Great tips! We have homeschooled ours through high school. We have participated in several co-ops. Right now we are in a music/drama group, and a science partnership. The people that we would call our village has changed over the years. Friends will come and go, the best advice I could give is to be flexible.

Co-op, interesting. I never considered or knew there was such an option, but I guess it makes sense. Homeschooling always seemed like a such a lonely venture to the uninitiated.

I love the classical method and I want to incorporate Christ in the mix of madness lol Thank you so much for sharing!!

@HeatherTorresTV 6 жыл бұрын

Oh I feel ya on that one. I just say really pray through your choices and remember WHY you started to homeschool. The curriculum doesn't teach them - you do. You are the core and if you are stressed out and uncomfortable - they will see it and not associate homeschool with something that's fun or enjoyable. It may take a few years to figure out what works for your family.

While it's not a requirement for Indiana I want to start this year as a "trial" year homeschooling him with a preschool curriculum. I taught preschool so I'm familiar. However I would love to get in contact with moms who homeschool in my area. We live in Noblesville Indiana. So any mommas out there who are around the area, I'd love to pick your brain! -- Thanks again!

New Sub! I recently moved to a new state and I hate my sons school and I hate the way they do things here. I have the worst anxiety ever dealing with everything. he is only 5 in kindergarten so maybe I have to get use to the whole school thing. I'm so uncomfortable not being able to personally communicate with his teacher(only app messages). I literally cried the first week he started school here because I wasn't allowed to get to know his teacher or his school and they just made me seem weird for wanting to see how his first day was since we moved down here a month after school started here. The teacher doesnt have an assistant to help and Im finding myself teaching him anyway so Why not home school

Hi I'm new to homeschooling and appreciate all the tips. I'm a bit daunted by all the info but am keeping my eye on the prize. I'm interested in any help you can send my way/offered in the video. First thing, I've bought curriculum I'm not sure is right for us, would love feed back or other suggestions (but REALLY don't want to not use what I bought). Also wondering what homeschool moms do for work, as that piece is also getting sorted out for me at this time.

This was sooooo helpful. You simplified this very daunting image I had of homeschooling, putting the pieces of the puzzle together. For the first year, I would like to use a typical public school curriculum because it's what I grew up with and what I know. From there I can expand, but I need this as a base. Any suggestions for a curriculum that is simple, straight forward, and affordable? Thank you!

@@HeatherTorresTV Do you have any suggestions for a simple basic curriculum for 1st grade and kindergarten

@HeatherTorresTV 5 жыл бұрын

Yes - I recommend FunSchooling books for Kinders. They are really easy to work with and they are child led learning.
