Thank you for highlighting how mentally fatigued homeschooling moms can get. I often forget to afford myself grace for the fact that homeschooling and/or being with children all day can cause mental fatigue.
Yes
I started doing the 6 week - 1 week off (that I call my "sabbath week") this year and it changed my life! On our week, we always take Saturdays off to go to church and we really disconnect, so I took that concept of the Sabbath and applied it in our school, it has been a blessing! I'm happy to hear someone else does too! We usually go out in our RV or I focus on things that I cannot possibly get done while Im homeschooling, it is the best thing ever! Thanks for the info, I taken some and will implement them in the next school year.
I live in one of the few highly regulated states for homeschool! It is a blessing for you and your family to not have to deal with the school system despite homeschooling. I wish my state would jump on board with that!
Thanks for all your great tips!
Wow! This is my 17th homeschool year and you inspired me! I love your quarterly check in system. Also love how you shared taking a break after 6 weeks of intensive school keeps you from burning out.
I can’t seem to take a spring break or it kills my motivation. I also love spring weather in Alabama but the summer is 🥵. I’d rather school in summer.
Thanks for all your videos!!! So encouraging!!
This has such helpful information, thank you so much!!
Love your videos!!! You are so inspiring 💗
That trip sounds AMAZING!!
I love the quarterly check list. What a great idea!
Girl you look beautiful and refreshed!
Thank you for sharing how you plan out the year! I like the check-in points paper you created!
This was a great schedule video really breaking it down!
I appreciated that you said at the 6 week mark you needed the break more than your kids. I think we oftentimes forget to think of ourselves and what we can handle while trying to handle it all.
This has been one of my very favorite videos you have made!!! So, so helpful!
Thank you so much for your videos like this Ashlee! You’ve worked this way for years and because of your videos I have the confidence to work my schedule similarly to yours. There is so much flexibility in this type of scheduling but still keeping the end goal in sight and achievable.
This was so awesome!!! Thanks for putting in needed breaks, definitely not my strong point, so good to plan them!
Thanks for sharing!!!
This was soooooo helpful. In the fall will be my first year homeschooling and this gave a me good flexible guidance.
We learn year around and ours started back in mid-June. This time I had the kiddos get involved in the scheduling (don't write down lesson numbers either). It was a lot of fun and went smoothly once we found a common ground. We map out a 3-month section at at a time and picked our weekly trips. Previously I would map out the year and then break things down. We'll see how this new prep works. Thank you for sharing how you schedule, very helpful tips. Especially no end date, we are doing that this time. Hope all is well!
We do pretty much the same but have a upcoming PCS to Fort Bliss this fall and will have to roll with it all until settled. We pretty much finish when our TGTB curriculum is done. Blessings to you!!!
I like what you said about the break at 6 weeks. We did preschool last year but it was very kid led rather than structured schedule. I will definitely take that into consideration when I’m planning.
Very helpful! Thank you! :) - Michelle
Thank you for this! We(little kids) just got started back, 2wks ago and are doing well. My high schoolers are starting back at the end of Aug. I wanted to start the littles back first, so we could already have our routine going, by the time the olders join in. It's easier for me, rather than start with all 6 (plus a 3.5yr old) starting at once. I LOVE the quarterly "worksheet"! That's such a great idea! Thanks for that! I'm going to do the same for our olders, so they can have a goal each quarter.
Great tip!
Hi I’m glad I found you channel. This is my first year homeschooling and your videos have been super helpful. Greetings from Texas.
I always worry if I am taking a break at the right time or if we should do more. Thanks for explaining how you do it!
Thx for going in so much detail
Thank you so much for your tips and guidance! I’ve been following for a few years now. You saved me from so much stress by telling us about not planning lessons. I tell every homeschool mom I know! It makes it so much easier! Thank you for all you do and the help you give so many homeschool parents. We started using TGTB last year and we are using them again this year for my fourth year of homeschooling! God bless you and yours! ❤️
Thank you for this!! We have a rising 8th grader, and three other kiddos, and I have been feeling stress like never before to just make sure we get her prepared for life and seal up this education the best way we can. I am encouraged. God bless you, Ashley.
Yup! We get back from a week of tent camping three days before we were planning to start school. I think I'm going to follow your example and give myself an extra week buffer! I want to start well...not tired and things all a mess! Thanks Ashlee!
Smart mama!
So excited to start my work day with this video!!
Thanks for being here
Love love this! As always, thanks for sharing! It really is so helpful!! Do you have a place you keep track of “field trips/traveling” for school purposes? Outside of your calendar.
I’m a first year homeschooler, this was very helpful, thank you!
