    We love Campfire Curriculums! We are about to start the Titanic unit.

    I love this fun Friday perspective!! Campfire Curriculums has been a game changer in our home. The amount my children have retained is incredible.

    We discovered campfire curriculum last year. The the square foot gardening and are now into the veterinarian unit. Love both. We are doing it also just once a week on Fridays

    My 9 year old boy is VERY into the Titanic! I was actually looking into this unit last week as an elective option with my boys, so thank you! Your video solidified the idea that this would would be a great fit! Love that there is a QR code to help parents with accessing videos. If you have time, I’d love a little follow up review in one of your updates on how you all liked this unit after you’re finished. :) thanks Ashlee!!

    Been doing FUN Friday's for years. It's a great blessing to our year. We have a light day, directed learning and electives.

    Thanks for sharing this curriculum. I checked it out and loving it. This will be a great addition to our homeschooling that my husband can do on his daddy day. We take one day a week, Wednesday, for our children to spend a day just doing their reading and having hands on skills day with my husband. This way he has a part in homeschooling and I get a day to do the many things on the homestead.
    Thanks so much Ashley! Linda

    We’ve been using these units for over a year now and have enjoyed them! My middle schooler is using one as an elective this year and we have a few others we are using along with out core curriculum. They are great for teaching co-op classes too!

    We get one day during the school days as a our "flex day." It's flexible for projects, field trips, library, whatever we might want to fit into the week that isn't part of our typical school day.

    Campfire curriculums is great! A few years ago I studied Advent with my boys. Now my 7th grader is enjoying Volcanology. I plan on purchasing more in the future. Just enough without being overwhelming.

    We made this change to our homeschool last year and it was truly the best thing we ever did! We use Gather Round units, so it was so much fun to reserve that day for fun activities or crafts to go along with our unit, field trips, movies or documentaries, or just a "catch up day"!

    We love Campfire Curriculum because it is Veteran Owned and we believe in their statement of faith. Their Military Unit is very well done ( would you expect anything less than that, no) We also enjoyed Through the eyes of a Veterinarian.

    I’m so glad you found this company. I’m using it for highschool also and just did a super in depth look into the natural medicine one on my page. I’m loving the core connections! I’m loving all of the faith talks. I love that you can use it all and go all in or just skim the surface. You’re right, this stuff is so awesome. I’m also planning on doing the veterinarian one, the bee keeper, maybe the gardening one, and definitely the military one this year. I’m totally sold on their philosophy.

    @jaimep6865 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Yes! We did this exact thing this year. Fridays if we don’t have co op we do at least math and LA that’s it. If we miss another day during the week we may exchange it with Friday. Most of my high schooler work can be condensed into 4 days. It makes such a difference.

    • @homeschoolingthroughhighschool
      @homeschoolingthroughhighschool 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      We kinda do a “fun” Friday in our tween/teen homeschool day. We twist up the subjects a bit (safety unit, life skills,etc.) like she mentioned in this video for about 45 minutes so it doesn’t hinder the rest of the day. All my kids enjoy the Friday subjects.

    We love Campfire Curriculums, too. The last few years we enjoyed many different units that we worked on 1x a week as a family. This year, it just wasn’t in our budget, so for the time being we are schooling four days a week and taking the fifth day as a day of rest so we don’t get burned out. At least until more units are in the budget.

I have littles and that’s the one day a week we lay off of book work to do review & do cool projects, art, library trips, a fun breakfast (that has included sprinkles- all the fun), etc! I’m looking forward to what ideas you may give out and I find it a little note from God that we just had our first fun Friday last Friday and now you’re sharing this message! I bet you may wish you did whatever you’re doing sooner, huh?! Lol
