In today's video, I am going to show you all the curriculum choices we made for our second-grade year of homeschool!

Below you will find any video's that we may already have a flip-through for. Also if you don't see it here please comment down below and I would be happy to do more flip-through videos for you!

*This Video is not intended for children*
In our homeschool we love books, reading aloud, and finding a curriculum that works for us.
We homeschool year-round while taking breaks when needed or wanted. We take a small summer break but summer homeschool is filled with gameschool, nature school, outdoor schooling, unschooling and lots of fun!
Homeschool is a different journey and path for every homeschool and we hope you enjoy following along in our journey and that something we share can be a help for you!

We use a number of different Evan Moor workbooks as well and really like them as just a little extra. Who Was Books - LOVE!!!! Song School Spanish is so much fun!

Looks so great! I always enjoy your videos! Glad you liked Lollipop Logic, we are going to be using it this upcoming year. We really enjoy Song School Spanish! My kids are young, but they are still able to grasp the basic things and we all end up singing the songs intentionally at times too! Haha

I'm really leaning to Primary Math for my second grader. Though I'm always intrigued by the Life of Fred books maybe just for fun.

@knowledgebynature8480 3 жыл бұрын

We are most definitely leaning towards Primary Math as well in our homeschool. LOF is SO much and she loves them and has really learned quite a good deal from them. I personally couldn't do just Life Of Fred, but love them as additional math fun!

Hi. Can you let me know why you like primary over dimensions? And do you know that a NEW primary is coming out next week? I’m torn between the 2 for my Kindergartener and 2nd grader. I love the layout of dimensions.

@knowledgebynature8480 3 жыл бұрын

Hello! For me personally Primary took the lead because as a teacher I do not have to modify the activities its already talking to me as a homeschool teacher. I also feel like Primary is clearer when it comes to student should know steps A, B, C before continuing on to D. With Dimensions I didny always feel there was a clear line on what needed mastered before going forward. Yes I have seen the new updated Primary, I've looked at it a little out of pure curiosity but I'm trying not to 👀 too much ad I dont want to have to make another math decision 🤣😂🤣 I hope that helps and honestly they are both outstanding programs and you cant go wrong with either one. I Agree the layout of Dimensions is smoother when compared to Primary. The new Primary is enticing also😀

Hi I’m just about to start to home schooling but I don’t know where to begin

@knowledgebynature8480 3 жыл бұрын

The first thing you will need to do is find out what your state/area requires from you. Once you know that figure out what subjects are a priority for you. Example reading, writing, math..start with the priorities and add in the rest as you go. If you try to do it all at the beginning it can be very overwhelming. KZfaq is a wealth of information for homeschooling, and every family is different. Try what sounds the best for you and change it if it doesnt work. Good luck!

Hello I’m new to home schooling(: just decided to start this year and I’m running out of time to submit an affidavit so I’m searching and searching. All of these books you’re showing us are from different “curriculums” right. I get a bit confused. As long as we cover each subject we should be okay right? I’m scratching my head right now haha.

@knowledgebynature8480 2 жыл бұрын

Yes all of my subjects are picked from different resources. I find the one I think works the best for our learning style. Each state has their own guidelines on what needs covered. Once you find that out as long as they dont require certain curriculum you should be able to purchase what you feel is necessary. As a 1st timer dont feel like you have to do it ALL, just start with your basics and add to it as you feel comfortable:) good luck ❤

Hey there! Are you able to tell me what the difference is between writing with ease and first language lessons

@knowledgebynature8480 3 ай бұрын

From Well Trained Mind First Language Lessons (FLL) and Writing with Ease (WWE) are designed to be used together, but you can mix and match with other curriculum. FLL covers grammar, punctuation, and mechanics; WWE covers writing skills - narration, dictation and copy work.

What is the difference in cutting out the letters to paste in or writing them, either way the page is used?

@knowledgebynature8480 Жыл бұрын

If you cut it out you are using the back sheet letters also. If cutting the letters cam only be used for either the front or the back but not both. I supposed we could have cut/paste one page and wrote on the second page. But cutting definitely takes one of the options away.

@@knowledgebynature8480 Sorry, I didn't see that they were write on top of each other. So odd they printed the page that way when they intended it to be cut out.