Great minds think alike. I can identify with so many things you say.
I love your consistency, wisdom, and mindfulness. Blessings for the next school year.. we are pushing on to our year-end (we run from midJan-Nov and have our summer break in Dec). 💜
Thank you!
This was so helpful! I’ve been at it about as long as you have but I still gleaned quite a bit from you here- I’m totally going to print out a sheet like you did showing the quarters and where we should be as far as lessons and by approximately when- so thank you for that idea! And also I completely agree about the 6 week mark…I also usually take a week break if we haven’t had any particular reason to break before 6 weeks of solid school goes by. I think you’re right about mom probably needing the break more than the kids haha! Praying for another wonderful year for you! Thank you again for sharing and your encouragement!
It’s so helpful!
We do that also! Six weeks on, one week off 😊
Hello 👋🏾 I’m new here and just discovered your channel…thanks so much for these helpful tips.. this is my fist time homeschooling and I’m feeling lost on how and where to even start.😞 my daughter is going into 6th grade and she’s my only homeschooler…I’m going to check out your other videos to see if i can find guidance there.
You can do it!!! It's so worth it & it's actually fun homeschooling, in my opinion, because I have so thoroughly enjoyed learning side by side with my kids.
Love this! I just typed mine up too! Some of our lessons are by week though so I did that. But I also have BJU Spanish 1 for my 9th grader. I remember you saying you do double days.. how do you pick the ones to double? I’m assuming an exam day? Or review?
Thank you for sharing these tips. I was going to start after Labor Day, but I’m thinking of starting a week earlier. It’s our first year and I’m excited and ready to dive in. Not sure how our flow will go and I’m sure it will take a while before we figure everything out.
Have the best year! Year 1 is an adventure but you got it!
Please, please do a video on what curriculum you are using for your older kids😊 There is so little on homeschooling the older kiddos. Thanks!
Hey,
You must be new because I’ve done a video every year since my channel started on what my kids are using for that particular grade. Check the playlist, homeschool curriculum
I love the check in sheet idea! I’m always constantly calculating. 😅
It’s so hard on my brain lol
Here in our state of Missouri, because I don’t know what state you’re in, we are only required to make sure that our children have 1000 hours of schooling per year 600 of those hours need to be in the four core subjects which is really kind of cool cause it gives me a lot of room to play with extracurricular activities and other things as well. For instance this year we’re going focus heavily on geography and I also got some around the world snack boxes from Amazon I thought would would be really cool as the kids are eating treats from different countries that were going to learn about the world they were also going to do DNA and start on and his the project Built
My tablet bleeped out before I could finish lol anyways we’re doing a DNA kit and we’re going to do an ancestry project so that the kids can learn about their heritage and from where they belong and all about their ancestors
You look beautiful girl !
Thankyou!
Thank you for all the ideas!! Always refreshing to hear new ways that others organize their homeschools 😊
Question: If you don't finish all the lessons in a subject during a school year, do you continue it the next year before jumping into the next level? I guess it depends on the level of understanding, etc but just curious!
I would never end a year with unfinished lessons. Just my preference.❤️
What is your favorite planner?☺️ can’t find the video you mentioned this on.
I wish I didn't have to keep a planner, but my evaluator said that she needs to see 180 detailed. I don't know if it's my state requiring that (PA), or what, but it is annoying and very repetitive. I have high aspirations of being super organized, but in reality I am mostly just trying to keep my head above water homeschooling my 4 boys.
Check out Mystie Winkler. She is part of the schole podcast with Pam Barnhill and dawn garrett. They all have great approaches to planning and different reasons why they do it now. Mystie has great encouraging videos on TH-cam and focuses on homemaking organization and homeschooling as a ministry. I’ve been so encouraged and it helps with my perspective.
I just started homeschooling in PA. My 16, 15, 12, 10 year olds all started at different points during the year and I'm just so concerned about having everything in order. Especially since we had to do a lot of unschooling due to burnout from private school and grief. Hopefully, I'll get everything recorded properly 🙏
Every time your phone rings I think its mine, even though I always have mine on vibrate 😂
It’s so annoying! I always forget to put it on silent!
I e been meaning to ask, and maybe I missed it somewhere-what did your kids do for typing? I’m thinking TGTB? I have it, but think I just need to be more consistent about them using it. 🤦🏻♀️ did you use anything else at some point?
Can you link your planner
When you take a week break after 6-weeks, is there anything you have your kids keep doing like Bible study or morning basket?
Yes we always do Bible! And sometimes read aloud. But no more than that!
Random, but i like your arms lol 🙃
