Favorite subjects to teach in my homeschool is history and language arts!! I have 2 lol. Never want to have to teach science or math! Thankfully I outsource those with supercharged science for my youngest, shormann for my oldest, and teaching textbooks 😆
We love history. American history is very fascinating. My son was asking to learn more about the constitution so this curriculum might be the solution.
Thank you for a thorough review. I like that. My favorite to teach is either History or Math, which is quite a joke because I was a D Math student. 😂 I think Math has true answers and is satisfying to teach and see the results.
I’ve purchased Whirlwind World History for next year, BUT I’ll be doing flip thru videos for all the GH programs over the next few months in partnership with them. So definitely keep checking back!
History and Science are a tie for favorite in our homeschool but that is because I really try to incorporate videos, hands on activities/experiments and other elements that make those subjects more fun
The Guest Hollow program’s definitely make it easy to have those hands on components! I’m a huge fan of incorporating labs in science too. My teens say it helps them understand the concepts so much better.

Great review! I have really been enjoying teaching Shakespeare with our small group of friends who meet at our house each week. It's been a lot of fun! (though reading Julius Caesar doesn't seem to be keeping their interest as well as Taming of the Shrew did! :( )
Hi! Thank you so much for this giveaway and for your high school content❤. My favorite subject to teach is history. The Charlotte Mason Method has really made teaching this subject an enjoyable experience for my family and I.
The online textbook largely covers government, but yes it does have recommendations for books to get and use on different weeks. Like many literature based courses, it will use these additional resources to give your students a full understanding of the subjects (gov, econ, and finance). While I choose to purchase the books in advance, many are available at local libraries, used bookstores, and even on Audible. You don't need to have EVERY book recommended, but my student has really enjoyed many of the ones she has read this year.
With how much it teaches on economics and personal finance, I would say yes. Your student can still earn a full credit for each of those easily. You could just skip the portions and books that are specific to US government. There are some Govt books though that I think are great for everyone- Slanted is one of them (how the media has affected our thinking on political matters and policy) and Are You Liberal, Conservative or Confused? is another great one. They also have recommended books that deal with logic and politics, one on free speech and even some dystopian novels
I believe I heard you say, in one of your update videos, that you may be spreading this out over two years. Would you share how you plan on putting this on the transcript of you do that? Thank you!
We are on track right now to complete this all in one year (there’s a history course my son is doing that is the one taking us longer). Right now I have this one my daughter’s transcript as 1 credit Government, 1 credit Economics, 1 credit Advanced Personal Finance and 1/2 credit Logic.
I’m planning on giving a half credit (one semester credit) for each of the 3 parts. So half credit in government, half credit Econ and half credit personal finance.
Hi, you might have said tgis and i missed it but: how do you put this on their transcript/how do you do the credits for this class since it sounds like it is 3 full subjects....
@@mypracticallyimperfectlife , we need a 1/2 credit for all 3. How much of the schedule are you having to do to achieve all 3 credits? A half credit here is roughly 75 hours.
I really love teaching geography (thanks to Guest Hollow), but also History. Can’t wait to use more Guest Hollow curriculum as my kids get older!

Great review! I have really been enjoying teaching Shakespeare with our small group of friends who meet at our house each week. It's been a lot of fun! (though reading Julius Caesar doesn't seem to be keeping their interest as well as Taming of the Shrew did! :( )
That is awesome!
I would love to see how you plan and schedule this course for your daughter.
My favorite subject to teach is literature! Anything having to do with books :)
Hi! Thank you so much for this giveaway and for your high school content❤. My favorite subject to teach is history. The Charlotte Mason Method has really made teaching this subject an enjoyable experience for my family and I.
We love science and history here. But when my kid gets older I’m excited to teach business and finance courses 😀
Hmm favorite subject is a little difficult to choose but it's either bible, history/geography, or literature
Maybe a strange request, but will you link the Cinch machine you have referred to several times? 😊

Would this be appropriate for a 9th grader? I was thinking of doing government this year with him because it's an election year.
You could definitely use it with a 9th grader. Some of the extra books may be more difficult reads but they make for great conversation.
Mmmm so you have yo purchase extras (books) after getting the curriculum? ☹️
The online textbook largely covers government, but yes it does have recommendations for books to get and use on different weeks. Like many literature based courses, it will use these additional resources to give your students a full understanding of the subjects (gov, econ, and finance). While I choose to purchase the books in advance, many are available at local libraries, used bookstores, and even on Audible. You don't need to have EVERY book recommended, but my student has really enjoyed many of the ones she has read this year.
My favorite subject to teach is history.
I live in Canada, so I imagine the government portion won’t be as applicable to my high schooler - would you still recommend this?
With how much it teaches on economics and personal finance, I would say yes. Your student can still earn a full credit for each of those easily. You could just skip the portions and books that are specific to US government. There are some Govt books though that I think are great for everyone- Slanted is one of them (how the media has affected our thinking on political matters and policy) and Are You Liberal, Conservative or Confused? is another great one. They also have recommended books that deal with logic and politics, one on free speech and even some dystopian novels
My favorite subject to teach is language arts
I believe I heard you say, in one of your update videos, that you may be spreading this out over two years. Would you share how you plan on putting this on the transcript of you do that? Thank you!
We are on track right now to complete this all in one year (there’s a history course my son is doing that is the one taking us longer). Right now I have this one my daughter’s transcript as 1 credit Government, 1 credit Economics, 1 credit Advanced Personal Finance and 1/2 credit Logic.
@@mypracticallyimperfectlife thank you!
Is the textbook only online or is there a printable option?
The textbook portion is online only
@@mypracticallyimperfectlife thank you!
The government portion of the course has an online spine/textbook. The Economics and Personal Finance portions use other books as their spines.
Hi - I might have missed it in your video - but how many credits would you recommend for this course?
I’m planning on giving a half credit (one semester credit) for each of the 3 parts. So half credit in government, half credit Econ and half credit personal finance.
Hi, you might have said tgis and i missed it but: how do you put this on their transcript/how do you do the credits for this class since it sounds like it is 3 full subjects....
It does really cover all 3 subjects fully. So my plan is to put it in as 1/2 credit (1 semester each) for Economics, Government and Personal Finance
@@mypracticallyimperfectlife , we need a 1/2 credit for all 3. How much of the schedule are you having to do to achieve all 3 credits? A half credit here is roughly 75 hours.
I thought I had answered before...but I like to teach math til high school. 😂
