Can you show a video on how you incorporate both math programs? I would love to see that!

Please do an update on the Build Your Own Library 0. It looks very interesting. I have not heard of this one.

@gbcflower 2 ай бұрын

I agree. I am very interested in hearing how this curriculum goes and perhaps a final review at the end.

We love Build Your Library! We are about to wrap up week 5 with my kindergartener and my soon to be tag along prek kid. So far my son really enjoys many of the Spines. His favorite so far is the Children just like me book and he loves the map keys in the atlas book. He’s a facts guy. I’m doing my best to do all the crafts but honestly that’s been the best part. I am not a crafty person but I’m surprised how much we are getting into it. So many rabbit trails. We needed something like this. I’d love an update video in the future to see how it went for you ❤

You found some great picks! I def have to check out that what you're using for world history.

That was so helpful, I’m also in Georgia and this year I’ll have a first grader. I’m super excited and a bit apprehensive for all the extra load now that I’ll have two students doing all the subjects. Thanks!! You motivate me so much!

Great picks!!!! You can totally combine the Sonlight science days- sometimes we do the whole week in one day :D

@HoneyRockHomeschool 3 ай бұрын

Love your videos! But quick question, how do you juggle the use of two math curriculums? Do you alternate every other day or week? Or do you do two lessons daily? I’ve always wanted to use two maths but I’m not sure how I can juggle them especially since I’m homeschooling 3 different grades plus now a preschooler.

@emilywade3350 3 ай бұрын

Love your videos! I had a few questions. I am looking into several spelling programs and wondered- what made you choose a different spelling program than the all about spelling since you are doing all about reading? Is Explode the code considered a second curriculum for phonics? Is it hard for her to go between two?

@rewise73 3 ай бұрын

This is so encouraging! I have planned to do both math with confidence and math u see with my incoming first grader, it’s so neat to see another family doing those together!

Thanks for the great video! I will be looking into Sonlight Science and Melanated Tales!

Thanks for the look at your curriculum picks. Nice selection. I do have a question, where did you get that wooden book rack with the baskets that sits in the back? I have been looking at something similar but all the ones like that I see are plastic. I would much rather have something like that. Thanks again for the look at these. It is always helpful seeing these and getting ideas.

Totally agree about BFB! We initially got the books for that and will still read them, but we are using The Waldock Way’s Travel Around the World to dive deeper. BYL looks great too!

Could you do a video showing us how you pack everything into a week of planning ? That would be helpful 😃

Could you possibly do a video on the sonlight science curriculum? I’m very interested but can’t find much out there and totally trust your opinions. Thank you!

@AutumnRomano 3 ай бұрын

Hi! We also use a curriculum that has the Smithsonian Children's Atlas as a spine. That may work great for your family and I hope it does! I also added the Our World in Pictures: Countries of the World into our curriculum to fill in gaps that I noticed in The Children's Atlas. For example, the Children's Atlas only provides information for the Democratic Republic of Congo in Africa, whereas Countries of the world provides information for the DRC and Congo since they are two separate countries. Neither book is perfect, but they work well together!

As you know, we did 1st Grade MWC alongside MUS Alpha and we loved it. BYL Level 0 looks really cool! So many beautiful books!

I was just looking at Sonlight K for my children! Could you possibly talk more into depth about it or a flip through? There isn't a whole lot on KZfaq!

@Noeysearles 3 ай бұрын

We used BYL 0 this year in k. We moderately liked it, but it wasn't the best. Hopefully you like it better. We did add a lot of KZfaq videos. There are great traveling kids videos, as well as kids trying food from different cultures. My son enjoyed those.

I would love to learn more about Build Your Own Library. I am trying to think about how I want to approach history with my younger two and all I know is I want it to be very literature heavy.

How do you schedule 2 maths, especially interested in 1st grade. Do you do both every day? Do you do a whole week of mwc plus a week of mathusee in the same week or do you spread things out over the summer?

@nicolcacola 3 ай бұрын

Totally forgot about Explore the Code. I agree, it's simplistic but amazing at reinforcing concepts. 🎉

@HerChildrenCallHerBlessed 3 ай бұрын

For Science K you can buy the videos by themselves, my kiddos love them! They were a great addition. And show you how to do all the experiments. And totally doable for 2 days a week by combining lessons.

Hello Brittany for the handwriting course Handwriting without tears did you also purchase the teacher’s guide or just bought the student workbook? Thank you😊

Did you ever consider using "story of the world" curriculum for history? I'm trying to consider it because my local library has it in stock, which means I could do 4 years of history for free, but not sure if the content is rich/rigorous enough. 🤔🤷‍♀️ What would you do?

@brittanyolga 2 ай бұрын

Build your library actually uses Story of the world in the later years. I think that is a great option especially since you already have access to it 😍
